Standard Plus Size Ventilated Seat Cushion, Beige

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.

Although they are well made, I need a new one very third year.

I commute to work about 104 miles round trip each day in my 2016 RAV4. I live in the mid-atlantic region, where we don't have extreme weather like in the Northeast or in the Southwest, but still, it gets down to the 20s in the winter and to the 90s in the summer. This type of cushion is the best that I have found in terms of keeping comfortable, allowing air flow underneath you. This particular cushion has metal springs inside like the old fashioned ones from the 1960s, but I have used the ones with the plastic grid inside and they work just as well. I go through one of these about every two years. Eventually, the springs pop through the cheap fabric. In the case of the springs, I worry about them piercing my vinyl upholstery (what Toyota calls "SofTex"), so once the springs pop through, I replace it. Overall, I'm happy with this type of cushion - comfortable, not very expensive to replace once it gets worn through.

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.

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......

Product is of good quality.

Keeps me from sweating on the seat inhot, humid Florida summers. It isn't pretty, but it gets the job done. Standard size might not work for a very large person. Needs replaced every year or two. These could be made better, but so far it's the best thing I've found to reduce back sweat in the hot Florida summer. Yes, I have ice cold A/C, but the temp in the car might be 140 degrees or more when you first get in!

While it falls short of a fitted seat cover, never mind having the seat made for comfort in the first place, this is a big improvement over a black vinyl lawn mower or tractor seat when coping with heat, humidity, and sun. Greatly reduces sweat buildup, and keeps the seat from getting scorchingly hot when left vacant in the sun for a few minutes.I like it well enough to order a second one, so I won't need to move the first one back and forth between mower and tractor.Best guess is that they'll last one summer before the elastic straps lose their snap, but at this price I'm not going to quibble too much.
