Sealy Memory Foam Bed Pillow

One of the best pillows. Light weight, holds shape, and is cooling. 10/10 recommend.

I bought this to replace my 10+ year old molded memory foam pillow that was perfect for all these years but had started to lose its firmness (it still holds its shape perfectly, tough). A Flex driver brought it in the night for same-day delivery. Anyway, I slept soooooo good last night with this pillow. When I went to bed, I still had lingering pain in my neck and head from the other temporary pillow I was using, which was a horrible pillow. When I woke up, something about having slept on this pillow all night made it so I could massage out the kinks that were causing the pain and now the pain is gone. I feel normal again. There are a lot of mixed reviews on this pillow with some saying it's too firm and others saying it's too soft. The thing is, it's actually both firm and soft. It's a little firmer when it's new just like any other memory foam sleep product, and it's just teetering on the edge of too firm for me out of the box. This tells me that once it's broken in, it'll be perfect. I found this to be absolutely perfect -- heavenly even -- when sleeping on my side. It feels like my head is properly supported in a straight position rather than being up or down. When it comes to lying on my back, this pillow does have my head just a little elevated, but again I think once it's broken in, it will be perfect for both back and side sleeping. Sure, it's only been one night with it but I feel like this is a great pillow -- a giant upgrade over the crappy temporary pillow, and regained the feeling my old molded memory foam pillow had before it started to finally wear out. I sure hope this one lasts just as long as my old one...I love it already!

After sleeping on this pillow for a couple of months now, I can say that it definitely supports your neck if you sleep on your side. Although it takes some time for your head to sink in, it conforms to your head and supports it nicely. It isn’t too soft, but it isn’t super hard either as I don’t have to fight it to get my head positioned. I don’t stay on one side throughout the night and would consider myself a “roller” since I roll from one side, to my back, and then to the other side and vice versa throughout the night. This pillow is great for side sleeping, but it probably isn’t ideal for back sleepers. The pillow is just firm enough to fill the shoulder gap for side sleepers, but slightly too firm to be comfortable when sleeping on your back. As for the pillow itself, it’s foam with a removable pillow covering like any other pillow. You can wash the covering if you stain it. The foam is memory foam and relatively cool because it’s made with a grid of holes in the material to promote airflow and temperature regulation. Overall, I’m happy with this pillow and it supports my side very well. The material is the perfect combination of soft and firm. Temperature has never been an issue to me, either. I recommend this pillow if you’re a side sleeper!

I'm 6'2" and I used to use two pillows - one normal and one very thin to add extra height. The thin one I used for forever but one day I knew I needed to get rid of it. Since then I've struggled to find a pillow that is high enough to support my neck. After trying many other single pillow options, I just tried this and I'm not even sure I tossed in the night like I used to because I was that comfortable! I woke up in the same side position I fell asleep in and my neck feels completely rested and rejuvenated! This pillow is a supportive firm but also very squishy. On my side, I've found that it cradles my neck and head very comfortably but still holds the desired height. My prior purchases of other pillows cradled well but left my neck with a harsh bend downward. Now I have a pillow that feels great but doesn't compress a lot under the weight of my head, which was always a problem with other foam pillows (which had less height to start with and more compression under weight). If you need less neck height for side sleeping, you may find the this one doesn't compress enough for you and leaves your head too high. Maybe I'm wrong on that but felt worth mentioning. However, if you find that other pillows you've tried are literally falling short of the mark, try this one and hopefully it will work as well for your as it has for me! On a different note, it seems like it will still be comfortable on my back because it compresses more with the smaller surface area (of the back of my head vs the side) but I'm not a big back sleeper so I can't speak too much to this. Just wanted to add in that it seems like the pillow has some versatility. EDIT: I've slept a number of times on my back since my initial review and its been very comfortable. I'm getting the best sleep I've had in many many years with this pillow, whether on my back or side!

Excellent product, very comfortable, very durable. Have been using these about three years now. Looks like maybe this model isn't available any more, which is unfortunate. After three years, they've kept their shape, haven't squashed down like a lot of foam pillows do. I would've liked them a little bit firmer, but there didn't seem to be any more firm than this, and they are actually quite comfortable. A very nice feature is the built-in internal pillowcase, which can be zipped off and washed separately. Two layers between me and the foam, keeping it very clean. The price may seem high, but these turned out to be completely worth it.

