TLDR...back pain no more on vacation.I have a spinal condition that has prevented me from sleeping on a flat mattress for about the last 12 years. At home, I have an adjustable bed. But when we go on vacation, I'm miserable. I can't sleep and when I get up in the morning I literally have to roll out of bed. It takes a long hot shower & about an hour until I can walk around pain free & standing completely upright. After that I'm good for the rest of the day, pain-wise, but I'm exhausted from not being able to sleep. I've tried propping the pillows to simulate my sleeping position at home...pillows don't stay in place. I've tried AirBnBs with the bed in the corner to try and prop pillows & blankets...that doesn't work either. I've even tried one of those cushions with the arms (like to prop you up while sitting on the floor)...not tall enough, not the right angle & didn't work.But now, holy cow!I warily purchased this wedge pillow set as a last-ditch effort to find some relief and maybe start enjoying my vacations. Not gonna lie, I balked at the price. I'm a cheap bitch & I was afraid it wouldn't work. But I took a leap of faith & landed on both feet (upright & without pain).The first morning I told my friend I had something to show her...I quickly swung my legs over the side & stood straight up off the bed. Her jaw dropped! She had seen me struggle each vacation morning for the last couple of years & couldn't believe the results. Now, I did use a heating pad the first night (as I usually do at home) but each night after I was asleep before I remembered to turn it on.There are several different positions you can arrange the 3 pieces in. I replicated the angle that my bad at home has & it was perfect.You're going to get 3 pieces...the large main piece, the wedge & a small piece. The wedge can be used in combination with the main piece in a couple of different ways to create the perfect angle for you. The small piece can be used as a neck pillow or a prop for your knees (I used it in addition to the hotel pillows). The pieces are firm & the medium gray covers are soooo soft. Plus, the covers unzip for easy removal for cleaning.NOTE: You're going to need a good pair of scissors to open the packaging. I didn't open it until the first night at the hotel. I had to borrow scissors from the front desk. Trust me, you are NOT going to tear into the plastic that these pieces are packaged in. It comes vacuum packed to save shipping space & that plastic is thick. No chance this thing is coming undone in shipping. Don't use a knife for fear of cutting into the pillows.What could make this a better bargain? As I mentioned, it ships vacuum packed. But once you break that seal you won't have the plastic packaging anymore. I'm going to try one of those storage bags that you can vacuum pack to store it in. They make travel ones that you can roll the air out of or some of them come with a kind of reverse pump that pulls air out of the bag. Hopefully that will work because it takes up a lot of room in the car otherwise. If it came with something to return it to the vacuum-packed condition it came it, it would be absolutely perfect. Speaking of the car, I'm looking forward to testing it out to make traveling in the back seat more comfortable. Usually there are 3 of us in the car but only 2 went this year. When we're back up to 3, I will resume my designated place in the back seat (I'm a car sleeper, cannot stay awake if I'm not driving) & I'm curious how it will work. I'm also looking forward to using it on my couch for reading or little cat naps.I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT REGRET THIS PURCHASE!!!!
