Mosaic Seat Cushion 18” x 16” Inflatable Air Cell Design, Adjustable Firmness, Non-Skid Cover, Lightweight Portable Cushion for Wheelchair, Office Chair, Car & Home

This is the end second day of using this. I've tried about every type of cushion that is made now that I have this air cushion. So far, so good. I liked it when I first sat on it. I've not been able to sit on anything other than some type of cushion since I was injured last month. I'm naturally very slender at 5'3" and I weigh 102 pounds. I've always been small. I've never been able to sit for long without discomfort. After being injured the pain in my back, rear end, thighs has been unbearable when I tried to sit down. The pain was even worse when I got up and it stayed with me, so I felt even worse than if I'd just stood up all of the time. I had to find an excellent mattress topper and get body pillows so I could even lay down too. This cushion is beautifully made. It comes with a very easy to use pump too! I was happy to have that. It has a beautiful cover which prevents it from slipping in any chair. I can walk short distances but when I go out I have to use a wheel chair, I haven't tried it in that yet, just in my computer and other chairs. There are patches included in case there might ever be a leak enclosed with the direction booklet. This is what the doctor at physical rehabilitation recommended for me to try. This cushion is much easier to use and carry than the water/gel cushion that I purchased. He recommended the water/gel cushion also. I wanted this for air only so I was not messing around with trying gel or water with the other cushion. That is in my reviews. After reading the directions, ( which I should have done before blowing it up with the pump ) I measured with my finger from the lowest bone of my rear to the bottom of the cushion to adjust the amount of air to the correct depth it recommends, (1/2 to 1 inch of space filled with air at the lowest bone of your rear end) when you are sitting. I had to let air out after doing that, I'd filled it too full. Since I've done that it's really been very comfortable, which is a shock to me since I've only found one other than this that I can sit on, where I'm not in pain. I don't feel any pain when sitting on this, or when I get up as I did with using a memory foam cushion, the pain was awful. I don't feel it needs a tailbone cut out since my tailbone is not being pressed or compressed by the cushion since I adjusted the air to the right level. I can also sit on comfortably water/gel cushion I bought here on Amazon. I hope this is not too long, and that some of my observations might be of help to someone else. Thank You

I am a caregiver. I got this product 2 mos ago for an elderly woman age 90+. It was recommended by her physical therapist who came to show us core strengthening routines she can still handle for her age. Given she sits long on her wheelchair when feeding and doing her daily bathroom hygiene, I find this product provided the best value despite the price. Of course I’ve used all types of low cost, from large retailers or here in Amazon, cushions that flattens and gels that leaks. 15 yrs of caregiving told me nothing lasts a lifetime. This are comfort aids that gets abused from getting soiled, weight and wear. Just like a normal pillow we use for sleeping, they all need to be replaced after a period of time. Rojo is easy to inflate. You need to follow directions and handle with care. Don’t over inflate. Try to slowly press it down with your fist and shouldn’t have so much resistance as your fist sinks to the bottom. It should have some play for the air and pockets to move when you’re sitting down on it. This rojo cushion is almost like the auto-inflate mattresses given to elder or bed-ridden individuals to help avoid decubitus or skin pressure sores except this is designed for wheelchairs. It helps with the users blood circulation after sitting for prolonged periods. Of course, rojo is an aid, not a cure for pressure sores etc. Excellent nutrition is still key to help health issue. Pick the right size. Measure your wheelchair seat and purchase the exact measurements for the rojo. If the user is sliding like I’ve read in another review before I purchased this, I would probably secure my elderly using a gait belt for safety while sitting down or transferring. Sanitizing is easy too. You can spray with alcohol or wipe down with sanitizing wipes. The material is sturdy and let it air-dry especially disinfectant wipes are strong for the skin. I also don’t put cloth over it. I like the idea that air circulates between those air pockets and the only barrier is the clothing. My retired friends tried it when I showed it to them. They also purchased it for air-travel. They have back and sciatica issues. Somehow it worked for them too. I also highly recommend this product even for office use. I told my adult kids to buy not sure if they did haha. No one thinks of their back and bottoms until they start experiencing pain. We use our backs and bottoms so much we need to take care of it and maintain good habits while we’re still young. I give this product a 4-star for now since I only got it a few months ago.

