I work in finance and thus spend long hours sitting in the office. This back cushion provides good support - much more so than what even a good ergonomic chair with lumbar support provides. There is less strain on the back, and it also helps in that it makes my posture when sitting much better.

I believe the cheaper back support pillows tend to be made of materials of inferior quality, whereas the more expensive ones are more of a fad. This has been around for a long time, and you know what you get.

I would recommend this product to anyone who sits for prolonged periods of time. I do not have any particular back problems, so I cannot speak to whether this is appropriate for specific ailments/conditions, but I would recommend giving it a try.
