Title: FINALLY I FOUND SOMETHING THAT CRADLES MY NECK AND PERFECTLY SUPPORTS MY HEAD! I LOVE IT.
Review: A miracle has happened today because I actually love this thing!MY STORY:I have always been a back sleeper using NO PILLOW. Then 2 or 3 years ago I started needing more neck support. Now, I find it’s substantially more comfortable for me with some kind of a pillow so I tried lots of different feather, feather and down, and 100% down pillows. I tried Tempur, My P\\\ow (H A T E D it even after I sliced it open and removed some of the filling so that it wasn’t so puffy but that still didn’t help and I still hated it), down alternative (horrible), and on and on. I just have not been able to find a pillow that I love or even like that:A. Doesn’t go flat within an hour;B. Doesn’t curl up around my head like earmuffs; andC. Supports my neck.Anyhow, I tried creating my own neck support gizmo by cutting a 3″ x 6″-ish piece of memory foam from a mattress topper. It was better than nothing but every morning I’d wake up with huge knots in my hair from the stupid piece of foam. I knew there had to be a better solution. Frustrated, I finally started doing some research online to see what’s available now since my memory foam/foam rubber idea was just not working any more. I read hundreds of reviews for all kinds of cervical pillows/rolls and decided to try this one. Even though I did my homework, I wasn’t holding out hope that this would be my salvation.First of all, when the box arrived, I thought it was empty. It was so light, I didn’t think there was anything inside at all, surely not a pillow-type thing, but I opened the box and sure enough – there it was. Hmmm… no weight whatsoever to this thing so how good could it be? Well, ha ha on me because it is great!THE PROS:Nice presentation in the plastic bag and the blue zipper cover.Didn’t have any odor or chemical smell that I was expecting, like so many of the other pillows I’ve bought or read reviews about.The zipper cover or case is not hard or crispy or plastic-like, and it’s quite handy and possibly sweat-proof. I’ll find out in a month when it gets to be 100° here in L.A.I removed it from the plastic out bag, simply stuck the whole thing inside a pillow case and positioned it comfortably under my neck. It keeps my head at the correct and most ideal height.THE CONS:I have only one: I do have to position it either all the way to the left toward the other side of the bed or all the way to the right (hanging off the bed) because it is too long for me and I don’t want it encasing my ears. My solution is that I am going to cut it into either 3 equal pieces (that way I’ll end up with 2 replacements for when this one gets flat or old or whatever) or I’ll cut it just in half so I’ll have one extra for when the first half gets old and flat. Remember, it just has to fit under the neck – it’s not like it’s a sandbag keeping water from seeping into the house and it is not one of those door jamb sealers. It’s for cradling the neck which this does perfectly – it’s just too long for me.All in all, I am so happy that I bought this OPTP Original McKenzie Cervical Roll. My neck feels better and better every morning. Can’t wait to cut it into 2 or 3 equal pieces so it fits perfectly under my head.Totally happy with this purchase.

Title: Excellent Neck Support and Sleep Quality
Review: I’ve been using the McKenzie Cervical Roll for several weeks, and it has made a noticeable difference in my sleep comfort and neck pain. I simply slide it into my pillowcase along the bottom edge, and it provides gentle yet firm support that keeps my neck aligned throughout the night.The foam has just the right amount of give. It is not too soft and not too firm. The removable cover is also easy to clean. I appreciate that it works well whether I’m sleeping on my back or side. Since I started using it, I’ve had fewer headaches and less stiffness in the morning.This is a simple and effective solution for anyone dealing with neck discomfort or looking to improve their sleep posture. Highly recommend.

Title: Simple cervical roll that helps with neck alignment
Review: I’ve been using this cervical roll while sleeping to help keep my neck aligned, and overall it has been a positive experience. It’s a simple foam roll that goes inside your pillowcase and supports the natural curve of your neck rather than replacing your pillow entirely.The support is noticeable, especially when sleeping on my back or side. I wake up with less neck stiffness and less tension compared to using a regular pillow alone. The foam feels supportive without being overly hard, and the removable cover is easy to take off and wash.I’ve also started using it while sitting in my recliner when watching TV, and it works surprisingly well there too. It provides consistent neck support and helps prevent my head from tilting forward or to the side during longer viewing sessions.There is a bit of a learning curve. It took a few nights to figure out the right position, and if you move around a lot in your sleep, it can shift and need adjusting. It also feels very basic in terms of design, so don’t expect anything plush or luxurious.Overall, it’s a straightforward and effective solution for both sleeping and sitting. It’s not perfect, but it does what it’s designed to do and has made a real difference for me, which earns it four stars.

Review: I liked the fact this roll fits comfortably under the neck at night to support it so the head does not tilt during sleep leading to stiff neck and cervical disc pain. As a person who sleeps on their side at night I was susceptible to this difficulty without knowing it till I read about the problem and found this roll could help. The product does do what the company says it does and was shipped on time. I would recommend this to fellow side-sleepers like myself who want to alleviate their pain caused by this problem.

Review: Es werden fast 10 Euro an Zollgebühren aufgeschlagen, die bei Übergabe passend gezahlt werden sollen. Hierauf gibt es beim Bestellvogang keinerlei Hinweis. Beim Befühlen der nur in eine dünne Plastikhülle verpackten Ware war schnell klar, dass es sich um ein wabbeliges Produkt handelt. Dass das den vorgegebenen Zweck erfüllt, halte ich dür mehr als fragwürdig.Habe die Annahme verweigert und bin gespannt, ob ich das Geld erstattet bekomme.
