Product Information

Full details

The Putnams T-Roll Positioning Aid Cushion is a specialized support solution ideal for individuals with spinal cord injuries, multiple sclerosis, or anyone requiring stable postural alignment while resting in a supine position. Its unique T-shaped design effectively maintains knee elevation and prevents unwanted rolling during sleep or relaxation; however, potential users should note that the firm foam core requires an adjustment period to ensure it aligns correctly with individual body anatomy.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the cushion suitable for side sleeping?

The T-Roll is specifically designed for supine (back-lying) positioning to aid with knee elevation and alignment.

Can I put the foam core in the washing machine?

No, the foam core should never be machine washed. Only the removable cover is machine washable.

What is the primary material inside the cushion?

The cushion uses a high-density, firm foam core designed for long-term durability and support.

Does the navy cover protect against incontinence?

Yes, the cover is waterproof and designed to protect the internal foam from moisture, including sweat and accidental spills.

What are the exact dimensions?

The cushion has a diameter of 8 inches, a width of 27.5 inches, and a height of 16 inches.

Can this be used by children?

While it is a postural aid, it is primarily designed for adult support; consult with a medical professional if you are considering it for a child.

Troubleshooting

Cover feels stiff or noisy

The waterproof nature of the fabric can cause slight noise initially; placing a soft sheet or thin pillowcase over the cushion can muffle sound and improve skin comfort.

Cushion shifts during the night

Ensure the cushion is placed far enough back against the weight of the legs; using a fitted sheet to secure the cushion against the mattress can also help minimize movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides excellent stability to prevent unintended rolling in bed
  • Waterproof cover protects the inner foam from damage
  • Removable, washable cover ensures long-term hygiene
  • Firm support is ideal for postural alignment and rehabilitation needs
  • Durable foam construction maintains shape after frequent use

Cons

  • Firm texture may take time for some users to find comfortable
  • Fixed dimensions might not suit all body types equally
  • Relatively large footprint may require adequate bed space

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup is straightforward: simply place the cushion horizontally on the bed or surface and position it so that the central T-section provides the desired lift under the knees. Ensure the cushion is placed on a flat, stable surface to maximize its stabilizing effects. For care, keep the waterproof cover zipped to ensure the foam remains protected. If the cover becomes soiled, unzip it and machine wash according to the label instructions. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the cover to preserve the waterproof coating. The foam core itself should not be submerged in water; if it becomes dirty, spot clean only with a damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely.
