Can anyone tell me when sleeping on your side if your head slides back into the center of the pillow and if it does- does it affect your neck pain?

For those saying their head slides back into the middle when sleeping on their side, perhaps they need the softer version or the smaller version of this pillow. I've had this pillow for 5 or so years now and am planning to replace it with the same. My chiropractor had these in his office and offered a free trial. It does take a little bit of adjustment/getting used to, but waking up with a blazing headache has practically ceased. I used to wake up with them two to three days per week and now if I'm unlucky, once per month. For me, this pillow has been a godsend.

is this pillow so firm that when sleeping on your side your ear begins to throb?

Yes. The support is very good, and firm. However, as a side sleeper, yes this pillow causes ear pain. And, for me I started to develop something like callous on the center of the outer part of my ears. The skin became very irritated and started to peel. That went on for nearly a year. I kept using the pillow because it provided very good support and let me sleep well, better than other cervical pillows I have used. Eventually I became used to the ear problem, and now I rarely get irritation. The maker of this pillow really needs to address the irritation problem. I think that a softer thin layer over the firm support material could help, by allowing the ear to rest into a softer thin layer, while the firmer support does it's job. I've had this pillow since 2018. I want a new pillow. I am looking at other newer pillows that may not irritate my ears.

how long do they last?

Not sure how long they last yet. I've only had it for about a month. It seems to be very well made, and I expect it to last at least as long as a normal pillow. The fill is dense, and seems like it won't clump up as fast as a normal pillow.

I am a side-sleeper. Sometimes my ears hurt after a night of sleeping on them. Does the trapezoid indentation prevent this from happening?

The trapezoid indentation is so low, that I'm unable to place my head in the indentation without my head tilting in an awkward / downward angle. The instructions to the pillow indicate that the areas to the left and right of the indentation are used for side sleeping. I've found these areas are unusally firm and my ears become sensitive after several hours of sleeping on these areas. In addition, after 2 - 3 months of using the pillow I believe the "small" version might have been better for me (I'm 5'5" tall).

This is the best pillow I've ever owned. For context, I am 4'10" so naturally, I have a shorter neck. I try to sleep on my back to help keep my spine aligned, and this pillow properly supports my neck and back of my head from underneath. The sides of the pillow also keep my head in place so I'm less likely to roll on my side, discouraging me from being a side sleeper again. It's not too soft nor too firm, and when I received the delivery, the pillow arrived brand new and unopened with no unusual odours. I also have a medium-firm memory foam mattress so this pillow sits well on it and doesn't get bent out of shape or lose its form.

ストレートネックの私にはやっぱり合ってます。起床時、首が痛くなくなりましたし、首の変な音もなくなりました。ただ、首元がへたるのが若干早いので、比較的頻繁に替えないと効果がなくなってしまうのが難点でマイナス1にしました。

Really pleased with this, after a good few months of not sleeping using normal soft pillows this has been a god send! Admittedly it took a couple of nights to get used to but it's really helped. I have issues with my neck, currently awaiting surgery for cervical disk removal and nerve decompression which has meant laying in bed with a normal feather pillow was just not comfortable. The way this pillow supports my neck has really helped, less cramping in my legs and hands, little strange getting used to the dip which your head fits into as it means you lay perfectly flat but it works!!! Would definitely recommend for anyone with similar issues.

I got this this pillow to help with cervical radiculopathy and poor posture. I was a side sleeper and it took several weeks to get used to sleeping on my back and on this pillow. It was painful at first. I'd only use the pillow for a few hours a night. It's been month and I'm now sleeping the whole night on it, mostly on my back. My arm numbness is gone and posture is better. So I'm really happy with my purchase. But I wanted to warn others that if you're not used to this type of pillow, it can take several weeks to get used to it.
