CPAP Pillow

Post by SC » Wed Jun 25, 2008 2:40 pm

Has anyone tried the CPAP pillow from Contour Living?

I'm interested in results to see if this really helps.

I tried searching the posts to see if there is already information on this pillow Or others like it, but I couldn't ffigure out how to search for a keyword. Sorry.

I bought that CPAP pillow from Contour Living and I didn't like it.
Although the idea is good, the pillow is so thin that whenever I used it my shoulder hurt. I wouldn't recommend it.

If you'd like to try something for free before plunking down $45 to $65, you might want to check out this thread.

I've given out 60 patterns by now and gotten some good feedback, so it might be worth trying. If it doesn't work, you're not out much.

I got it from her and I'm going to make one.

Tried one a few months ago. Did not like it at all. Thin, but most of all didn't work as advertised for keeping your mask in place, in fact it was worse than a regular pillow in that aspect.

I was disappointed, because it looked like the perfect solution.
I was able to return it though, through ContourLiving.

Definitely not worth it!
