Is this pillow firm? How does the firmness compare to regular poly filled pillows that are marketed as firm?

Compared to pillows marked as "Firm", I would say, no, this is not firm. This pillow flattens with use and can be folded in half which is what I do when I sleep on my side, and I sleep on my side almost all the time. Strange as the folding pillow sounds, I love this pillow. It definitely feels cool. In my Floridian house everyone kept using my pillow so everyone now has their own Iso Cool.

On a 1 to 10 scale it's a nice 6 - so a medium firm pillow - cradles your head without to much pressure on the neck

It's not real super firm. I find it very comfortable and that's unusual for me because I have a bad neck. I would definitely buy it again.

Yes, it is actually very firm. The picture of the hand print left in the matteress is misleading. This mattress is far to firm to leave a hand print.

They are similar to other foam pillows but this one I would honestly say it's firm but soft. You won't wake up with your neck hurting if you get these. I've also noticed I don't toss and turn as much in the night anymore. Hope this helped!

My foam pillow is firm, not rock hard, but holds up my legs. It is kind of square with a point on one end. I use the flat side up agenst the back of my thighs with my leg from knee down on top of the pillow in order to do leg exercises. I will use it when I get my artificial ankle joint to help circulation. I like mine. No complaints.

The 4 of these pillows I have purchased have been a rather firm and heavy foam, and firmer than most regular pillows I've had, but definitely not "hard as a rock." They softened quite a bit after they warmed up from sitting outside in the box as well. Try it out for a couple of nights - I would return it for a replacement if it seems unreasonably hard.

Yes- my full size mattress is a pillow top and the topper added a great deal of firmness to it. It is not as firm as a hard matress but I didn't want hard mattress. I find it immensely comfortable - really a pleasure to receive a product that more than lived up to its product details. It is heavy though so if you order it, it may be a little awkward to manuveur it yourself. I hope this answers your question.

I sleep on my side and find it a reasonably comfortable pillow. You should know it is firm, perhaps even hard in the sense that most stuffed pillows will gradually shift their stuffing, settling into the shape of your head. This one does not do that very much, it is not hard like a brick but neither does it let you sink into it very far. While I can not speak for others, I would expect that if you like a solid, slightly yielding pillow, this is for you. If your preference runs to the more squishy pillows you probably will not like it.

What I have noticed is that I sink a little bit but then the pillow is firm, but still extremely comfortable. And you can fluff it more if you fluffier pillows. My wife and I both love this pillow and we have very differing idea on what makes a pillow comfortable. I hope this helps.

Not sure if is supposed to be soft or hard. I can say that it is firm, supportive and comfortable. If you really prefer something really soft, not sure this pillow will meet your need.

Yes, I agree that it feels firm, but not in a rock-hard way. You can feel it begin to conform to you. If you don't like firmness, try softening with a mattress pad that is lofty, or a pillow top, or a feather bed.

It's fairly firm, yes. I'm also a side sleeper and it works very well for me.

Well, it kind of is like the person has described!! The pillow is heavy and dense. It gives great support. My husband and I have been using ours for about a year and we love them. I don't think we'll ever go back to a regular pillow again.

Mine feels quite soft. I find it very comfortable. Firmness is relative and subjective though and I don't know what your original feels like.

It really does not fluff. It is made to be firm and that is the reason I bought it.It is as firm today as the day I got it. I don't like to sink into the pillow. If you don't likefirm, return it, it wont unfirm.

I would say firm. However, with plenty of use, it becomes softer. I sleep on it every night and own two of them. My older one is noticeably softer from much use.

I am not sure but the density seems firm to me. It is a very comfortable and supportive pillow.

For me it has good firm but i don't think it is super firm. I am not sure about the density. For me it is give good comfort and i use it in my car and it really helps.
