Review on Joybest Leg Elevation Pillow With Removable Cover 8 Inch Memory Foam Leg Rest Pillow For Sleeping, Blood Circulation Wedge Pillows Relieve Leg, Knee, Hip And Lower Back Pain (White) by Ryan Gordon

My husband was recently diagnosed with severe arthritis in his left knee and advised by the orthopedist to elevate his legs, among other things. We tried using pillows, but they weren’t comfortable and slipped around rather than being stable. I looked at a lot of the elevating pillows in ebay and finally decided in this one because of the good reviews and price.When the box was delivered we wondered why it was much smaller than we anticipated. Even after we opened the box the pillow looked small, and similar to a soft taco in its packaging inside the box. As soon as my husband cut away the clear plastic packaging the pillow began to slowly "grow” until it reached the size in the attached photo. I wish I had made a video of the expansion! The expanding process was amazing, and in just a very few minutes it had become so large it was as though we had a new family member!We opened the box and packaging on our bed to see how it would work there, and shortly after my husband began using the pillow he was asleep and snoring! It also works well on our reclining sofa, as shown in the other photo. The only drawback is deciding where to store it when it’s not being used, because of its size, but it works extremely well for its intended purpose. The cover is very soft and comfortable. It has a zipper that makes it removable, but we’ve had no reason to remove it. Some of the reviews mentioned the cover is very difficult to put back in after washing it, but since we haven’t needed to wash the cover, we haven’t had to cross that bridge.If only there were a way to squish the pillow back down for storage after my husband no longer needs to use it! Guess we’ll just have to name it and welcome it as a new family member! 😂😂😂
