Review: If you have lower back problems, just buy it! - I don’t usually write reviews, but I’m doing this one to help others. I have a myriad of back problems including scoliosis, degenerative disc disease, and flat back. It has gotten so bad if I stand for any length of time, the pain running down the back of my leg is excruciating. It seems I can’t sleep in a bed anymore because the pain and stiffness in the morning is unbearable. I have a Tempurpedic which I don’t recommend. I’ve tried various other beds and nope. I haven’t tried everything out there, but not super excited to spend $5K plus on a new bed. While searching for chair supports, I ran into this. Seemed kinda speedy for foam, but I was desperate. It has been worth every penny. I use the zero gravity set up to sleep and while I still have a bit of pain in the morning, it’s NOTHING like sleeping in a bed. I can actually stand up without much pain in the morning. It takes all of the pressure off my lower back. My bad has a chance to unclench and actually relax and rest. I also use a memory foam lumbar support cushion because the lumbar bump on the Backmax isn’t much and the extra support cushion really helps. I am a 6’ tall, about 175 lbs, woman. I bought the 28” and while my shoulders fit, they lay flat on the back piece which causes me dull pain. I use bed pillows on both sides to support my arms which is much better. I wish there were zipper-on arms. Speaking of which…spend the extra money…you want this one with zippers. I don’t see how separate pieces would work. I’m sure they’d come apart, plus, in my sleep I’d probably push them away and turn on my side. I am so comfortable on this that I don’t move around and it keeps me from being able to turn over anyway. I tried using the system on top of my bed, but I found it lost support. I keep it on the floor with a rug underneath. When you first sit down you’ll feel the hard floor under your behind, but once you lie back you kind of lift up and don’t feel the floor nor any weight on your behind. It’s awkward to to get off of it because of the shape, so you may struggle a little bit if you have limited mobility getting up off the ground. I sort of flip/roll off to the side, get to my knees then up from there. While I am plenty comfortable on this without a pillow and sometimes prefer that, it comes with an extra, softer neck pillow which isn’t bad. I tried a contour pillow, but due to the angle and firmness of the back cushion, it pushed my head up too much. As far as length goes, at 6 feet with a 34 inch inseam, with the expandable section between the the back and knee piece, I just make it. I’m too tall for using the foot cushion flipped forward, so I fold it back on the knee section and my feet are at the end without hanging off. You could just remove that part, but I don’t find it comfortable with my feet down and I think it takes away from the zero gravity. I think that if you are shorter than maybe 5’5, the proportions might be too long, and if you have an inseam longer than 34”, possibly too short, but I’d suggest trying it. As I write this, I’m visiting my mother. I ordered a second Backmax for her house, but, unfortunately, it didn’t arrive until the second day. I spent the night in the guest bed and all I can say is thank God I ordered the second one and it got here! If you are in pain and struggle to sleep because you need more lower back support and keep your spine straight, buy this thing!!!! The $250 is pennies compared to the relief I feel. Best wishes that you feel better!
Review: Magical: after abdominal surgery and double mastectomy - I don’t know where to begin with the BackMax Body wedge system. There are 4 pieces in this set. Half-Roll Pillow Back & Torso Wedge Knee & Leg Wedge Foot Rest You can use them individually or zip them up to make 1 big piece. There are so many different configurations depending on what you need. I had abdominal surgery and double mastectomy with reconstruction. A 12 hour surgery and came home 5 days later. The first night I could not sleep! I was so tired but no longer had the hospital bed. Trying to lay my legs flat pulled the stitches in my abdomen. I also couldn’t get the right support I needed behind my back and head. I was a miserable, crying mess. So I started looking. I found all different kinds of body wedges available on desertcart. The one I liked was the most expensive one- of course- this one. It wasn’t a whole lot more but I wanted to know is it worth an extra $50. The BackMax was a bit more than most sets. The reviews said it was worth it. The other thing I wanted was to make sure my arms could lay comfortably next to me. I didn’t want to end up on this narrow body wedge that I kept sliding off to the left or right. I loved that instead of the standard 20” I could buy a big roomy 28“. No doubt my arms would be fine. Let me tell you. It looked to be exactly what I needed. I was lucky and was able to get one the next day. I didn’t realize there were 9 different ways I could configure these wedges. I was so excited when it arrived. As soon as I got it I configured it to keep me in the “taco” position. This makes the lowest spot your bottom and doesn’t force you to stretch your body straight. It gives you support and keeps your legs and feet elevated. It places your body in a 120˚ angle – the most relaxed position for your heart, body, and nervous system. The Back & Torso Wedge elevates the upper body to ease digestion, snoring, and sinus congestion. The Knee & Leg Wedge reduce stress on lower back and elevate the legs to the approximate level of the heart to aid proper circulation. This set saved me. I was in so much pain. Having the BackMax I was able to sleep comfortably and that made it much easier on me to deal with everything I was going through. Things I really appreciated about the BackMax. So easy to reconfigure even with having to unzip and zip back up, good quality materials. Good quality foam. It’s very light. It did not have any smell at all- no dye or manufacturing smell. The cover is so soft. It is a Sherpa cover. Being in pain and feeling miserable, this set was comfortable and cozy that I looked forwarding to getting back in bed. Bet your wondering if it was worth it? ABSOLUTELY! This was well worth paying a little more for. You need to remember it’s not like they are inflating the price. The extra money is in the product. You’ve got way more product when you increase the width by 8 inches!! This is one of those “you get what you pay for”. If anyone I know has to go through what I went through I am going to tell them before surgery make sure you get you BackMax Pillow Wedges! In the paperwork I saw they have a travel bag. I’ll definitely have to buy that next. You need not hesitate on this purchase I promise you that you will be so glad you made this purchase. I’m glad I read the reviews and picked the BackMax! Thank you for this wonderful product. Nobody wants to have cancer, or wants to have surgery. I’m so appreciative of having the BackMax to help me get through it all!! The BackMax was like having a security blanket when I was a kid. I knew when I was hurting I could go slide into bed onto my BackMax and everything would be alright!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what's the difference between this model and the backmaxx plus?**
A: No really sure but I can tell you that this is well worth the money. I had shoulder surgery and had to remain with my head and shoulders elevated as well as my feet. This particular wedge system allowed me to sleep easier as it is wider than most and getting out of the bed without help was a big plus. The wedges are firm but give enough for a very good nights sleep. I actually used mine for months after surgery as it was so comfortable. I would recommend this model over any.

