Nice neck cushion!

[KenJ45]

So this just arrived today:

It's basically a neck pillow for the car that is fully adjustable. It's a little pricey, but the reason why I went with it than all of the other, simpler, options, is because they are almost all made with memory foam, which sounds good on paper, but memory foam compresses very easily and imo doesn't offer that much support on its own. This is also memory foam, but since it adjusts outwards, it can be made to provide a bit more support while the others tend to just flatten into the chair. I was kind of worried since the mechanism looks huge in the photos and look like it might stick out too much, but I'm happy to report that's not the case. It actually fits about perfectly. I like them, so if you were looking for a nice neck pillow and don't mind spending a bit more, I recommend this.

Looks great, but my Great Pyr would chew them up thinking they are toys.

It looks like it sticks out a lot. Is it comfortable for driving, or just napping in the seat?

Pretty cool. I found that my Lariat head rest are very adjustable so I wouldn't see a need for this, but I can see why some would definitely find this useful and comfortable for long trips.

You must have missed this sentence from my original post: "I was kind of worried since the mechanism looks huge in the photos and look like it might stick out too much, but I'm happy to report that's not the case." lol, but yes, it does look like that, but it actually doesn't. I'll take a photo sometime if I get a chance. And it is pretty comfortable for driving, but your height matters. Since it only adjusts up and down a little bit, your neck has to be close to where the seat and the headrest join. If you're much taller than that or much shorter than that then it won't be that comfortable. That's the downside of it. For me it's perfect.

That's good. For me the head rest does nothing but push my head forward since they are always angled forward and my neck is right where the seat and the headrest meet so it's like a void behind my neck. So for me I always need to find something to fill that space, which is why this works out for me. But if you don't need it then yah don't waste your money, haha.

Yeah, I saw that, but I also watched the videos on Amazon.

The spokesperson there talked a lot about how good the pillow is for letting someone sleep during a long drive, but didn't say much about how well it works for the driver. That made me wonder what your experience has been actually driving with it.

I know your initial post said you had only had it for one day. But I was hoping that maybe you might tell us more about your actual driving experience after you have had a chance to really use it.

Definitely man, I'll keep you updated on it.

Here's a photo of it installed in my Maverick:

And I drove around today for maybe around an hour and it was pretty comfortable. But remember that your height matters, it doesn't adjust too much above or below where you see it, so if your neck isn't around that level it might not work for you.

Good picture. It makes it more apparent that, although it looks thick on the sides, it isn't all that thick in the middle where your neck hits it.

It looks like it would be really good for keeping your head from flopping from side to side if you are napping with the seat partially reclined (while someone else drives, of course). That's how my wife and I do long distance trips, so it might work well for us.

I'm glad you specified that someone else would be driving, haha.

What is the neck pillow you like? The lariat upgrade head rests are very expensive. I need to find neck pillows that will work. I have the headrests turned around, but they are pretty from my head. But it's been nice to give my neck a break.LOL!

So would my Border Collie, but she's not old enough to drive, so she doesn't ride in the front seat.

Would this work? It was $5
At a store called Five Below.

Definitely worth a try.
Thanks!
