THUNDESK Yoga Inversion Bench Headstand Prop Upside Down Chair for Balance Training Core Strength Building Backbends Yoga Asana Practice Chair

I wasn't expecting to love this thing - but now I'm not sure I can go a day without it. I actually use it multiple times a day and it has been my HOLY GRAIL for relieving neck pain from sitting all day staring at a computer screen. I'm serious, I tried everything - yoga, foam rollers, those hard rubber balls, peanut balls, that large back/neck roller with the raised foam bumps all over it, severalbmassage therapists - and yet no success until I got this headstand bench. Complete neck pain relief like magic. I found it super easy to use. I'm a 28 year old female, 120-ish pounds, and the headstand part wasn't hard at all for me. I had the whole thing assembled in 15 minutes and I was in a headstand on my first attempt. After two days, I discovered that the key to getting an amazing neck stretch is to keep breathing while you're upside down (don't hold your breath going up). That also helps to avoid feeling lightheaded afterwards (seems obvious now, but easy to forget in the moment when you're upside down). My younger sister is 26 years old, about 110 lbs, and she really struggled to hold herself up in a headstand - so I guess the ease of use really just depends on the strength of your core. But once you strengthen your core enough to get yourself up, you'll start to experience the benefits to your neck.Oh and I personally think the curved shape of the wood is MUCH more ergonomic and practical when compared to the competition. The bench is super sturdy and very comfortable. I'd definitely buy again.

2/4 of the eyelets didn’t sit all the way down in the holes so I had to dig them out and try to finagle the screws in there. So it took about 30 minutes longer to assemble than I thought. I’m also slightly disappointed there’s no front seat. Overall seems like good quality!

My yoga instructor brought hers to the beach and I loved it so much I bought my own. The only reason it’s not getting a perfect review is it slides on our floors. I’m going to have to adhere some sort of grip tape to the legs or find an old mat to specifically use this with.

I love this handstand bench! I am on my (once again) weight loss journey and right at 200 lbs. I have not been active since COVID hit. I ordered this with the hope of someday getting my feet up for some handstand exercises. First evening those toes were pointed to the stars. I feel stable and can already do handstand movements to engage my core etc. I also use this to stretch my back prepping for doing a backbend one day.Super easy to put together. 8 wood pegs and 6 bolts. Came with instructions for construction as well as movements on the bench itself.Does not have the cushion to slide in and turn this into a seat. I find this to be a positive as I prefer it not be used for anything else.Does not fold down and hide away. I keep it in my living room next to the tv. It helps remind me to use it. The white and wood add a little something so it is not an eye sore in my opinion. I live functionally more than design or magazine ready, although I would display this in a magazine as well. :)The legs curve outward and extend the base of this bench greatly. This increases the space it uses for storing, but feels like it is the reason why it is so stable. Although I have no other bench to compare to.I recomend 10/10.

There are were no screws to assemble the bench. A pop socket was included, but no screws.

Been doing headstands for a few minutes a day for about a month now, noticing big improvements in my posture and spinal flexibility! The bench itself is super sturdy, looks pretty good. If you really want it to last forever, using a towel between your neck and the leather might be worthwhile. The white leather is starting to wear just a touch around the neck. The padding is pretty thick. It might compress a bit iver time, but it is most your body weight so that seems mostly inevitable. Pretty easy to put together! I will never not have one of these again.

So much satisfaction, this has changed my life on many levels...and I have only been doing it for 3 days. I was intimidated at first because I never did a handstand in my 49 years but it is super easy.

The media could not be loaded.  From start to finish it took me about 25 minutes. I had trouble with one bolt or it would have been faster.This bench is AMAZING! I love headstands and as I approach my mid 40's, I need to be a little more careful with my body. This bench provides comfort, sturdiness and gives me a sense of peace that I won't break my neck lol!Totally worth the price!
