Looking for something to support my bad back while sitting on the floor playing with my 1 yr old daughter. Would this provide enough support?

I use this to sit on the floor and play with my dogs. I find it very supportive for my back.

I am pleased with the firmness of the back, it's adjustable too, and the support it gives me. I have only used it on gym bleacher seats so far and have been grateful by the end of the tournament that I had it. I would not be able to answer for you on how much support you would need but I would recommend this chair!!

I used the seat for a stadium seat at ball games, but the back is adjustable and I believe it would give you support.....

Yes, very firm and strong support. My wife uses hers for computer work sitting in bed.

I also have a bad back, which is why I bought this chair. I'm not sure how severe your situation is, but I found that the chair is durable enough for the price and has different degrees of incline which you can manually adjust the back to. All in all I think this chair is a good option for back pain.

The back support is decent if you're just sitting, not great if you're more active though. The chair takes up some space when stowed. I personally wouldn't want to tuck it into a corner of the living room because it's not compact enough but you might have more space than I do. I don't see it as a "daily use" kind of thing. Great for dragging to the park once every couple of weeks but not great for dragging around daily.

No, this is a small chair and will not accommodate or support even a small adult. It is really "great for kids", not adults.

If she is not having to lift it I would say it would be fine for her. It isn't super heavy but it is awkward. We have found that slipping the foot rests off helps. It rolls well and the seat could use some more padding, but a memory foam type cushion works well in the one we bought my dad. The 16" width fits easily through most doors.

No I don't believe so. But it is great for carrying your child on your back.

The Support Is Pretty Good. Our One Year Old Leans To The Side And Her Head Stays There Without The Straining. She Does Tend To Just Hang Her Neck Down The Middle. When That Happens, Theres Not Much Help

You really do need some one there---How frail is Mom?. I'm not joking. My husband and I went through numerous Maxi rub's. Not because they are bad---but it's the greatest and best gift I ever gave my construction worker husband. We used to do each others backs every night for 1/2 an hour each and it really did the greatest number on our backs. He's passed now and I really realize what a great deal of help that massager was doing for both of us. I miss him---and our 1/2 therapy with that maxi. It would be awkward if it was for your Mom to do on her own. If she had a lower back problem she might be able to "prop" it in a chair and lean against it. If she's elderly it might be a problem. I'm 64 and I bought myself a "Shiatsue" massager (sp). If your Mom has siatica (sp) that might be a problem too. Some women who have Calcium deficiancy in their bones might find this uncomfortable. There are cheap models under a 100.00 out there but they aren't much good---the one that's about 125.00 or so is great---My boss borrowed it and 4 friends---I had to threaten one of those to give it back. They are like a matte that you sit on with a back. The good ones have metal or hard plastic balls in the back part that go up and down---mine can go side to side along the spine---you can also use the remote to hit the button to make it stay in one spot. I love mine---If any of this is too much sometimes a plain old heating pad works Let me know if you need more help-I've had back problems my whole life with a handicap child

No. It is only about a foot from the ground and the kiddos feet are on the ground, or the shouldnt be on it. If the little one isnt able to manage a strong upright seated position and control their balance fairly well I wouldn't use it. There are carseats on pulleys for littler ones that require more positional support.

It will hold him, but the back is so low, I wouldn't call it comfortable. I'm 340 and it holds me just fine. Seems very sturdy.

Yes fabulous back support. You place the center part behind your back and the sides buckle in front of you. Go to Twin Z website to see a video and photos

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fkfhupn2xQI bought this for my 1 year old grandaughter, she is petite and had more than enough room for another 1year old. We put a pillow in front when she first received it. Now at 1/ 1/2 years old you could still get two in, but depending on their body length it might be less room than you want. I am including a link that has an adult sitting in it, so you can get an idea. It has worked well for us, but if you have two larger children, you might look at something a step up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fkfhupn2xQ

No. You need to provide a support pillow for that My daughter has the tiny love seat which provides much more support

I haven't sat on it. I keep my grandsons' toys in it. I'm not sure if it would be strong enough to be sat on. Someone that doesn't weight much would do ok, but anyone that is heavy, I wouldn't suggest it.

My 81 yr old mother said it supported her back and relieved the aches. She does have a bad back and that was one of the reasons I selected it. Combine that with the fact I purchased it due to her impending knee surgery and knew she would need the leg support. It worked wonderfully. In fact she has left it in her living room and is using is as a recliner.

Not sure it is designed for that but I have a bad back and these chairs are very comfortable to sit in. Not once does my back ache after sitting in them. These are my home chairs but the ones I use at work are bad on the back. I highly recommend these.

I want to ensure the "BOTTOM SUPPORT" of this seat is going to be comfortable for EVERYDAY USE, along w the "BACK Support". My child just turned 2 years old 4 days ago. He is custom & VERY use to His "Chairries/by JonTi-CrafT" but enough eating in living room!! Does anyone feel this Transition of not only The Cairrries but his own personal"Security, Stability, Safty" WILL BE MET BY THIS PRODUCT?

I think you would probably need some sort of insert so that they don't roll too much. It seems better for a kids that's sitting up on his/her own and doesn't need much support.

I'm sorry but I have only used it to sit the back is strong enough to help you lift yourself up. I hope this helps
