I find the NeckUp secures the guitar well so it does not shift around on you and since it is adjustable, it can accommodate small to large bodied guitars. I typically use one on guitars with lower bouts that range from 00 widths to GA or dreadnaught widths.

I recently went out of town and found the NeckUp I keep in my Rainsong’s case was missing. I found a music store with a cheap footstool but it made me realize how much better the NeckUp works for me. The big advantage is keeping a straight back with both both feet flat on the floor. I get lower back pain and sometimes numbness with crossed legs or a footstool, never with the NeckUp.
