Overpriced, low quality, not recommended for everyday use.
I purchased the regular firmness roll. Firstly, this product is not worth the +$20 that it is listed for. It is made of craft store foam inside a zipped cylinder with cheap, craft store elastic attached at each end. Anyone with basic sewing skill could make this for around $6, likely making it much better.
The firmness was perfect for 2-3 weeks and now it has started getting spongy and losing support, this means the foam has started to break down. The manufacturer clearly did not use a high performance foam if degradation has started in the first month.
The elastic strap is made of the generic elastic from any local craft store. The bands have already started showing loss of elasticity. The reason for this is the movement of sitting down allows for the support to roll down with your back winding up the sides of the elastic where they are stitched to the cover. After two days they were so twisted that the elastic started to separate. This is a poor design. For long term use the manufacturer could have used nylon straps with length adjusting buckles.
I do not recommend this product for long term or everyday use as it is not made to quality standards that can endure the regular abuse of everyday life. I'm sure it would last if you put it on your computer chair and used it when catching up on emails in the morning but I put it in my car and spend about two hours of driving everyday, sometimes longer. Most people post reviews a short time after the receive this product but I have used it and tested it for a month and I have already seen this product degrade in that short time.
