dreampad Kids Pillow

Make sure your intended person has a mobile device that plays music to sync with pillow.

The sound portion works as described. Warning 1 - if you're looking to use sound recordings such as hypnosis recordings, they sound garbled. For relaxation music, it works fine.Warning 2 - I like a low profile pillow. It works best for my neck. I was quite surprised when it came and was more the size of small throw pillow than a standard sleep pillow (12x18 and 3" in height). I have to use a folded towel under it to bring it to a comfortable height. I have adjusted to some of the short-comings and it does help me sleep better.

I wanted to love this pillow. I did, at first. The Bluetooth hooked up and there were wonderful sounds coming out of the pillow. I could feel my brain calm down and I was drifting off to sleep. Then the sound stopped. The Bluetooth connection had dropped. I dragged myself out of nearly-sleep and fixed it, but after a few minutes it dropped again, this time with a loud beep. The third time was the charm and it seemed to last, at least until I fell asleep. The sound undeniably is very restful. Unfortunately, for my preferences, anyway, the pillow is super uncomfortable. After one night on it my neck was screaming, and I had even gotten the slim version. I love the concept, and think it has huge potential, but in my opinion, there are still bugs to be fixed and at the moment it isn’t worth the hefty price tag.

Our sons occupational therapist recommended this to help our son sleep. He was waking about twice a night. This has helped him stay asleep longer and he’s back to napping!!!I think that this product is marketed towards adults. I wish it were a little more child friendly or sold child friendly accessories. For instance a waterproof pillow case (runny or bloody noses/throw up) . I had to custom make a waterproof pillow case to protect the pillow. It’s a costly item so not exactly something you want to be ruined by one throw up.

So here's the thing- the technology is super cool. BUT, and here's the reason for the 1 star...1)The pillow is ridiculously uncomfortable. You'd think for the amount of money they spent developing the technology they could have produced a comfortable pillow. Or. Partner with a company that knows how to make pillows.2) the price DOES NOT include Bluetooth. You need to buy that separately. So you're stuck sleeping with this long cord.3) there are limited music choices. Also. The music you pick isn't long like at the massage parlor, it's about a 5-10 minute song that pauses before it repeats. So if you have trouble falling asleep like I do, you can count the reps in your head and now just for how long you're not falling asleep. Oh good, another 10 minutes went by....

Dreampad does work. I tried nights with and without the dreampad and slept well when using this dreampad. I use this with Bluetooth and with my iPod. The sounds are soothing and restful. You can feel gentle vibration. I usually set the timer for 2 hours now,but first couple of uses were 1 hour. It is expensive yes,but what is getting a good nights sleep worth to you. All I know is that it worked for me and yes I did try the CD player and speakers under my pillow,but this is what did the trick. I have a full nights rest now and sometimes just to relax I listen to one of the options for sound.

Pillow is uncomfortable. Can't sleep on it.

I saw this product on "Shark Tank".I need "noise" to sleep well. ( Low volume TV, perfect)Sadly my beloved, not so much,He requires pitch black and silent.While I have only used my "pillow" for a few days. He cannot "hear" it, but I can! If the last few days are any indication this may have saved us from separate bedrooms! I have slept soundly, which I NEVER do. ( usually I wake up every 2 hours or so) So far I am a HUGE fan.
