CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 3.5 based on 6 reviews)
| Good Support by Mary Todd (Baltimore) 4 Stars August 22, 2009 I have a CPAP--on a top shelf in my closet. I have a dental device for apnea--on a top shelf in my medicine cabinet. I'm not good at sticking to things. I bought this pillow at full price having seen it recommended in a magazine like Prevention, I think. First 3 or 4 nights, I hated it. I paid a lot for it, however, and for a change kept at it. Now I don't want to sleep without it. It works for me--lots of support and the stiff neck subsided. I like the angle at which it keeps my head. If you get it, be SURE you read how to use it. I'd recommend it, although like other things for mild apnea, it takes practice. I don't know if I still snore because my partner can't stay awake long enough to listen!
| | should be a money back gaurantee... by Joanne M. Bussiere (Oakland CA) 1 Stars August 07, 2009 This was a birthday gift-pricey at that and honestly...it does not work and is most uncomfortable. I understand the theory behind it but once I am asleep the pillow does not magically keep me on my side. I roll back onto my back and the trumpets sound again.
| | Who would have thought it... by David Clifton (Westerville, OH USA) 5 Stars August 02, 2009 I bought this pillow after reading a review in the WSJ about a year ago. My father has always been a notorious snorer and I dreaded the thought of my wife suffering the same plight as my Mom has.
My wife mocked me at first -- "it looks like the Flying Nun's habit." (and it does). But we have throw pillows that mask the pillows shape nicely now and the aesthetics have been fine once we figured out that trick.
A year later, and much more restful sleeps for the both of us, she bought another one of them for me on sale this week. Good deal and we both love the results.
I have been a back sleeper for decades -- took me about a week to getting used to sleeping on my side which is what this pillow really encourages well. Honestly, if I would have reviewed it after week 1, not sure I would have rated it so highly. Now I have trouble at 4 star hotels with regular pillows. Go figure. And who would have thought it.
I obviously would buy this pillow again, and so would my wife. Thanks to the good doctor who invented it and to Brookstone for marketing it.
| | I could not use it, I can not return the pillow by Moe Kermani 1 Stars July 22, 2009 It is very difficult to get use to it, very poor quality, not worth the money
| | all right by me !!! by Matthew G. Sherwin (last seen screaming at Amazon customer service) 5 Stars June 27, 2009 Brookstone's SONA anti-snoring pillow really makes a difference. I've been told that I snore loudly when I sleep--by some friends sleeping over who were not exactly happy about it. Anyway, I shopped around and I found this pillow; and it makes all the difference in the world.
It does take some getting used to; the shape of the pillow is downright bizarre the first few times you simply glance at it. However, it manages to keep my head, neck and even my jaw at just the proper angles so that I don't snore and any overnight guests can actually get a night's sleep! I've even been told that I snore so loud that I could wake the dead--but when I use this pillow my overnight guests never complain to me the next morning. The best way to use it is to sleep on your side with your head between one of the two "resting places" as shown in the picture up above on this webpage.
It comes with one pillowcase but if you like this pillow I would get at least one extra pillowcase. In my particular case it's preferable to my having surgery to correct a problem that might cause me to snore; but ask your doctor to find out what's best for you.
As far as sleep apnea is concerned, you should definitely discuss this with your doctor. Sleep apnea can be serious. You can always research sleep apnea on the web, but there's no substitute for discussing this with a doctor who knows your particular circumstances very well.
Overall, this pillow is terrific for me and I highly recommend it for anyone who has a problem with snoring (it can drive even the most loyal of spouses crazy). This pillow can also help people with mild sleep apnea as long as their doctor approves of it for that use.
