How does the weight of this pillow compare to non-foam pillows?

Without having a scale to test it, I'd venture a guess that this is at least 3x heavier. It is a noticeable difference. But you don't notice it while using it.I definitely wouldn't want to get clocked in the face in a pillow fight with this.

It is somewhat heavier, but it needs to be cause it is a good orthopedic method for your neck. I use to get up more than 4 times at night after surgery from sweating, or getting hot, but now, I only get up once a night. Great pillow.

It is much heavier. Maybe 3 times the weight of a regular pillow. Still not too heavy to turn around, if needed.

I'm not sure on the pounds but it is really dense....so it weights more than your typical egg foam topper. I have been really happy with ours

I'm not sure of the weight but doesn't Amazon give that? It's certainly not heavy. I use it on airplanes so I don't pack it, just stick it in a carryon. I love it. Much cooler than a foam pillow.

I guess the best answer I can give for this is that regular memory foam feels "dryer" or "crisper" to me. It's still squishy, but you don't sink into the bed as much and it has a little bit more resistance. This gel infused one feels more dense and that makes it more squishy for some reason. I like it much better than the regular memory foam.

my pillow was firm not hard. It was much firmer that a regular pillow. I have been sleeping on it for abouta month and with the exception of me wanting it to be longer I don't have any other problems

I am not a big fan of firm pillows. This pillow is supportive while allowing your head to sink in and feel cradled. I gave this pillow to a friend that purchased a firm foam pillow and she loved it. I still enjoy the pillow.

This is moderately dense. I don't feel as if I am sinking when I lay on the pillow, but I do feel better when I put it on top of another regular pillow.

soft... all it is is foam. you literally sink into it, and when you get up it re-forms itself. its airy, not sturdy. reminds me of those memory foam pillows (except softer)

I believe shipping is free and when it is free I have noticed that weights are all over the place. I expected a heavy pillow and when UPS delivered it I was able to tuck it under my arm and bring it into the house. The only thing in the box was the bedrest. I can pick it up easily and I think it weights maybe 3 pounds at most. It is possible that the stuffing is different in some of these and that is why the weight is not really definitive. I love this bedrest and will be purchasing another one soon. I hope this helps.

Hello Annette,I just look at the lumbar pillow, it did not say what type of foam it has. But I can tell you it's very comfortable for me and I am a little over weight at 226 and my height is 5 foot 9 inches. It is not a hard foam at all.

Here's what I said in my review, "It may be thin relative to a standard king size pillow but is not even close to being really thin. " This is as thin a foam pillow I've found but it's still too thick for me. If anyone knows of one thinner, please reply to this query and let everyone know... Thanks

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

It doesn't squish flat like something hard although it is supportive it's firmer than a pillow or foam not hard like sitting on a board

The pillow is not memory foam (dense and heavy). It is filled with cubes of low density foam. It compresses easily and resumes its original shape when released.

The Phenom pillow was air cool memory foam. The Free Spirit is NXG memory foam. This will likely have a different feel.

The unit itself is not heavy . To me it feels about 3-pounds but I have it on a hook stand designed for it by the manufacturer so the motor part is never handled. Shipping now a days is a different story. We have large sections of foam weighing only 7-pounds that fits inside a box made for a case weighing 40-ponds but the shipping cost of the 7-pound foam is based on the cost of the box size and is the same cost as the shipping cost for the 40-pound case even though only a 7-pound piece of foam is in side. The entire shipping industry is this way now. I hope I helped you with this. Now a days when you order something, don't look at the total weight. It will always throw you for a loop. If weight is important, only look at the actual weight of the item itself. Contact the person / company and ask for the weight of the item itself if that information is not given in the description.

After 2+ weeks, the pillow is just like we purchased it. It is heavier in weight than other "fluffy" pillows but we really like it.
