Getting it into the perfect place was annoying. But once that was done I liked the comfort of it.

I would definitely recommend....
I am so happy with this product for several reasons - 1) Its the only footrest that I found that has 3 adjustable heights with the highest being almost 7". This is great for me being only 5'2"! 2) It adjusts very easily...to raise it, just pull up to each height and to lower, hold the front and tilt it back. 3) It tilts back and forth, for added comfortability and increased circulation. The one thing I don't like is the raised hard dimples. I know these are supposed to increase circulation in your feet, but I found them rather uncomfortable.
I bought this yesterday and although the plastic looks a bit cheap and it squeaks when you adjust the height and when you rest your feet and tilt the platform back and forth, I like it. I use the maximum height because i like to strech my legs, too and due to the tilting feature, I can do that. Maybe I can use some lubricant to stop the squeaking.

Best foot rest you can get
I've had this for about 4 years and it works great. It is the only footrest you'll find that goes to a full 6.25" in height, so if you are 5'3" or shorter, a standard footrest probably is not going to be high enough for you. If you are taller than about 5'7", you could probably get a standard foot rest. This one is very solid, and while the height is not easy to adjust, I have needed to adjust it exactly one time--when I took it out of the box--unless your height fluctuates from day to day you'll never have to change it.

Hard to adjust and will break after a year or two
I spend 75% of my time in front of my computer so I needed a solid footrest. Bought this one after comparing many models. It worked well at first - but the cheap plastic started cracking - and the lever is actually not that easy to manipulate. Ugh.

Good design, but break easily.
My husband and I both bought one Eldon Height-Adjustable Tilting Footrest for our offices. We were delighted at first, because it did seem to relieve back pain and adjust our sitting positions. However, a few months later, two piece of plastic which change positions snapped off on his footrest. I thought he was not gentle enough. Not long after that, mine broke too, just when I needed it most (pregnant women have achy back!) I swear I was very gentle, and with my husband's experience, I was trying to be extra careful with it. Oh well. I will need to get another one. This time, I will buy one with metal support.

It was just lovely until it broke
I bought this to use at work and liked it a lot. However, one month later, it broke. A piece of plastic snapped off and now I no longer have three positions. Just one, flat on the floor. If you buy one, treat it gingerly and push it aside so noone else will use it when you're away.
