King of Kings Lower Back Brace Pain Relief with Pulley System - Lumbar Support Belt for Women and Men - Adjustable Waist Straps for Sciatica, Spinal Stenosis, Scoliosis or Herniated Disc - Large

This is a great product. I have scoliosis and this brace is a definite help. I do a lot of deep sea fishing and a whole lot of bending. It keeps my back safe & secure. I recommend this product. I had to purchase two. One for my wife.

Solid fit nice support

MAJOR EDIT APRIL 2023:This is a fantastic brace with some serious key benefits. Worth every penny and then some.The preliminary adjustment is performed in securing the entire brace around your “trunk” tightly - using its wide Hook-N-Loop ends of the belt. But THEN the magic is performed by locating and pulling the 2 (one on each side) side straps -!fastened on each side of the brace belt. These straps are connected to the “web of support” on the back of the brace through “pulley” rings. They perform the compression that takes this brace to a whole new level. Pull them as tight as you feel comfortable (and safe) with. Then secure them around the front (they also are Hook -N-Loop). NOW you have a real back brace!After having it for months I realized I was missing the key feauture of this brace - the compression. I was only using the full width hook-n-loop to achieve the rigidity around my lombard area - but was ignorantly not using the two side straps that activate the compression function.This was totally stupid on my part - since that is what makes up the total genius of this brace! They perform the tightening compression function - by drawing tight the webbing on the back. Then - and only then - did I understand and experience the real help this brace is designed to provide.My paticular back issue is not important. But hearing it may aid you in your decision to better understand the potential for help in your own application.My spine degradation at 64 is chronic and painful, located just right of the L3-L4 discs.It is not there due to injury, but has been relentless for 2 years now. No non- surgical procedure has helped - although as recommended by my PCP & “Pain Mgt Doctors” - I have ENDURED them all, (therapy, MBB, RF Ablative, and 2 epidural shots).Scheduling with a surgeon is a 6 month wait - (which I am on the list for). But despite all the imageries both X-ray and series of MRI, I am still without medical help - other than my addictive pain meds and this brace.This brace enables me to perform life activities that were becoming too challanging due to the pain. I now do all my yardwork, walk - or ride my roadbike - daily, and the brace is key to maintaining these activities with the most duration and least painIt truly is “the king of kings” when it comes to REAL COMPRESSION back braces.I highly recommend this model for anyone in need of such - or contemplating which brace to buy.

This is my third brace in about 3 years, and I do have to say that this one is the best of the three as far as support goes. It also doesn't seem to have that suffocating effect just under my ribs the way the other two did at times. The only drawback to this one is that I don't like how much harder it is to loosen it when I'm sitting down and eating. Those two cinch straps are great, but it really takes some effort to un-velcro them both and loosen the grip a bit. Then, when I stand up to walk around (which is when I need the MOST support), I have to fumble for those cinch straps each time and get them adjusted just right.However, I do understand that without those cinch straps there wouldn't be the proper amount of support to both areas of my spine where I need it (thoracic and lumbar). So, I will learn to deal with the inconvenience because this brace appears to be the best one out there for the money.The quality of the materials is also a key factor. It's obvious these things weren't just thrown together with the cheapest materials they could find so they could make a quick buck. It seems to be very durable, and I'm hoping it will last a long time (knock on wood)...

Comforting, eases pain. Great for back support.

I think my main problems were sizing, bulkiness, and dealing with so much velcro everywhere. Instructions say that if your measurements are borderline, choose the larger size, which I did. For me, that was a mistake--everything was just too large and so, unwieldy. The hard front/back of the sidepieces extended too far and cut into my legs when I sat. Trying to adust the fit once it was on was also unwieldy because there is so much nice strong velcro that everything sticks to everything/everywhere on the brace, and once in place, it was hard for my hands to unstick a piece. Perhaps if I'd had a smaller size, some of these problems would go away, but I chose instead to use an old custom-made brace, which operates on the same principles but is lighter and very easy to adjust. I think this one might work better for a taller person--someone who isn't sitting down at the computer a lot, and is in a cooler climate. The return experience was very good--no problems and a very quick refund to my account.

The pulley system for increasing support is excellent.

Great support got a pinched nerve and this helps on tough days at work
