A wonderful product!

The Brookstone Back Stretcher and Ab Trainer has worked very well for me! I could tell a difference after my first use, as I woke up the next morning without any back pain or discomfort.

Ab Stretcher delivers

This product was easy to assemble, is smaller than many ab contraptions and really stretches out my back. The only issue I have is the seat is small and not very comfortable -- I added a pillow!

Great product

This is just what I wanted and needed. It feels great. All the tension and compression is released from my spine when I use this back stretcher. I don't know if it does much for my stomach, you can't do crunches, but I bought it for my back. I use it all the time and my kids and friends love it too. After a long day working or even shopping, I stretch out and feel relaxed and relieved. The pain in my lower back has subsided tremendously!!!

Assembled easily and really works

I liked how quickly I was able to assemble this device. It took me about 15 minutes. Although it's small, when you use it appropriately, it's quite sturdy. I ordered it to help with poor back flexibility. However, I was quite surprised at how effective it was at exercising my abs. It seems the abs work to keep you stable while you arch back toward the floor. I recommend this product for people who are looking to stretch their spines but need some support while doing so. However, mind the instruction to move slowly. You get the best benefit from that.

Awesome product

I was originally going to purchase an Ab Rocket, but after reading the dismal reviews, I chose this Brookstone product instead. It was an easy assembly, and is very relaxing to use. If you recline to the maximum position, with you feet up, it mimics the reverse-blood-flow of an inversion table. I have C-5 and C-6 vertebrae fusion, and this product it totally relaxing!

great for back pain

This is a great product,suffer from back pain and after stretching using this machine I feel so good.Small ,so it does not require a lot of room.
If you need help for your back this is a Must!

I really like this , but...

I received this three days ago, and really like it. Besides stretching the back--it gives the abs a good workout, and I think it also works the butt area. Also it doesn't slide around.--The only problem I have with it--is it takes me a minute or two to get comfortable enough to lean back on it. The steal between the foam hits my back wrong. After I am comfortable--then it is fine. I think I am going to look for some foam, and put some in the middle. If not for that--I would give it 5 stars.
It's a keeper.

Really helps back feel better

2008-06-23
We purchased this after our doctor recommended it from his own great experience with it. It was easy to put together and very easy to use.It's too soon to tell if it prevents any more back issues but it really does help my husband's sometimes painful back stay loose and feeling good. Mine feels better after using it too. We both recommend the Back Stretcher.

Excellent Relief!

This product makes it easy for me to relieve my lower back of pain. I am able to hold in a position in which I cannot do otherwise on my own. It could've been built with a bigger headrest, but is not a negative.

It was easy to put together with the included wrench and I use it almost daily. Awesome product.
