1 out of 5 stars Not worth the money   July 20, 2009

Don't order this item from any Florida companies. State law won't allow a return for a different size or even if the packaging is not opened.
Amazon and the Florida companies should post that this is non-returnable WITH the sales pitch. It is misleading. Instead the the return details are buried deep within Amazon's site.
Quality on this brace is suspect. The upper straps don't hold their adjustment and dig into the skin.



2 out of 5 stars Looks a bit odd, feels uncomfortable   February 2, 2009
L. V. Smart (NJ)
I have shoulder and back pain and had hoped this would help. I ordered a medium, and it fits fine around my stomach. However, it does dig quite uncomfortably into my armpits.

I wore it for about 4 hours today but had to take it off due to chafing.

I'll wear it over a light t-shirt tomorrow and see if that is any better.



1 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money   January 9, 2009

Learn from my lesson: save your money and don't buy this product. First of all, it offers absolutely no back or shoulder support. For the most part, all it does is squeeze your stomach. There are two flimsy, vertical strips that don't do anything. And the pieces that go over the shoulder are so flexible that they don't offer support, either. I'm going to look for a real back brace ... yes, it'll cost more, but at least it'll do the job. Don't say that I didn't warn you.

I have encountered some problems with this back brace. (1) it keeps 'riding up'; it does not stay put below the waist (I have a waist!), (2) one loses the shoulder tightening straps, and they are hard to get back to where they belong (3) It 'pilled' within a week. It is really not worth what I paid for it.
