Customer Review: Continues to save my marriage!
Summary: 5 Stars
This wedge continues to save my marriage, as it has all but completely stopped me from snoring. I've tried nasal strips, throat sprays, etc., and none of them worked. Elevating my upper body when I sleep (like this wedge does) has reduced my snoring by about 98%. The 2% of the time that I do continue to snore, it's usually because I've slid down on the wedge so I'm sleeping horizontally again. I actually use a contour pillow in conjuction with this wedge.
I also purchased a foot wedge, but do not use it as much. Both of these products also helped with some back problems I was having. I get the best nights sleep using these, and that's saying a lot when you have a nagging back problem.
This one is rather large and bulky, which is good for me because I'm a big person, but for anyone normal sized or small, you could easily use a narrower one. I've even taken mine on vacation (driving -- not flying or cruising/sailing), but I'm currently on the look out for a nice, inflatable model so that I can more easily stow it. This one does work okay if you use one of those storage shrinking bags (where you suck the air out of the bag). The wedge springs right back into shape when you open the storage bag.
I highly recommend this product.

I had one of these many years ago that over time (20+ years) just fell apart and had been searching for a replacement. I found a few places on-line where I could order a custom made wedge for roughly 2 to 3 times the cost of this item - more than I thought it was worth. I was pleased to find this item on Amazon at a much more reasonable price. The foam is a bit stiffer than the previous one that I had, but after 1-2 days it was not a problem. It was well packaged - wrapped in a plastic bag inside of the shipping box - so no chance to get wet as some others had complained. I highly recommend.Customer Review: A waste of money

I recently purchased this wedge after my doctor informed me that I have advanced reflux and changes in the lining of my esophagus. He encouraged me to either lift the legs of the head of my bed on bricks, etc., or to purchase a wedge. I thought the wedge would be a better solution, so I went on-line to research wedges. I chose this wedge due to the multiple positive reviews, but I simply can't believe that people can sleep on it. The package arrived very quickly, and I tried it out the first night it arrived. I found the angle of the wedge to be too high. Throughout the night I slid down the wedge, and there is no give to it so I woke up multiple times throughout the night. I found it impossible to lie on my side as well. Research shows that only a six inch rise is necessary to relieve reflux symptoms, so my advice would be to purchase one that is only six inches in height. Also, this is not a returnable item. Something which was never brought to my attention, so consider yourself warned.Customer Review: No reflux for me

I had terrible heartburn anytime I would Lie flat. I initially placed risers under the head of my bed to keep the acid down but I kept sliding down the bed and it was very difficult to sleep. I ordered the bed wedge. It came very quickly and I began using it immediately. It took a while to get used to sleeping on it but I dont get the heartburn anymore and I can finally get a full nights sleep. It is also great for when I want to sit up in bed and read or watch a little television.
