Its hard to find a pillow that will truly give your head and neck the support that it needs to carry you through the entire night without waking up and finding that your head is stuck in a hole in the center of a pillow and that your head is aching and that your neck has a severe cramp in it.  An if that's not bad enough you wake up your mate while your violently shaking your pillow in a wild attempt to fluff it up.  But, not with this pillow.  It actually holds its shape with the weight of your head and it maintains it shape so its also supporting your neck.  I'm glad I gave it a try!