This was a nurse recommended purchase but was a complete disappointment. The cushion came deflated and folded in half and was so difficult to inflate with the provided cheap device that we decided it just needed to be returned. Within 30 minutes of taking it from the box, I placed it and the accompanying items and pamphlets back in the original box and the cushion was never even inflated let alone used! When I accessed my account and attempted to start the return process I discovered it was not returnable. An $89.90 item that was never inflated or had never come in contact with any seating surface could not be returned. It was not stated the item was not returnable until you had already proceeded to checkout and I didn’t notice that and went ahead and ordered it. That seems an unnecessary restriction for an item that was only taken from the box for inspection and never used. And BTW, Amazon lists a “used” option to the right of the listed “new” price! Wonder how and where they get the used cushions if these cushions are not returnable!?! If you decide to order this expensive cushion, be aware that it isn’t all it’s recommended to be, very poor quality and highly overpriced. A very expensive purchase mistake headed for the donation box or trash!

Product came on time. I had trouble getting the air to stay in the chamber. I thought I was going to have to send it back. After setting it aside for a day or two I tried it again, and presto, it worked. Mom seems to be more comfy.

You can’t go wrong with anything that has the roho brand on it. I have bought two of these so far to put in two locations. These hold up well.

Whoever designed this has my heartfelt gratitude. I had "tried them all." And then, the Roho. Long plane trips? Sitting for extended periods of time? - No pain, not even stiffness. And this from someone with a history of back pain and a ruptured disk. I am sitting on it right now. I use it when working on the computer and even at the dinner table. I take it on long car trips. It works. In addition to feeling very comfortable, it somehow does actually stabilize your bottom and hips, and in a dynamic way. By that I mean, you are not locked into one, static, correct position. As you move, the air flows from one interlocking air pocket into the next. Feels kind of like a slow-moving wave. So it supports, cajoles and cradles. The Roho is more an orthopedic device than a cushion. The only potential downside is that it is inflatable. Since I have never used or heard of an inflatable pillow, cushion or mattress that does not at some point leak, I generally have little faith in them. That said, some features of the Roho may mitigate this risk. One is that you do not inflate it to full capacity. How much depends on your size, weight and preference. The air also moves from one compartment to another. So sitting on it does not seem to place sudden or maximum pressure on any one area. It is also encased in a well-made covering, which supports and protects the interior. No problems yet, and it sits on a chair in the kitchen by a computer used by many people, weighing from the low to the upper 100's. Price? It is expensive, but in this case, you really do get what you pay for. If they lowered the price, I would buy several more.

I have tried sooooo many cushions in the past, this is the BEST one I have used. I bought another one for travel. Helps relieve spine issues.

