Lancashire Textiles Orthopaedic Batwing Shaped Neck & Back Support Pillow for Help with Cushioning and Sitting Complete with White Removable Pillowcase

Ordered this for my dad, very soft and very good quality. Pillow case is easy to fit you just have to fold in half and insert into pillow case. Very comfortable as well

Nice pillow however I did expect it to be a little firmer. It's still a good pillow and provides nice support at a sensible price.

Ordered this for my ninety-four-year-old dad who was suffering from neck pain due to arthritis. He says it is supper comfortable on his chair and has helped with his neck pain. Due to medical problems my dad must stay propped up in bed and can't lie flat, he normally uses extra standard pillows but having found this pillow comfortable on the chair/settee in the living room, he decided to have another one to keep on the bed. He says it gives him the support he needs and is very comfortable to sleep with. Only negative is the tiny zip opening for the cover, this makes it extremely difficult to get the cover over the pillow and unless you really take your time then the zip can easily be broken on the cover, which is very thin, and flimsy given the price. Ideally the cover should either be a thicker cotton and with a longer zip opening. Pillow is well made but the removable cover quality does let it down a little given the price. However, based on my dad's comments he says he would recommend. Afterall, he doesn't have to fit and/or remove and refit the cover.

It arrived poorly packed so the parcel was torn, luckily no damage was done. The pillows arrive vacuum packed so might need a few days to fill out. They do seem very soft and certainly don’t give orthopaedic support. If they don’t fill out and firm up I might return them. Overpriced for the quality.

Lovely and comfortable , and great for my painful back

I have a very bad back and a few discs have gone in my lower back. My physio said I needed a cushion behind me in my chair to give me better posture because I can’t stand up for long as I’ve also had a stroke and lost the use in my left side. I used to have a v pillow but I thought I would try one of these and I’m really glad I have, it is ever so comfortable and it stops me from slouching in my chair, and it has helped ease the pain in my back too. Over all I think for what it is the price was well worth it.

Disappointed Very spongy not like it seems firm and supportive in the picture. Lay on it and u sink into the pillow Not worth the money sorry! The whole point of this pillow is to not be a cloud soft and squishy but firm supports you and your back. 0 supports, full of fluffy air like cotton wool so no weight to it. Will be sending it back. Unless I put a hole in it and re stuff it which is exactly what it needs.

I chose this batwing design because it looked like would be comfy and meet my needs perfectly and it does, so far. I can't give 5 stars because I don't know how long it's going to stay 'puffed up' but it feels like it won't flatten out any time soon. The pillowcase it comes with is very easy to put on because there is a nice long zip on one side which creates a good sized opening to get the pillow into. Worth the money so far so I'd say give it a try
