QIQIHOME Slim Sleeper - Natural Latex Foam Pillow, Extra Thin, Ventilated, Low Profile, 23 X 15 X 2.7inch

If you are expecting a normal pillow then think again. This is more like a head support as used traditionally in Japan. It's just a few centimetres deep and is firm. It's the only thing I can comfortably use because my spine wants to be straight in bed. I do a lot of yoga and this is why I use this. A traditional pillow puts a crook in my neck. If you are western person with bad posture and a crook in the neck then steer well clear of this. Until you do a few months of yoga to straighten your spine

While this pillow is a good quality latex, it was too firm and hard for me. When I laid my head on it there was barely any give at all and tended to bother my neck. I returned it, and I will look for another pillow that has a little more give.

I have neck/shoulder issues that flair when I lay down. Fluffy pillows are the absolute bane of my existence. I either need the thick sturdy pillows for side sleeping or super flat pillows for back sleeping. I've tried for years and years to find a proper replacement pillow as my flat pillow, to be blunt, was from my childhood and is probably as old as I am (and since I'm staring middle age right in it's face that's not a good thing). Eventually the worst happened and I lost it on a trip. This was the perfect replacement. Perfectly flat, and despite my fears, not much give. It's the perfect amount of support for my poor abused neck. Only negative was it had a slight chemical/factory smell that went away after being aired which it needs anyway since it comes compressed.

The pillow is supposed to be 2.7" thick. It is barely 2". This is after letting it expand for 24 hours after receiving it in its compression wrapping. It is also extremely firm. Not at all like the soft sponginess typical of latex foam.

Well made slim pillow. So many boast how thick and soft, but I can’t sleep on a thick pillow and glad to find this one. Prefer latex to feather or padding. A bit of a smell at first but it soon went away. Nice quality and will have many good nights sleep.
