I've had repairs made when it was just punctures on the round egg
parts, and they've held pretty good. I've never tried fixing it when
it was in the seam, but I would think it would work just as well.
Although I'm thinking that there might be a manufacturer's defect if
it coming apart in the seams.
With your cushion, did you get a patch kit? Years ago (I would guess
around 20 years) the cushions used to have a tube of "rubber glue" in
it. It was black in color (to go with the cushion), and that stuff
would work great. I wouldn't even have to put a patch on top of the
repair. But lately, the patch kits have gotten flimsier, and the glue
isn't as thick.
Good luck with your repair, and let us know if the gorilla glue works
out. I'll have to try that with my next repair if it does work
Win.

Has anyone had any luck repairing a roho cushion? I bought a new
low profile roho about a year ago to sit on while in a car
seat. Last weekend it lost all of the air, found a hole/split in
the seam on the side of the cushion (where the top and bottom layers
come together). I filled the split with something called "gorilla
glue". It's drying right now. Don't know how trustworthy it's
going to be, would appreciate any advice if anybody has been able to
successfully repair a split like this.
