Why it's worth it

The QUTOOL is a firm, generously sized memory-foam cushion held on by two long straps instead of one. It's the cushion we'd hand to someone who keeps having to reach behind their back and shove a pillow up again, because this one mostly doesn't move.

The single most common complaint about lumbar cushions isn't comfort — it's that they slide. One elastic strap around a chair back is a loose promise. QUTOOL uses two adjustable straps, and the company lengthened them rather than shipping separate extenders, so they reach around wide task chairs and truck seats. Owners who fidget, swivel and get up constantly report the cushion is still in place when they sit back down.

The foam is firm, and that's deliberate. Soft cushions feel great for ten minutes and then flatten under your weight, which is when the support quietly disappears. QUTOOL's molded high-density core pushes back steadily instead. Several owners mention the first day or two feeling almost too firm before their back adjusted, then not wanting to go back. If you're used to a squashy throw pillow behind you, expect a short adjustment period.

From our review of 8 lumbar support cushions, by Eleanor Vance, Health & Beauty Editor

What we like

• +The single most common complaint about lumbar cushions isn't comfort — it's that they slide
• +The foam is firm, and that's deliberate
• +The cover is 3D mesh, removable and machine washable
• +It's a big cushion — roughly 16 inches tall and wide, with wings that wrap slightly around your sides

What to know

• –It's thick. In a small car, that extra depth pushes you noticeably closer to the wheel, and a few owners found the wing shape…
• –Firm and large also means warm
