Don't fall for the air pillow trick. Treat your head/neck right and you won't be disappointed.

Nemo: What were you thinking? You managed to find the most noisy and slippery fabric for the pillow underside. Exactly NOT what I need for a pleasant night of sleep. An excellent concept, but flawed by very poor material choice.

This pillow worked perfectly for this side sleeper. Only (small) downside: the bottom is a slippery nylon that makes noise when placed on the Bean 50-degree bag.

7/12/23 Spoke with friend. She camps a LOT! She strongly suggested a pillow, like hers and her sister's. So I did. And..... LOVE it! I am a 5'6", 118 lb female. Can carry about 35 lbs. Quality sleep is a non-negotiable. Honest, it's not about money, it's about body repair. During sleep, we recover from the hard treatment we dish out on our bodies. A comfy pillow during sleep prevents even more muscular problems (like a stiff neck). This product is light, yet durable and I will always figure out a way to use one, It's not about being a snob; I now know better. Get one. Also good for that gnarly space on a plane by the window and allows you to sleep on a long flight without screwing up your neck or using a pillow some diseased human may have used. Or in your car as a neck or arm support. No more wadded up smelly, dirty laundry for a pillow, which does not work anyway. Also wonderful for lumbar support in your home bed. Others will envy you and try to steal. Watch yours carefully.

I love the height of the pillow, an inch higher than the Fillo Elite, is perfect for when sleeping on the side. I sleep as good as in my own bed while backpacking, thanks to Fillo pillow together with Tensor Insulated, the dream team.

I bought this pillow for backpacking and camping. When it arrived I tried it out and was very impressed with how comfortable it was and how well it supported my head and neck. I used the attached stuff sack to pack it away for my trip and by the time I set it up at my destination it felt less comfortable, like the foam inside the pillow lost some of its shape after it was packed away in the stuff sack. It was disappointing but still works as a pillow. Just know it will never be the same once it's been packed into the stuff sack. I used it for a 4 day backpacking trip, and I am planning on taking it camping this fall.

I bought one a couple months ago and it is a game-changer. Easily the most comfortable backpacking pillow out there, even more than the Thermarest compressible pillow I also have and love. I have used it on one 3-nighter I just returned from - it was amazing as expected. As some reviews mention, the only con is that (like most pillows) it can slide around a bit. I found a way to jerry-rig it from sliding completely off my pad but for the most part it stays nestled in the hood part of my sleeping bag. If you really worry about it sliding away it seems easy enough to string some elastic around the back of your pad; I don't think it's that big an issue unless you have the pillow super pumped up. All in all, an amazing and durable (so far) pillow, easy to inflate and adjust, packable (difficult to get it into its stuff sack but still), and surprisingly versatile (I use it for backpacking, camping, road trips, flights, etc.). BUY ONE while you can!

Excellent design but a little pricey. Very comfortable. Made canoeing the boundary waters much more enjoyable

This may not be the fairest review since I can count the times I have camped on one hand, but after using this pillow for one night, I am hugely disappointed in it. It is easy enough to inflate, stays inflated, and I like the stuff sack being part of the pillow. But it did nothing to support my head, and neck! It made for an uncomfortable night. Maybe if I ordered another one, that might do it. But I will look elsewhere. As other reviews have mentioned, it would be nice if both sides had the soft fabric.
