Husband Pillow Medium Reading Pillow with Arms - 23" Backrest for Sitting Up in Bed - Firm Support Bed Rest Pillow for Adults, Neck Roll, Removable Cover - TV, Reading, Lounging - Black

I have purchased alot of husband pillows ranging from $30 up to well over $130. This pillow has the best support and comfort I have ever found. I am 5'2" and was recommended the Medium size. Having size choices is an extra bonus! It is perfect! I love the idea of adjustable firmness and neckrest. The washable cover is easier to take on and off. DOn't think twice...this is THE BEST HUSBAND PILLOW EVER

Perfect for reading or sitting up in bed. Can be used consistently without losing its shape. Provides great support.

At home, I typically work from my couch, as it's more comfortable than sitting at a desk, and I focus better there. I've been using the same reading pillow as an "office chair" for years, but it just doesn't offer the support I need anymore. After looking at all the other options out there, I settled on the Husband Pillow. I was unsure about whether to get the Medium or XXL, but as I'm 5'1" and use this on a couch, I thought the XXL might be too big. So I got the Medium, but would probably choose differently if I could do it again. The Husband Pillow definitely offers ample support compared to most. I'll even say the difference justifies the cost. The notes in the package said to give it 24-48 hours to fully expand, but mine was ready to use after about an hour. I did not put it in the dryer like some have suggested. Rather, I opened the outer cover and reached in to fluff up the foam. I will say that if you're looking for something super soft and squishy, the Husband Pillow might not be for you. It's pretty firm out of the box, and while you can add or remove filling to your taste, shredded memory foam doesn't have the same loft as the fiberfill in other pillows. The cover is plush, with beautiful, high quality fabric. I got the purple and LOVE the color. It's a true purple, not lilac or eggplant -- which it seems is surprisingly rare. The one thing I would change about the Husband Pillow, and the reason why I wish I got the bigger size, is the neck roll. In the pictures, it looks secure and integrated into the body of the pillow, like the headrest of a car seat. In real life, the pillow body has two sets of large buttons, and the neck roll attaches to them with an elastic loop that is cinched with a large lace lock. No matter how tightly the elastic is secured around the buttons, the neck roll just kinda flops around limply, providing no support unless it hangs over the body of the pillow or is propped against a headboard or wall. It would work a lot better if it could be attached more securely and tightly. Despite that one design issue, I am glad I found the Husband Pillow. No spouse is perfect, after all. ;)

I read many product reviews before I bit the bullet and invested in this pillow support - and it was an investment as the price point is higher than many of its competitors. I cannot say I wasn't tempted to go with the cheaper 80's throwback style but after just a week with this pillow, I am really glad I didn't. My positive experience began with the customer service "tips" email I received shortly after ordering; that level of service continued to surpass expectations after I received the pillow, as text message support for some questions I had was prompt and helpful. My impression is that this is a company that cares and wants their customers to be satisfied. The pillow was shipped quickly and arrived in a smaller package than I expected. There was no outgassing, no odor at all even though the pillow had been compressed and tightly wrapped in plastic. This was cited as an issue with other brands. I followed a reviewer's tip, took off the pillow cover and put the pillow in the dryer for 30 minutes on medium. Voila - a fully puffed-out support. Make sure your dryer is large enough if you try this. I got the regular cover in chocolate. The color is as shown. The cover is like velveteen, soft to the touch and, thankfully, amazingly, does not attract lint. I believe the pillow weighs about 9 pounds, so it is not too much of a monster to move around; the handle makes lifting it easy and is secured tightly to the pillow. That said, the pillow is not insubstantial either and is best for use on the bed, reading, watching videos or attending the all too frequent virus-generated Zoom meetings. It would not work for me as well in a chair or on the couch due to the thickness of the pillow. I haven't used the back pocket but the side pocket is very useful and great for holding a phone or a remote. The back without the neck pillow is definitely 24 inches, providing much higher support than the standard 18 inches of many other pillows. That alone is enough to make me grateful I chose this pillow after having sat against it for extended meetings. The ability to unzip the pillow to remove (or add) foam is a huge benefit for me. I decided I needed the back to be a bit more flexible to curve more under the base of my spine and I wanted the arms to come closer to my body. Removing foam achieved both those goals. I will warn you, however, do not wear black leggings and do it in an area that is easy to sweep. Despite sticking the opening of a plastic kitchen trash bag inside the zipper for transferring the foam, the filling escaped my hands and surrounded me. I strongly advise having a dryer sheet handy. It worked wonders to minimize static cling as I gathered the wayward pieces. The only drawback for me was the neck/head roll that attaches to the top of the main pillow. I found myself wishing it too had a zipper so I could adjust the amount of filling as it is just a bit too firm. I may end up making a small slit to remove some foam then duct tape the opening before putting the separate cover back on it. The roll has elasticized bands to attach it to two buttons on top of the main pillow. The bands have 3 openings so the roll can be secured tighter to the top or left to drop down a bit with either of the other two band openings. However, due to the fullness of the neck/head roll, if it is left to hang down, it rolls back up as I lean against it. If it is buttoned in the tightest position, the neck/head roll offers more support but is set back a bit too far for me to keep my head upright even with the pillow against the wall, thus it is not especially useful when reading or watching a video. It is better for leaning back and resting. The neck/head roll also is useful off the main pillow to support a book or my arms in front of my body if I am leaning forward to watch a screen and is also good as a support beneath my knees. The pillow and the cover can be washed and the company offers a 3 year warranty and options to buy more foam, as well as replacement or 2-color reversible covers. I expect this pillow to last for some time and recommend it for its features, quality and for the customer service experience.

