I tried a purple. I really wanted to like it, but it was way too “soft”. I felt like it gave little to no support. I wound up returning it.

Which purple pillow did you have and when did you buy it? I heard they are currently in V3 model because people said V2 and V1 were returned too much. Do you live in USA or international? I don't live in USA and wanted to try one out but none of the big box sleep stores carry it.

It was the Harmony version, probably 2 years ago.

I prefer a firm pillow and it was just too soft. I felt like it offered little to no support. My favorite has been a memory foam I picked up from Costco about 12 years ago.

Mine are from Ikea and are memory foam as well. Recently I've been hearing about some sort of jel being better than foam, especially for removing heat from your pillow/head.

I guess I'll skip purple harmony for now, and look at other ones. I'm thinking coop because of its Customer Reports review, its adjustable, jel and memory foam options, looks firm(ish?)
