Laravel 5. Saving to database returns error

Question

Here is my simple Controller:

public function addProduct(Request $request)
{
    $product = new Product;    
    $product->product_name = $request->product;    

    return $product->save();    
    return back();
}

When it is processed product_name is saved to products table, but I receive the following error as well:

UnexpectedValueException in Response.php line 393: The Response content must be a string or object implementing __toString(), "boolean" given.

change return $product->save(); to $product->save();

Why do you try to return value of $product->save(); call? If you want to save entry and return back then simply

$product->save();
return back();
