You know I have bad back pain and because of no movement in my right arm I seem to lean to my right which is putting a kink in my poor back and yes it hurts a lot sometimes so I've been looking into seating alternatives and found this a while back but it's expensive but it looks like it would do worlds of good.
Any one ever try one?
There's also cushions I've been looking into.

Some learn quickly, while others learn in time that seat and positioning is everything when using a wheelchair is not an option, but a necessity. Poor positioning can produce further discomfort and injury. A positioning evaluation takes longer, but is worth the effort. Ask anyone who has had one.

I had an Everest and Jennings power wheelchair from 74-03, and I always had back neck and shoulder pain and I felt hunched over plus needing to be pulled up in my care, all the time, which I don't experience in my Permobile. I seemed to fall over and much more, not staying straight. I still have a world that is a problem because of my broken left leg. That was not repaired because of osteoporosis and the hip disintegrated causing me to lean to the left.
