I got the firm support and it’s perfect! If you’re concerned about it being too firm (in my opinion) it is not too firm. It has just the right amount of squish to be comfy while still being very supportive. I’m 3 months postpartum and work at a desk all day. My PT recommended I roll up a towel for lumbar support to encourage good posture, but I was tired of it not staying put and frankly I wanted more support. I found this and it’s perfect! I just strapped it onto my desk chair and there’s an instant improvement in my posture and comfort! As a mom to a new baby, I’m constantly hunched over in everything I do. So I highly recommend this for good posture!

The McKenzie works well. I attached to the back of a stressless chair that would otherwise be a problem for my back. I need to be in an upright position for my particular back issue (sciatica) and most chairs lean back. The item is well made and offers firm support and easily cleanable when needed. I will probably buy another one for passenger front seat in my car as those seats do not have same lumbar support as the drivers seat and on a trip when I am passenger I think I would benefit. The product is versatile as it's easily removed & you could also wear it and move from seat to seat as needed. This would also make a great gift for someone with back problems or someone who sits at a computer all day.

Came quickly and works well!

I have only had this cushion for one day, but the relief that it has given me for my sciatica is immediate and noticeable. I like the firmness and the size, I think that it was definitely worth the money for what it is and I was able to get it quickly when I really needed it which I appreciate. My only complaint is that I actually wish the strap was fully removable, because I find that it gets in the way sometimes, and if I could unclip it when I don't need it that would be great. Update: I actually took one more star off, because over time this pillow became more of a hassle than anything. At some point it stopped helping with my back pain and actually started to make it worse again. The strap is also virtually useless, I tried strapping it to my desk chair as suggested, and it was constantly shifting, and moving up and down, and the strap is too elastic and not nearly substantial enough to keep the pillow where you need it to be. I think you would have much better luck buying something with a more organic design that actually fits the shape of your back. It was not worth saving the money to buy this product.

The lumber rolls are perfect for anyone with lower back pain. The firm ones are good, but if you’re new to the lumber roll, I would start with the standard.

Seems pretty expensive for foam rubber, but it is well-made, the right size for me, and remains firm. I went with the firm density and am using it for lumbar support in a reclining chair. It provides the needed lower back support without being intrusive. Definitely has made a positive difference, Overall, I'm very satisfied with the purchase.

First, to address the 3 main concerns I saw in the bad reviews before deciding to purchase: 1. Yes, it IS difficult to stuff the foam back into its cover after removing the plastic. That said, I also struggle to get the foam back in my dog's orthopedic bed after washing the cover. That's just how it is if you want foam that fills the cover. 2. The cover IS NOT a heavy high quality material. This probably isn't something you would want a thick cover for, though - it would diminish the benefits of the foam. Do you encase your memory foam mattress in heavy canvas? Probably not, because it wouldn't feel as nice or be as effective. However, the cover WILL likely tear with frequent removal/washing. 3. Foam breakdown. This I can't speak on because I haven't had it long enough. I will say that you shouldn't leave it in your car because heat breaks foam down pretty fast. It also breaks down with heavy daily use, which is one of the reasons running shoes don't last forever. Those are valid concerns, but I feel they would be the same for any roll made with this type of foam. Now for the PROS: 1. This is the first time I've been able to sit down, without lower back pain, in a while. This thing is perfect. If the cover rips, I will repair it. 2. See #1 above. I went back and forth trying to decide between standard and firm. Ultimately, I decided on firm because at 5'7 and 200lb I'm on the heavier side. I can see how some would find it too hard, but it's just right for me. I can use it in chairs, and even lay on it on the squishy couch (but I think it would be too hard to try that on a less forgiving surface).

This lumbar support is extremely good for your back. I have placed it in my chair and it does a great job of supporting my lower back .. it is firm as described and would recommend this to anyone who wants a firm lower back support .. since this is imported it is quite pricey but worth it ...

It's too soft, I thought it would more firm

Excelente ferramenta de massagem. No início as dores aumentam, mas com o tempo vão desaparecendo. Eu recomendo.

Good Product and easy to manage

柔らかすぎて、全然支えにならない。これならタオルを畳んで当てた方がまだ良い。
