Eh, Not As Revolutionary As I Was Led to Believe
Purple comes up quite often when you look at ways to support the body, from bedding to cushions, you can usually see them come up when you are looking for relief. Having a chair with a pretty terribly designed seat pan, I wanted a way extend the use of the chair. Looking for options, this Purple cushion came up quite a bit and the marketing materials checked all my use boxes.<br /><br />So did the cushion help, well, yes it did. I can definitely say it is much better than the cushioning the chair came with. However, after several weeks of use, I can say it really is not that much more of an improvement over just a normal style well built cushion made of foam or latex.<br /><br />The design of this makes it breathe really well, but this design also causes some issues after a long period of use. There is a pretty good sweet spot where you have to have the cushion just right for it to support you correctly without creating pressure points.<br /><br />What does it feel like to sit on after several hours? Have you ever sat on one of those drainage grates with the rectangular holes? There you go, it's not as harsh, but you can definitely feel a waffle effect after a while and you can tell that it is a grid that you are sitting on.<br /><br />Would I recommend this cushion? Not at this price, I can see some people finding it very useful if they have a seat that can accommodate it well, but having it be that specific makes this something you can't just throw down an use everywhere. It isn't completely bad, but there are probably better options out there.
