  Leaks - Don't waste your money January 22, 2008 This cushion lasted just long enough that I couldn't return it to Amazon. It developed a severe leak, and would not stay inflated for more than a few minutes. In looking at the reviews, other people experienced this same problem. Buyer beware. Don't waste your money on this product. It was a good cushion while it lasted, but one does expect something like this to last a bit longer than 40 days.
Update 02/2008: The manufacturer saw this review, and sent me two replacement Back Boosters at no cost to me. I must say that I am impressed with the company's extremely proactive willingness to make things right. I will test out the replacement, and post a further update.
03/28/2008: I would agree with the review from "Cat's Meow" posted in January, 2008. Three stars - it's an adequate product, but not too helpful for someone with severe chronic back pain.
  comfortable, unless you are fighting chronic or severe back pain .... January 2, 2008 If you don't have a real back problem, but want some lumbar support while sitting at a desk or computer this is comfortable. It works mostly with office/computer chairs, but the strap doesn't wrap around a lounger or recliner. Eventhough you can't strap it down, it does offer some support in a recliner. I had a temporary back problem and it didn't help. I gave it to a person with severe, chronic back pain, to try. Unfortunately, it was of little comfort. It deflates easy, too. I have to keep reinflating it. I rated it a 3-star (not less, not more) because it does have some benefits. Now that my back problem is gone, it does help at the computer. However, for real chronic problems I would try a different product.

Pros: Has soft fuzz-type exterior.
Cons: Strap did not fit around car seat well. Will not fit any bucket type or indented seats. It would work on a flat backed chair, but otherwise the strap is superfluous and gets in the way. The curvature is not adequate and being inflatable it does not hold its shape well. A firm type foam back support I had once that has a similar (but more pronounced) curvature and is much better. After a day or so of using it in my car it went flat.

...suddenly it deflates quickly. while it worked it was excellent. I have to locate the leak. Worked in the car (a few times) as well as home. I have had it for a month or so.
