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 like the pillow but it's so doused with chemicals....probably a lot of formaldehyde ..that it wreaks for months...i would stay clear...

I would say that it is. It is very conforming. Does generate a little warmth after a while as the is no venting Be sure to sleep with the zipper side away from your face.

I'm a back sleeper and this pillow is great. Helps me stop snoring. This pillow will hold your head up so doen't sound like you want this one its about 5 - 6 inches high.

I found mine to have the same firmness. The best advice I can give is to force yourself to try it for about 3 nights. You will either love it or hate it. Just take comfort in the return policy!

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.

C & L, This pillow is hard. I found it uncomfortable as I am a side sleeper. It just didn't give enough and I felt like I was sleeping on a board.If you like a very firm pillow this might work for you. My cat uses it to sleep on so I guess it's not a total waste.

I have a King size pillow, and they seem to make it a little thinner than their standard size pillow. I would say its about 3 inches thick, but if you were to get a smaller size, it may be a little thicker. I am sure the manufacturer could give you an exact measurement. One thing to keep in mind is the pillow won't sink like a normal pillow. It will be more supportive. I hope that helps.

Its plush... not fluffy not dense. It has enough give to be comfortable but not so much you sink into it. Hope it works for you. This is a tide me over till I can get a great mattress. One month down and still working.

this pillow is for any type of sleepers, I own four of these , I gave my grandson one & he took it to college, I also got him another one for his bed ,when he comes home to visit during break time.I bend this pillow any way, I'm a side sleeper. I had surgery some months ago and I was able to bend it for my comfort at the time. I love it!

Hmm. I'm a stomach sleeper but I use a small cylindrical neck pillow. I always have used a neck pillow. Everyone else in my family uses this pillow and loves it.

The pad is 2 inches thick and it is slightly smaller than my queen mattress. It is not a significant difference though. Ordering a larger size may be the answer if you are concerned about it being to small

I'm a 195lb man, and even though 5.5 should be rather firm, I found it to be much too soft for my liking. (I was looking for something firm.) I had a 4" memory foam topper from my previous spring mattress that I put on top of this though, and it feels much better (firm) now. I'd say if you want something you can sink into a bit, this would be right up your alley.

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.

If you are a back sleeper it might be enough. I'm a side sleeper with a really firm mattress. I'm around 140lbs and it's not enough softness for me. My hips still hurt. It compresses a lot and is only about an inch thick to start with.

Yeah, same here too. As Anne says, it is not for stomach sleeping, but, I too love my pillow.

For me this pillow is huge. I am a back sleeper and could not use it at night, so thick this pillow is. It provides firm support that might be good for a side sleeper. I use it for support when I watch TV on my couch.

That's difficult to answer, since that's a everyone's anatomy responds differently. That said, I think it's quite firm. Not hard, but I never sink down into it. I don't sleep on my stomach due to neck and back issues, so I can't say with any confidence when it would be like. But soft is not the way I would describe this bad.

i can't find mine at the moment but i would guess it is about 3 inches thick when fully inflated. i never use it that way, though, because about half inflated feels right for me. it's a good little pillow. my physical therapist suggested it.

It was too plush for me. I traded with a friend who purchased a different brand that was too firm for her. Great question and extremely important. The sellers should provide more info...even have a firmness scale that provides this key measurement. Who cares about 13 or 15 inches if its too plush or firm?
