How thick is the firm pillow? I am a side sleeper and I need a thick firm pillow.Anyone know how thick these firm pillows are?

I can't see too many people liking the low loft to be honest. Firm and high loft gives the best support IMO.

The queen size firm pillow is about 3.5-4 inches tall. I am a side sleeper as well and I find the height to be just right.

The queen size firm pillow helped me. I'm a side sleeper and had a pinched nerve in my neck. The pillow helped but, now one is higher than the other. I did rotate the pillows weekly. I prefer the higher pillow now.

The manufacturer's website-malouffinelinens.com-has pictures to show the height of the high and low loft pillows.

As a side sleeper I can say that while it is firm it contours to you so you get even support. Your shoulder and hip will sink in to it so your back actually ends up in a good position despite the fact that it feels firm. It also softens up a bit where you sleep over the first month or so but not so much that it is a valley or anything. I would actually recommend it for a side sleeper.

There is literally no way ANYONE could answer that. They are filled with feathers. how full? Full. Are they squishy? Yes. Do they confirm to your shape? Absolutely. Are they thick? Yes, more than some, less than others. Are they firm? I wouldn't recommend building a house on them. But then again, they are pillows. They are good pillows, for an exceptional price. Buy them, or don't, but if you need a question answered, think about what your asking, because yours is so vague, no one can answer it.

Yes it should work for a stomach sleeper...but as I said in my review its quite a firm/hard pillow, I'm a side sleeper and usually have my arm under the pillow. I had to remove the 3/4" foam piece from the pillow to make it lower. I am finding the pillow is getting softer the more I use it or I getting use to the pillow??? I bought mine from a CPAP supply store and they have a no return policy.... I not sure what Amazon's policy is on returns..... But basically I personally WOULD NOT BUY ANOTHER ONE. You may find it the greats thing since sliced bread.... I can still get my mask to leak as I must move around a lot while sleeping.

I use these pillows for side sleeping and back sleeping, too. They are comfy both ways for me!

I needed a pillow to support my neck when sleeping. It was too firm for me.

I usually sleep on my stomach, sometimes on my side. They are firmer but thinner than a conventional pillow, so sleeping on my stomach they are perfect. When I sleep on my side I top them with a regular pillow.

The pillow is about 3-4 inches thick and it keeps it shape. No fluffing needed. I love this pillow and refuse to sleep without it. By the way, I'm not even pregnant. I just love the stability that this pillow provides. Men & Women can use it.

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!

I still have the one that I had from some 30 years ago. It hasn't fallen apart yet and it doesn't smell or anything. I don't remember when the other one died but it's been gone awhile and I think it went into the dryer or something one to many times and just crumbled. That was in the days when I put everything in the dryer. The one's I bought in the last few years I hope to last me the rest of my life. But I don't have a specific answer for you. But I will say this..shop around...these pillows can be found under various names with different covers but they are all quite similar and the savings can be over $100 a pillow. Next there are what they call lofts (how firmly the pillow will hold your head) and also thicknesses which are more important for how you sleep. A side sleeper usually needs a higher pillow while a back sleeper needs a lower pillow but probably more firm. I myself am a side sleeper and I like the medium density (loft) when I can find it. The firm are too intense for me. I've bought high loft plush queen size and I've bought high loft medium queen size and I've bought low loft plush queen size and I'm happy with all of them but my favorite is the high loft medium which are hard to find. I've only ever returned the firm ones.

The 4 of these pillows I have purchased have been a rather firm and heavy foam, and firmer than most regular pillows I've had, but definitely not "hard as a rock." They softened quite a bit after they warmed up from sitting outside in the box as well. Try it out for a couple of nights - I would return it for a replacement if it seems unreasonably hard.

I have two of these pillows and have had them for quite awhile. I measured the two ends which should be more like their original size. They measure 2 to 2 1/2 inches thick. I wanted a really thin pillow so it wouldn't flex my neck forward. It fits right in that sweet spot between my neck and shoulder. I got the second one so that if something happened to the first I wouldn't be without it.

I am not a side sleeper so won't be able to give the right guidance here. I sleep on my back and this mattress is really great and perfect from compression perspective. After a month of sleeping, all I can say us that I do not have lowe back pain any more. I hope it remains like that. Also to mention that my wife sleeps on side and she has not complained either. Said that I assume that this mattress could potentailly support side sleepers also.

I am also a side sleeper, 5'7" medium build, female... I found the HIGH loft to be too flat!! I cant imagine how thin the low loft would be.

Pretty thick, no clue what kinda foam. the only issue from a sitting perspective is enough back pillows and them moving around a bit - but pretty easy to resolve. The bottom cushion that you sit/sleep on is thick and nice.

Well, depends on how you use it. Not a travel pillow -- too long, probably ~20". It's firm. I sleep on it every night as I sleep on my back, but it may be too hard for a side sleeper. Good luck!

Hi, the answer is not very. I was looking for a much firmer pillow. However, if you are looking for one that is not, this is the pillow for you. Best.
