Is this thicker than regular pillows? I need some height as my shoulders hurt in the morning from being "crunched up" with a flatter pillow.

Hi- I love the pillow however if there is a choice I would have gone to the higher pillow as sometimes I find myself crunching up the end for more height- as I don't have chronic shoulder/neck pain I am keeping pillow. love it just wish I had opted for higher loft. hope this helps

No I do not believe it is thicker but it does not squash down like others either

It is thicker; the center is about 6" deep. This pillow has solved all of my sleeping pain issues, and I have permanent disc damage in my neck. I highly recommend this natural foam. We tried about 10 other types of pillows before finally finding this one.

this pillow is kind of in between firm and soft. it contours to your neck. i was in a car accident and it has helped me tremendously with my neck and shoulder pain. hope this helps!

Yes, the petite is thiner than regular adult size. Im 6 f, and use regular size. I bought the petite for my wife 5.4f. The pillow really works for my back pain.

Pretty thick, no clue what kinda foam. the only issue from a sitting perspective is enough back pillows and them moving around a bit - but pretty easy to resolve. The bottom cushion that you sit/sleep on is thick and nice.

yes it sure did for me. I loved the pillow but it was just not for my neck pain/injuries. if it had been a shorter rise (low rise) I'd have kept it. it does not push down much when you sleep on it and it holds it's firmness. yet it's not hard like some foam pillows are. if they ever make a low rise pillow I'm going to get it as I really wanted to keep it. for a good neck it would be perfect.

I have similar problems. the pillow is 5 1/2" thick. it's really perfect, because it's a very firm pillow. yet it doesn't feel firm once you put your head on it. it really is difficult to explain, when I don't even understand how it can make such a difference. after years of waking up with neck pain that would make my tendons so tight it caused severe migrains, I would tense up more and add back pain to the mixture. it is the best purchase I ever made, and I haven't had pain since 1st night I got pillow. I really recommend it, and I can't think of any other product that helps pain that I would ever recommend.

I'm more of a side sleeper that's why I purchased a high loft plush, a low loft would be perfect for stomach sleeper, not as high so as to keep the your neck and spine perfectly aligned. Also this pilllow will not sink flat, will sink to certain level and remain solid, excellent pillow.

I think it's about 6 inches thick. It does give some support for side sleepers but it also gives in a little to conform to your head. Personally, I like it and afar trying several Malouf pillows, this is the one I kept.

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

Thank you to the two responders on the thickness. I can't use a high pillow.Product dimensions shows this pillow is 3" think. Sounds like this is very misleading.seems like amazon ir the mfg. or both are not concerned about giving true dimensions.

the thickness is about the size of the pointer finger (lengthwise) hope this helps. It's a small and thin pillow

I am also a side sleeper, 5'7" medium build, female... I found the HIGH loft to be too flat!! I cant imagine how thin the low loft would be.

I got rid of mine... I'm 6'4" I loved this pillow for sleeping on my side but on my back it caused my neck to hurt as it was too tall. I bought the largest size and I probably should have bought one size smaller as I could have gone either way based on how they tell you to measure.

Not very. I'm having major low-back problems when I wake up. I'm looking for a way to make it feel firmer or else I'll have to find a firmer one. Good luck!

I have an older version of this pillow and it is about 4.5 to 5 inches thick in the center. It slopes down on the edges. This is a thin pillow compared to most.

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 find the pillow to be PERFECT!!! its not to thick or to soft. IT IS JUST RIGHT. I've been using it for over a year now and still remains just as new.. it is a lil heavy but in a good way. Its like 3 pillows in 1 bit not with all the thickness of 3 pillows. Trust me when I say it is one of the Best Pillows for your buck. HOPE THIS HELPS :DMichael
