Review by GTn Cats for Back Booster 1001 Inflatable Lumbar Support Cushion Rating: 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.

Review by S. Harrison for Back Booster 1001 Inflatable Lumbar Support Cushion Rating: 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.

Review by Adam for Back Booster 1001 Inflatable Lumbar Support Cushion Rating: I sit in a chair all day for work and usually finish the day with a sore back. After using this for awhile, I have no more pain at the end of the day and my back feels great! Also travel alot and love it on the plane too!

Review by E. Hansen for Back Booster 1001 Inflatable Lumbar Support Cushion Rating: I use this in my nursing chair - before getting it I was always uncomfortable while nursing and rocking my baby and my back would hurt whenever I got up. Now, my lower back is supported, the chair is so comfortable and I am not in pain anymore.

It is also great to use on the airplane because you can deflate it and it packs really small to fit in any carryon. I would highly recommend this product to anyone.

Review by Driving Diva for Back Booster 1001 Inflatable Lumbar Support Cushion Rating: I have to sit for hours at the computer to do my work, and my lower back has been bothering me on and off for years. I tried the Back Booster at the suggestion of a friend, and it is GREAT! It is easy to inflate and deflate when I move around to another location. The packaging is nice and fits in my purse. I have gotten more to give to other friends with similar problems as well.
