Mediflow Fiber The First Original Water Pillow clinically Proven to Reduce Neck Pain Improve Sleep Therapeutic Ideal for

EDITED: After reading about 10 recent reviews I had to edit this one. It is NOT HEAVY.. Actually if you ever had a FIRM Down Pillow I would say the weight is about the same. Swing it around in a pillow fight. Why would you want to do that to a GOOD Pillow that is for sleeping. Want to pillow fight have another polyester or down pillow on bed for that. Propping up in bed. As one reviewer said, Have a couple of NON SLEEP pillows on bed for that. Although I do not find this pillow to be that heavy I would not abuse it by using it for propping. The pillow kept its height and shape all night and look pretty much like it did before I slept on it. I found that I did not have to sleep with my hand under it to prop my head up. My head rested on it as it should and wrapped around my neck supporting my neck. I find to get full support you must make sure the bottom of it is above your shoulders and not under them. Bottom Line, every one has an opinion and knows what works for them and their sleep problems. I do not see this pillow leaking in the near future if treated well. I am a back, side and stomach sleeper and it worked well with any position I was in last night. Great head and neck support and just what it is supposed to do. ORIGINAL Review: I got the product yesterday and could not wait to use it last night. Been waking up in the morning for months with stiff neck and terrible headaches. Although my neck is still a little stiff it is not as stiff as sleeping with out the pillow and headache is gone... I really do feel alot better and more able to face the world this morning. i filled it to medium but think that I might try the firm in a week or so . i slept on a waterbed for years and loved it . But can't risk putting it in the trailer I am living in now. Will definitely assemble it once I finish my Wood frame house. There is just nothing better for a good rest than a waterbed. Would always recommend that there be a regular bed in the spare room for anything but sleep, If you get my drift. Again this pillow is great and i anticipate my neck and headache to disappear soon. Only thing I could recommend to make this pillow 100% perfect is to do the filling with wool instead of polyester fiber polyester fibers do not hold up as well and do not breathes.. Wool breathes and stay cooler than anything else. They say that you can wash and dry the pillow (minus the water, LOL) but I would not recommend that.. I got a pillow protector and with the added pillow case you should have a great feeling and looking pillow for years to come. Read more

I bought this pillow on a whim at my kids' allergy doctor appointment. The office was shared with a chiropractor, and they were have a Christmas special: buy one, get one half off. The desk girls had personally not tried it, nor received any feedback on them. I took it home and tried the medium amount of water recommended. The next night, I tried the most water. The 3rd night the least. On the fourth night I added a little less than their recommended "minimum amount" and was SO SOLD on the product I went back to the doctor office and asked if they would sell me a 2nd at the half off deal. They did! Now I can roll over onto my husband's side of the bed and not get a crick in my neck. BEST INVESTMENT IN YEARS. I had been happy with a previous pillow but had washed it so many times I could not not read the label any more! Where did i buy it?? What brand was it?? I spent a stupid amount of money on over a dozen different types and thicknesses of pillows over the next 6 years and some would work for a short time before I would wake up with a sore neck that would last for DAYS with an accompanying headache. I, like other reviewers here, considered expensive diagnostic tests to figure out what was wrong with ME. Turns out it was just a pillow issue! I have had my pillow now for 6 years and just went on a trip to a humid area for 3 weeks and came back with mold on my pillow case- I shower at night and my hair was still damp in the mornings. I tried spraying the pillow with bleach, which helped but didn't remove the spots entirely. I had a spare in my closet (cuz I dread a possible night's sleep without one, should I ever need a replacement and find them all back ordered or something equally horrific!). I figured the washing machine was worth a shot- I could break out the spare replacement if I had to. The front loading washing machine tried for an hour to spin and drain the last 3 minutes of the cycle and I just finally gave up and let it finish air drying. Next morning I could see that it was a blob of pillow innards in a wad on one end of the case. Oh well! I pulled out the new replacement from the plastic bag in my closet and found that it had another name (panic! A quick check showed they were the same company though: previously "Floating Comfort" by Mediflow. Now just "Mediflow" was printed on the non-removable case), and it was WAY thicker-seeming than my wadded blob I was replacing. However, I now had no alternative (name any commercial, brand name, anchor store brand pillow and chances are I've tried it!) So I slept on it. All I can say is, I was unaware of my head/ neck while sleeping and I have been unaware of my head/ neck during the day all 3 days I have used it. Maybe my older version of the same pillow had just gotten compacted over the last few years of use? I don't know, but I'm coming on here to 1) buy my next replacement and 2) get the little case so maybe I can avoid the mold issue in the future. I literally take my pillow with me on all over night trips or else just anticipate a sore neck/ headache during my trip. Here were my initial concerns: 1) I didn't want to have to replace water weekly/ daily/ monthly -but GOOD NEWS! It only has to be replaced once a year! 2) I didn't want to have to go out and buy fancy water. The water where I live is very hard and even with a filter and softener system it destroys things in short order. But- I can just use water from the tap! No fancy distillation, filters or spring water required! Yay! Additionally, my daughter suddenly developed a sore neck when she turned 18. She was saving all her money up for college, but I told her she needed to spend some of her money on this pillow anyway. She finally broke down and bought it and was instantly glad that she did! So don't assume it's only for us 30-and 40-somethings (and beyond!) It can be beneficial for the younger crowd, too! I followed the directions- I have never had any issues with leaking, and the water level stays consistent until your yearly water swap! Read more
