Why this gift works

The Milliard Reading Pillow with Arms is an 18 x 15 x 11-inch backrest filled with CertiPUR-certified shredded memory foam that can be removed to change the firmness. It has armrests, a carry handle and a removable, machine-washable zippered velour cover, weighs 4.4 lb, and Milliard recommends it for adults about 5 to 6 feet tall.

Many people at 70 read, do puzzles or watch TV in bed propped on a pile of pillows. A proper backrest with arms is a small comfort they will use every evening.

Who is this gift for?

Great for

  • Readers and puzzlers
  • TV in bed
  • Recovering after surgery

Think twice if

  • They are very tall
  • Space is tight

The catch

It is sized for people about 5 to 6 feet tall; it is bulky and needs somewhere to live; replacement foam is sold separately; and the maker's own store showed it sold out, so check Amazon stock.

Skip for someone who never reads or watches TV in bed.
