The UpRight Sleeper requires little dignity to use. Considering the alternative, however, that is an easy feeling to displace. Instead of a person smashing his or her face against the window of a train or inadvertently falling asleep on the shoulder of the stranger sitting next to him or her, the UpRight Sleeper provides the perfect head perch to snooze away on.
Specially designed to keep people's heads from nodding painfully in the wrong direction, the UpRight Sleeper is essentially a comfortable brace that wraps around the neck just below the jaw, which is meant to rest on it. Supported by the shoulders, the UpRight Sleeper will minimize neck cramps and ensure a better nap while commuting to work or traveling on vacation. It even comes with a cover.
