Will it keep my knees apart, and hip from falling forward, when sleeping on my side? If too soft, won't help me, but don't like hard as foam, either.

The pillow is very lofty and will definitely keep your knees apart, etc. It is very soft, not hard foam. I had to take some of the fill out because it was too thick for my frame size. It is a very good quality pillow and I'm happy with it now that I have it at the right thickness.

Yes it will! It's soft, but very full. I've had this pillow for almost a year now and it has maintained it's shape and my knees have never touched, it's very supportive.

It is not soft at all and will definitely keep your knees/hips apart. If anything it will keep them too far apart. Mine took some getting used to. It is not "hard" just very stuffed.

Yes! It is very firm and comfortable. I have a lot of difficuties with my knees when I'm sleeping. The Carex is perfect, just enough firmness, but not like you have a giant boulder between your knees. It has made sleeping much easier.

I sleep on my side and it works with no problems. I have also found I wake up with less aches than on a conventional mattress.

I tried mine on two different people and it just can't seem to stay put. I suggest you find one that has a knee insert. Like a hole where you can fit the ball of your knee in.

Cuddling isn't as comfortable as it used to be. But my wife and I wanted the split bed so we could sleep at different levels. I sleep at an higher slope which helps stop me from snoring.There are a couple or options to help keep the beds together. 1) Don't install the casters and put rubber cups under the legs2) Buy the bed straps accessory (L&P; Code: 4B1792) they attach two bases together3) Attach the bed frames to a headboard or a piece of woodWe did 1) and 3) but would have done option 2) if we weren't attaching the bed to a headboard

Definitely stays up. Finding out my biggest running problem has been weak hip muscles. Working with PT to strengthen them. Might not need knee braces if hips work right. Yea!

Its not the most comforable one ive tried... Not sure there is a really comfy one. They are all hard on your knee.

I found mine to have the same firmness. The best advice I can give is to force yourself to try it for about 3 nights. You will either love it or hate it. Just take comfort in the return policy!

It's quite firm, but molds to pressure. If you rest your legs on it while reclined, you will make "dents" in the foam - but it won't squash all the way down. And when you remove the pressure (I.e., your legs), the foam returns back to its original shape/firmness with a few minutes.

I would not recommend it. It opens into a narrow bed and it is quite hard. I slept on it with a foam padding and it was OK for me. I am quite slender so it was all right for a night or two. I use it as a spare when I have sleepover guests.

I'm not exactly sure what a knee pillow is, but I suppose so. Over time, the pillow does squish down a bit. So I think it would conform to what you'd want it to do.

Not at all, there is no discomfort or bunching up behind the knee. It is so comfortable and really gives my knee great support thatis snug enough but not at all too tight! Hope my response helps in you making your decision to buy. I think you will be just as pleased as I am. Btw, I had a total knee replacement and really needed the support, that works!!Do take care,Geneva

I actually purchased mine because of the reviews relating to the softness. Mine; however is incredibly firm. We cannot sleep on it. Moved it to the guest room and the guests complain that it is too firm. Our personal experience is that it caused more pain, mostly in the hips.

I found it comfortable to sit on for very short durations. Anything over 15 minutes and it was uncomfortable on my knees. My body geometry might be different than yours so I can't say how it'll work for you.

It does sleep well on the side ....That was the only way I could sleep,with my regular pillows....The thicker part goes under the neck to support right.I can lay on my back with good support also.......It seems to hold up pretty well Good luck Dean

Yes, it will still work. You might not be as comfortable but the important thing is to keep pressure off your sore and this should still work for what you need it to do. My dad, who used this item, sleeps on his back but based on how it looks, I think it should still work for side sleepers.

I have used it for sleeping in all positions. I was concerned about my hips bottoming out but it works pretty well. I used it in my padded truck bed in conjunction with a pick up truck tent. Hope this helps.
