    Useful support aid

    Review by L Davies Posted on 04/11/2016 08:30:05
    This bed backrest was a really useful aid for when I was recovering from total hip replacement surgery and had to sleep on my back for six weeks. It removed the necessity for mountains of pillows which would have moved around I thought. it was very stable and gave a secure basis for the support of just 2 pillows and allowed comfortable reliable sleep. A definite 5 out of 5.
