Great at nothing, mediocre at everything.
Wrap-A-Nap was an overall pretty disappointing purchase for me given the price tag of $25 and the company's claims that this reduces sound, can be used as a neck pillow for travel, a lumbar support, and blocks out "all light with its patented design". These are pretty lofty claims for the plushy tube of fleece I received filled with flimsy, ill-distributed stuffing. I tried my hardest to adjust to this pillow, using it for a week straight and just hated it.<br /><br />1. There's not enough loft or volume in the stuffing to use this as a neck pillow or lumbar support. lightly pressing on the wrap-a-nap and it goes completely flat. The modeled photos in the listing should have been red alert for me.<br /><br />2. They claim noise-reducing effects, but even after tightening this as far as it could go on my head I could still hear even the near-silent hum of my bedroom fan. There was no difference in even ambient noise whether or not I was wearing it.<br /><br />3. It blocks light...sort of. If you're comfortable with having a pillow covering your eyes and nose, this is right up your alley. However, I enjoy breathing properly when I sleep so this was a no-go for me. Since it's just a big tube of fleece sewn shut, there's no curvature to it that conforms to your cheekbones. To get the most light-blocking out of it I had to secure it as tightly as possible over my eyes/nose, which put uncomfortable pressure on my eyes.<br /><br />The one claim they made that I feel was factual was the softness of the material. I have a robe with the same color/texture and it is nice and plushy.<br /><br />I would recommend this as a better than nothing sleep mask if the price were lower, but the design is just awful. I think this idea would have worked out much better if it had been filled with a dense foam that actually blocks sound and was formed to fit a human face instead of a potato.
