Customer Reviews of Microdry Luxury Bath Pillow with Memory Foam, White
Customer Review: I agree: One big wet sponge
Summary: 1 Stars
I was so disappointed in this pillow. I have been using my bathtub during recovery from foot surgery. Bathing has consisted of hanging one leg out of the tub to keep the incisions dry. So, I thought that nothing would improve that experience more than a soft, luxurious bath pillow to replace the standard terrycloth one that I couldn't get clean. So, the first day, I relax into the soft "memory foam" cushion and it felt quite good.
Day 2: I sit back. Ewww! It's a big, cold glopping wet sponge. It was not possible to avoid getting it wet and it soaked up as much water as possible. I think it's now been drying for about a week and it is still not dry. It's just sitting on my bathroom floor on a "rag" towel trying to dry. And I live in the desert. It's not humidity that's preventing it from drying. In the words of the other reviewer, IT'S ONE BIG WET SPONGE. Useless. I just ordered a $7.95 terrycloth inflatable one in pink to replace it.
Customer Review: Are You Kiding Me?

I can't top G Ferrandi's earlier review, but just want to add my two cents that this has got to be the most ridiculous excuse for a bath pillow I have ever experienced. It is clear this product was NEVER tested in the lab - or the tub. It absorbs it's weight in water ten times over. And it it fantastic at holding onto that water at length. I used it for the first time over two weeks ago and it is STILL too heavy to stick back to the wall. I'm sure there are some other, excellent applications for a material this absorbent that is so effective at 'not drying out - ever'. It would work really well for floral arrangements for example.
P.S. - By the way, I bought this item from Brookstone - shame on you Brookstone for not posting the review I submitted to your website. So I'm posting it here.
Customer Review: Extremely Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I was so excited when I had ordered this and couldn't wait for it to come in so I could use it!
However, after the first use, I was disappointed. It is very comfortable, if you don't get it wet. If it gets wet, it stays wet for DAYS! It absorbed 3 times its weight in water and even after squeezing it (which tore the memory foam) as much as I could to get all the water out, it still took at least 2 days to dry out completely so I could put the cover back on. I was afraid to leave it on because I didn't want it to mold. I also gave up trying to use the suction cups. The foam was too heavy when it was wet.
It is very hard to use and have it not get wet because then your water is only half full in your tub. I wouldn't recommend this product.
Customer Review: I really like this pillow
Summary: 5 Stars
I've tried several different bath pillows and they just don't seem to fit me or my bathtub. This one definitely did the trick. Inflatable pillows don't 'give' at all. This one squishes down so you can get really comfortable. The inside is foam, but is mostly covered in waterproof material (about 3/4 of the pillow that points down toward the water). The upper 1/4 of the foam is not covered - I'm sure so that the foam can dry out if it should get wet. All of this is covered by a terry cloth cover that I simply take off, so that everything can dry out well. They're always both completely dry by the next day. I guess if you took the pillow, held it under water and completely soaked it, it wouldn't dry out overnight, but it really should never get that wet.Customer Review: Sucktastic
Summary: 1 Stars
I was SOOOOOO exited when I bought this. Mmmm... extra luxury in my antique claw foot tub. As soon as I leaned against it any air in it went out and it filled with water. I noticed on the packaging it actually says not to submerse in water. IT'S FOR A TUB!!! Now I just put it in the tub when company's coming over to make it LOOK fancy. This product is a HUGE failure. If you look at the picture for the product you'll see they have the tub only have full. I suppose, if you don't fill your bath tub all the way, you might like this, otherwise, this pillow is sucktastic. Do yourself a favor and buy the $5 air pillow instead (oh, but get the shell one with multiple suction cups and not the flower on with only one suction cup in the middle... trust me).
