Some reviews say this pillow is not as firm or thick as earlier ones. Has anyone purchased this in the past few months? Quality?

Unfortunately I didn't think it was as firm as the earlier ones. I believe it is as thick, but without the firmness it doesn't seem to be as thick. One thing that concerned me that was in some comments was that it smells like chemicals, mine definitely did not smell.

I bought the queen size of this in August to replace a denser, 10 year old contour pillow. Out of the box, this pillow is less firm and way lighter in weight, but in use it supports my head perfectly and I really think less firm = more comfortable.

I just bought one and it was incredibly soft! I was able to easily squeeze it together with 2 fingers. sending back for a return

Very firm and thick enough for me. Took me a couple of nights to get used to the pillow, but am sleeping well with no complaints

No, its very comfortable and not too soft or too firm. Many isotonic pillows are way too soft and don't have enough padding but this one is great! My son and I both love ours.

I haven't had my pillow for very long but I am very happy with it. I have fewer headaches, and it does seem to be cooler than other pillows. This pillow was recommended to me by a couple who claimed a much better sleep with less snoring and headaches. Hope that helps.

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.

I've had it for 1 yr now and it has retained it's shape, however, it has not provided comfort for me since I purchased the pillow. I do not recommend it. Hope this helps!

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

Not really dense. I preferred the original pillow .. Some did not like the original because it was SO firm. I liked it because it gave support and lasted a long time. Newer version just flattens with pressure. Old version still held up under pressure. Too soft for me.

Yes, it's about 5 inches thick and I love it. My old one was about 3 inches thick after many years of use. I find this type of pillow to last years without going flat.

The pillow is quite firm, in fact I use an old down pillow on top of it. For me, the pillow is too small. If there is a larger pillow available, I'd recommend that one instead.

It's pretty firm. My husband and I have talked about taking some stuffing out. I thought after a few months now that it would soften up, but no luck. It's hard for me to use on my head because many times I turn on my stomach, but it's great for me to sleep with on my side like in the product picture.

Allison, The pillow is not heavy at all. If you are wondering if it stays in place, it does. For the money, I'm happy. My back isn't as sore as it was before I began using it. Good luck. Jim

I actually slept right on it because it never really said if you were or weren't supposed to. It was wonderful. Nice and cozy. However it did sort of mat down in one spot, so now it's not as fluffy as it was when I first got it a year ago. But now I have a sheet over it and it feels good as well, I think it's a little better than plain, providing a little more cushion and comfort. I would but this again and again, I have been very pleased. I have also washed and dried mine with no problems! Hope this helps!

aloha from hawaii! this pillow is what i would consider a softer pillow. if you want a firmer pillow, probably get an inflatable one that you can adjust to your comfort level. i got this for my son and he likes it a lot and it is comfortable.

No. The pillow is firm and at first I was mad about the pillow but a few weeks after I have been sleeping w it, I love it! It becomes so soft and formed to ur head or body( depending how u sleep) for the price it is def something to try and if u like u could always buy more once you feel comfortable that it was a good investment. ( n NO I do not work w this company. I am just happy about the results of this pillow and w my neck not being sore when I wake up.)

It's soft yet firm. Your head won't totally sink into it, which is why I like it. If you want a very very soft pillow, you might not like this.

I've had mine for only a couple of months now but it's very firm which I figured a low end mattress would lose the firmness faster so ill deal with it until then. Its comfy but stiff. And it is not foamy has a little spring bounce. For the price I'm happy. Back has started to feel better since I got it. My okd one was a soft thin cheap pillow top that sunk in two years
