Not what I expected...it's better!
This seat cushion came free with the order of the mattress, but I'm waiting to open the mattress until my platform bed arrives (I dislike sleeping on a bare mattress directly on the floor like some crack head). So I of course wanted to experience the renowned comfort and pressure relief Purple has been touting, even if I couldn't experience the bed yet.<br /><br />I suffer from some kind of tailbone fracture that has been making it painful for me to sit longer than 5 minutes at a time, and if I over-sit my stay, my tailbone will continue to throb, making it painful to walk as well. I sat this cushion down on my office chair (where I depressingly spend most of my time) and gave it an honest try. My initial thoughts were disappointment:  &#34;This is so much hype for what? It doesn't feel like I'm sitting on anything.&#34; I was expecting a squishy feeling, or a sinking sensation, or a jelly-like hug that would encase my butt cheeks like jello. But no, it didn't feel like I was sitting on anything.<br /><br />And then five minutes later it dawned on me...it DOESN'T FEEL LIKE I'M SITTING ON ANYTHING!  I can feel the surface my butt is sitting on, but that's the extent of the sensation. No pain, no pressure, no nothing. It feels like I'm sitting on a regular chair, just minus the pain and discomfort. I definitely recommend the seat cushion. Stay tuned for my mattress review in a couple weeks when my bed arrives!
