Hi Glenn, Ever since I had my Stage III wound [actually two of them] in 2010 and I told my story of what happened on the Care Cure Community... the president of the ROHO contacted me and suggested their cushion would work the best for me BECAUSE OF MY CONDITION. So, since then, I have been using a Roho Quadtro Select High Profile cushion but I also have a Roho Quadtro Select Low Profile cushion. But, this is all based on my compromised skin.
The only thing I don't like about these cushions is they have to be constantly checked (maintenance) to make sure they are not going flat but the owner is great to work with. I have not had to add or take out any air in a long long time but that is because my skin is now doing great. Every other part of me is falling apart (especially the bladder) and so many other things but that is because I am living alone for the first time in my life and don't get much help with anything except for my care. Here are photos of the different cushions (which come with washable covers): https://www.pressuresorecushions.com/collections/roho-cushions?utm_campaign=ROHO%20Cushions&utm_content=ROHO%20Cushions%20-%20Shop&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=bing&utm_term=roho%20wheelchair%20cushion But if you are not having any problems with any wounds... a Varilite cushion is what I was using before and liked.
