Review: 2 - 3 years ago brought - I brought this in 2017. Not sure if it’s the same company. The price then was £60, after being recommended by a friend. I suffered from lower back pain and was not able to sit in any chairs Or lay on my back and I worked in the community as my job. I can honestly say this save me. At the start it went everywhere from the cars to sitting in restaurants, at home and In the office. At university, came to all my classes. This help relieve my pain, and I was able to sit in cars ( worst one). At the time I was 29 years old and believe me nothing to be ashamed of, to take it with you everywhere. I would not have been able to function if, it was not for this. Warning; When adjusting the clips at the back, follow the instructions. It was one of the most difficult things I have ever experience, if done wrong, it will damage the clips. Because I damaged it initially, the bit at the back broke two years later. I still use it in the car until this day. The price of this is well worth, the outcome. I can’t stop recommending this. I brought it again for a friend who can not sit for long.
Review: Much more comfortable on a soft sofa - I'd been having problems with my back and hips when sitting down for long periods for quite a while and had found a friend's sofa particularly uncomfortable to sit on for any length of time. The friend had one of these Backfriends and suggested I try it out for the evening. I found using it on their sofa was quite comfortable and better than the kitchen chair that I usually grabbed instead. Persuaded to try it for longer, I ordered one and took it away with me to a self catering cottage I'd hired for a fortnight. The sofa there proved to be even more squidgy than my friend's and extremely painful to sit in, but once I'd found a suitable part of the sofa having slighly less resemblance to a sinkhole than the rest of it, I installed the Backfriend (a very simple procedure) and would have enjoyed waching the (smart) television, had it not been set up to baffle an Oxford Don. I don't need the Backfriend all the time, but it seems sturdy and built to last and has very good back support.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: where can i buy new hinges for the backfriend**
A: Hello
I am out of the country at present so do not have access to the info you require" if you send me a message again in about 3 weeks I will give you the address.

**Q: Can this be used on a settee or does it have to be a chair?**
A: I've used mine on an arm chair, a car seat, and a couch. The thing about the couch is to be careful the couch isn't one of those that tends to collapse a bit towards the middle. If that were the case you might feel that the Backfriend felt like it was tipping sideways. I have two of these and I've used them constantly (daily) for years. I wore my first one out!!

**Q: If I purchase this and not suitable can’t I return item?**
A: I had two, I kept one and returned the other with no problem

**Q: Could the seller please confirm the colour is black for this double padded item?**
A: About 5 years go I bought one of these.  God for preservation of normal posture while sitting for long periods.
Colour BLACK as a rule I think.  J. Wilcox

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GREAT ITEM TO OWN AND USE
*by F***Y on 22 January 2015*

This is a fabulous item. use it all the time while driving and find it very helpful and comfortable. I have been using the Backfriend for many years but the clips broke in my previous one and had to replace it. Even though it is a very expensive item I wouldn't be without one. Great purchase
