Tempur-Pedic’s material is “some of the best on the market, making it very lightweight and breathable,” says Ashley Cruz, a chiropractor and founder of Cruz Chiro Wellness in New York City. Plus, most of the brand’s products excel at pressure relief, which is why WH editors are huge fans of everything Tempur-Pedic, from its mattresses (the Tempur-Breeze is in WH’s guide to the best mattresses for back pain) to its pillows.

With a just-right “Goldilocks” firmness, Tempur-Pedic’s legendary cooling memory foam core, and a high-quality design backed by a 10-year warranty, this pillow checks most of our must-have boxes for a lumbar support pillow.

At only two inches thick, this travel-sized option is smaller than most others on this list. But the pillow’s density provides more support than other options measuring twice as deep. The slightly curved design contours perfectly to the spine to ensure a more comfortable sitting position and proper posture, too.

The pillow also features a removable cover with a clean, simple design that’ll blend into any office aesthetic. Its cover is machine-washable, making for quick and easy maintenance. Our only real gripe is the lack of adjustable straps. But that isn’t a deal-breaker. While testing this pillow, I found that the pillow stayed put no matter how many times I got up throughout the day. As a plus, the pillow is also available in a larger size if the travel version is too small for your liking.
