Do these seats work to support one's back when sitting up in bed using a laptop?

You'll be able to use it in bed using a laptop. I've done it before. The only issue is that whenever you're trying to sit up straight it works better than if you're trying to lean back into the pillow because it will tilt back. I had to do a lot of repositioning but I have a broken tailbone so not sure if your question is relayed to a similar injury.

I can't answer that but here is the number to call BackJoy: 1-800-BACK-JOY. I love mine!

I bought these for my Mom but I have sat on them. She bought cushions for the bottom but not the back and I didn't notice any problem sitting in them. They seemed fine to me. She loves them. They are very sturdy.

Yes make certain the weight is down at your lower back. Don't try to fight it. It helps you sit up straight without thinking about it.It relieves back pain from sitting at the desk for hours.

No it works any direction. But it's not very sturdy. It does help to rest your laptop on but you will need to support it with your legs. Also, the laptop easily slides off. I give it a 5 out of 10

Not I - they're very, very good for use as pillows but lack the stronger support you would need as a back support. I've seen, at Pottery Barn, I believe, some very nice, up-scale 'study-buddies' that I think would work better for your needs.

Have had no problems with this issue. I often use the laptop on my lap and it seems firm to me.

they are comfortable, but the back isn't super high, so if you're someone who needs a lot of back support I'd look elsewhere. we use them in our kitchen at the bar for meals etc, but haven't used them for hours at a time

I've successfully used this product while laying flat on my bed. The screen is parallel with the ground, but the body of the laptop is most definitely not - my computer doesn't "flatten" out and using a laptop in that fashion would be difficult. It's worth noting, I do this with a separate bluetooth keyboard and touchpad sitting on my lap.

Yes. The seat back is held up by straps and these can be loosened to let the seat back go nearly flat.

If the pain is muscular, it might help. It's eased some of the stress in my back when I sit for long periods. Depends on the type and reason for pain, and posture when sitting. I also use it as a back support (behind my lower back) when I'm sitting on the couch watching TV or reading. It's great for that in my case.

It's OK, nothing substantial or fancy here. Because you can recline them, I always am able to find a comfortable position, but for people with any kind of back problems, I wouldn't count on these chairs to meet your needs.

On sides - yes, it supports well; on back - not necessarily, especially if the pillow is overinflated (it is designed to work when you are sitting).

Yes. The back of the laptop compartment is padded. Laptop feels comfy and secure in there.

Yes - the shape makes it more comfortable than you might think. I sit in it a few hours at a time when working on my computer with no problems. It comes with a thin seat cushion that makes it more comfortable.

I found myself setting in one of these chairs in my Doctors office and found that it helped ease my lower back pain. On that experience I purchased one for myself. So, yes I find that the chair has excellent back support .

they are comfortable I have mine with a back pillow but I just use them as accent chairs. they are not very high so it depends on your table height.

Yes. The seat is comfy and the back is firm,but beware of the legs just don't over tighten them.
