Just had shoulder surgery and have to sleep on the couch as the back of the couch supports me, so my shoulder does not move. Can I use this in the bed and get the same support?

I used this pillow for knee surgery but could see how using it support your shoulder would work. The pillow doesn't move around easily and wouldn't slip around on you while you're sleeping like a stack of pillows would. Good luck!

No, Pillows always worked best for me. I have had both shoulders repaired, this would be too high for my shoulder.

Probably not. I have had 4 shoulder surgeries. A recliner chair is good to sleep in. Or rent a hospital bed so you can crank up a comfortable angle.

I used this to elevate my lower leg and ankle after surgery. The elevation is 8 inches high with a platform of 15 1/2 inches deep by 21 inches wide......don't know if this would work for you.

It depends how snuggly you guys are. I used it in a cal king and my husband thought it got in the way. The supports at the corners are kind of hard and uncomfortable if it gets pushed into you. I preferred to put it on the coffee table and sleep on the couch in front of it, or I slept alone on a queen mattress with it next to me. Hope that helps

The problem would be that if you are using it in the upright position and you lean it against an arm of the sofa, it would be too tall and would tend to tip back. If you are using it in the wedge position and laying down it should work fine.

I do not know , the bed cane attaches to the bed frame , if you couch has some type of frame I guess it would work with adjustments are made. I would contact Stander Company.

Not at all. You can be completely on your back in bed or in any position you like.

Imagine the letter "L", except with legs. The bottom part of the L is what slides under your mattress, holding the whole contraption upright beside your bed. So you need to have a mattress on your sofa bed for that part to slide under. It also has a strap to go around the boxspring, and I think you could use it to secure it to the platform of the sofa bed. So it should work as long as you leave the sofa bed unfolded and secure the strap firmly, although it may not be secure enough to withstand a lot of heavy use.

Hi NormaYes you can use this in bed, and you can also use it in a seat as a lumbar support.

I didn't try to use it for a slight slant in the couch, so I don't know, but I doubt that it will give you a comfort relief. You can find a better option for sleeping aids in the store "Relax the back", their website is http://www.relaxtheback.com/bed-wedges.html. Good luck!

It actually might not work for you because the stepping combination, along with the treadle action does have an alternating upward step motion. This may actually be more irritating for your back, since it alternates stepping up. I am a therapist, but check with either your PT or your MD who did your surgery.

It probably can be used on a sofa bed, but would not nearly be as safe. It uses the box spring for stability. I would not advise it. Andrew Wright (occupational therapist)

If you mean a sofa that pulls out into a bed, then I suppose you could use it, but only when the bed is opened and take it out before you fold up the bed. Also, the one I got is twin size, so if your sofa bed is wider, then you'd need a wider support as well.

I doubt you can use this with a couch. It is held in place by the pressure of a mattress against a small disk.

Hello! I bought this podium desk with the intention of standing in front of it and using my laptop. It has been a Godsend because my hips (arthritis) no longer bother me because I am not sitting! Never used while sitting on couch--you can adjust the height to use there if you wish, I would think. Depends on how tall you are and height of couch. Hope this helps you somewhat! I LOVE this desk!! Good day! Patty

Yes you can use it while you're laying down it's a very good to use in bed and recliner. This is a very good item to have I use it for my iPad or use it from my MacBook Pro 13 Laptop. It's very will constructed, all wood. I highly recommend this product.it's the best bed table I ever had.

Since it is nothing more than a cushion, yes, of course you can use it in bed. However, I have NOT done so, and therefore cannot comment on its effectiveness used this way.

I wish I could tell you a special trick to use but my daughter folded the couch into position before I got home. She did it by herself which surprised me because it is very heavy.Maybe if you got another person to help, you could put it in place. I know I could not have done it alone.

No. I tried doing that and found the bed or couch is not solid enough to hold everything steady while using the tablet.
