According to my granddaughter, the model is great. She did a great deal of research before selecting this model.

The flexibility is not at all as how it is displayed in the first image, you can’t really necessarily bend this spine. However, everything is up to par with the standard models sold at schools and anywhere else. The other thing is that maybe the stand itself may not be too durable to hold the weight of the model, sooooo just be careful on not moving it too much or else the rod will literally feel like it’s going to break off or snap. The model itself is really lifelike and the same size as depicted. It’s a great model, just some discrepancies with the description. Honestly, for the price that I was going to pay for the same model at school, this one is worth it.

After only 3.5 years of use 5 days a week, 2-3 uses per day (3 spines in office) one in room number 1 totally falling apart. Wire cable at center of unit snaps after 200 or so bends during demonstrations. Years ago they use to use microphone stand type articulating cable. It would last decade. We need to find ones like that.

The best skeletal spine model I've seen out there. My remedial massage therapy school owns these as well.The flexibility/articulation is astonishing, the detail of the molds are impressive, and the price is well worth this quality.Only negative would be that you can see parts of where the mold material seep through the side of the mold cast. I simply cleaned this up by shaving off these tiny parts. Otherwise you wouldn't notice them at all, definitely the average person wouldn't notice them.

Overall decent product. Biggest downside with this product is how easy the spinal cord snaps after 2 months of light usage because of the cheap, hollow material. Anatomically correct, and great to use for studying spinal anatomy and understanding biomechanics of spinal movement (aside from the previously mentioned easily breakable spinal cord).

This was a great gift for my son in law who is studying to be a chiropractor.

The spine model broke after 4 months. The stand is poor and would often fall over. I had contacted the seller a few times (the Amazon warranty was over) seeking a replacement but no one has bothered to return our calls. Buy at your own risk.

This spine is good quality, is anatomically correct, and is able to hold a variety of flexed positions - each of which was important to me as I go through a doctoral level anatomy program. For the money, you won't find a better moveable spine. Would buy again without question!

I had to have spinal surgery so I used it to understand the options. However, it's become a household tool for understanding scoliosis and other spinal issues. At some point it will migrate to the office, if my family ever let's it go.

This is not super flexible, not flexible at all. Poorly built.
