- TriggerPoint muscle rollers are designed with proprietary zones, made to replicate the feelings of a masseuse? hands. A foam roller from TriggerPoint feels just like a sports massage because the patented grid pattern on many of its models has a few different patterns.

Pros:
Being able to shop online gives you a virtually endless amount of products to browse. Many brands of foam roller exist solely online. This makes it difficult if you?e somebody who values being able to see and feel a product in person before purchasing. TriggerPoint is available at multiple mainstream sporting good stores, making it an easy product to track down if online shopping isn't for you.
Muscle rollers are increasingly popular, but also on the rise are heavy, sometimes intimidating massage guns. If you're having trouble deciding which you? rather try out, you don't need to choose. TriggerPoint has two models of vibrating foam roller in two different sizes and shapes depending on your needs. By combining the power of vibration with the patented multi-density foam surface of TriggerPoint? foam rollers, you get twice the results for a fraction of the price.
In each individual TriggerPoint foam roller's specs, Triggerpoint lists a weight limit. This is perhaps necessitated by the hollow plastic core at the center of many of their models. But this kind of information is often overlooking by sellers of sporting equipment who tend to picture their customer with a particular, slender, athletic body-type. But people of all shapes and sizes like to move, and it seems like a good consideration for TriggerPoint to include this information. It? also impressive, with some of their foam rollers able to withstand up to 500 lbs. Not bad for plastic and foam!
TriggerPoint muscle rollers come in a variety of lightweight, portable shapes and sizes. While a standard foam roller can be more than two feet long and unwieldy to carry with you to the gym or other public spaces, TriggerPoint offers multiple smaller options that would easily fit into your gym bag, making them a portable, convenient addition to your warmup or cool down.
Cons:
Although TriggerPoint's foam roller design seems to have been given a lot of consideration, there seems to be a one-week point. While most foam rollers are exactly that ·foam TriggerPoint's muscle rollers have hard, hollow cores, meant to make them firmer and more durable than the traditional roller. However, foam usually regains its shape after being overstressed·According to user reviews, the hard, hollow cores of TriggerPoint foam rollers tend to crack. TriggerPoint does offer a lifetime warranty in the event of such an issue, so it seems to be a fixable problem, but whether or not it? worth the hassle is up to you.
TriggerPoint's muscle rollers are, by and large, about the same price as comparable products on the market. However, if you're looking for something larger or more specialized, a foam roller from Trigger Point can get pricey fast. Their GRID 2.0 Foam Roller, which is about the size of a standard length foam roller, costs a whopping $59.99.
TriggerPoint muscle rollers all come with a lifetime warranty, and the ability to return your foam roller for a full refund within the first thirty days. The lifetime warranty, however, only offers a replacement product if something goes wrong with yours. So if you use a TriggerPoint foam roller long term and don? find yourself with the amazing results it promises, you're stuck with it.
If you?e looking to get a foam roller and you live outside of the United States, TriggerPoint is unfortunately not for you. TriggerPoint does not offer international shipping. It also does not cover the price of shipping for returns and exchanges, like many competitors.

How long does the product last?
TriggerPoint muscle rollers come with a 1-year manufacturer? guarantee. If your product is found to be defective within that time, you can exchange it for a replacement.
