Outstanding Quality
Most of us hope we don't need something like this but then our physical therapists tell us that we do.When looking for a slant board I saw a wide variety of options but many of them were pretty cheesy. If I were only going to use it a few times before giving up then cheesy might work fine. If I expect to use the slant board on a regular basis, then cheesy was never going to cut it.This is a hefty and sturdy piece of equipment that will no doubt handle my 250 lb mass I expect to put on it. I’m given several adjustments for the angle which makes things even better.I know I seem fixated on the quality of this slant board but I have to advise customers that when they look at other slant boards being offered, ask yourself if you think this might be the board that you can pass down to future generations of your family because this one certainly is.

Almost perfect, serves my needs very well
It's almost perfect. Love that I can adjust to multiple angles. I do wish that it were more like a ramp instead of just dropping off in the front, because I do have an exercise (stretch) that is performed with the foot half on & half off the board. So a smoother drop off like a ramp is better. But I can manage with this board.It is HUGE as other reviewers have stated. Fortunately, I have the space to leave it out at all times. So it's not a hardship. I don't think it's better than the one in my PTs office but it is the closest I could find. Almost every slant board is similar in price but this has the most variability. Definitely worth the money if you suffer from any foot or ankle problems and need the extra help with stretching!

Love this product.
This was used in my physical therapy sessions and I asked the therapist how much it cost because I wanted one at home. He suggested it was very expensive. I was so pleased to find a very affordable one and it is exactly like the therapy center uses. It has been able to give me a stretch that I was not able to achieve on my own with the various techniques physicians suggested. I like the variety of heights because I am the type of patient who takes 1 step forward and sometimes 2 steps back and it sometimes varies because of some other health issues that do not allow me to progress like a normal individual. I love it. It has been a lifesaver. It folds down completely and I put it back into the accompanying bag to try to prevent as much dog hair as I possibly can on the unit (I have a big dog that loves to shed). I HIGHLY endorse this.

The Fitaboo is sturdy and will support over 200 lbs
The Fitaboo is sturdy and will support over 200 lbs. I was disappointed that the wood was "raw" - unfinished, and that the slots for the boards didn't have grooves in them to keep the board from slipping out. The board has never "slipped" on me, but for safety, I would prefer this built in feature to prevent any slippage, especially on the upper levels. The board comes in a nice carrying case.

One of my better purchases.
Love the slant board. It is heavy duty and it is sturdy. I try to use it at least three times a day for about 25 seconds each session. When my back is stiff and sore, I also step on the board and get off relieved. It is amazing. I had a hip operation less than a year ago and, even though I go to a personal trainer three times a week, my hip and calves tightened up. Since I have the board, I feel SO much better.

If you're hesitating, DON'T! Your calves and feet will thank you!
This is amazing! I rarely write reviews and certainly not within an hour and a half after receiving. However, this is definitely an exception. I've had ongoing issues with both feet for the last six months which began with right heel pain. Being on my feet for work for 7-9 hours a day and because I over compensated with my left foot, I fractured the left and ended up in a boot with continuing pain in the right foot. I started physical therapy five weeks ago and my left foot began to recover but not my right. When I addressed this with my PT he had me walk barefoot and put me on a similar slant board but with my feet turned in. This was the key to my recovery and Tuesday I was released from PT. I asked for a recommendation and this was the one suggested because of the varying degrees of angles. The last few days I have had a lot of pain in the right heel so as soon as this arrived, I opened it, read the instructions and stepped up on it. Ahhhhhh, is all I can say! I've been sedentary because of the pain for a long time and this literally made me feel so well stretched that I walked up a steep hill just to move!! So happy this has arrived because it makes all the difference in the world for me!

Started out great, but now it's worthless
I purchased this in October and loved it for the first few weeks. I had a foot issue and this board really helped. However, since then the board won't stay up for long when I put weight on it. The wooden inserts that slot into the holes slip out easily on the top two inclines. So it's pretty much worthless after only 4 or 5 weeks of use. Massive disappointment given how much it is.

Great quality for a great price
I've had this over a year. Quality is great, very durable, couldn't be happier. I had looked for a while before purchasing this for stretching. Other models were pricier. This one is almost exactly like the one in my gym, and reasonable priced.
