from Bentonville, AR Date Reviewed: December 19, 2003 Strengths: Very sturdy and supportive. Easy to use, although some manipulation is required on some frames like the Comfort 400. Company has a super warranty (see weaknesses) Weaknesses: The rubber tab that the straps attach to are a great design, but weaken quickly and tear off.
