          I’m not super sure but I think they just give you a different size that’s better fitted for in between. Mine is just a tad bit too tall if I sleep on my back, but I had requested a side sleeper only.

        Why does that cost so much? It’s just a different shape it can’t cost that much more to make than a normal pillow lol

          The material is significantly better than other memory foam pillows of similar shape that I’ve had, but I suspect part of it is the gimmick too of like a medically approved custom sized pillow. I’ve had it for about a year now though and unlike other memory foam ones I’ve had, it’s kept its shape very well and is still as comfortable as when I first got it.

          A back sleeper pillow is the right size and shape to fit in a coffin, which is the only time you should be “sleeping” on your back.

          There is more space between your head and the ground when you are on your side

          On your back you want a gradual increase in height from your shoulders up
