Standard Plus Size Ventilated Seat Cushion, Beige

No, it doesn't add support. No, it doesn't make the shape of the seat more comfortable. Think about it- you're sitting on a bunch of horizontal metal coil springs wrapped in paper and other non-soft material. So, if you're still reading, you're asking yourself "why did this guy give it five stars?" I'll tell you why- because it allows air flow. If butt sweat was the Joker, this device would be Batman. Nothing like being glued to a vinyl seat in summertime and this keeps you from getting stuck quite effectively and lets your a/c get under and behind you enough to keep you from being miserable. I get several years of use out of each one, this is a necessity for me at work. I use it year-round, it helps keep your rump thawed a little bit in winter as well by permitting warm air to circulate. It's not magic, but it beats the heck out of the discomfort of vinyl and I don't think it makes the shape of the seat any less comfortable. I wouldn't recommend using it on cloth seats because they're already breathable.

I use this in my wheelchair actually. It allows airflow so that I dont feel so hot and dont perspire so much. It also adds to the comfort of sitting in same position for long hours. It works great for me. Not one complaint! I might buy another for my other “nesting places”. Very sturdy and well made!

What I like about this cushion is that it provides cooling relief when used on my forklift. What I didn’t like is that it fell apart too soon (after a month) of use. It is not meant for a delivery person or a forklift driver who has to get in & out of their seat several times during the day. It would be more ideal for long duration of sitting time. It provided circulation & prevented ‘diaper rash’ for me so it was worth the price & I will have to make another purchase when each one wears out.

Love these, wish they didn't discontinue them.

Three stars - Works for ventilation as expected - I've gone through others over the past years picked up in auto parts stores but no one sells them anymore in stores that I could find - so of course I turned to Amazon. Why only three stars? I have a large SUV that comes with your typical pick-up/large SUV seats. Hasn't been a problem in the past, but the elastic straps on the back of this cushion are way too small/short - and, yes, there are two straps. I had to stretch them to their absolute limit to get them over the back of the seat. They are so short that the straps are deforming the back of my seat's leather to the point I may have to cut them off and have my wife replace them with longer straps (she's a seamstress so should be able to make that happen). However, these definitely only barely - and I'll stress the term 'barely' - fit a large car/truck seat - to the point that I'm expecting the straps to rip out in the near-term if I keep them in place. I suppose this could be a one-off aberration for this particular cushion I ended up with, but still an issue for me. And this is supposed to be the Standard Plus size seat cushion. So if you have a smaller car or smaller seat, then this should work well for you. If you have larger sized seats - car, truck or pick-up - then I'd suggest you find someone who can sew to replace the elastic straps. Or find something else......

I bought this for my friend who is in a wheelchair during the most part of his waking hours & this cushion is exactly what he wanted as it provides him with comfort he needed as well as ventilation that other cushions don’t. Additionally his back gets more support for his back he needed. The product is this far showing a good durability, is easily washable & dries immediately for continued use. I’d heartily recommend this cushion who’s looking for maximum for their money, but mostly for good comfort.

This is the kind that actually keeps my back from overheating. It is so good, I'm thinking of ordering more in case they stop selling it. Used to be able to find them in the stores. Now online only. Thank you for this fantastic product! Note: I had in my mind to buy a 3rd one, but couldn't remember why. It was for sitting on the couch. My back is very sensative to overheating. I'll be ordering another one. Then I'll have one for each car and the couch. I'm a very happy customer!

This ventilation seat cushion fit my old Chevy pick up bench style seat perfectly. With no A/C and with both floor vents open, I can feel the air circulate around my back as soon as I am doing about 20 mph. I don't feel the air under me but when I get out I no longer feel the dampness from perspiration in my pants. It also gives better seat support (I think because it spreads out the contact area onto the seat springs below) as well. You will notice the seat belt is in a different location also. I am a few inches over six foot tall and weigh about 225 so I don't know what the weigh will do to this cushion. I did not mark down anything in the "Durability" rating as they are new but as far as I can tell they are very well made and I hope they last a long time. I will return in about one year and give an update. It's now 11/17/20. NOTE: I am not sure how well they will fit in a small cars bucket style seat due to the fact it is made out of wire spring steel with larger boarder wires used as a frame. It is covered with the plastic mesh colored covering and is about 5/8 inch think when new. REVIEW UPDATE: It is now 5/30/22. I changed my rating from a 5 star to a 3 star. The seat cover does not last long at all, a year if you're lucky and don't use it often. The paper material used on the back side completely disintegrates in a years time (basically turns to a powder). I used about 20 small "ZIP TIES" all around the outer edges to attach the inner metal spring coil to the plastic outer cover material. It still allows air to circulate around and under you while you drive but getting in the vehicle you have raise yourself up and straighten it under you before you put your seat belt on. Seems like a very easy solution would be for the company to use the same plastic material on both sides of the cushion. The plastic side is still good today. If they used the same material on the back as they use on the front this seat cover would still be in fairly good condition after two years use. Simple fix, I don't know why they wouldn't do it. REVIEW#2 Well, I with they could sell the inner springs only. I think I could do better on the outer covers at the local Goodwill store. Years ago they would last so long the inner spring would break and the wire would poke you. That's when you new it was time for a new one. The inner metal springs are still like new on the two I have but the outer covers have disappeared (disintegrated). Had to vacuum out the pieces, couldn't even pick them up with my fingers including the one never used on the passenger side. I lay a towel over them now and I think they still let air circulate under me and around my back as I'm driving. I can't honestly recommend someone purchasing these until they change the outer cover material to something like what is used in beach chairs. I changed my rating to a 1 Star.
