Clara Clark Reading Pillow Adult, Back Pillow for Sitting in Bed - Shredded Memory Foam Reading & Bed Rest Pillow with Arms and Pockets - Bed Pillows for Sitting Up in Bed - Large, Gray

*Review for: Clara Clark Reading Pillow Adult...- Large, Gray (comes with matching roll pillow, and de/attachable half-circle head rest. Seller Name the Clara Clark Store, from this ad, 2023: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08PW3524H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1 A great purchase. First this is a 5-star purchase for me. I did rate 4 stars for "Softness", because it is sturdy and holds up well to a lot of moving it and use. It is a "soft-hard"? Sturdy, comfy, pillow. Soft to me is like those foam filled fluffy "kid toy" pillows you can buy that are lightweight and cushy. I mean, we can either have a softie that smooshes out pretty quickly with no support to it, or we can instead have a useful prop-up pillow that is soft enough to be comfy+hard enough to be supportive: We cannot have both in one item can we. So 4 stars because it isn't soft/whimpy, but that's a good thing. I needed support without any hassle or surprises, no lumps, no irritations, no maintenance, off the rack use. And that's what I got. This set arrived in great condition and with both the extra pillows with it, in a color as promised in the ad picture. This is sturdy, well-made, with handle up top (thank goodness), and has some weight to it. This is no lightweight toss-around throw pillow set. The two added pillows with it are toss-around, but the main pillow is, well, solid and will stay where it is placed until you want to move it. I love that it doesn't slide around easily. This set got me through multiple medical procedures where I had to spend some time propped up in bed. Helped offset back, shoulder, leg issues. Tough enough to not be too difficult to "move around the 2 extra pillows" while leaning on the main pillow. That helped. I continue to use all three every night. And every day I still use the 2 extra pillows separately in chairs to help offset shoulder, back, and leg issues I am working through. I am recalling that this came in separate "sizes". Noting that I "might" have done ok with the Medium, but will never know. I purchased the Adult size "Large", and it seems large and tough enough for a, well, up to a larger husband really. It is larger than I might have needed, but it works great so I am very happy. Worth a final mention to be sure you think about size before purchasing. This set is comfy while also being very supportive. I am happy with my purchase. As I am more often seeing Amazon ad "reviews" mixed up (different products being reviewed than the ad the review is placed on), I have included the Ad title + link and seller name to this review. This review only pertains to this ad sold by this seller name.

These are great reading pillows. Make sure to take the time to break up all the memory foam pieces and kind of shake it around to distribute the foam evenly. Let it sit overnight, then shake it up some more, breaking up any remaining "hard" foam pieces. I gave this a four-star rating instead of five strictly because the elastic and button placement for the top cushion is very poorly designed. My sons' pillow elastic broke the first time he used his. It didn't damage the pillow, but now it won't stay attached to the main reading pillow.

En general no me acomodo tanto. Pensé que sería mucho más comodo de lo que en relidad es. Es un poco pesado para cargarlo con la agarradera que tiene arriba.

This pillow works exactly as advertised, which I'm thankful for as I am medically required to spend most of the day in bed. It took the pillow a full week, possibly longer, to fully expand (longer than advertised), though it was usable the day after it arrived. Some fluffing during the expanding process helped the pillow to fill out in all places evenly. The two smaller pillows took several days to expand fully, especially the half-round pillow which has a different type of foam in it. That one probably took two weeks or so to fully expand. But once it did, it became very helpful as it is light enough to easily put it between my knees when needed or under my knees when sitting up with my legs straight. Of course, it works well as a head rest, which is what its actual purpose is. The only con I see isn't really a con, just a head-scratcher. The cupholder really isn't useful as it is located at the end of an arm that is a pillow... so it moves whenever you do. The advertisement picture shows a full cup of coffee in it, complete with the mug handle sticking out through the cute little cutout. Think about that for a minute... how are you supposed to put a FULL mug of coffee into that little pouch and maneuver the handle to stick out through the slit, without spilling it? And if you did manage to get the coffee mug in there without spilling it, how are you supposed to get it back out without spilling it? And again, if there is a hot mug of coffee in there, how is it supposed to remain stable when it's stuck to the arm of a moving pillow? All in all, it's a pointless design feature unless you are using something sealed at the top like a water bottle or travel cup. Even with those, the arm rest is short enough that anything sticking up right there would be uncomfortable, at least for me and my average length arms. Aside from that, the chair is exceptionally well designed, is firm enough to maintain its shape while still having enough give to conform to the body, and it regains its original shape without permanent deformity when it's not in use. I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this pillow to anyone who is has to spend a lot of time in bed or relax on an over-sized couch.

The Clara Clark Reading Pillow is a great product. It is constructed and feels as it is described; good support, size and comfort. But getting it was a nightmare! After ordering the first time, it arrived in a box that was taped over many times. It seemed like a repackage job. When I opened it, I saw the zipper on the headrest was partially torn, so I called Amazon. They said I could get a refund or a replacement, so since it other wise looked good, I took the replacement. I asked if I could just return the headrest and get a new one, but they said I had to return the entire chair. This compressed, memory foam chair came in a 10" by 2' box & there was no way I could get it back into that bac, since it expands to a very large size upon unpacking. I asked the rep what to do, and he told me to buy a much larger box; It was expensive and very awkward to handle!! I was supposed to receive the replacement chair in 2 days, but it did not arrive as promised. I called Amazon to inquire where it was. The first rep hung up on me because she did not know how to handle tracking. The second rep said she could not find my account in their computer, so could not deal with me. The 3rd rep, a Supervisor, found my tracking number and said a regular rep could use it to find my account and package. But she was unable to transfer me to a regular rep! (WHY??) So, my 4th call to a new rep, got my account located, but this rep said I had to contact the Postal Service to find out where my package was. I did this, and the chair was delivered the next day. When it was left on my porch, the front of the package was partially ripped open, unlike the first one that was tapped over a dozen times. I opened it, unpacked the chair, and it expanded normally, as described. I examined it and it looked in good condition and felt very sturdy and comfortable. I kept it and it seems like a very good chair. But as I explained, getting a good one delivered was a nightmare! Kudos to the manufacturer! But Amazon got a big "F" on this packaging, tracking, delivery, and service by their reps! You decide if you want to take a chance. I think Amazon has to take a hard as to how it is now handling these types of problems!!
