    Listened to the webinar today. They are offering a 20% discount for the next month.

    For the discount, and because it has a 90 day return policy (unused of course), I bought one. I'd rather support my local vendor, but they couldn't match the pricing. I'm in the left seat often, but in the right seat even more.

    I have one. Better than no Hans type device. My only complaint is more limited range of motion relative to an actual Hans.

    It annoys me that it costs 3x what regular head and neck restraints go for

    Cost: yes, it is expensive. For this price, they should have included bag.

    Comfort: It is comfy, but as Christian indicates, a little limiting in head movement more than the Hans II.

    The only issue I have, which is superficial, when working with new students first time out, or arrive and drive students in a few laps around with an unknown car, it looks intimidating. But maybe that will slow them down. Typically, I have to tell the arrive and drive people to keep on the gas and don't brake.
