If you need a lot of lumbar support, this will work out great for you. It is a little too much for me (5 feet tall) which is why I am only giving it 4 stars. I feel half of it would have been just right. Also, the strap that attaches to the chair or waist is okay, but I would have preferred a metal clasp rather than the plastic. I don't feel the teeth hold onto the strap well enough for a good, solid grip.

While I love the original McKenzie lumbar roll (I have one at the office and at home), it's a little too large for use while driving, so this is an excellent alternative. It would also work well for anyone who finds the regular size too uncomfortable or awkward to use.

This item is a godsend on long road trips. My cars seats don't have much lumbar support, and this definitely helps.

very annoyed with this seller. i ordered quantity of 2 early compliance lumbar roll. I had one and lost it. So, I ordered two, one for a spare. They are totally different. One is more firm, not firm but does not mush, the fabric is flat, just like the one I lost. the second one has a subtle diamond pattern fabric and is very soft, compresses completely, and I am a light weight.

I feel very cheated that a substitute was sent to me......I may take this up with Amazon.

use it as a neck pillow and it works great not as large as some of the neck pillows I have tried

The lumbar roll itself was very good but the problem was getting it in place and keeping it in place. I had purchased it for work where I frequently have to get up to attend to some task or other. The elastic meant to hold it in place very quickly twisted and stretched out. This meant every time I sat down I had to adjust the lumbar roll. About all the band did was keep it from falling on the floor.

It provides the low back support and most importantly, I have become more concientious at work about my posture when I am sitting all day long in front of a PC.

With ten years of reoccurring back problems I have kept old towels and t-shirts in my car(s) for years as I am frequently in need of additional lumbar support. When I learned from my physical therapist that they actually made special rolls that worked much better I was very excited. When I drove up to my mailbox and found the compliance roll with my other mail I couldn't wait to try it out so I stuck it behind me. To my dismay I heard a loud gush of air as the roll went nearly flat. I'm absolutely disappointed with this product. I also ordered Original Roll in standard firmness and it isn't much better. And to answer the burning question, no, I'm not 300 pounds or a big guy in any capacity. I weigh about 170 and neither product does much of anything in terms of lower back support. Stick with the old towels, shirts and pillows. They are cheaper and do a much better job!

This is too small for the office chair. Might be okay for use in the car for some but definitely not for office/computer chairs.

This is just what I was looking for. My old one finally wore out after many years and I needed a new one. This is it!
