Poper 2nd Gear August 23, 2007 Share August 23, 2007 Recently, due to bad pillow support, I've been waking up often in the night and woke up with ache neck/shoulder. Thus, I'm looking for a good support pillow. So far, I found 2 pretty good ones - TEMPUR vs CANNON Both seem to have pretty solid support as I tested them but the price of a TEMPUR is 2x that of a CANNON ($250+ vs $120+). However, the TEMPUR "sponge" is definitely denser than CANNON although CANNON is much denser than normal pillow already. I'm torn apart.. is TEMPUR ultra density an overkill? Should I pay that kind of price? Isn't CANNON good enough? Both are from USA anyway. Any real-life experience to share? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nkps 1st Gear August 23, 2007 Share August 23, 2007 TEMPUR should be the one who started these so called memory pillow and claim to be what NASA dunno what lah.... i m using Jean Perry, it's very OK for me... alternatively u may want to custom make pillow... not cheap though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poper 2nd Gear August 23, 2007 Author Share August 23, 2007 Yeah yeah... TEMPUR is the NASA thingy company.. Precisely, becoz of that, I feel that they may be over-pricing themselves. Why on earth do I need NASA-standard pillow? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fcw75 Hypersonic August 23, 2007 Share August 23, 2007 I using Tempur, got different thickness to suits your requirement. No neckache for me since I started using it. Really good stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madsumm 1st Gear August 24, 2007 Share August 24, 2007 Go for Tempur. I did try all kinds of cheaper alternatives, but still , something is a missed. Like the smell, density, shape..etc.. something will not be right. Tempur in a way, still is one of the best in that. If somehow u feel that Cannon suites u, get it. However, if u still got issues later, u will spend the 250 and get the Tempur later anyway, that will set u back near 400 right? Yes, a lot will feel spending 250 on a pillow is crazy. Just work out the hours u spend on that pillow a day and how u wake up the next day, its all worth it.... my 2c. Rgds PS: I got Tempur due to neck and shoulder injuries I had. Never looked back since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vidz 6th Gear August 24, 2007 Share August 24, 2007 with Tempur also... was comtemplating initally also ($250 vs $10 market type) but then thought how much time i spent in (and on) the car and how much time i spend on the pillow... the answer is clear... a good night sleep is under rated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinshino Neutral Newbie August 24, 2007 Share August 24, 2007 Hi Poper Not sure if you have considered sea horse brand. They have 2 contoured pillows. One is the memory space pillow which is harder and other same shape but softer. Would recommend the softer one. You can take a look and feel it at their outlets. I have been using for more than 2 years, no neckaches. Cost about 39 or 49 sing dollars. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
