in my younger years as a quad I did fine on rojo and Jay cushions – – pneumatic and gel respectively.
At 30 years post my body had had enough and I developed a sore that kept me in bed for a year I tried more than 20 different products on the market the only cushion that worked dependably for long hours of sitting in with no breakdown were the Ride Cushions. highly customized and highly durable and absolute miracle workers in that it enabled me to go back to work and be more active raising my kids https://www.ridedesigns.com/wheelchair-cushions ________________________________ From: Jeffrey Gaede <jsga...@yahoo.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 9, 2024 10:33 AM To: quad-list@eskimo.com <quad-list@eskimo.com>; Dan G. <dng47...@gmail.com>; Daniel Gove <quadz...@optonline.net>; wheel...@centurylink.net <wheel...@centurylink.net> Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] https://www.amazon.com/Orthopedic-Cushion-Haemorrhoids-Suitable-Wheelchair/dp/B07WWN6933/ref=sr_1_7?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.1GIYkUexyNJ_5G8FHaBiHpiOKc70Us6r4iV3NYFnV8iOoImDWy0uufcBcD28PWIFy8s7VpJuynUbLzQT0pK9b_ylEuea7JwedZpPM4BSXKifeaAtE-d86HvuMY...

Not saying that it shouldn't be used. Just say be careful.
