Drive Medical 14894 Skin Protection Gel "E" Wheelchair Seat Cushion

Finally, a pillow that fits my chair. And it’s gel, so very comfy for long periods of chair-sitting. Plus- it’s portable,usable in other chairs, bleachers and other hard surface seating. Well made and worth the money.

Fit fine, comfortable good value.

This was just what I needed for long hours at my PC. The grey side grips my chair really well so it doesn't slide around. The gel inside makes it very comfortable and you can tell it will last a very long time just by the weight of it. It weighs almost 6 pounds! The cover is made well and has a good zipper on it so you can remove it for washing. I bought the 20"x16"x3" version and it is the perfect size for my chair. I would suggest you measure your chair and select the size accordingly.I was going to get the Forever Comfy cushion, but after seeing all the bad reviews about poor quality and how people got soaked on the price by having to pay double shipping whether they want 2 or not. I'm glad I got this one instead.

While this cushion is comfortable enough- I simply wouldn't recommend it for a full-time wheelchair user.If you use a chair for transporting, shopping trips or are looking for a cushion for sporting events then I would say this is a great bargain. If you are a full time wheelchair user then I would recommend saving up and shelling out the bigger bucks for a cushion with more support and structure.I don't bottom out completely in this cushion- but it's close. If you are heavy and are looking for a long term sitting solution then move on. If you want an addition to a dining chair, stool or couch then consider this one.I gave it four stars for the price, sturdy construction and weight. For my personal seating needs I would give it two stars, but would not put that against this cushion because I should have known better and just bought a more serious cushion for my chair.

Unless you've spent long periods of time in a wheelchair (I certainly have), you won't understand how practical these seat cushions are.I had received one (by another manufacturer) many years ago, as a gift. But it was finally at the end of its life. My local medical-supply vendor carried the Drive Medical cushion, but this Amazon merchant beat that price by about $50!The cushion is encased in a removable zipper bag for easy cleaning. The bag's top surface is dark blue nylon, and doesn't exhibit much friction; when you need to change position, you can easily slide along it. the bottom surface is rubbery and grips surfaces well, so the cushion will stay in place, even when you move around on it. The cushion is a good inch thicker than my previous version, and the gel cushioning is very responsive -- it compresses when you sit on it, but regains its original contours within moments after you vacate it.It's a relatively heavy item, so the attached fabric handle is a plus; rather than trying to get a grip on the cushion, you just grab the handle and hoist it up.Of course, the key consideration is comfort -- and this cushion excels. I've sat in my wheelchair for 4 or 5 hours at a clip, and experienced no discomfort whatever.

I got this cushion for my dad to use in his wheelchair and in regular arm chairs. It is great in the wheelchair. Super comfortable, very dense gel cushion which really distributes the weight well. The cushion itself is surprisingly heavy and has a handle loop on the side to help carry it. The bottom of the cushion has a slightly rubbery feel which helps it grip the chair and keeps it from shifting, while the blue top cover is more like a windbreaker material which is very slippery so it is easy for him to shift his weight. HOWEVER, when this cushion is in a regular chair, as he leans a bit over the table to eat, the cushion compresses so he starts to slide forward. For now, we will only be using this in his wheelchair - but it is a great cushion.

It doesn't compress fully and provides some support but it didn't help much with the sore pains I get from sitting too long. But the real issue is how slippery it is. Pool floats are less slippery. I have to grab the armrest on my seat prior to sitting down or risk of sliding onto the floor is highly likely for any chair with wheels. I had to use a folded blanket ontop to remedy the slip. Its a shame this is used for medical purposes as I fear this could harm the disabled and elderly sliding out their seats.

Personally, I don't think this seat cushion is needed, with the wheel chair, but my mom wanted it. As short as she is, it will boost her up a little, in the wheel chair. It's appears to be high quality and probably weighs about 5 lbs. I'm going to suggest my mom use it for other chairs, as well as the wheel chair, because I think it would make more sense using it elsewhere.