I simply love this pillow !!! I use it every day before bed. It’s very firm, soft, comfortable and serves its purpose. I am 5’5” and it’s perfect for me. I put the detachable head piece on the bottom in the middle of the pillow to support my lower back as that’s the only thing I would correct if I had to improve it. Great product and I would purchase it again .

Best pillow of its type I have tried

I'll start off with: We're keeping it.... but.... CONS: It's NOT plush foam. This arrived and was a LUMPY HARD rock. Yes, we let it air out... nearly 72 hours. No odor (which was a pleasant surprise) but that may have been because it wasn't "plush" foam as noted. We decided we had to remove some foam because it just seemed TOO stuffed and uncomfortable. I removed an ENTIRE kitchen garbage bag. Then it was a bit softer yet firm enough to sit back on. But what I found was a high % of the foam having a HARD coating/shell. (see photo.) These sharper ridges and edges must impede the contents from really molding and that's the lumpy heavier result. When you stick your hand inside, you can immediately feel all the sharper edges on every piece that had it (best way to describe it is the feel of clear packing tape. Obviously they got foam that had a coating of sort and chopped that. Absolutely not “shredded true memory foam" because memory foam doesn't have that coating on it. Maybe the ones that don't have this coating is true memory foam...but a TON of it had that coating. It also was a HUGE static mess! One might think "well that's just what foam does." Well, after removing the entire contents of the headrest pillow - I decided to fill with extra foam we some we had leftover one of the #1 selling pillows (thank goodness - otherwise, the price of this goes up or we would've returned) - and THAT foam is pure plush foam and it had NO static. Not sure why but obvious difference. So...... PROS: Now with the headrest pillow stuffing replaced, and 25% (or more) of the backrest foam removed - it's actually decent. Quite large, outer shell IS very soft. We kept the lumpy hard stuff tight in the arm rests, and the back has room for the stuffing to move now so it's not so STIFF but comfortable. So for this amount of money and considering there are lots to choose from, not sure this is worth the costs. But..it had the pockets and headrest pillow that others don't have. This also had more colors to choose from so our research led us here. I've included a photo on our King size bed for comparison. It's almost too big, daughter wants to use this on her Twin College dorm bed. Not sure it will swallow her. But only size in the color we chose and the color and pockets was our motivator for paying this price. Not the worst Amazon purchase...but not the best either.

I was determined to find a pillow that would work as a stand alone support pillow for reading or watching TV in bed. By stand alone I mean a pillow that didn’t need additional pillows placed strategically behind, beside it or around it to work. I wanted something I could relax against that supports my body ergonomically. I bought three to test after reading all their respective reviews. I have degenerative disc disease in my neck and am very active but LOVE to watch TV and read in bed. Always end up messing up my neck if I read or watch TV for any length of time unless I sit up straight, pay constant attention to my posture and don’t skooch down or slouch at all. The whole point of snuggling up in bed is to get comfy and cozy and NOT obsess about posture! We have a wooden tall headboard that is flat so need something that works with it . Two pillows came from Amazon and the third was a $200 memory foam monster with a reading light that came from a popular comfort store. This Husband pillow won hands down. It is soft but offers great support. The detachable neck roll hits perfectly behind my neck and can be adjusted a bit, heightwise, depending on user preferences. You can also remove it and put it under your knees which is a nice option. The arms are a comfortable height and they are squishy so you can snuggle and lean a bit on them without throwing a shoulder out of whack. Or you can sit between them and push them to side. These arms are much more versatile than the pricey memory foam pillow that had fixed, firm arms that were way too tall. There is an open pocket on outside of right arm and in back of pillow for stuff. The fabric is a smooth velour type and the cover removes for washing on both the main pillow and the neck roll. The fill is a crumbled memory foam that expands over 48 hours to full loft. It conforms to your shape and looks like it will retain the fluff over time. You can also get more foam from the company if you wish: that information is in instruction leaflet that comes with the pillow. Nice option. When pillow arrives it is well packed and compressed to 1/2 size so you need to follow included instructions to get it fluffed out. Finally this is a stand alone pillow. It works for me without needing other support pillows around it. The other Amazon pillow was the reader pillow. It was also well made with similar fill but wasn’t as tall or as supportive as this one. I would add that body type and size make a difference in terms of what works for the user. I am 5 ft 7 and relatively fit but this looks like it will work for taller guys as well as women. The arms are set far enough apart for most body types. If your shoulders are super broad and you want support behind your shoulders this might not work as the pillow narrows as the height increases. Overall this pillow is just fabulous!

I am over 6 feet tall and find the bed rest pillow to be perfect. I am currently ill and am spending a lot of time in bed and the pillow is greatfor additional support.

I was looking for a giant pillow for the back of my bed, and this one was by far the best i found for the size & price point. It practically adds a new place to sit in my tiny apartment, which is invaluable to me. It's just overall really comfy to sit against.

Liked them,very much. Would recommend them to everybody

Lijdend aan rugproblemen, heb ik al veel kussens geprobeerd en deze is veruit de beste. Ik ben 1m82 lang. De meeste kussens zijn te laag. Deze is gewoon perfect en het hoofdkussen is een pluspunt. Het kussen ondersteunt de rug erg goed en is niet te zacht en niet te hard. Dit is precies waar ik naar zocht. Let ook op een extreem snelle commerciële service. Er misten twee knoppen om het hoofdkussen te bevestigen en de verkoper stuurde me meteen een nieuwe hoes. Ik ben erg blij met deze aankoop en ik beveel de aankoop van dit kussen zonder enig voorbehoud aan.
