We needed a couple of gel cushions that we could cut into the right sizes and shapes for different surfaces for my handicapped father to prevent pressure sores. Virtually all other vendors selling cushions already have them in covers which you pay for even if you aren't going to use them. We didn't want the extra expense of the covers just to toss them out. These cushions are great, better than many you'll pay nearly double for, and they have the advantage - for us - of being in their raw state so we can cut them and make our own covers as needed. We have purchased these twice now.

First of all I have to state that I work with Miracle Cushion, the supplier of the Roll & Go gel cushion but I have to say something about the Roll & Go gel seat cushion. These cushions are truly amazing. While they are only one inch high they cushion better than anything I have ever sat on. We use these in our home on hard kitchen chairs and home office chairs. We have given them to friends as gifts and they love them. We gave one to our sons mother-in-law who suffers lots of body pain and she thought it was great. People are always telling us they are the most comfortable cushion they have used. My husband has used one on long flights and says it has been a godsend to his aching tailbone. While I have to admit to having a vested interest I am a true believer in the product we sell.

I bought this product for my wheelchair-bound mother. She's tried other cushions but didn't find any of them comfortable. This is the one cushion that works for her. It's comfortable for her, and isn't bulky. I would recommend it to anyone.

I am often uncomfortable on long car rides. I bought the Wondergel seat in hopes it would help with several long days in the car. It really did. I won't say I was completely ache free but it was so much better than my last car trip. I may bring it in for my office chair. I wish they would make one that was the shape of a bucket seat because that might stay put a bit better. I'll definately need another wondergel seat cushion before the next car trip so I don't have to share.

I've tried a lot of pads and cushions, so I was looking for something special and innovative. Wondergel single gel pad fits the bill. It's just what I needed. Other pads all seem to about the same, and just get compressed after a while, but Wondergel has these chambers which allow the pressure points which kill your butt and shift around so it's real relief for sore butts while driving long hours. You don't even know it's there after a while, and that is what you need. It's not too high so it becomes part of the seat, and you can relax and think about other things instead of being reminded that you butt is killing you! It's the best I have ever tried, so I ordered a 2nd pad for the passenger side in my Van. It also does what those old pads used to do which had those wired like slinky rolls in them that allow your butt to stay dry on hot days, remember sweating on vinyl seats? However the little chambers are much more comfortable then those old spacey wired seats we used to buy years ago to keep your back and butt dry. For sure, it's a much different experience then a typical cushion, but I love it and I haven't tried anything near as comfortable to keep my butt from going to sleep and the pressure point problems you normally get. I got two of these before I decided to go on vacation, and I am glad I did!

This is the best cushion I have used. It really works. Even though it's a bit pricey I may get another one just so I don't have to remember to take it back and forth from home to work.

I purchased this based on other reviews to replace an old egg crate type cushion that had lost its cushioning due to age. It provided no cushioning for me. The cells didn't compress to give any comfort. It was no better than putting a magazine or two on the chair. I'm average weight - maybe if you're heavy it will help. My hip and back pain increased. The company will not take a return unless the item is received damaged.

I found out about this cushion from a coworker who uses one. I'm an airline pilot and, as expected, do a ton of traveling. Our seats can at times be pretty worn down. I use this for flying, and also when I sit as a passenger in the back. It really does a great job of relieving some of the pressure on my back. I think that it adapts easily to your body when you move, and stays intact (doesn't break down) over time. Great product. I actually just purchased a second one for my wife...she tried it out in the car and mentioned to me that she had to get one too! I would recommend this product to anyone who has to sit for a long period of time...whether it is in an airplane, car, or even office desk.

Our neighbors let us borrow these for a trip across country and I have never been more comfortable! I have been searching for them ever since. Please, please, make them available again!

I've tried a few different cushions becasue the seats in our 2009 Subaru Legacy are horrible in terms of comfort. Any rides longer than an hour cause lower back and tail bone pain that progressively gets worse the longer we drive. I have to tell you that this cushion looks odd but it really does work. No more pain at all. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is becasue it can be a bit annoying to use at times. Specifically, each time you get out of the car it moves and kind of bunches up becasue the gel material grips you pretty well. The other sometimes annoying thing is that becasue it's a rectangle shape it's not designed to be custom fit to the seat so you can feel where the cushion ends under your legs. The back side of the cushion has a fabric like material to protect your car's seat fabric.