I really hate to leave a review on Amazon's service, since these are intended to be product specific, but I think this is a little bit of both: I need a new pillow, so I bought what I thought were two styles of pillows to try out to see what I liked, this one and then this one too: "Sealy Essentials Memory Foam Bed Pillow for Pressure Relief, Adaptive Memory Foam Pillow with Washable Knit Cover, Standard, 24 x 16 in x 5 in,White" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07X77BWYT?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 When they arrived, they were in identical Sealy boxes, no big deal yet. However, when you open them, they are also identical pillows. There is one exception to the identicalness, one's "do not remove under penalty of law" tag is different. On the one I think was supposed to be this Grey pillow, it has been stickered over, so the tag matches now the other all white one and says "foam slab" instead of the original text under the sticker that shows it was originally listed as "foam pieces" before the sticker changed it to say foam slab now as well. It has a heat printed thick paper STICKER just stuck over the top of the cloth tag. I've never seen anything like it before. I contacted Amazon, they sent out a replacement, and it's the exact same pillow again!!! If you want the grey one, or don't want one that's identical to the other listing posted above, don't buy this pillow,'s listing you'll get the all white one with the weird tag instead. The pillow itself feels great. This seems like a newer version of the one I was using already, so it should be perfect. I will say the foam smell is strong, but I expect that due to the material. I have it airing out currently and will starting using it tomorrow. The firmness seems like a good medium.

I've been having back pain for some time & had started to think that my very expensive memory foam mattress might be over the hill. Before making that leap, I thought I'd try replacing my pillow that is the same age as my bed. Easy enough, right? You'd think. I've bought, returned, tossed, gifted & turned into pet beds quite a few in my search for a "Goldilocks" pillow. I'm a 95% side / 5% back sleeper & just could NOT find a pillow with the right balance of softness & support. The original wavy molded memory foam pillows are always too hard & hurt my neck. Others have so much loft with no softness & give me a crick in my neck. Softer ones provide no support &, yup, make my neck hurt. Still... I thought I'd try again before spending thousands on a new bed. This $30 pillow couldn't offer much, right?? But, it was Sealy so, why not? I could always chalk up another return. Well, say hello to Goldilocks! It usually takes me quite a while to get comfy. This pillow has the perfect loft / softness / support. It supports my head at the correct angle with my spine but is still soft enough to alleviate pressure on my neck & head. I've slept on it for 2 nights & both nights I was comfy & off to dreamland very quickly. I slept like the dead for hours in the same position until my halftime trip to the bathroom. Then I switched sides & slept for several more hours, never rolling onto my back. I woke both mornings with no back pain. (I have a bit of residual soreness from having chronic pain, but not at all the pain that I was waking up to previously.) I'm beyond pleased & would give it 10 stars if I could. I'll definitely be buying more!

This is an excellent pillow for a side sleeper. Nearly all memory foam pillows seem to be made with back sleepers in mind, and this one isn't, which is awesome. I only took a chance because the description specifically mentioned that it's designed for side sleepers. If you sleep on your back, this isn't the right one for you. Recently, I've gotten in the bad habit of reading pdf books laying on my back, with my laptop on my chest (terrible for the face, I know) and this pillow actually works quite well for that, because it cradles and angles the neck slightly forward. While that works great for reading, for a back sleeper trying to get to sleep, that would be super annoying and render this pillow unusable. But that's fine, because almost any other memory foam pillow should work for you, since nearly all are designed with back sleepers in mind. I'm glad to finally find a memory foam pillow I can use, after like 30 years of looking for one. I even tried to switch to sleeping on my back, because it's supposed to be better all around for your face, your breathing and your sleep quality. But for whatever reason, I can not get to sleep on my back - I either can't get to sleep at all, or get woken up by sensations of falling. So to you back sleepers - lucky you. I wish I could do the same. In sum, I highly recommend this memory foam pillow to any side sleepers looking to try out one of these. Side note: I like to sleep high, with my head and neck aligned in a straight column through my upper torso and spine. I used to even sleep with two pillows as a teen, before I took to getting one of the squishier, fluffier varieties of pillow, folded up in half, and/or scrunched up. If like your head lower, and some do, this pillow might not work for you, even as a side sleeper. For me, it feels like the perfect height.

I literally searched for years and this pillow changed my life

Perfect

ME ENCANTO MUY SUAVE Y CONFORTABLE

Got this to replace the previous identical (almost) model when that one lost it's memory, bit like me. It gives good support for my neck so I no longer wake up with my head bent at a right angle and dribbling out of the corner of my mouth plus a stiff neck so I resemble Egor slightly. It's firm but not too firm and doesn't make me hot, so I don't wake up looking like I've just come back from a quick skinny dip in the night. I'd recommend this particular one because I did buy a different brand to try, mainly because it wasn't so expensive and it almost killed me. I woke up every morning with my back killing me and hardly able to walk, yet I was fine before I bought that piloow. So after have a light bulb moment and realising it was the memory foam cheap pillow crippling me I took the plunge and bought this one. I'm so glad I did. I no longer wake up looking like someone's thrown a bucket of water over my head and I don't hobble about like I've got rigormortis. So yes I'd definitely recommend this Sealy pillow. Don't let the cost put you off, it's not the most expensive but I promise you it is the most comfortable and you'll wake up in the morning full of the joys of spring.

I usually buy tempur pillows which are frightfully expensive. I put this on par with them for a fraction of the cost.
