ComfiLifeFoot Rest for Under Desk at Work – Adjustable Height Memory Foam Foot Stool for Under Desk, Office Chair & Gaming Chair – Ergonomic Footrest for Back & Hip Pain Relief (Black)OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100

I didn’t think a footrest would make much of a difference—but this one absolutely has.I work from home full-time and spend most of my day at a desk. By mid-afternoon, I used to notice my lower back and hips getting sore, even with a decent chair. This footrest has helped more than I expected. It’s firm enough to give real support but soft enough that it doesn’t feel rigid or awkward. You can use it with or without shoes, but I usually go barefoot or wear socks and it still feels great.What I appreciate most is the adjustability. You can add or remove the bottom layer depending on your setup, and it’s stable either way. I’ve also started flipping it over and using it as a little rocker when I need to move around without leaving my seat.It’s light, washable, and easy to move from my desk to the couch if I’m working in a different spot. If you’re at your desk for hours like I am, this is one of those under-the-radar things that just makes the day easier.

I’ve always loved keeping my feet elevated and used a wooden foot stool for years. When I upgraded my desk, I figured it was time to upgrade my foot rest too—and I’m so glad I chose the ComfiLife Foot Rest!This thing is seriously comfortable. I don’t really use any of the alternate positions it offers, but the one I do use stays perfectly in place and provides just the right amount of support. It’s plush and soft—almost like having a pair of Oofos under my feet while they’re elevated. An absolute game-changer for long work sessions.Highly recommend if you’re looking to add a little comfort (and a lot of support) to your desk setup!

Well-built, good materials, only complaint is the rubber could be more grippy.

I ordered this foot rest to replace a foot rest I've used at work for the past several years. This particular foot rest, by Comfilife, was highly recommended by Wirecutter, which is why I decided to get it. I've submitted a photo of my old foot rest (on the right) vs. the one from ComfiLife (on the left). You will notice that there is a substantial height difference, with Comfilife being much higher. Note that it opens, so it can be used at a lower level (but it's flat). It took a day to adjust to the new, higher rest. But I've compensated by sitting a little differently in my work chair.It is sturdiness, yet soft. The covering can be removed and washed. I love the way it feels! It's definitely an upgrade from my original one.One other comment is that I chose the teardrop shape. I'm not sure how I feel about it. If done again, I'd likely get the classic. If I was at home in a more relaxed position, I might like the teardrop. But since I'm using this at work for ergonomic reasons, I'm not sure the teardrop shape is the best one.That being said, I'm very happy with my purchase. If you have back or hip problems at work, definitely consider getting a foot rest!! Once again, Wirecutter hasn't let me down with this recommendation!

Great product; everything came as advertised and I would say even better because I didn't anticipate how soft the material would be nor how comfortable the rocking feature with the teardrop version would feel. It has enough height adjustability for my needs and the grippy texture at the bottom and form of it for a comfortable and stable rock, again, is so much better than the old school textbooks I was using before.

Very light in weight but very comfy. Haven't tried it out in the 'rocker' mode yet (stationary mode feels good). Plus, the shipping time hearkens back to the original Prime era. Ordered on Friday, delivered on Monday (and I live in Hawai'i)!!

I love this footrest!!! I actually sigh when I use it. It’s soft and is exactly as pictured. I’m going to buy them as gifts for my friends who own their own businesses.

It’s so soft! There is multiple ways to use it since it has a zipper to detach the two pieces and it fits perfectly under my desk.
