Unlike common rectangular pillows, this one's patented shape and firm foam places your head and spine in perfect alignment as you lie on your side, positioning you for a full night of restful sleep. Ideal for those who prefer firmer pillows, it is shaped like a candy cane and the pillow has a long section that supports your upper and lower back, while its shorter section tilts your head back, keeping your air passageway open which reduces snoring. An "ear well" on both sides of the pillow's surface takes pressure off your ear. The pillow is also ideal for taking a nap while sitting upright in an automobile. Made from firm 5"-thick hypoallergenic foam, the pillow's poly/cotton cover is removable and machine washable. Designed for sleepers 5'4" to 6'4" tall. 26" L x 18" W. (2 1/2 lbs.)
