5.0 out of 5 stars This Gives Us a More Comfortable Night's Sleep, September 18, 2009

I purchased this product as heavy quilts/bedspreads/blankets hurt my toes when I am on my back. I purchased two, one for my side of the bed, and one for my husband's side of the bed. I am glad I did, as he loves it. Some reviewers rated this lower because they said that the item did not hold the bedding up all night. I used a pair of pliers to tighten the wing nuts down, as I could not get them tight enough to hold our blanket and quilt up when I tightened it by hand only. Once tightened properly, it works very well. I set it up 3-months ago, and have even folded the quilt back on top of it during hot nights, and they have not slipped down at all. Using the pliers for tightening, this is a very easy product to set up. However, although the product is perfect for us, there are some elements about the product that may cause it to not be right for you. This support will only work well with a mattress that is a standard height. If your mattress is higher than the standard size, this will make the space between the mattress and the top of the support less, and in my opinion the space would not be large enough, even for someone with small feet. Another caution is that if you are someone that likes your bed to always look neat and pretty, I don't think you would like this item at all. It is true that you can collapse the support flat during the day, but this involves folding back the covers at the foot of the bed so that you can unscrew the support to lower it (remember I used pliers to tighten), then you have to tuck and smooth the covers at the foot of the bed for the normal look. What a lot of bother! We just leave it in place all the time. It gives your bed an unusual look, but we don't care. You might, and if you would care, think about the bother to lower it, and ask yourself if you could live with that on a daily basis.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too short for a pillow top mattress!, November 23, 2008

great idea but it needs to be taller to benefit higher pillow top mattresses. It is too short so instead of creating a tent effect the bar gets in the way of the foot. It would work great if it were taller with a wider oval area to creat a bigger tent area.

4.0 out of 5 stars Blanket support keeps covers off your feet!, September 11, 2008

This was a great product to use after my bilateral knee replacements. It kept all the bedding weight off my feet and lower legs. It could be a little wider, but I didn't find any others any wider than this one.