I wound up with two of the ROHO cushions (Roho Mosaic Cushion, 18" x 16" Inflatable Seat Cushion Amazon/ASIN #B002BUNKAY $84.85) for an elderly relative. The air filling valve on both of them leaked badly from the start, from the valve body itself and/or from the joint where the valve is inserted into the receiving sleeve of the cushion mat. That OEM valve appears to be a twist-type plastic needle valve that may be unique to ROHO as I have been unable to locate an aftermarket in-kind replacement, the ROHO site wants about $30 for this small plastic item. I had removed and attempted to analyze the OEM valve, I did not attempt any disassembly as it appears to not be designed for that purpose and may be damaged in the attempt. On only one valve was I able to stop the leak using what I thought to be excessive twist torque, but not entirely, it would lose air over a few days. I replaced the OEM plastic valve with the shortest Shrader valve (commonly called a bicycle valve or tire valve) that I could find, along with a hose-barb connector for insertion into the ROHO cushion. This solution works very well and for both cushions I spent less than $13, using some components I already had, and not including $10 for the small hand pump. I have attached photos. These are the parts I used, all available on Amazon: -Shrader valve, short, Milton S-684 1/8" NPT Tank Valve - Pack of 2 Amazon/ASIN #B0002SQYTQ $7.80 -Female barbed connector, 2PCS Brass Hose Fittings 1/8" NPT Female to 1/4" Barb Adapter for Air Fuel Oil Line by CX WONDERLAND Amazon/ASIN #B0G39YYP23 $4.89 -Length of electrical heat-shrink, 0.3" or 7.5mm -Teflon plumbing seal tape On the heat-shrink tubing close is good enough but go slightly oversize if needed, you can shrink it with a hair dryer if the fit is not tight. I did not need to shrink the piece I used, it was a very tight fit. You will need scissors, possibly a knife for trimming, and two small wrenches, 7/16" and 1/2", or adjustable (Crescent-style) wrenches to tighten the Shrader valve into the barb fitting. Pliers can be used in a pinch but I don't recommend them. TIPS: -The heat-shrink tubing is optional. Lightly sand the barbs of the connector, the barbs are sharp and will make it impossible to remove the connector if needed if you skip the heat-shrink tubing. The heat shrink tubing also makes the valve easier to remove if needed, but of course you can unscrew the Shrader valve body. I also helps provide an airtight seal although the barbed connector should do that on its own. If you choose to use the heat-shrink tubing you should not cut it to a short length first, the added length helps place the tubing over the barbs. Use a press & twist motion after lightly moistening the barb connector. Once the tubing is in place, trim the excess. I also lightly sanded the trimmed edge to a chamfer so that it would more easily insert into the pad tube. I did not apply heat to shrink the tubing I used. -Be sure to use the plumber's Teflon tape for the valve-to-barb connection. It will be wider than the base of the valve body and may block it when inserted into the pad, so be sure to trim the excess or fold it back so the base of the valve body is not covered. -I purchased a small inexpensive hand-held bicycle air pump so I would not have to lug a full-size one around to fill the cushion. DO NOT use an air compressor or commercial air filling station, they will very quickly overpressurize and overfill the pad and possibly burst it. A hand pump is perfect. That is (Optio Cycle) Mini Bike Pump 120 PSI Amazon/ASIN #B089N3S2NQ $9.99 -Test the pad by placing several books on it (before replacing in the cloth cover) and wait a few days to see if it leaks. You can also do a 'water' test by placing the valve part of the cushion in a small tub of water and look for bubbles. The cap on the Shrader valve does not have to be very tight, it is not designed to hold in air, it merely protects the valve itself from grit and dirt that can otherwise get into the valve body. The actual valve is removable with a small tool, available at any bicycle shop or on Amazon, and replaced as well, although that is nearly never needed unless you are racing the Tour de France. The new valve assembly fits quite well into the cushion cover. -Not all ROHO cushions can apparently use this fix as some appear to have integral valves. Photos: -Showing the original valve in place in the cushion pad -Showing the OEM valve removed from the pad. I had tried to solve the original leak with a bit of heat-shrink tubing over the insertion end, that solved the insertion leak but not the valve body leak. -These are the components I used to build the replacement valve. See the notes for descriptions and Amazon part numbers. -This is the completed valve replacement next to the original valve. -This is the new valve assembly with the small hand air pump I also obtained. -This is the replacement valve in place in the ROHO pad.

Works respally well.

There is a manufacturing defect, and the seller does not accept a return or refund. The seller guarantees you for a short period not exceeding a month and does not accept a return. I have had the same type for 10 years or more and nothing like what happened to this product has happened to it. There is an air leakage vent, which is a manufacturing defect.

Visiblement ROHO à été racheté (groupe Permobil) et cela se ressent: en comparaison avec mon ancien coussin, la qualité des matériaux est en nette régression: beaucoup plus fins et beaucoup plus fragiles. Ce modèle n'est pas cher, mais le rapport qualité prix est tout juste acceptable, pour ne pas dire médiocre. Je verrais bien combien de temps ce coussin va tenir, mais probablement bien moins longtemps que son ancêtre…

My husband had an operation and has been in terrible pain whilst sitting and lying. This product was true to description and has assisted in spreading his weight and easing his pain.

I bought this for my husband upon his Dr's recommendation. He is not in a wheelchair however due to his age, arthritis and unstablity he sits and sleeps in an easy chair most of the time. He developed a sore on his butt that would not go away in spite of everything he tried until he got this seat pad. Within 2 days the sore was gone. He was so amazed and relieved that he could sit in comfort once again. It is portable so it can be used in a vehicle or motel room. I don't feel like one needs to purchase a very expensive one to gain relief and comfort. I recommend this product.
