DMI® Ortho Bed Wedges

When I unpacked this pillow that I'm planning on using during the rehab phase of my knee surgery, I was sure that the dimensions were wrong. It looked as though the area for my thigh was too short, but I was very pleasantly surprised to find that it's perfect for me at 6'2". To give proper elevation, a pillow like this must be pretty firm, and this one is.It has a high quality cover on it that can be removed for laundering. However, it comes in a sealed in a second outer polyethylene cover for shipping. I've decided to leave that clear, outer cover on because I'll be doing a lot of icing, and it will keep any drips of moisture from entering my pillow.My conclusion is that there is absolutely no reason to spend more than the purchase price of this DMI Ortho Bed Wedge Elevated Leg Pillow. It's one of the very least expensive ones on Amazon, but I dont I see any way to improve it. It's a real bargain that's highly recommended.

The wedge came in quickly. No assembly required!!! You have to love that.The removable cover is already on the wedge so you can use it immediately.First I tried it under the feet. It was perfect. I did worry that because I am tall it would not be long enough. No problem.The foam was perfect. Not so hard as to hurt your heels and not too soft as to not adequately support your legs.Later I wondered how it would work to help me kero my head elevated in bed. Now I know that this wasn't something that they even suggested. I tried anyways..and add a pillow ..it worked wonderfully.Looking at it I would imagine that this could be used for exercising as well.Great product!

I was looking for something to alleviate my lower back pain while sleeping and this has been super helpful. It does end of slipping off the edge of my bed quite often, but I'm a toss/turn type, so that could be more my fault than anything else. It's lightweight and the removable cover comes in handy since I have several cats who also enjoy this pillow. I found it also comes in handy as a place to set my laptop when I want to work in bed. I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for something to provide a little relief from lower back pain experienced while sleeping in an uncomfortable bed or even if you just have a bad back. I'm a side sleeper, and I still find this to be convenient for allowing me to hike one leg up and over top while my other leg is bent up toward me.
