I lurve my memory foam pillow. Sleeping feels like such a treat, and my neck and shoulder issues are significantly reduced thanks to this dude. Contemplating taking it with me on holidays...

Sounds like a dream finding a good pillow.

Shout out to @wscholermann for recommending the one I'm using. Another DT buy that's really paid off!

Which one is that?

I just bought a new pillow because my old one is a pancake and I was getting neck pain. I’m on a Kmart budget so ordered their cheap high profile pillow with a memory foam core.

Bas Philips Gel Infused Memory Foam - Standard, still 37.99 at Harris Scarfe (I'm sure the RRP of 199.99 is rubbish - it goes for like max 60 bucks elsewhere).

It's really worked well so far. I've never really used memory foam before so I have nothing to judge against, hopefully this lasts a while

Nice. I got my memory foam pillow from an op shop (new and in packaging, must have been unsold stock). It was maybe about that much or a bit less.

I found it ok, but over the years it compacted down very flat and firm.

I suspect all pillows go flat over time. If I can get 5 years out of this one I'll be happy.
