What owners single out
In their words
“Great quality as always from TriggerPoint. I wasn't sure if this was going to be too firm, but it works just as well with light pressure as the standard one, and of course makes it easier to go deeper in the places it needs to. Highly recommend.”

“A very good quality roller which works best if you are used to softer ones before, otherwise probably too hard. The bumps are sometimes inconvenient, especially when used on the legs.”
