Is "ATLAS-T Pillow" worth $140?

While following the trail of pillows in the mist of information (and misinformation) that is the internet, I came upon the "ATLAS-T Pillow":

Like so many concepts, it seems to have merit - but, $140 worth, I don't know. Has anyone here any experience that might help in evaluating it?

Thanks,

I was thinking of carving up my wedge pillow to look something like that, to alleviate the pressure on my shoulder. Thanks for the link.

I don't know... is ANY pillow worth $140? Not in my book. I'd pay $50 to try a buckwheat/millet pillow before I buy that thing.

I just bought a 20 KG bag of buckwheat hull for 10$ and 4 zippered pillows at Wall-Mart, another 10$. That makes less than 4.50 per pillow as you can easily make 5-6 pillows with 45 pouds of buckwheat hull.

Really comfortable, you can give each pillow the shape you want.

I am inclined to agree. Yet, it may be seen by some as a bargain - the manufacturer, I found, has a list price of $370 for it.

The only thing that might make a pillow worth $140 is if it came with someone of interest resting their head upon it.

Well, quite frankly, this pillow makes no sense to me whatever in terms of ergonomic support--with or without cpap. The shape appears all wrong. The price is totally outrageous. IMO you should get a few cheap pillows as described on other threads and experiment, as noted above..
