the standard (non-contour) pillow is described as 2" thick. I can't imagine a 2" pillow would be tall enough for anyone.Is it thicker in the center?

I have an older version of this pillow and it is about 4.5 to 5 inches thick in the center. It slopes down on the edges. This is a thin pillow compared to most.

It's about 5 1/2" thick in the large central area. The 2" refers to the thickness the compressed pillow is when coming out of the box. It expands fully in a few hours. A confusing presentation for sure and a good question. It's a very comfortable pillow to me, a side and back sleeper. Be sure to look at the price differences for the different sizes and you can save big!

The thickest point on each side is 4". There is a "channel" in the middle that cradles your head such that the 4" are supporting your neck to keep your spine straight. I originally bought my pillow from a chiropractor and have replaced them through the years from his office, but found this one on Amazon and was pleased. If you have neck or back problems, this is a great pillow!

No, it won't be too thick. It's basically like a regular pillow that is very long.

It is NOT a flat pillow. Actually it is a bit fuller than I expected. That having been said, it is a wonderful pillow. I use it in conjunction w/other pillows. Not only would it be great for traveling, but it would be great for a child's primary pillow.

The pillow is pretty thick and hard...too hard for me. I have never used it and have been wanting to sell it on Craigs List. I have had neck surgery and have always liked using a thin down pillow that I could bunch up under my neck for support where I needed it. Want to buy my pillow at a good price?

The pillow is very flat, extremely soft, probably at the most 2 inches with head weight. Unless is folded in half then it would be a little higher. If you need 4 inches this would not work.

The standard pillow is 24in long and 15in wide. My pillow (low plush) expanded to about 5in deep, but I also was not patient and did not allow it to fully expand before starting to sleep on it. The direction say to leave it on a flat surface for 24 hours before use due to being vacuum sealed for shipping purposes, fyi. Actual results may vary. I put mine in a full size jersey pillow case and it has some extra length space, but not much in width. I use it on top of another pillow, as I sleep on my side and it's just a bit too thin to keep my neck straight with my broad shoulders. But I still love it!

The center part is approximately 2-3"; the edges are closer to 5.5" It does squish down a bit, but I had to end up using a different pillow that doesn't push my neck up quite so much. My son has one, too, and he ended up using some down pillows that he prefers. I wrote the original answer in September; however, I am now sleeping on this pillow almost exclusively. The foam has a nice amount of give, once you've slept on it for a week or two. Haven't had the same neck issues that I did before, so I must give it a thumbs up.

Don't know about 1/2" reference, but it is as described: 2-Inch memory foam layer provides comfort and support, helping to eliminate painful pressure points; 2-Inch pillow-top layer provides soft support. All combined, it's 4" thick. In our opinion, it's very comfortable. We really enjoy it.

It is hard to say since it is a concave form that surrounds your head. And the neck portion is a part that is a wedge that extends the pillow. Before I bought from this site I went to the manufacturer and they list dimensions of the pillow and how to measure to know what size you need.other than that I am not sure exactly what the depth is at the back of say your skull to the bed but it isn't at all uncomfortable. I know it's hard to drop this kind of change on a pillow untested but I would say it was my best buy for the year.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2iTtZ2koPJM

Hello, Newpoint? Are you out there? My first thought was that it might be the diameter of the end of the pillow. But, when I measured it seam to seam at the end the diameter was just about 5 and 1/2 inches. The depth seems to be about 6 inches. the only thing I know is that perhaps it has squished out or they need to tell us about that 4". Comfy pillow though. Good luck. If I come up with anything else I will let you know.

If you can find THREE INCHES in this pillow, I would be SHOCKED! More like 2 to 2 and 1/2 at BEST! FAR from what they say (6 inches!)

I find the pillow to be PERFECT!!! its not to thick or to soft. IT IS JUST RIGHT. I've been using it for over a year now and still remains just as new.. it is a lil heavy but in a good way. Its like 3 pillows in 1 bit not with all the thickness of 3 pillows. Trust me when I say it is one of the Best Pillows for your buck. HOPE THIS HELPS :DMichael

No, the pillow is full standard size - I doubt this item is what you're looking for with regard to traveling

Yes I do but remember I have the 7 inch one. A taller one I don't know. I sleep on my side & wrap my arms around another pillow.

Not necessarily. Contact the seller directly if you're unsure of the pillow size. The product description for this specific item is not clear.

It's a good 4 or 5 inches thick. My girlfriend is madly in love with this pillow.
