Sports reviews of Foam Roller
Customer Review: Durability concerns
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
I gave this product 3 stars, as I feel it is okay overall. It worked excellently for about a month. After that the roller became a bit warped and some spots on it were a little more worn than others; there are softer spots on the roller. This was with use of about 10 minutes per day. I weigh 165 lbs, or 75 kg. Now, four months later, the roller appears to be in the same condition (it has not gotten noticeably worse).
I thought that I may appreciate having a cover for the roller, but I have not found it to be of much value. As well, I have found that having a 3 foot roller does not benefit me very much. I typically only use about half the length of the roller at a time. However, that does not mean that there are not some movements you would like to do that would be easier with a 3 foot roller. I think a 2 foot long roller would be fine for me.
All in all, the roller is decent. I am not sure that any purely foam roller will not get deformed after some use. However, given the price of this product, I would have liked it to stand up to a bit more use before showing the amount of wear that is has. I would not purchase it again. I suggest that if you are going to try out foam roller use for the first time, and you thus probably have some really tight spots to work on, you should borrow a friend's roller, or use one at a gym. After a while you could decide if you want to purchase your own foam roller, or perhaps a foam roller with a PVC core, which should be more durable, or pursue a homemade option.