**Q: How do you keep this clean? By hand?**
A: I cover it with a sheet so it doesn’t require cleaning.

**Q: Whats the difference between the style plus and standard?**
A: The only difference between the two models is the Plus is 8 inches wider. All other features and measurements remain the same.

**Q: Has anyone found on this site or another website where I can purchase sheets or covers for this wedge bed set?**
A: I had my mom see a cover with twin sheets. The version I bought was the original set with cover. 
On the older version it had a zipper then snaps to hook together. If you are on the floor the snaps would come undone, and the zipper left an uncomfortable space where you were resting spins on floor. Once I had cover made it helped keep snaps together. 
You could make a no sew with fleece and Velcro. Or go to dry cleaners that does alterations and have them make a twin sheet ‘pillowcase’. Washable and you can fold the pieces for storage that way. 
I never got back max in the case once it was out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Magical: after abdominal surgery and double mastectomy
*by N***L on April 8, 2023*

I don’t know where to begin with the BackMax Body wedge system. There are 4 pieces in this set. Half-Roll Pillow Back & Torso Wedge Knee & Leg Wedge Foot Rest You can use them individually or zip them up to make 1 big piece. There are so many different configurations depending on what you need.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Difficult to get out of for elderly
*by S***N on September 1, 2021*

I purchased this wedge pillow system right after getting home from having open heart surgery. I had to sleep on my back for 8 weeks in order for my chest bone to heal properly and this system worked very well for that. However, it is a challenge to get in and out of bed when using the pillows but once you are in the sweet spot it is very comfortable. After the 8 week recovery period I only used the back support section occasionally while laying around reading in the afternoons but not at night. About 8 months later I hurt my back and had to stay in bed for a few days and I used the whole pillow system again. I found I could be pain free while in my sweet spot and enjoyed my recovery a little too much. Part of my back injury was that unknowingly I developed a blood clot in my lung and the doctor blamed the pillow system for being too comfortable because I wanted to stay right there and not get out of bed. Now it wasn't the pillows fault but mine. Just be aware that you can get too comfortable with these pillows. Lastly, I am over 6' tall and the pillows had to be unzipped to be long enough for me to use. There are 3 sections that can be zipped together and I wasn't able to be comfortable with them in that position. I was able to use them just fine being unzipped. Also, being that I am a big man I ordered the 28" wide model and it was perfect. We have a queen size mattress and this system takes up half the bed. My wife was not real thrilled with her side but for me it worked great.
