Is this a good pillow for college?

I would say probably not the best choice. The pillow is very heavy when filled and kind of awkward.

It doesn't matter where you take this pillow. If you need neck and shoulder support, this is the pillow for you. Keep in mind...no pillow fights with it!!! I take mine on vacation with me. Once you get used to sleeping on a water pillow, you won't want a regular pillow again.

I think it's great for college (if budget provided is enough=]). Juz a personal exp.: i have an uninterrupted sleeping after i used the MediF Pillow, and my thought is much clear (may be due to i have a better sleep XD)

I don't see why not. Realize that when you put the water in-it's a lot heavier than a regular pillow. But you won't get neck aches. You don't fill the pillow-start with about 3 liters or so then in the days to follow you'll know if you need more or less. Be sure to get all the air out before you put the cap on.

It is pretty firm. Also flat on one side..I really don't think it would make a good pillow.

Definitely. I bought it for my son to use in his dormitory at school. He is a light sleeper and tells me that he has no problem sleeping at night with it in his room

yes it is...I personally like a low pillow..if you are a two pillow person I would suggest putting another pillow on the bed...but very very comfy

It's not like your home pillow .. That being said I am tsking mine on a 10 day trip to Europe and using it as a sleeping pillow...so yes would be great for Amtrak

I would say a good combination of firm and medium. It's not too firm where you feel like you're snuggling a hard memory foam pillow, but it's not too soft where if you throw your leg over it that it squishes down to nothing. I bought because of spinal surgery. I would suggest to get a cover for it because it is not a soft feeling case it's in.

I find it reasonably firm. Definitely less firm than a box spring on a wooden slab (did that for a semester; don't recommend it), but probably firmer than your average mattress.

1) nope, it's just like any other pillow 2) it's great for people of different sizes. It's a normal, as-expected size in general so if can accommodate different people. In fact, both of my parents use it as well (I got them started on orthopedic pillows :P). My dad is bigger than my mom but they both like their pillows

I have used it as a head pillow but it doesn't really support my head like I would like, it isn't too thick it just isn't that firm, as a body pillow and for the price it's perfect. Hope this helps.

this pillow is for any type of sleepers, I own four of these , I gave my grandson one & he took it to college, I also got him another one for his bed ,when he comes home to visit during break time.I bend this pillow any way, I'm a side sleeper. I had surgery some months ago and I was able to bend it for my comfort at the time. I love it!

The pillow holds it's shape fine. If you are a back sleeper you could really use any pillow, you don't need a special one. If you are a side sleeper this one is good though.

I think it would be too big for that. I'd check Amazon for cervical pillows first. Also it is probably too firm for comfort as it's designed for conforming to the weight of your body at the lumbar region.

I have just needed this for your very question as I torn my meniscus in my knee and am going to be having surgery. I have now been using this pillow every night just for this purpose for over a week now. It is firm yet soft it has been perfect for me. I hope that answers your question and that it will work for you.

It was a gift for my wife. I asked her and she said it is more plush than firm, but firm enough to be supportive. It is not a hot pillow. I got her a pair of the Egyptian cotton pillowcases for it and they are great for temperature.

If you like a softer pillow it may not be for you. It is fairly firm, especially at first. When I first got it I only slept on it half the night for about a week until I broke it in. I would call it medium firm but not so much soft. My dad who LOVES a softer pillow hates this pillow so if you want soft this may not be the one for you. If you want firm it may not be the one for you. Like Goldie Locks found out...It was just right for me (I like medium in the middle of soft and firm)
