“I bought this set of wedges to help find a comfortable position after major abdominal surgery. My abdominal and back muscles were aching and sore for some weeks, and I found that going for regular rests with the bed wedge in place really helped to ease the tension in those areas. I could relax fully because it firmly supports everywhere. With a cushion behind my head I can watch painting videos on YouTube comfortably too, all part of the healing process. My only gripe would be that as I’m 5' 9”, I found that the Velcro adjusting strips on the back support part weren’t long enough and I’ve had to completely separate the two wedges to allow underneath my knees to get comfortable. Would you consider adding another row, Putnam's? I wish I’d bought its travel cover with it, not for travel but for easy storage.”
“I’m very glad I got this and wish I’d known I could get one months ago due to oedema on my legs from abdominal complications. I do find it a little hard to get comfortable but it has made a bit of difference with my legs in just three nights so worthwhile.”
“Excellent product made of high quality materials.
My only constructive criticism is that it would be helpful to have a strap sown into the cover to help with positioning the leg raiser.”
Hi Simon, thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for your suggested product improvement. I have forwarded this to the relevant team. - the Putnams team.
“I have had one of these leg raisers for years and I ordered this one for a friend. The leg raiser is excellent and I give it 5 stars. Do NOT buy the cover it is very poor quality. The zip pull had come off the zip, two of the seams were not stitched properly and non of the seams inside had been overlocked. I had to mend the zip and remake it before it was usable. I was embarrassed when it was opened to think my friend payed £26 for it.”
“Bought for help with oedema and restless legs. S o far, so comfortable. Be good if, at this price level, the cover was offered in a darker, more practical, colour as a standard free option!”
