However, this design is much smaller and easier to carry and stow than other designs with a stiff footrest.

I purchased Version 2 at full price to replace a Sleepy Ride footrest with similar design (which had a firm and narrower footrest) and feel the padded soft footrest of this product is much more comfortable and versatile

I love this footrest

This adjustable footrest helped alleviate the back strain I get on long flights
