The chair gives good support but it doesn't tilt at all which does make it a little uncomfortable but overall works well

The boss task chair has worked great for my aches and pains. I find that when I sit in other chairs my pains come back, so now it is all Boss.

The chair is very firm. It is good for my back. I would have preferred the seat to be softer, but it is ok. It is important to have your hips and knees at a 90 degree angle to relieve stress on the back.

I have serious back pain and this chair is really great. The seat keeps my back straight while it also cushions the lower back.

The chair does have the built in lumbar support and seems to work quite nicely. My husband, who uses the chair, seems to think it does the trick for him and he has a somewhat sensitive back. Hope that helps.

we have been using our chair for over one year. it has served us well. it is great for upper an lower back, stomach crunches and different shoulder and arm muscles. we do recommend it especially for people who can't do strenuous exercise or a lot involving leg mobility. the chair is well made and very durable.

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 .

This chair was a gift for my daughter-in-law. I did sit in it and it is very comfortable. It's hard to comment on the support for someone else, especially with a bad back. It is more comfortable then others of the same style. The back did not seem stiff, but softer. Hope this helps!

I have not been using this chair for more than 2 hours at a time so I cannot say how it feels after 8+ hours. It is comfortable and sturdy enough for me (120 lbs). I would probably prefer a head rest for longer sessions because I like to recline occasionally.

It is an O.K. chair. I sometimes sit in it to rest my back But I would not buy it for a bad back. I think it would be better to look for a more solid chair.

I wouldn't say "great" but it is pretty comfortable. I am about 6'1" and go close to 400 lbs. I use the chair in my home office and spend a considerable amount of time in it. I would say it is a pretty good chair for the price and I have had no problems using it the last 6 months I have owned it.

I just noticed that I don't have any back pain since I got my chair. It's not too big so I don't need to lean so much,so I guess its good enough

I have used mine 3 or 4 times now. The back is very supportive and comfortable. I have only been able to use the hook once, but felt the chair was very stable in all cases. I am a large man... 6'3" and about 280 lbs. I love this chair.

You have to sit up straight so you don't fall off?..don't know, but its comfortable and it doesn't hurt my back...I use it when I work on crafts.

I use this acupressure mat for my back problems. Since I'm working on computers 24/7 this thing does the job to give my back a break. I recommend it to anyone , but it does take some time to get used to it , due to the fact that it is sort of uncomfortable at first. This is not for everyone, especially to the people who are very sensitive to touch. But for me, it has helped my back pain.

Very little - the chair, it appears, is for use primarily for constant activity and not much for relaxation.Hope this helps.

I've been using this chair for the last 6 months to help ease my back pain. I use it for my job for about 8 hours a day. I've never felt any pressure on my thighs. It forces you to keep better posture and to reduce the twisting and turning of your back that one would normaly do in one day. All in all, my back feels wonderful and I do not have the constant pain that I previously had. Hope this helps.

I have a slipped disc in my back and have been using this chair for a week. It works very well for me.

I've had this chair for about 6 months. I think it is very comfortable, and works for long sitting sessions. It does a very comforting rocking setting, and it is to turn off the rocking as well.Lee

90 per cent or more. I love it. I used to have lower back pain and only every so often I use it and it works for me. It is good for other reasons too.
