This model of a vertebral column and disc is quite amazing. The material it is made out of it high quality and feels very durable. I feel as if this is a great model to show how a vertebral disc may herniate under great pressure and intrude on the spinal nerves. The strings around the part the squishes out is also very durable, making me think it will last a long time even with use. Overall this is a great teaching model!

I got this for my high school classroom. I like the large visual of the vertebra. It's neat to be able to see the bulging disc as well. A great educational piece to add to my classroom collection.

I am a physical therapy student and got this model when we were learning about the lumbar spine and the intervertebral disc. I'm a visual learner and was able to visualize what a bulging disc looks like much more clearly and how it puts pressure on nerves using this model. When you press down on the anterior portion of the vertebral body, the fluid in the model will create a bubble, resembling a bulge that presses directly on the nerves passing through the interforaminal space.The quality is sturdy and the lumbar vertebra are pretty accurate in how they look, allowing you to sidebend and rotate slightly to visualize arthrokinematics a bit more closely as well. All in all, I will be holding on to this to educate my future patients on their lumbar spine and disc issues as this model is great! I have noticed however that after repetitive presses to create the bulge, the red casing of the disc looks like it's thinning a bit but have not had any issues of tearing.

This anatomical lumbar disc herniation model is well-made and serves its purpose as an educational tool. The vertebrae are crafted from durable PVC, and the intervertebral disc and nerve root are a flexible, rubber-like material, making it great for demonstrating disc herniation mechanics.As someone who bought this for creepy home decor rather than education, I found it slightly underwhelming in terms of realism. The PVC vertebrae are a bit too stark white, and the intervertebral disc is held in place by a string netting that looks somewhat messy. Loose ends will need to be trimmed for a cleaner appearance.If you’re looking for a useful, oversized anatomical model for teaching or study, this is a great choice. But if you're hoping for a realistic, macabre display piece, you may need to modify it or look elsewhere.
