Mindful Modern Folding Meditation Bench - Bamboo Kneeling Stool w/Locking Magnetic Hinges - Prayer Kneeler Seiza Chair w/Soft Pillow & Travel Bag

All around first class meditation bench. I tried four other meditation benches by 4 different manufacturers and this one won on all levels hands down.

Love the lovely design which is very stable for me (I'm 1.59m tall and weigh 59 kg). The travel bag is very compact.

I purchased this last year and love it! I am 5'9" medium build and this is perfect for me. I use a small flat pillow for my knees but this takes the pressure off of my knees by resting most of my weight upon the bench. I first kneel with the bench behind my feet and then pull it up. It takes the pressure off of my knees perfectly. I think if you're feet are 10's or higher, you would have to lift it up over feet to position it over your calves. Recommend they have a larger model if you are in that situation. I did make one modification. On the bottom side of the legs, it's finished wood, which allows it to gradually slip backwards if you are on a carpeted surface. I purchased some anti slip tape and attached it to the bottom of the legs and works perfectly. I paid $5. Very sturdy and good value and in terms of your height, it you are a larger frame this may not work as well.

The bench is great, very comfortable and stable. The carry bag is useless. The zipper is defective, and it seems to be designed that way??!! I suppose if you are a weight lifter you might be able to get the zipper pull to move, but I could not. I had to undo a seam to get the bench out. I might replace the zipper some day, meanwhile I'll just use the bench without the bag.
