Fantastic...
Basics: The entire footrest is padded, including the sides, and the straps are adjustable. The strap also has a clip so it can be used for different types of trays/seats or hung between two trays if you want to share it. It comes with a bag for storage. The bag for the footrest is 10" x 8". With the footrest inside, it can be flattened down to about 1-1.5" thick so it's easy to fit into a purse or bag. The side pieces are 9" tall, the center is 8.5" long, and it's 7" wide. Plenty of space without being cumbersome. I meant to take pictures on one of the planes and I forgot. I'll have to update my review with those later.I don't know why I didn't buy one of these sooner. Well, I do know, "it's another thing taking up room in my bag/purse, you have to set it up and put it away. It would be a whole thing. I can deal with discomfort for a few hours..." I'm an idiot. The little amount of room it takes up in my bag and the little amount of time spent hanging it and putting it away is well worth the amount of comfort it provided. This footrest made a huge difference.I travel often. Anywhere from 6-10 domestic and at least 2 international flights per year. I normally fidget in my seat wishing I had a foot rest. I have back and joint pain due to a degenerative condition and neuropathy in my feet. The thought of being stuck in any airplane seat bums me out to say the least. I had a tightly packed trip overseas with 9 flights in under 2 weeks coming up. I knew I had to order the footrest. Man oh man. Being able to put my feet up meant I could easily reposition my hips and knees making my longer flights so much more enjoyable. I was comfortable! I was even able to sleep! I can't ever sleep on planes. I was concerned that the center panel would bend or crease from use, but it didn't. Time will tell whether that will happen or not, but I used it appx 18 hours and I didn't have any problems with bowing, bending, or creasing. Then again, I'm an adult of average weight and I'm capable of gauging an item's limitations. Be mindful not to put too much weight/pressure on it by using it to push yourself up or anything. If you're overweight and/or suffer from severely swollen extremities, the weight and overall girth of your feet and ankles would factor into how well the footrest holds up, but I can't speak to those variables. I can say that this flat mid section type of footrest would probably be a better option than the hammock style.I went with the flat mid section version bc it seemed like it would be more spacious, comfortable overall, and shareable. I didn't want a hammock style footrest (one that hangs loosely without the stiff center piece) bc I didn't want my feet to be cramped or pushed together and they don't seem particularly shareable. It worked perfectly for me.Downside- I could see the plane's crew deciding it was a tripping hazard and asking you to remove it. It depends on the crew and where you're seated, of course. It wouldn't be allowed if you're on one of the planes that has 2 rows as their Exit row since you can't even put bags under the first row of seats. No one said anything about it when I used it on my longer flights. If you're asked not to use it, please don't give the product a bad review for that individual crew's decision. I've seen people do that with other airplane products. If the product is shoddy or doesn't work as advertised, that's one thing, but giving one star reviews based on people and situations that have nothing to do with the actual product is unfair.

Very useful.
I'm petite and usually on a coach seat, for planes without foot rest, this is really useful for me and very comfortable. It's soft and sturdy!

Comfort and Relief for Long Flights!
I recently purchased the Airplane Footrest Made with Premium Memory Foam for my travels, and it's been a game-changer! As someone who stands at 5'5", finding comfort during long flights has always been a challenge, but this foot hammock has made a significant difference.Pros:Low Back Pain Relief: The premium memory foam provides excellent support, relieving any discomfort in my lower back during long haul or red-eye flights. It's a lifesaver for those marathon journeys across the globe!Comfortable for Long Flights: This foot hammock truly lives up to its promise of providing relaxation and comfort. It allows me to elevate my feet and stretch out, reducing fatigue and promoting better circulation, especially during those extended flights.Cons:Tray Table Dependency: One minor inconvenience I encountered was the dependency on the tray table in the seat in front of me. During a recent American Airlines flight in an exit row seat, where there was no seat back tray table, I couldn't fully utilize the footrest. It's worth noting this limitation, especially if you're seated in specific configurations.Overall, I highly recommend the Airplane Footrest Made with Premium Memory Foam for anyone seeking relief and comfort during their air travels. It's compact, easy to carry, and provides much-needed support, making those long flights much more enjoyable. Just be mindful of the tray table situation depending on your seat configuration!

You WILL bug the person in front of you
I tried this on a 6 hour flight. My legs are short and I get swollen ankles. I needed something. The product itself is ok, but you will most certainly bug the person in front of you while using this. As a matter of fact, within minutes of adjusting this thing, which hung over the inside of the closed tray table, I was already annoying the person in front of me because their seat inevitably moves when you tug on it or put your feet on it. There’s no way around it. So for my plane ride home I ended up ordering one of those padded foot rests and I was able to slide it under the seat in front of me when not using it. I don’t recommend this type of footrest on a plane.

Makes flying so much more comfortable!
This works exactly like it claims. I keep this is my travel bag and always take it when I fly. You can put both feet on it, or just one and it does help to alleviate pressure on my low back. It makes flying so much better and way more comfy. It folds up relatively flat and doesn’t take up much room, plus I love the carrying pouch it came with.

It broke!
I used it for the first time on May 1, 2024 and the middle board broke in half. I bought 2, one for me and one for my husband. My husband didn't use it, because the one used broke. I am in the process of returning it.
