MedCline Reflux Relief System, Bed Wedge Pillow for Acid Reflux and GERD Relief, Therapeutic Body Pillow with Insert and Covers, Inclined Sleep Position with Arm Pocket, Large for 6'0" or Taller

I think that the biggest thing that I had to get past was the price. I sure am glad that my blinders were removed. I wouldn't recommend it for someone that doesn't sleep alone. I am 216lbs at 6ft tall and I have mine directly in the middle of my queen bed. Yes, they have different sizes but choose carefully. I live with chronic pain that is particularly in my low back and into my right buttock and hip after 6 back surgeries. With this device, I am once again able to sleep in my bed more often than I have in years. I have had to have both of my shoulders totally replaced and with this device, I am once again able to return to my bed and sleep on my side to relieve the butt and hip pain. I am able to make it to the old fetal position and pull the body pillow up between my legs which takes the pressure off my hips, back, and Thank God, my shoulders. There are so many ways that having this product has blessed my life that I could go on for a long time. Just to make it through the night without feeling as if I am drowning in GERD backup is certainly worth the price. I have to spend way too much time sleeping in my recliner and there is no way to rotate or take the pressure off without just getting up which is all too often extremely painful to do. I don't always get to sleep in my bed for a period more than five hours but I do get my best quality sleep doing so. I had actually reached the point where I began to wonder if a really good rest was ever going to happen again. My wife is currently in the nursing home which enables me to do this. If she were home, I would not be able to use this device without separate beds. We have tried just about every kind of bed on the market over a thirty year period. It just didn't work! We could not afford a bed that allowed each of to enjoy separate adjustments therefore making her miserable when I truly needed the GERD relief and impossible to comfort both of with me trying to get through the back pain. Make sure that you have enough bed to accommodate this unit. If the bed area is not plenty wide beneath you, you will easily find yourself in the floor without being prepared. Overall, I can not begin to say what a blessing this unit has been for me and I would only hope that you would experience the same.

I already own the shoulder pain relief pillow from this company. I bought it about 2 years ago and it's fantastic! I just needed the wedge to be higher to help with my acid reflux, so I decided to try this one. Disappointed doesn't even begin to cover how I felt when I got this pillow. It's a fraction of the size of the shoulder relief pillow and isn't much higher of an incline. The body pillow that came with my other pillow was much bigger and the stuffing is far superior to the crap they put in the new pillow and it's barely even stuffed, unlike my original pillow. The new one is far smaller than my original body pillow as well. The new body pillow isn't the least bit comfortable. The wedge itself is comfortable, but if I move in my sleep at all, I'm going to fall off the side of it. I contacted the seller and because I opened to actually try it, they won't exchange it and they charge a 15% fee to return it. The description says to size down if you're between sizes, IGNORE THEIR RECOMMENDATION!! SIZE UP!!! The price increased considerably in the last 2 years, no surprise there, but the product quality doesn't even compete with my old pillow. The old pillows are on the bottom with the new pillow on top in all of the pictures.

My advice is do not be afraid to try the MedCline Acid Reflux System. Yes, it is expensive, but your health is worth it, and the purchase cost is likely less expensive than anti-relflux pills taken for a year.In my experience the company is very reliable and their customer service is exceptional. Amenity Health sets the bar really high when it comes to understanding and working to help their customers achieve the best result. Through dealing with the company it became obvious to me that they truly care about their customers and designing the best possible product - they listen and are quick to respond to questions.In my opinion this is a very high quality product. I am impressed by the construction details - for instance they include a zippered, water proof case INSIDE the removable, washable outer case (referring to the incline base not the body pillow). This inner case on the incline base would also serve as a dust mite and allergen protector. The design of the incline base is ingenious.Also, rather than trying to save money on shipping the company ships the MedCline Reflux System in a full size box so that the foam incline base is not compressed. (The body pillow is compressed but expands immediately upon opening its separate plastic bag.) I feel compelled to mention the excellent packaging because it was such a relief to not have to struggle with tightly compressed foam to get it out of the package, unlike products I have purchased from other companies.As for my experience with the product:Everyone is different in their body type and sleep comfort needs and as such this type of device may not work for everyone and would take some time to get used to sleeping on an incline but I do believe it's worth a try. In my case I need a medium size with a wider arm opening placed a little lower on the base. For reference my height is 5'7" but I have a short torso and weigh over 240#. Because of my short torso I felt like my left arm was positioned slightly above my shoulder, plus my upper arms are really thick so for me a tweak here and there would make it better.
