What is the height of the firm low loft and high loft, and the plush low loft and high loft? I'm trying to judge which is right for our neck support

I purchased high-loft firm because I am a side sleeper & have arthritis in my neck. I would guess the pillow is abour 7" high in middle, tapering to 4-5" near the edges. It has been great for my neck stiffness. If you're not used to firm pillows it may be a big adjustment for you.

Best to call the manufacturer of the loft bed. They are very helpful. It has been almost a year since our purchase and cannot give dimensions. We are more than satisfied with the loft bed. Hope this was helpful....

very firm , I like plush / medium soft My wife like hard , and this was even slightly firm for her for the 1rst week , it does break in and even I can sleep on it . I use a 1, maybe 2" gel topper for more comfort/ softness (I like my ribs and hips to sink in so my spine is strait since I am a side sleeper I weigh 165 my wife 160 so if your heavier it may be just right if your lighter then 165lbs then this will be to firm unless you like a firm almost very firm mattress . It is zero gravity when just laying on your back it does give you a floating sensation and is very relaxing ...

The queen size firm pillow is about 3.5-4 inches tall. I am a side sleeper as well and I find the height to be just right.

The pillow I have was low at first, to low for me, so I made it higher and shorter, now I truly love this pillow... I can't remember the inches before I transform it.

The preference is the biggest difference. My mom needs a pillow that allows her to be more upright for reflux issues, so we bought a high plush for when she visits. For myself, I need the low plush to assist with neck support.

37long 16 wide 6 deep. Keep in mind that this is for the high loft plush. This pillow is very soft.

They are Standard Pillow Size. Queen would be too big. I put mostly very lofty pillows in my shams to make a nice 'back rest' and the lower loft pillows in the regular pillow cases.

NO. very comfortable. I tried one and finally ordered a second one. I got the high loft which was great. the low loft did not give enough support for me. felt like no pillow at all.

Only my opinion of course, but we found the high/firm to be TOO high and firm! The high/plush was almost exactly right but perhaps just a touch too high.

I also usually sleep on my side (sometimes back, never stomach) and I got the high loft and love it. My neck feels very well supported and the plushness of the pillow allows your head to sink into it comfortably without keeping your neck up at a weird angle or making your ear feel squished.My only other tip would be to make sure you get king size pillow cases. These pillows are long and stick out of normal size pillow cases. Not a big deal since the cover is nice and soft, but it annoys me.

I'm the same height as you and very petite, and have the same preferences as you. I loved my goose down pillow, but hated that I had to keep fluffing it. I purchased this pillow in "low loft, firm," and it's a little too firm for me. Also, I find that when I awake that I'm hardly on the pillow because it might still be a little too high. So I'm exchanging it for the "low loft, plush."

The pillow actually ended up being too large for me. I am petite 5'2" and it pushed my neck too far forward. For an average size or larger adult it might be ok. I am currently out of town so cannot measure the exact thickness, but it is quite thick in the center as well as the wing sides. The center of the pillow was also too wide for me and extremely firm. I ended up using one as a lumbar support in my office chair and the other as neck support when I do floor exercises. I hope this helps!

I start out sleeping on my left side and use the high loft plush. As I change positions, this pillow is always comfy. We have the high loft firm, too, but use it when watch tv. Sorry I can't really compare anything other than these two and I love the high loft plush.

I would say no to stomach sleepers. It is high loft, but squishes down part way for back sleeping and good for side sleeping. So thin - no, soft - yes, plush - partially, firm - partially - high loft - yes

I still have the one that I had from some 30 years ago. It hasn't fallen apart yet and it doesn't smell or anything. I don't remember when the other one died but it's been gone awhile and I think it went into the dryer or something one to many times and just crumbled. That was in the days when I put everything in the dryer. The one's I bought in the last few years I hope to last me the rest of my life. But I don't have a specific answer for you. But I will say this..shop around...these pillows can be found under various names with different covers but they are all quite similar and the savings can be over $100 a pillow. Next there are what they call lofts (how firmly the pillow will hold your head) and also thicknesses which are more important for how you sleep. A side sleeper usually needs a higher pillow while a back sleeper needs a lower pillow but probably more firm. I myself am a side sleeper and I like the medium density (loft) when I can find it. The firm are too intense for me. I've bought high loft plush queen size and I've bought high loft medium queen size and I've bought low loft plush queen size and I'm happy with all of them but my favorite is the high loft medium which are hard to find. I've only ever returned the firm ones.

i found it was NOT ideal for short necks. it felt too tall and uncomfortable. too bad these pillows are not one-soze-fits-all!
