Hi:

I've had a jetsleeper for the past 5 years, including a 19 hour flight to Australia, I loved the jetsleeper but my mum found it uncomfortable (she's under 5ft tall I'm 5ft10)

We have just bought a J pillow from Lakeland, it looks comfortable and feels good on a 'pretend flight' in our living room lol

That looks fantastic!

I bought one of the u-shaped type ones that you put around your neck and it was awful, forced my head forward and was so uncomfortable!

I bought one from TKMaxx called a Bucky Minnie. It's smaller than a normal sized travel pillow but just as comfy, also it's quite light coz its filled with seed husks. Sounds weird but it honestly is brilliant!!

My mum is the biggest critic of travel pillows, we've had every sort imaginable, the squishee one, the jetsleeper, the inflatable, the vibrating ones and she's impressed with the j pillow.... I can't say how good it really is yet because we've not used it properly but it seems very good.

Thank you for all the response, most appreciated. It looks like I need to source myself a j-pillow, don't need it for some time yet but that does give me time to test it out...........

QVC seem to be cheapest for the J-Pillow and it comes with an eye mask.

I've just ordered (using the express delivery option) a J Pillow for my trip on Megabus from London to Paris on Friday. I'll report back on comfort after the trip! :tup

Ah thanks for that Pippy will look forward to hearing your opinion as my friend uses neck pillows on our National Holiday trips :tup

The J Pillow was a great success! I found it far more comfortable/versatile than the usual neck pillows I've tried previously :tup

Thanks for the update :) glad it worked :tup just 5 more weeks until I can try mine out for my hol to Cuba.

I did try it for a 6 hour coach journey to London with work and it was brilliant.

Yes - I've tried it and really liked it.
I like the material especially and also the shape makes it very comfortable.
But maybe you can go into a store to try out what suits you best. Everyone is differnt and you may not find it as good as I do.

I bought the J Pillow a few months ago. I've used it for 4 long haul flights so far and it has been fantastic. Not a hint of neck ache even after 13+ hour flights.
