Kolbs Bed Wedge Pillow

8.6/10 Our verdictHands-on tested, not gifted

The wedge that doesn't collapse and slide. It's firmer than the cheap ones, so you don't sink in and creep down the bed overnight, and sleeping with my head elevated made a real difference.

The full review

The trick that stopped the sliding

The thing that helped me stop sliding down the wedge was putting it under my fitted sheet instead of on top of it, that alone made a bigger difference than switching pillows. Then I got the Kolbs wedge, and it's firmer than the cheaper ones I'd tried, so you don't sink into it and gradually slide down through the night.

I sleep so much better with my head elevated than I ever did just stacking regular pillows, which always slipped apart. A firm wedge holds the angle all night.

What I liked

  • Firm foam that holds its shape
  • Head stays elevated all night
  • Better than stacking regular pillows
  • Helps with reflux, congestion and snoring

What to know

  • Firmer than some expect at first
  • Takes a night to get used to the angle
  • Cover needs occasional washing
  • One fixed angle

Common questions

How do you keep from sliding down?

Put the wedge under your fitted sheet, not on top, that plus a firm wedge like this keeps you in place.

Is it too firm?

It's firmer than the cheap ones on purpose, that's what stops you sinking in and sliding down overnight.
