This particular pillow is very comfortable, with lightweight foam beads inside a thin covering. The covering allows the beads to shift when the user moves their head slightly, so it will be more comfortable than a pillow that doesn't give. Also, the foam beads are much, much lighter than the solid memory foam or buckwheat hulls that I have found in other such pillows. It doesn't feel much heavier than an inflatable pillow, and is much nicer than one, because the foam beads don't make the crinkling noise associated with a plastic inflatable pillow.
The downside is that the thin cloth covering, which allows the beads to move freely, doesn't look very durable. If given to a young child, I would bet that the back seat of the car would be full of foam beads in about three seconds. Happily, I am not a young child, and have used this very comfortable pillow for many months with no problems whatsoever. It comes with a vinyl case, in which I store the pillow when not in use, avoiding the tears and damage associated with being thrown in the trunk. Otherwise, it gets no gentle treatment from me. If it does begin to tear, I plan to put the whole pillow in a nylon stocking as a quick/cheap repair, so I won't get little balls of foam all over my car. But for now, I'll enjoy the pillow for allowing me to snooze the miles away when it's my husband's turn to drive.A very long over seas trip, economy class, YIKES! This neck pillow was awesome. Much softer and more comfortable than the blow ups. Well worth the money!
Buy Lewis N. Clark Mood Neck Pillow Now
We used one of these on our trip to Brazil. The flight was long and sleeping on an airplane is never comfortable, especially with one's head lolling about.We had two kinds of pillow: this one and two inflatables we had been given as a "going on vacation present". The inflatables were more supportive and were adjustable depending on how much air you wanted in them. The Lewis N. Clark pillow was just squishy and, admittedly, a stress reliever when playing with it in your hands whilst waiting for hours upon missing one's flight. :)This type of soft bead squishy neck pillow molds comfortably around my neck and cradles it in warmth. The aches from arthritis stop and my muscles relax. I sleep with this at night, also as it prevents strain and headaches.I've had the worst time finding pillows for my neck. I was in a car accident in '95 and received a pretty bad case of whiplash. At least for me, this pillow forms to my neck and is soft enough on the back of my head (I've also had multiple brain surgeries) so it doesn't cause a problem that way. It's also summer now, and I'm finding that it's not too hot. I do wish it had a place to put a small gel packet for ice or heat, but we can't have everything now can we? This is just about as perfect as it gets though. I'm so glad I bought it. I'm buying a second one just in case the first one gets a hole, or something catastrophic happens to it. My luck I wouldn't be able to find one again.
