Is the cusion support for the lower back stiff(substantial) or soft? (I have a bad back.)

It is soft but firm. I find it very comfortable, but I don't have a bad back.

This chair was a gift for my daughter-in-law. I did sit in it and it is very comfortable. It's hard to comment on the support for someone else, especially with a bad back. It is more comfortable then others of the same style. The back did not seem stiff, but softer. Hope this helps!

Hi this pillow is not rock hard but I do find it has moderate support when sitting on the couch. It is a beautiful pillow I have two actually.

It is pretty stiff all the way through. That is OK to me; however, the curve of the cushion is too high to give me enough support in my lower lumbar, where my problem is. It is not really triangular shaped like others I have, but is almost even across, like a rising sun or something, if that makes sense. Hope that helps.

I'd agree that it is quite firm. It's not exactly soft. It is soft enough to be comfortable, but firm enough to support the body weight.

No, it does not remain stiff and flat, it is flexible. It is soft but supports the movement of my mouse very well-I highly recommend!

I also have a bad back and need support, you won't be disappointed in this item. The cushions are comfortable, but you don't melt into it and sink, having a hard time getting up. The backrest if soft yet angled nearly 90deg., I hate couches that lean back too far. I would rate this a 9 out of 10 on back support/comfort.

It isn't very heavy at all. When it is unfolded, I can move it around easily and I have a bad back. I use it for doing back exercises. Good quality for the price, I think.

It's very firm! Beware if you want it to cushion...it's very supportive and not cushiony.

I have the large and it's not stiff. It's really nice memory foam. The large is perfect for my 90 pound husky.

It is super firm - I really love it - it helps align my back after strenuous activities and just feels great!!

The back seems fairly supportive. I lean back on it...but not with all my body weight. I sit normally and am comfortable. As for the stability of the chair...the hooks are best. But... I have used it without the hooks to try it out. The bottom is rubberized so it stays fairly stationary. If you are a wiggle worm you might end up on the floor. If you sit normally you should be comfortable and stay put!

It is neither soft nor firm - it is a flexible cushioning support, like a gel shoe insert. Look at the detailed description and picture.

It's a firm bounce but I wouldn't call it hard. It is an excellent product. Unfortunately I am going to sell it because I hurt my back in an unrelated incident.

Hey there. For me, the lumbar support is good, and I'm a big guy! Hard to judge personal preferences when it comes to comfort though. Great value for the price. Hope this helps West

It is very firm. I am well north of 200 and it holds up fine. One thing to be aware of is that it is very slippery. You may need to cover it with something so you have some traction.

I've had mine for only a couple of months now but it's very firm which I figured a low end mattress would lose the firmness faster so ill deal with it until then. Its comfy but stiff. And it is not foamy has a little spring bounce. For the price I'm happy. Back has started to feel better since I got it. My okd one was a soft thin cheap pillow top that sunk in two years

It is supportive but I would say it is soft compared to my other one that is the 10 inch
