Even The Double Padded Model Is Very Firm. Fits Mild And Average Lumbar Lordosis Spinal Shapes. Not Recommended For People With A Deep Lumbar Lordosis Or Very Thick Thighs.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What colour is the actual product being shipped?  It's not in the description, there's no option to choose, but four colours in the photos...**
A: Ours is black.  We never had a choice, but we're happy because it has given comfort and support.  We've had ours for a year now.

**Q: In my citroen c4 - one side of drivers seat has collapsed so my rt side has no support. please say if the bf seat is rigidly supportive to solve this?**
A: I had a 55 plate C4 and now drive a C4 Grand Picasso with a collapsed driver seat. In both cars, this seat literally saved my back, my back is better after a long drive than before setting off. Buy this, you will not regret it... and it is a lot cheaper than buying a second hand seat

**Q: what is the width of the back support?**
A: The seat part is 40cm wide and the back is 30cm.

**Q: The Hinge on my chair has broken, can i buy some new ones. other than that chair is fine**
A: yeas you can buy new ones. contact Medesign company, Sales, directly

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Helped a lot
*by F***E on 17 October 2024*

These are expensive, but so is visiting the physio and these seem to have really helped with my sciatica so I am very pleased. They are also built to last.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good
*by P***N on 27 May 2025*

Excellent. Useful for home

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good posture on different chairs or sofas
*by J***P on 3 August 2016*

I bought this item as a result of being lent one to try, by a friend. I have been searching for something that would support my back and not slide down the back of the sofa . This helps to give me good and comfortable posture when sitting on the sofa or any chair. I bought two so that I can keep one in the car for when visiting or going to public functions where the chairs are less than comfortable for my back. Nothing complicated and easily portable.
