Review on πŸ‘• Large/X-Large Copper Fit Pro Back Belt Compression Brace by Richard Lamptey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good replacement - back, neck and shoulder brace

I had major surgery and as a result my stomach swelled dramatically. I don't know if this will last, but it actually ripped my L3-L4 spinal fusion gear. Ouch! I have been wearing a belt for the last 3 years due to surgery and a spinal deformity caused by major cancer surgery and needed to find something I could do that would help me until I see the gastrointestinal tract, who can repair the damage the surgeon did to my abdomen. I used Walmart brand clothing that looked like the belt I wear with my tuxedo. He offered about the same support. It's not a replacement for the 'real thing' so don't let anyone fool you, but if you need a little extra care for your lower back this is a great product. After my colon surgery I went from a drop size of 32" to 38" in 6 months and none of my actual back braces fit my huge belly full of infected gases. It keeps growing and growing and not a single gastroenterologist I've seen can solve this mystery. So I had to bite the bullet and buy something that is fully adjustable, lightweight and at least offers some support as I wear it under my jacket every day when I'm lucky enough to get dressed. This is the "right deal" for those looking for some extra support and a good replacement for those who need a temporary fix. I can't comment on the build quality or how long it will last as it seems to have weak velcro straps. Bert versus Walmart's house brand that folds into the bike's inner tube, I think it's the best you can get in the lightweight belt and lightweight brace category. Verdict: It's cheap, does what it's supposed to do for $20, and is worth what you pay for it. This is fully adjustable if you have a big tummy full of hot air and don't know how much bigger it will get before you figure out a solution on how to get rid of it - you need to go to a tire shop and insert the valve stem in your navel ---- It is a good substitute for the real store. Buy it, try it and you'll love it knowing what you're getting.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
