I came to the Tempur-Pedic Comfort Pillow as my third pillow option after buying a Deluxe Tempur-Pedic mattress. When I first purchased the mattress, I bought two quality down pillows, because down was what I had always slept on, and what I preferred. However, because I sleep higher on the Tempur mattress than on a standard coil, I found that the compressibility of the down pillows resulted in horrible neck support when sleeping on my side.
I then bought two Tempur-Pedic neck pillows, extra thick. Those were great for sleeping on my side, but dreadful when on my back, since they were so thick. I thought about using one down pillow for my back, and switching to a neck pillow for my side, but I found that would require my actually waking up to switch pillows every time I changed position. I couldn’t envision going to all that trouble, so I ended up returning the neck pillows.
I stuck with the down for a while after that, but found I was getting increasing neck stiffness upon waking. I went back to the bedding store to try other pillow models, not certain of what I wanted. I found that the Comfort Pillow combined the best of the characteristics I was looking for. Unlike the Tempur neck pillows, the Comfort Pillow can be molded to change shape and thickness. You can make it flat for comfort while lying on your back, or you can fluff it up to make it thick, which provides great neck support when on your side. Down fluffs up wonderfully, but it compresses to a fraction of its thickness the moment your head touches it. The Comfort Pillow keeps its thickness until you change its shape to flatten it out again, but has enough give so that it doesn’t feel like a rock under your head.
On the negative side, it still doesn’t offer quite the supreme neck support as the Tempur neck pillows for side sleeping, but the versatility of the Comfort Pillow more than makes up for it. Also, it doesn’t have the “ahh” factor that a good down pillow has. (Whenever I first sink into a down pillow, I go “ahh.”) But again, the overall comfort and support make me appreciate the Comfort Pillow more in the long run.
One other point to keep in mind: supposedly the Comfort Pillow is made to look more like a conventional pillow for those concerned about the design of their bedroom. It looks more conventional than a Tempur neck pillow, to be sure, but it is still a dense lump of foam, and it does not fluff up nearly as much as a down pillow. Thus, it doesn’t do much for my duvet/pillow design. I find I use my down pillows as decoration during the day, storing the Comfort Pillows in the closet.
On the whole, though, these are great pillows, and I highly recommend them to anyone who has a Tempur-Pedic mattress. They complete the Tempur “experience” quite nicely. Since I have never tried them on a conventional mattress, I cannot comment on their performance in that setting.
