 Teeter Dex, roman chairOct 11, 2009
This is an alternative to a roman chair that I was looking for to reduce stress on my knees. I just had surgery on my left one. I've used a traditional roman chair for years to work on my back, as well as to sit on and do sit ups. The leverage on this chair is on the upper leg, so the knee is unstressed and it works for both sit ups and the traditional back up. My ideal roman chair permits adjustment of the angle for back ups, this does not, permitting only a horizontal back up. The decompression hang is ok and, at least, a bonus. The quality of construction is very good. Don't go swinging around on it because it can tip, but with normal use its very stable. There are cheaper roman chairs, but the price for what this is is fair enough. I'd highly recommend this for someone who wants the benefits of a roman chair without the stress on the knees and/or wants a simple decompression hang. Best for someone with a least a modicum of fitness.

 Low back reliefSep 10, 2009
I have a herniate disc at L5/S1 and this version of the teeter hang up has helped me so much. My sciatica down my leg has almost disappeared 1 month after using it. The first few times I used the machine it was uncomfortable for my head because of the pressure, but I have learned to go slower and it is much more comfortable now. It has taken me about a month to learn to relax my muscles, so there is a learning curve for sure. The quality of the machine is excellent. Very sturdy. Overall this is an excellent product.

Recommend with CaviatAug 23, 2009
Plus - Serves double duty as a roman table as well as a decompression machine.
Negative - The pads start to hurt the back side of your knees after hanging for a while.
All in all a good purchase. I recommend.

Best $359.00 I've spent.Sep 18, 2008
I was experiencing severe lower back pain for twelve weeks which became nearly "paralyzing". I received my DEX II within 4 days of ordering through Amazon. It was very easy to assemble and by the next day I was feeling much better; two days later I was almost back to normal and nearly pain free.

Great for achy backsJun 12, 2008
Well constructed, easy to set up and comes with all tools needed. Thighs are horizontal when inverted, so your weight is easily held on the pads and you can relax your legs and back. Pads quickly adjust to fit multiple body sizes. This takes up a bit of room and doesn't fold up, but is great for decompressing your spine. An inversion device was recommended by my chiropractor to relieve back and hip pain, and this model is worth the price.
