Amazon is a magical place, full of hundreds of thousands of products. There are robot vacuum cleaners, your favorite snacks in bulk, and a myriad of travel accessories to gear up with for your next trip. But perhaps our favorite thing about the online retail giant is its customer review sections, which let us know exactly which products people are loving (and, in some cases, hating).

Today, we’re bringing you the top-selling travel pillows Amazon has to offer — from the best memory foam neck pillows on the market to a few alternatively designed pillows that work surprisingly well. Scroll through below to see the best-sellers and why Amazon shoppers love them.
Bcozzy Chin Supporting Travel Pillow
As Amazon's current No. 1 best-selling travel pillow, the Bcozzy pillow is designed to double up beneath your neck to prevent your head from bucking forward as you nod off to sleep.
Amazon user Linda Piper loves it for its versatility, writing, "This one works, for me, in three ways. I've used it a couple times over the last few days just to test it and I'm very pleased with how soft it is, yet supportive. Whether I need to fold it so I can have extra cushion between my head and the side of the bus, or I'm sitting straight up and need my chin supported, or my head is off to the side, there's a way to make this pillow work."

Trtl Neck Support Travel Pillow
Not your average "U" shaped pillow, the Trtl pillow has garnered a cult following — and not to mention, our own Travel + Leisure Ultimate Travel Essentials stamp of approval — for its alternative and yet highly effective design. It features a hidden neck support rib for you to comfortably rest your head and neck on. Plus, it's designed to be super-compact, so you can travel without the extra bulk.
Amazon shopper Candace Karu gives the Trtl pillow five stars, raving, "The Trtl is not only lightweight and super soft, it works like no other travel pillow I've tried — and believe me, I've tried them all. It supports my neck at an extremely comfortable angle and keeps my head and neck swaddled in comfort. The Danish have a word — hygge — that means a feeling of coziness and warmth. The Trtl is definitely hygge."

Travelrest Ultimate Travel Pillow
We tried it, and we liked it. This travel pillow is one of the few (if not the only) that provides support without having to wrap around your neck. It comes with a sling, so you can either wear it like a messenger bag or tether it to your seat for secure positioning. And yes, it may be inflatable, but don't let that deter you. The Travelrest Ultimate Travel Pillow fully inflates with just a few breaths, and then instantly deflates so you can pack it away even before the seatbelt sign flicks off upon landing.
Laurie writes in her five-star review, "After much research, I purchased the Travelrest based on the good feedback, and it made the most amount of sense: I lay on my pillow, I can lean on this product. Sold. Let me tell you, its worth every penny. Ignore anyone who says it looks funny or that you will be embarrassed inflating it. It takes two breaths, and though it is a bit bulky when inflated, you won't notice when you are unconsciously sleeping in bliss."

Cabeau Evolution Memory Foam Travel Pillow
This classic, U-shaped travel pillow features drawstrings that'll pull its two ends together for full 360 degree support. Plus, the flattened shape lets you comfortably lean back in your seat without the extra bulk at the nape of your neck.
AJBird15 says, "Unlike some memory foam products, it has no offensive odor. I didn't have to air it out. It fastens securely, and doesn't take up a lot of room when in its storage bag. I also like the color options. Great pillow!"

Travelmate Memory Foam Neck Pillow
If you're looking for a no-fuss neck pillow that gets the job done, go for this one. The Travelmate Memory Foam Neck Pillow comes with removable inserts so you can adjust the level of thickness to fit your personal preference. And with over 2,000 rave reviews and a $12 price tag? Consider it sold.
Bluebar23 can't get enough, writing, "This is the best travel pillow I have owned! The removable portion at the back of the neck is genius. It doesn't get hot, and it is super comfortable. Cover washes easily. Have taken this around the world, used it in cars and planes and even in bed when I didn't have a decent pillow to use. It's well worth the price."
