How much does this pillow weigh? I have tried memory foam pillows before and they are a bit heavy.

The pillow is heavier than a down or down-alternative pillow. It doesn't seem as heavy as a typical memory foam pillow, and is definitely more comfortable. You can "fluff" it a bit.

It's pretty heavy. I plan to use mine as ballast in the back of my pickup next winter.

Typically the queen pillows weigh around 3.5 to 4.0 pounds. They are stuffed with high quality memory foam so that adds weight when compared to traditional pillows or lesser quality foam pillows. Thanks for the question.

The pillow weighs about five pounds. I've been using it for several months and I'm very happy with it so far.

My guess would be less than 3 pounds. After using mine for several weeks, it is great and still holding shape.

Doesn't feel heavy at all. It's lighter than the last one I had, anyway, but I guess it depends on what you compare it to. I haven't weighed it myself or anything.

I believe that the 5.5 is the density..... 5.5 pounds per sq. inch, tho' I'm not sure about that. Whatever, it is a fairly firm memory foam, tho' very comfortable to sleep on. I have no problems with my back or hips hurting anymore from pressure points. My only dislike is that I bought the 4" thick topper, and I find that it shifts on the bed, even with a mattress cover to hold it in place. Other than that, I have no complaints. It's a terrific buy!

I'm not sure of the weight but doesn't Amazon give that? It's certainly not heavy. I use it on airplanes so I don't pack it, just stick it in a carryon. I love it. Much cooler than a foam pillow.

Reportedly 3lb. See sleeplikethedead.com under Zinus: http://www.sleeplikethedead.com/memory-foam-nitetherapy.html

The unit itself is not heavy . To me it feels about 3-pounds but I have it on a hook stand designed for it by the manufacturer so the motor part is never handled. Shipping now a days is a different story. We have large sections of foam weighing only 7-pounds that fits inside a box made for a case weighing 40-ponds but the shipping cost of the 7-pound foam is based on the cost of the box size and is the same cost as the shipping cost for the 40-pound case even though only a 7-pound piece of foam is in side. The entire shipping industry is this way now. I hope I helped you with this. Now a days when you order something, don't look at the total weight. It will always throw you for a loop. If weight is important, only look at the actual weight of the item itself. Contact the person / company and ask for the weight of the item itself if that information is not given in the description.

I am not a big fan of firm pillows. This pillow is supportive while allowing your head to sink in and feel cradled. I gave this pillow to a friend that purchased a firm foam pillow and she loved it. I still enjoy the pillow.

Based on the weight i would surmise it is 2.5lbs memory foam. That is what a cubic foot weighs..industry standards. p.s. high grade memory foam is 4 to 5.3lbs lower wont last as long. The heavier,the better the quality. And the more it will cost. A very inportant number the seller should provide.

I also am not large and used to only use very flat pillows due to prior neck issues. This one is thicker which caused me concern when I opened the box, but my head settles into it and I have not had a bit of trouble

It's heavier then a regular pillow. I would say about 5 pounds, but it is a comfortable pillow. The first one I bought was at Costco and I loved it. Went back to get one for my mother in law and they didn't have them anymore. So that's we I looked Amazon and found one and bought it for her. She also loved it. Hoped this helped you.

The pillow is pretty thick and hard...too hard for me. I have never used it and have been wanting to sell it on Craigs List. I have had neck surgery and have always liked using a thin down pillow that I could bunch up under my neck for support where I needed it. Want to buy my pillow at a good price?

The pillow is made from some kind of foam, but I don't think it's memory foam; it keeps the shape it started in. Remember to buy it from the company that is backed by Amazon and not a 3rd party vendor. The measuring is very important.

The bottom of the pillow is flat, the top of the pillow has two supportive humps, one side is smaller than the other and firmer than the other. I have to use the smaller side, the bigger side gives me a headache. I got my first pillow like this, this brand, through a chiropractor and now it's the only one I can sleep on. For me, they will last for about 3 years before I replace them, but that's me. It's not a memory foam where is sinks down, it's a foam, but it's a very supportive foam. I highly recommend this pillow, but keep in mind, different things work for different people. Good luck and if I can answer anything else, just ask and I will do my best!!

I'm guessing about 4 lbs. It was not enoug for me. I added another 3 or so pounds to the pillow.

I found that my foam pillow is not as soft as most "foam rubber" pillows but not as hard as the brand name gel pillows. I sink into mine enough to form pockets. I'm 5'10' @ 185 lbs. Hope this helps.

I returned that product before I tried it, so I cant say how heavy it might be....It is a 5o oz Fill Weight, so it is quiet light, not really something that you really feel, I guess.

Pretty dense. I haven't slept on it. It is on a guest bed, but it was pretty dense. We have a memory foam bed (Serta) that we sleep on and we tested it out and it felt pretty nice!
