  • I like it
I bought three different back supports strictly for the advertised thoracic spine support. This one is very well made and works as advertised. I could feel the support for my thoracic back as soon as I tried it. I was going to rate it 5 stars (it kind of deserves the 5 stars) but I think it could be improved upon by perhaps being a bit larger or deeper, so as to give a more pronounced support. But I like challenge. If it’s good, then it could be just a bit better. ... show more

  • This definitely helped me with sciatic pain
It feels a little strange at first since it's a bit different than a standard lumbar pillow. Pay attention to the placement in the literature that comes with it. It has helped me tremendously. Before I had it, I could hardly walk from the sciatic pain. I only wish it came in an inflatable version for travel. ... show more

  • Feels good while driving
I’ve been using this product for several months. It’s really been helping me to use better posture while driving and have less back pain too.

  • Very uncomfortable.
I have a bad back and riding in the car for a longer period of time can get painful. This was no help at all.

  • UPDATE! 8/2023 Seems to be the best back pillow I've ever had (I have a collection over the years!)
UPDATE AUGUST 2023: THE DESIGN HAS CHANGED! I bought another now and the long part of the T up my back is at least 2 inches shorter that the OPTP design bought in 2019. And the lumbar support cushion is now rounded and much thicker than the original which were less thick. SAdly I called OPTP and the customer service woman was not familiar with anything changing, but when she measured she also saw that the height was now about 15 inches and the thickness of lumbar about 3 inches. DOESN"T WORK FOR ME ANYMORE. ORIGINAL 2019 I discovered this pillow when trying to get comfortable in a new car drivers seat (before I purchased a car). I was at my wits end with the darn forward head restraints pushing my head forward. I was about to settle for an okay comfort seat that was a 'luxury car' that I did not want to have to pay that much for. Found this and it changed the seating choice down to a more affordable vehicle. I am also now using it on two different typing chairs and just took it on the Amtrak train or a 7 hour trip each way. (Guess what... the Amtrak NEW seats mimic the car seat 'slouch/slump back/neck positioning" this pillow made the trip comfortable and much easier to carry this T shaped pillow than other types of heavier support pillows. I was also able to fold it into a small backpack and then also into a cloth grocery bag that made carrying it much easier. I only wish they came with a 'pillow case' over the dark one. I have put mine in a pillow case on several occasions b/c it picks up pet hair easily and is harder to remove than just pulling the regular pillow case off. And having a light colored case in some instances is also visually easier to see and remember to take it with me leaving a public event, i.e. movie, etc. I have purchased two now, but am leaving one in the car permanently and so I am hoping to find another one perhaps slightly reduced in cost as getting three of them is getting a little pricey. I only put down a 4 on the comfort as the straps themselves really don't work that well on my car seat or other chairs but they seem to just stay in place pretty well without the straps. People keep asking me 'how it works' and I've given up trying to explain other than it just works! (to keep back straighter and supported so shoulders can relax and head not pushed forward! ... show more

  • Didn't Work for Me
I thought this Thoracic Lumbar Support was the answer to my problems while driving. While the lumbar cushion was comfortable, unfortunately the thoracic cushion irritated my spine. In my opinion, thoracic cushions that were positioned on both sides of the spinal column would have worked much better.

  • This could be a life-changing purchase.
After years of turning my lumbar support roll 90 degrees to give support to my thoracic spine, I was surprised and happy to find one product that filled the need for both areas. I was so pleased with the result from the first purchase that I bought a second one to use in another part of the house. I can now sit comfortably long enough to watch a full length movie or special on tv, or read as long as I want. I give this product my highest recommendation. ... show more

  • Meh
It's the right shape but too thick and stiff to use very long. It's been added to my complement of cushions and pillows to rotate on any drive longer than 1/2 hour. The Toyota Camry seat back is the WORST I've ever owned! Full power seat adjustment helps, but it's still AWFUL on long trips. Who are these car seats designed for, anyway? Surely not for me. ... show more
