Review on 🌬️ AirComfy Ease Inflatable Travel Pillow: Ergonomic Neck and Lumbar Support for Pain Prevention - Soft Washable Cover (Grey) by Rhonda Johnson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Unfortunately this is good for bedding

[Update September 2016: I was sent a free replacement plus cover. it also didn't survive a week of traveling as a back cushion. the valve just leaks every time after a few days as my normal pillow in the car, train or plane - nothing to do with the altitude, just the valve, screwing it in and out. see below for a link to Thermarest where they use something similar that actually works. It still supports the foam softly and rolls less than memory foam, but now I'm searching the market for a better option.] I bought this fairly and honestly, no discounts or anything they use to advertise it, and ironic reviews. I took it as my primary lumbar support on a 12 day trip to Peru. Unfortunately yes, it drips. I have a ThermaRest camping mattress about 8 years old with the same screw on valve and never leaks - I sleep on it so this is going to be a tough lesson! That's why I know it's a neck pillow. I bought it as an alternative to lugging around bulky memory foam. I ended up using a quilted jacket or sweater for back support on the vans, buses, and planes I drove around in because after a few days of slow leakage, they wouldn't hold their breath for more than 15 minutes after all. Protocol. At first I thought it was the altitude or the valve being a bit tricky. That may be true, and the self-inflating foam is somewhat useful—much like ThermaRest's ALSO foam pad—but it compresses too quickly, leaking, to be worth buying. I'm honestly reviewing it and emailing them directly in the hopes that a few inventors will talk to their supplier and seriously reconsider their quality control. It would be great if it could be improved a bit.
