Product Review: Wedge Works
Summary: 5 Stars
For reading, watching TV, using a computer, etc. in bed, I've found wedge pillows work best for me . I've had several over the years and this one is definitely the best yet. I'm 6'2" and the dimensions are just about perfect for my purposes. It works very well with just one (regular) pillow propping up my head. It is stiff, strong and surprisingly light. While I haven't had it very long, it seems to be made to last.
I don't know if I'd recommend this for people with GERD, however. As mentioned, it is pretty stiff. That, together with the 12" height, would make it difficult for me to sleep on. Having had GERD for years myself, I tend to think sufferers would be more satisfied with a wedge around half this height for sleeping purposes.
Not to play doctor, but if you need a wedge this high, it would seem that you must have one hellacious case of GERD. If you haven't done so already, you should definitely look into the PPI class of drugs available by prescription and over-the-counter. These have worked very well for me. I currently use Nexium and have no symptoms with no side effects whatsoever (that I know of). Truly a wonder drug for me.
Another use for this pillow (that I wouldn't recommend for GERD victims) is to prop up your knees in order to straighten and relax your back (long side down). (Back pain has proven harder to cure for me, but doing a lot of sit-ups helps considerably.)
Anyway, in all the applications for which I've used this pillow, it has worked very well. I'll also note that it's currently around one-third the cost of some similar products.
Product Review: Works Great!
