I just want to use this to watch tv in bed at my camper. Do you think it will keep me sitting up straight, if I want to drink.

I purchased this item for my mother, who was mostly bedridden. She somehow used to lean to the right (almost laying on her side), I believe it was deliberate, so she could look at the ceiling (?????), so I'd prop a pillow under the arm where she leaned. That being said, I do believe it will help keep you in a sitting position.

Yes, It is the only thing that helps my disabled wife sit up. She loves it. Should work great with a fine Scotch.

There is no restraint to keep you from leaning over. If the back is up against the bed backboard or wall, your back will have support. That's it.

It reclines back far enough that you feel a zero gravity position. It is excellent position if you have back problems. I bought mine to take in our motorhome to sleep in. It works fine. One comment, I need a couple heavy blankets down the back when sleeping in a cool room all night. The webbing may be designed to wick heat away from the body. Ideal for in summer heat. Not for sleeping in a cool room. My back is great when I get up in the morning.

Due to the size and thickness of the unit it may not be comfortable to sit in bed and lean on it while its in use. Sit in a chair is the best position to use in my opionon. Good luck

I believe it would help to a certain extent. It helps me with car sickness, air plane sickness and the spins when I've had too much to drink so I think it would help for the rides. It won't magically make you not motion sick. If you ride enough rides I think wristbands or not you'll get sick.

Hey, Mo from Bamboosa here. We do feel that the Lap Log works best if you are slightly reclined instead of lying flat on your back. The Lap Log does not really 'elevate' your device so in a totally flat position you would have bend your neck somewhat to get a good viewing position which may not be comfortable for everyone.

If you were camping it is great for the tent and provides enough to read. Not good for reading in bed.

I used mine to sleep when I had a terrible hotel bed. It helped me get to sleep, but I move around too much when I sleep and found it got in the way. But if you sleep in one position, then you might like it.

I have used it for sleeping in all positions. I was concerned about my hips bottoming out but it works pretty well. I used it in my padded truck bed in conjunction with a pick up truck tent. Hope this helps.

I am not the manufacturer, but the instructions say it is not meant to be used for sleep or during driving, so I would say no. I think it's meant to only be used 15 min a day while seated stationary. Hope this helps!

I use it mostly sitting up. I really think it will do the trick for you. Plus, when you can recline it is very comfortable. Hope this helps and good luck with healing process.

We have ours in our living room & find it very comfortable as a living room chair. You can leave it all the way up, or as I like to do, tip it halfway back for watching tv. I love to sit in it to read also although it easily puts me to sleep!

I guess it depends on your tolerance and how long you plan on sitting down. I have sat on it..but only for a few seconds. If you're comfortable and it feels okay go for it :)

I use mine in my bedroom with a small coffee table in front. I sit on it to have wine with my husband when we are stealing a moment away from the kids, or I put my feet up lying across it to read. Its firm but comfy.

I would suggest that you look elsewhere for your TV stand. This is a great coffee table, but the center of the glass is unsupported and therefore you may create a stress fracture over time. My wife and I sometimes sit at ours on the floor (that's what take-out does to people!) and I am always very careful to not press on the center as I get up... 75lbs sounds like a lot of weight if it is concentrated in the middle of this unit. Also, it is pretty low to the floor, so you probably would get more use out of a console or a unit designed for media (let alone the cords situtation). Hope this helps!

I use it in my car. I think it might be too thin for sitting on extended periods.

The product is meant to be used when sitting up, to keep your head from falling over in any direction. I guess you could use it while horizontal, and in theory it should work the same way. But I don't know if it would be as comfortable.

I think it would do ok in bed. The base should keep it steady enough. Might have to try that.
