Daily Voice | Pomona Native Pitches Anti-Snoring Pillow On ‘Shark Tank': Here's What Happened
Daily Voice covered Pomona resident Lloyd Ecker's successful Shark Tank appearance, celebrating his "big win" alongside wife Sue with their anti-snoring pillow designed to "silence snoring and keep couples in the same bed." The article details how Sharks Lori Greiner and Michael Strahan were so impressed after testing The Snorinator on the demo bed that they invested $100,000 to help expand the brand. Daily Voice emphasizes Lloyd's personal journey as a self-described lifelong snorer whose invention was born from necessity after being banished to the couch.
The piece explains that The Snorinator is based on the High Fowler's Position, a medically recommended upright sleeping posture dating back to the 19th century, and features plush memory foam with a patented "Hinged Head Nest" that cradles the head and neck. The article quotes Strahan noting the pillow's comfort and appeal to both snorers and their partners, and Greiner recognizing snoring as a "huge problem" that makes this product potentially incredible.
Now available for $159.99, the pillow represents the couple's journey from homegrown idea to sleep solution for millions.
