Wondering if anyone has any thoughts or experience with this anti-snoring device:

Like many, I snore when I'm sleeping on my back. I have mostly trained myself to sleep on my side, where it's rarely a problem. But invariably I will at times roll onto my back and begin snoring - a problem for me and GF both. Another reason I'm interested in this is that sleeping on your back has ben recommended as a better sleeping position, notwithstanding the snoring problem.
A long-standing way of dealing with this is a "mandibular advancement device", a mouthpiece of sorts which (as I understand it) pulls your lower jaw forward slightly, so that your airway doesn't constrict. Apparently, for many people, the airway constricts because your tongue kind of sags downwards. The GMSS supposedly addresses this problem directly, by gripping the end of your tongue so it can't fall backwards.
The thing ain't cheap, $100 or so, but apparently there's a free 30-day trial, but since it ships from Canada they charge $20 worth of shipping and handling fees. Then, if you return it, you have to ship it back across an intenational border, for $20 or so. So it would cost roughly $40 to try the thing out if you return it.
Unfortunately I can find almost no un-biased information - only lots of advertisements and reviews that are clearly shills. It definitely is no good if you can't breath through your nose. Supposedly you can get a notion of its possible efficacy for you by consciously making a snoring sound, and then grabbing the tip of your tongue and seeing if you can still do it. If you can't, that's a good indication the thing might work for you.
