Drive Medical14888 Skin Protection Gel "E" Wheelchair Seat Cushion, 18 x 16 x 2 Inch

I am very thin, and the cushion so very helpful. The gel bladder shifts and moves as needed. It does have some weight as it has liquid like gel. It might be 5 ish pounds. It has a handle. It was a life saver on a flight with hard seats. A doctors note may be needed to bring one on a plane. Worth it.

My husband has a fold down shower seat which the padded top had deteriorated on and the manufacturer had no replacement for. Once I discovered that the top could be removed I purchased this pad as it was listed as waterproof. And it has proved perfect. My husband finds the seat very comfortable, although a bit slippy, so we've adjusted to shower seat to be raised slightly higher in the front than the rear. If you have a similar seating situation I recommend this item. It has worked extremely well for us.

I have a problem with my sciatic and piriformis and suffer from fibromyalgia. If I sit on a hard surface for 5 minutes, I get pain and numbness in my glutes and down the right leg so I end up squirming as I drive. I bought this for a car seat, which is too hard (they are all too hard in new cars). I have tried other cushions and I think this one is great. It's got the right ingredients of size and thickness and is not too firm or too soft. The 2 inch thickness is great. I'll use it for a week and write an update. It's a heavy cushion (3 lbs or so), so it does not move around on the car seat. It's very resilient and has the right amount of cushioning. I am 160 lbs male and this works very well so far for me. It does raise you up by 2 inches but I just lower the car seat all the way down and it's fine. I am only 5 foot 7 though. The gel is hidden deep inside the foam cushion and there's a sturdy cover and a handle built in. You should definitely give this one a try. I like the size, 18x16. I actually wish it was even a little bigger. I hid the cushion under a seat cover so the seat looks good. I may get one for the passenger side because my sister also has pain when she sits and the price is good.

The price was good and the 2” cushion is good for my Mom’s hemi height wheelchair. It allows her to utilize her legs effectively. Cleans up easily and has retained shape.

Exactly like shown on the web site. And perfect size for every sitting area &/plus very comfortable. Also, after a couple of questions, the customer service is very good.
