OMG I could not believe that I actually slept on my back! I had tried for years without success, but this pillow made it happen. The gentle curve supports my neck and shoulders in a way that feels natural and super comfortable and combined with the coolness of the satin pillowcase it is a combination that can’t be beat. I first discovered its value after an operation. With a goose down pillow under my knees and the NextSleep back pillow elevated on a goose down pillow, I was able to drift off easily. That moment showed me how helpful back sleeping can be, whether for recovery or simply to give your body a different kind of rest. Most nights I rely on the NextSleep Side Sleeper Pillow, which I love and which has become my nightly essential. My partner is a natural back sleeper and swears by the back pillow, so I am planning to buy another one so I can alternate between the side sleeping and back sleeping pillow. This way I can continue training myself to sleep comfortably on my back, which I know can be very valuable to do especially as we grow older and the need arises due to health situations. And there is a bonus benefit because when you are on your back with no pressure or friction on your face it keeps sleep wrinkles at bay, and it doesn’t get better than that. You can tell that NextSleep put a lot of time and effort into the design of their pillows and pillowcases because perfection does not come easy. They nailed it! The satin cover for the back pillow was extremely well-designed considering the shape of the pillow, it must have had many iterations to finally get to a fit that is just right. I have washed the covers by placing them in a bag for delicates, running them on the delicate cycle, and air‑drying them. They come out clean with no shrinkage and are easy to put back on. I think a NextSleep pillow would make an ideal holiday gift. It will be a gift that keeps on giving, night after night, bringing undeniable comfort and great appreciation. The recipient will be forever grateful because it turns ordinary sleep into something special, making sweet dreams even sweeter. Read more
I am loving my NextSleep back sleeper pillow! I'm super picky when it comes to pillows, and this is perfect for me. First of all, it's comfortable, not too soft, not too hard, just right. I like to put skin creams on my face at night, and this allows me to sleep on my back and not rub the lotion off on the pillow at night. I also fall asleep faster when I'm on my back. The quality is excellent, and I expect it to have a long life. This is a family-owned business, and they are very customer-friendly. I recommend them highly! Read more
I have been in the market for a new pillow for a very long time. I suffer from neck and shoulder pain because I am a back sleeper. I finally found the perfect pillow for me. My neck pain is gone and my sleep pattern has improved. It stabilized my neck, head and shoulders so no more leaning my head to the side putting stress on my neck.I did not detect any initial smell and throughout the night it kept it's shape and felt cool. I contacted customer service to get a second pillow case and they were super friendly and professional. Highly recommend this pillow. Read more
I've been trying to switch to being a back sleeper, which isn't easy. I've been using a different brand pillow for awhile now, and kept thinking I should try something new to see if I could be more comfortable on my back, and I'm so glad I did! This pillow is amazing, it's incredibly comfortable, it cradles my head perfectly and keeps me from rolling on my side. I have had some really great sleep since switching to this product, I highly recommend this comfy little pillow!!! And the customer service is top notch! The zipper on my pillow was stuck, and the company was very responsive and went above and beyond to provide a solution. I couldn't be happier with my purchase!!!! Read more
The absolute best back pillow available! We got a split king adjustable base bed, and I decided I was determined to train myself to sleep on my back. Slightly elevating the top and elevating my feet as far as I could really helped me stay on my back throughout the night, but I found that my neck was so sore from my head dropping to either the right or the left. I started wedging pillows on either side of my head and that helped somewhat, but the pillows would always move throughout the night and it would be the same problem. This pillow keeps my head secured and gives me a place to rest my head slightly to the right or the left. It even comes with an extra pad to make the pillow higher, but I prefer a slim pillow, so I don’t add the extra pad. It also comes with a satin pillowcase that fits it perfectly, and there was a card in the package saying there’s a 100 day Sleep trial included and you could also email to get an extra satin pillowcase. I was surprised when the president and CEO wrote me back immediately asking for my address so he could ship the extra case. Extremely good customer service and a very quality product. As their description states, I did not find any weird smells from the pillow at all, which is amazing. I know it’s definitely on the higher end for a pillow, but I would say it is worth every penny!

Purchasing this pillow helped me to finally fall asleep! After a horrible fall (which resulted in breaking my shoulder) left me with very few options to find comfort when sleeping. I tried EVERYTHING and nothing worked. Then, I the discovered the NextSleep back sleeper pillow. The ergonomics of this pillow is unique. It cradled my head in a position that helped me stay in position while sleeping and while my break began to mend. I’ve been using this pillow for almost 1 year and I’m happy to say that it has become the pillow that I use every night (even though my break has healed). I no longer need to sleep on my back so I’m happy to share that it is wonderful for side sleepers too! This pillow has been a game changer for me! I highly recommend it! It’s worth the price!
