We can't say that getting up for work is one of our favourite parts of the day, but waking to find you've got a stiff neck or a sore back just adds insult to injury.

If you're a side sleeper or you prefer lying on your back, it can be hard to ensure your head and neck are properly supported during the night.

Enter, the Specialist Synthetic 2-Way Memory Foam Standard Support Pillow from John Lewis.

This super-comfy pillow helps to keep your spine aligned for a comfortable and undisturbed night's sleep.

Here's why so many shoppers love it.

Why we rate it

The dual-contoured pillow works to relieve pressure while supporting spine alignment, whether you sleep on your back or side.

Plus, it gives extra support to your head, neck and shoulders, which could help make waking up feeling stiff or creaky a thing of the past.

What the reviews say

The Specialist Synthetic 2-Way Memory Foam Standard Support Pillow has garnered glowing reviews from shoppers, here's what they have to say:

  • "Brilliant, no more neck, shoulder and back pain. So far have bought six of them as giving as presents to family."

  • "I used to frequently wake up with neck and upper back pain so decided to invest in this pillow. It totally solved my issue - I haven't had any more pain since. I'm a 5ft female and a side sleeper. I use the bigger side to sleep on and it supports my neck perfectly. The pillow is not soft which helps to maintain the structure."

  • "Have had this a couple of years now and has considerably reduced my neck pain on waking. In fact, I've come on to buy another one to take when I stay in hotels or at peoples' houses because that is the only time I now wake with neck pain."

  • "I have arthritis in my neck so I need a pillow where my neck can be straight with spine and this works perfectly. I like the fact that one side has the right height for when you're lying on your side and the other side is a bit lower for when you're lying on your back. Simple, well designed and effective. It also fits into a standard pillow case. Excellent."

  • "Fantastic comfortable pillow. Sorted out all my stiff neck problems overnight. Highly recommended."
