   Very compact and works very well
   I love this product because it was easy to use. It came rolled small. And quickly expand it so I was able to use it that night. It has retained its shape and is very comfortable. I have found even more uses for it that I initially thought. I purchase it to elevate my feet but it’s great for elevating my head also. It is sturdy and I thought it was a good value

   Perfect height, good quality and comfy
   Perfect height, good quality and comfy. I have to constantly on my feet at work. Being able to elevate my feet when sleeping is such a great recovery method. I tried several other products, some are too high, some are too hard. This one is just enough support and soft, I’m satisfied. Have been using it for 3months.

   Large size
   I like the size, it’s big so if you roll around it’s still there. I couldn’t find a cover for it though. It needs a cover Bedluxe. Do better.Travelability = 0 it’s too big to fit into a suitcase.Pain relief has been great. I almost wish it was just an inch or 2 taller but I’m happy with it.It is solid but soft foam and does not deform or lose much height.

   Works great!
   My brother ordered one of these when he had his knee replacement surgery so suggested I order one when I had foot surgery and needed a pillow to lift my foot up above my heart. I ordered the 8″, I wasn’t sure it would be high enough but it’s worked out fine. I really like that it has a pillow cover on it that I can remove and wash. It’s pretty light weight so easy to pick up and carry. I’m 6 weeks in a boot, wearing the boot 24/7, and so far the pillow has stayed firm and has not lost any of its shape or integrity. I highly recommend it.

   Very effective
   I’m used to an adjustable bed and don’t have one in our transition to our new place in several months. This really helps to elevate my legs and makes it much more comfortable to read or watch t.v. It is very sturdy and good quality. I really love that it has a removable cover so that I can be washed. I take this with me when we travel. It would be great if it came with a plastic zippered bag to for storage and for ease in traveling, like my previous wedge pillows did.

   Great pillow
   Exactly as described, perfect for aligning the hips. Better sleep and better ability to remain asleep. Good for leaning on too.

   Good, BUT… has too many design flaws for my specific needs
   If you can lay down with your legs elevated at an angle with zero support under your knees, then this wedge will probably be a perfect 5-star fit for you and you don’t need to read any further.If you think having no support under your knees might be an issue, then please read my review below.MY REVIEW:Leg elevation pillows/wedges are GREAT for people with lower back problems. I have both upper & lower back problems which unfortunately limit me to only being able to sleep on my back because of the pain. It’s the least painful position for me to sleep in, however, having my legs elevated is KEY as it takes most of the pressure off my lower back. This pillow serves as a great “base” structure to build on for that use, BUT it has some pretty big flaws for me which is the reason why I can only give it 3 stars and the reason I’ve had to spend more money to customize it to work for my situation.BIG FLAW #1: It has an unbelievably hard time staying in place and not sliding down the bed during the course of the night. I don’t really have the ability to move much in that sleeping position yet it still moves. I have yet to find a way to keep this pillow from continually sliding down the bed. What’s worse is that it’s impossible for me to pull it back up since it has no straps so I have to get out of bed to readjust it whenever it gets uncomfortably far from where I need it to be.BIG FLAW #2: For MY back and my specific lumbar issues, the angle of the wedge isn’t right. To be fair, the angle isn’t right with ANY of these leg elevation wedges since they almost all share the same dimensions. Because the angle is so off for me, I get no pillow support under my knees and that’s just really uncomfortable. Maybe it’s because I’m short (5 ft 3 in) and my legs probably aren’t long enough to fit the pillow… Who knows… but now that I see the product images again, it looks like the model also has no pillow support under their knees. Regardless of that, and seeing as all these pillows would share the same flaw/issue for me, I simply found a way to fix the problem for myself by using a half-moon knee wedge/pillow under my knees. Once that’s in place, the wedge pillow setup is just right for removing most of the pressure off my lumbar spine.NOTE: Even though I’ve made this wedge work for me to some extent, the unfortunate problem is that it will always go back to the worst flaw which is its inability to keep from sliding down the bed throughout the night. To complicate things further, add my need for a knee pillow right where the wedge angles downward and now you have two pillows sliding out of place throughout the night and needing adjustments. It’s a nightmare plus a headache and a half, but it’s the only thing that I’ve gotten to work well for my back problems. I’ll probably have to buy industrial Velcro to attach the knee pillow to the leg pillow and then find a way to get the leg pillow to stay in place… It’s a work in progress.Anyway, the whole point of my review and giving this level of detail is because someone out there may have the same problem and may have to spend more money than just the price of the leg elevation wedges to get a set-up that works for them.MY RATING – 3 STARS:I really wish I could give this product a better rating, but I simply can’t. It is a very sturdy and well made pillow that looks like it will last years and years before the foam loses its shape, but it could be overall a better product if certain flaws were fixed. If you’re on the fence about it, I would encourage you to at least give it a try since that wedge angle seems to work for most people.NOTE: If you are also worried about the slipping/moving issue, there are other leg pillows that do have built-in straps for easier nightly adjustments. I would have gone with one of those, but this pillow was wider and the width was more important to me than having the built-in straps, especially since I didn’t want to further restrict to my sleeping position by having to worry about my legs falling off the sides if I moved them too much in the night. This width is more than comfortable to allow for that.Anyway, this is my honest review. I think I would’ve run into these problems with almost all of the leg elevation pillows as they are mostly designed the same way. In the end, I selected this particular pillow based off its wider dimension. The height and the width of the wedge work well for me and, thankfully, my feet don’t hang off the top edge (which just looks like it would be uncomfortable after a few minutes).Hope this helps…
