    Help me find a hammock pillow that works as well as...

    the Tempurpedic I use at home! I'm not kidding when I say that this pillow has changed the way I sleep. I sleep much sounder, snore less, and toss and turn less since I started using it at Christmas. It literally feels like I don't move all night when sleeping on it. I was wondering if anyone who uses one of these at home can recommend a pillow that would work as well in a hammock-and pack fairly easily? Thanks as always!

    I will be honest, I get a headache every time I use a pillow. I started balling up my polar fleece and use that anything else is too think in my HH.

    I swear by this pillow and have a friend that thanks me every time we camp that I put him onto it. I'm sure there are better ones out there but the price is right on the MEC one too. I only inflate half way or less in a hammock. http://www.mec.ca/product/5023-543/m...e-camp-pillow/

    An inflatable pillow allows you to adjust to your optimal needs at the time. I also found that the nylon pillow against the nylon hammock was like teflon. I used liquid electrical tape on the pillow - just inflate and paint on a pattern - really helps with the slippage.

    Love my NEMO Fillo inflatable pillow, half-inflated: http://www.nemoequipment.com/product...se%20Stripe%29. Right size, easy to inflate/deflate, easy to wash outer covering.
    Really like the inflatable Cocoon Ultralight AirCore, again half-inflated.

    I have a C-Shaped travel pillow 3/4 filled with the little tiny foamish beads. Super comfy, and insulates my ears!

    I love my temperpedic as well. You can do what I did. Buy another one and cut it in half... perfect size and will cinch down.
    Where would we be without the ability to let our minds wander. And where would we go if our emotions were submerged down under our souls. Their master control plan will fail, as the young minds prevail, in pure genetic wisdom. Give me the power!!!

    This is my choice. Also from MEC. Inflate as required!

    I swear by the S2S Aeros inflated and then air released to the perfect feel. Expensive but very adjustable and the one side matches the feel of the inner REI stuff sack that I used previously. I used cloths in that stuff sack, but wanted more of a standard pillow feel. It will come down to a trial and error personal choice. However, I have only met one person that couldn't stand the Aeros; yet, they sold it quickly in the forums.

    I use a Therm-A-Rest compressible pillow. It takes up a comfortable shape easily.
