Good value for all three sizes
This three pack is a good deal for the money. You need to start on the large wheel and work your way down- at least I did! They are wide enough to be sturdy. I received them in a timely manner.

Not a great value.
Okay so I wasn't expecting miracles, but I'm a little disappointed. They are super strong, and have held their shape. I bought them to help my boyfriend with his terrible back problems and they don't do much in the way of helping him stretch and realign. I've used them myself as well with minimal success in relieving back pain, which was what they were marketed for. For the price, these don't really seem worth the money. Spend it on a chiropractor.

Maybe not for everyone, but if it is for you then it will be a life saver
I have had fibromyalgia and chronic back pain for years now. I haven't ever really found much that helped other than an alternating schedule of massage and chiropractics. The only issue is that even though I am only paying my co pay to do those things, it still adds up big time and is one of the first things I cut back on when money is tight. As a result, I have spent many late night hours, searching the internet for something to help my pain, and I have tried a good amount of solutions that either don't help at all or only help for a short time. So when I got the Plexus wheels, I was super excited because most of the reviews were pretty good.If you suffer from constant pain, but are used to having to put yourself in more pain temporarily (like with deep massage for me) in order to feel any relief, then this will be perfect for you. After watching my husband try and fail to use it, I concluded that you have to be used to subjecting yourself to pain in order to allow yourself to sufficiently relax your back muscles on the wheel. Only when you can relax and breathe, does your back really start getting those good cracks.I find that if I use the wheel consistently I do not have as much overall pain as I used to, however you should take care not to spend too much time on it. Some people might be okay with laying on the wheel for a while, but I have found if I do it for too long, I end up more sore. I usually start with the biggest wheel, and work my way down and use the smallest wheel mostly between my shoulder blades.I had seen some reviews talking about the padding on the wheels not being great, so I'll address that too. It does seem to pretty much be a thick yoga mat wrapped around the wheel, and the seam is not flush, but I don't really find this to be an issue when using it. I think it is still enough padding to be nice to my back, and the fact that the edges are not perfectly aligned don't hurt its function at all for me.Overall, I would say if you are like the many people writing these reviews, and myself, and suffer from constant back pain, it is worth a shot whether it ends up working personally for you or not. I would say to give this a fair shot at working for you, give it a week of doing it a couple times a day and getting used to it, then go a few days without using it at all and see if you feel stiff. If you feel worse after not using it, then go back to using it and be happy, and if not then return it and get a refund. You have nothing to lose!

Quit thinking and just purchase.
Over a year ago I was in a car accident, leaving me going to the chiropractor every few days in excruciating pain, not able to work or function really at all. When I bought these I figured if it doesn’t work, I’ll send it back. But I find myself using the biggest one every single day, several times a day. My husband (who has needed to see a chiropractor for years but never has) also loves it and uses it regularly for back pain. We LOVE this! If you have been wanting to try it out, stop thinking and get one! This was the best purchase of the year! This has saved us so much money on chiropractic care.

Three Stars
Good for stretching the back or loosening tight thigh muscles but would not want to give up my chiropractor.

Unbelievably effective!
These came via ups today. I couldn't wait for my husband to try them out. Due to a neck fusion and two discectomies he has chronic back pain. He got relief in his low back and hips immediately from the large wheel. The small wheel he has to use against a wall instead of on the floor, but he said it helped with the tension he carries between his shoulder blades. I tried them myself and I was amazed by the relief I got as well. I would recommend these for anyone suffering with chronic back pain.

oh this is great, my husband actually got it for me and ...
oh this is great, my husband actually got it for me and I really didn't think it would do much, oh was I wrong, this wheel are amazing, they do help with your back, at first you have to start slow and work your way up. I thought I wouldn't be able to stretch my back and now i'm able to use the largest one. You do get a great ab work out.
