Footrest works well and is very sturdy. Directions would have been nice but looking at the product picture helped to make sense of the parts and how they fit together.
Very helpful to get feet and lower legs not so dependent all day. Comfortable to have a resting place for legs while typing for long periods of time. Really like that it is adjustable, does not slip, is very well made, and makes my legs feel better. Still a good idea to move around every couple of hours, drink some water, walk a little, but once back ready to type again, legs are much more comfortable than just on the ground. Exactly what I was looking for.
I'm 6' 3" and the platform is too narrow for my feet to be placed in a natural position. I tried to make it work but my legs would lean outward which caused pain in both knees after only a short time. I even went so far as to tie one of those large rubber bands used for exercise around my legs to try and keep them together but this was tedious and not completely effective. The other problem is that if the platform is going up and down, it should also tilt, which it doesn't, and it would also be nice if it had a raised edge on the heel side, or the ability to flip one up so you really felt like you could relax your legs instead of feeling like you need to focus on keeping them perched on the thing. Unless you're a smaller person and only plan to use this occasionally for short periods of time, I don't really see this doing the job. I got the product in hopes it could improve circulation issues since I work from home at a desk. Now I'm thinking I will have to build something custom.
Easy to setup, perfect high, adjustment capability, good design.
Very impressed with the foot rest. It's larger, can be adjusted to a quite high height, and is very solid and stable.Assembly is easy. The vertical piece slots into the base. And then the foot rest hooks into whatever position you want.The way it's designed, you can also place your feet to either side of the vertical piece, which effectively gives you an even larger footrest.Recommended, particularly if you need a larger height footrest!
