If you work for a stingy boss like I do that's too cheap to buy decent chairs OR a decent support for their hard working employees with bad backs, seriously consider buying this back support. Here's a few things I liked...

-its not expensive
-its comfortable
-its lightweight
-you can easily and quickly move it from chair to chair
-it conforms to a wide range of backs

What sets this low back support apart from others is that its made of a "mesh" material, which provides a rare combination of support, while at the same time, gives in to conform to your back. A very comfortable and affordable option when it comes to lumbar supports- its a keeper! Those with back pain might also be interested in Treat Your Own Spinal Stenosis.

They sell these at Dollar Tree. For a dollar. Every Dollar Tree I've been in in the past 8 months has had them. They may not be the exact same brand, but they're identical - I've got one next to me right now. I'm a big fan of Amazon, but you may want to check your local Dollar Tree before dropping $15 on one here.

I'm a sloucher, have been ever since I was a child. Now that I'm 22 years old, I'm trying to improve my posture so I can sit/stand up straight for a more professional look.

To be honest, sitting with good posture hurts my back because I'm too used to slouching. Since I'm low on cash and don't feel like spending a lot of money on one of those ergonomically designed chairs, I bought this to equip on the chair I have now. You just need to strap it onto the back of your chair (preferably like the one shown in the picture) and it'll take away the pain from sitting up straight. I've been using it for a few weeks now and I find myself slouching less.

Bottom line is that this is a cheap alternative to buying a new chair if you want to improve your posture. Make sure to sit near the back of your chair and not near the front edge if you want this to work for you.

I tried two Obus Forme back rests with lumbar support. Neither worked in my compact car. Although one style does make the BEST bed support reading/computer pillow I have ever found.

The Obus Forme backrests put me too far forward in the cars seat and didn't leave enough seat room under my legs to be comfortable. I have also tried several other styles of lumbar support cushions (memory foam, etc.) that were either too bulky and felt like there was a "growth" on the seat so that I couldn't sit comfortably or the coutoured shape just didn't fit the shape of my back no matter how carefully I tried to adjust its location.

The Angel Sales lumbar support is PERFECT! It gives me the support I need, allows air flow behind my back during the summer months and has just enough give in the mesh to contour to my body shape perfectly.

There is also enough "give" in the mesh so that it can adjust with your movement and still offer support. Other supports I have used--even the memory foam ones feel hard and I found myself constantly leaning forward and reaching behind to adjust their location. I have never needed to adjust the mesh lumbar support after I am buckled in.

The only issue I have is that the wire portion of the seat is almost as wide as the small seats in my compact vehicle and I need to push the back support over just a wee bit to fasten my seatbelt. This is a small price to pay for this VERY comfortable lumbar support. Even with this slight adjustment every time I fasten my seatbelt, I would not change the size or the design of this lumbar support.

The design of this cushion allows it to adjust perfectly to anyone using it. Both my husband and I love this cushion even though there is a big difference in our size and height. It is amazing that one size does seem to fit all with this lumbar support.

For those that have commented on the elastic: When I first got this, I didn't attach it to the seat, I just set it in place and adjusted its location every time I got in and out of the car. Once I put the elastic around the car seat, I have not had any problem with the elastic breaking or stretching out.

I did manage to put a hole in the mesh on our original backrest. It still works fine although the mesh has started to soften and does not have the same firm support as when it was new. We have used it continually for over two years. The newer ones we've purchased seem to have a little heavier gauge outside frame for the mesh.

Our original mesh lumbar support is still in use even though the mesh has softened. It still offers enough support that I haven't felt the need to remove it from service. Even if I had to replace it annually or bi-annually, this lumbar support is worth the price.

I have purchased several of these for our use and given several as gifts.

The first time I put it on a chair, the elastic band that secures it to the chair completely ripped off of one side! Hopefully I can repair it without compromising the mesh where it attaches to the edge in that spot.

This product was shipped quickly, but that is the only thing I was happy with. It slides around & doesn't stay in place. The elastic is too loose. It is also not very comfortable & is cheaply made. I bought one for my husband and I, and he won't even use his. I keep trying to make it work, but I'm not sure for how much longer. I would keep looking if I were you.

I am someone who sits in front on the computer for at least eight hours in a week, and got this to help maintain my posture. The product does what it is meant to do. The only short coming is the lack of a vertical elastic band that can be used to place the support better on a chair. Simply having one horizontal elastic band that fits around the chair means I have to regularly keep pulling it up to the desired placement on the chair.

I had bought same product few months back. Since I was satisfied I ordered for one more. To my surprise when I received the product this time, it was not exactly the same quality as compared to the previous. This one is little smaller, mesh was loose, stripes at the back were much thinner. Overall it was very poor quality as compared to the original. So one may not always get the original quality!

Works fairly good ,just doesnt fit chairs without some kind of lower material support,if there is no lower cross bar or solid material,it slips through the open space thus defeating the purpose of back lumbar support....

I've had this product two days now and I wish that I would've bought another one for my car. On it's own it provides very good lumbar support, however, I added another small foam type lumbar support behind this one and it provides even more support. Worth the money.
