Eli & Elm | Best Ergonomic Side Sleeper Pillow for Neck Pain. Supportive Cooling Latex Fill with Luxury Breathable Cover. U-Shape Contoured Design. Queen Size Bed Pillow - 17" X 29"

I ABSOLUTELY thought the shape of this pillow was a gimmick, but I had gotten sick of how the Pillow Cube didn’t work if I ever turned onto my back or stomach during the night—that sweet 90* angle doesn’t do well on your vertebrae!—and was somehow always too high or too low of an angle for comfort. So I tried one of those “customizable” pillows that is 3-in-1, and I spent a painful few weeks jamming up my shoulder in a fruitless attempt to match the high point of the pillow with the side of my head: either my neck had no support, or I was tensing my shoulder against the pillow all night trying to keep it where I needed it. Then I tried one of those “cervical spine” pillows that looks like it came out of a sleep study in Picasso’s cubist period. No matter what, I couldn’t figure out where the makers *think* heads go or how they think necks work, because it made no sense and was even less comfortable. So I am at the end of my rope: exhausted, waking up in pain, constantly getting the crick out of my neck, and generally tired of doing battle with a bundle of cotton in exchange for a bad night’s sleep. It’s in THAT desperation that I say what the heck, I’ll try your dumb pillow with its bow tie shape. It’ll never work. The saga will continue… UNTIL IT DID. THE PILLOW WORKED!! The indent on the bottom means my shoulder doesn’t have to fight the pillow for position. The really sturdy loft and even distribution means my neck always has a comfortable angle. The way it slightly slopes toward the bottom corners means I can lie this way and that without having to shift the pillow with me. The indent at the bottom means there’s no pressure on my upper back if I end up sleeping face up, and an easy little space to sneak into if I end up sleeping face down. I have been a miserable side-sleeper for SO LONG, but that story is over now. This silly-shaped pillow is the answer for side-sleepers who just want a comfortable night of sleep without fighting and to wake up less fatigued. FINALLY!

After struggling with neck and shoulder pain for years, I decided to give the Eli & Elm Side Sleeper Pillow a try, and I can honestly say it has made a huge difference in my sleep quality. From the moment it arrived, I was impressed. The packaging was sleek, sturdy, and well-designed—definitely a step above the flimsy plastic bags that some pillows come in. It felt like I was unboxing a high-end product, which only added to my excitement. The pillow itself is unlike any other I’ve tried. The contoured design, specifically made for side sleepers, provides incredible support for my neck and head. I no longer wake up with that dreaded stiff neck or aching shoulders. The fill is adjustable, so I was able to customize the firmness to suit my needs. It has just the right balance of softness and support—plush enough to be comfortable, but firm enough to keep my head aligned with my spine. Since switching to this pillow, I’ve noticed a dramatic reduction in morning aches and pains. I used to wake up feeling sore, but now I feel refreshed and well-rested. If you're a side sleeper struggling with discomfort, I highly recommend giving the Eli & Elm Side Sleeper Pillow a try. It’s an investment in better sleep, and for me, it’s been worth every penny.

I've struggled with neck and shoulder pain for a long time. I sleep on my side and rather than sleeping on my back I tried a few different pillows. Last night I tried this pillow for the first time. I gave it a few hours to breathe and take form after being sealed. The comfort of this pillow was really nice, I woke up without any pain. The crescent shape seems helpful. For me, it appears to be the right amount of fill inside the pillow. Although I do know with this type of pillow I may need to add filling down the road because of wear. It did smell really bad last night, to the point I almost wanted to not use it. This morning I took it outside on the back porch to let it air out. This afternoon it's much better. If it still lingers tonight I'll repeat tomorrow and hopefully that should do it. I had a coop pillow before that had that smell and I did the same thing and it took care of the smell. Also, I have a satin pillow case that is rectangular shape but it worked fine with this shape, it's obviously not a perfect fit and isn't aesthetically pleasing but that doesn't bother me. Maybe down the road if I come across a crescent shape satin or silk pillowcase I'll buy it. If things change with the comfortable feeling of this pillow or I start waking up with neck pain I'll update this review. For now, it was very nice to wake up without neck and shoulder pain, I'll take the win!

After continually buying pillows that gave me a sore neck, I thought I would lash out and buy a more expensive pillow after seeing the reviews, it's the best money I have ever spent, I slept like a baby last night,the pillow is easy to adjust if you are a restless sleeper like me, it does have a slight latex smell when you take plastic off but I fixed that by airing it out in the sun,also cushion didn't come with a pillow case but the pillow will fit a standard pillow case anway,I edited comments because I wanted to add these points after having this pillow a week now and having the best sleeps,thank you

This pillow is very expensive, but worth every dollar. My neck has never been so supported (as a life long side sleeper). Highly recommend to all side sleepers

The detail suggests the user can add or remove material to get the right fit. I did not find that. There is not enough filling for me. I an 6’’4”. Otherwise it really is a great pillow. The shape works well for a side sleeper. It is comfortable.

This pillow is perfect for sleeping on your side. I did add a little more fill to puff it up a bit. It helped fixed a sore shoulder that I usually got when I slept with my old pillow.

I love this pillow but am very upset that after owning it for 3 months, I'm still not able to put a pillow case on it!! The company won't ship to Canada. Very annoying indeed! I can't even find someone to make one for me. I'm at a loss. Wish it came with a pillow case!!!
