I've had the body pillow for a couple of weeks now. There really is no other pillow type that it can be compared to. It is heavier than any other material type of pillow. It is amazingly comfortable to snuggle up on. Very soft, and has that "squishiness" feeling of Tempur, it's almost like hugging onto some kind of gel filled pillow more than foam. I'm REALLY enjoying this pillow. Rather expensive for just a pillow, but I have to say, I think it's well worth the price.
