C CUSHION LAB Patented Pressure Relief Seat Cushion for Long Sitting Hours on Office/Home Chair, Car, Wheelchair - Extra-Dense Memory Foam for Hip, Tailbone, Coccyx, Sciatica - Light Grey

We eat dinners in the family room while watching a movie and sit on an old couch with a coffee table that raises to table height. I am 77 years old and sitting on the worn and flattened cushions of the couch was causing pain in my hips so that it was difficult to walk for a bit when I got up from the couch. By the end of a 2-hour movie, my legs were uncomfortable, beginning to ache, and felt like the blood supply was cut off from them because the couch cushion flattened so that the frame of the couch was hitting the back of my thigh.Since we haven't found time to get out to find a replacement couch, I turned to Amazon to find a temporary solution. I ordered this "butt cushion" in addition to 4 others in hopes that one of them would relieve the discomfort of sitting on our couch. I wanted something firm enough to overcome the flattening of the old couch cushions, but, it trying the different cushions, I found that shape and size is also important. Since I weigh 112 lbs., most of the cushions I ordered were firm enough, but the support offered by each was different. Some flattened after a short time, and some just weren't very comfortable because of the shape.This cushion is more expensive than the others I tried, but saving money at the expense of less comfort wasn't an option. I have been using this cushion every night for over a week, and no longer have the hip pain when I get up from the couch. The leg discomfort is also gone. The 4 other cushions have been returned. Since I weigh 112 lbs., I can't vouch for how this cushion would hold up to more weight, but it works for me and I am happy with it.UPDATE 07/30/24:I have been using this "butt cushion" every evening for at least 3 hours for the last 2 months, and I wouldn't want to do without it. In this time, it has not flattened at all, is very supportive, and perfectly fits the contour of my butt and thighs so I no longer get pains in my hips and legs from sitting on our old couch. You would think that finding a suitable cushion to sit on would be an easy task. In my experience of trying different cushions, I found that the perfect cushion is a very personal thing. Not only does it have to supply a comfortable firmness for support, but it must conform to your individual "butt contour". It is often necessary to try more than one to find the one that is perfect for you. This cushion is all that for me.UPDATE 12/16/24:I have now been using this cushion on my couch to sit on for over 6 months. It is still as supportive as it was when new, and has not flattened at all. Since using it, I have not had pains in my hips or legs after sitting on the couch. The cushion is so comfortable, we have put off getting a new couch. I suppose this is the only down side to having a comfortable cushion to sit on.I hope this review was helpful for you.

This cushion (and the back rest) saved me money from having to buy a desk chair. The desk chair in the room I am now in was so uncomfortable I couldn't stand to be in it more than 30 minutes at most - my back hated that chair, so did my old piriformis injury--even getting up a lot and moving around as I do, this chair was simply awful.I stumbled on an ad for these cushions and decided to order from Amazon, even though amazon is becoming iffy on some things, like why did the cushion come in a box but the back support did not? Was it returned and sold again - ew - you can never trust Amazon anymore to know quality control or the newness of something.This seat is high so I have to use a foot rest but I had one any way since I'm only 5'2". it molds to my body. I'm about 117 pounds and I have plenty of room. It fits on the chair so there's not very much overhang, and this chair is not very big.It's cushiony but not soft, supportive. My back pain and leg pain were relieved by 85%-90%. And if I get up plenty of times, sometimes I have no pain (this is with the back support, so note that).Function wise, it does what I need it to do. It's sturdy, helps with pain relief, and comforts to my body instead of being a hard flat surface.It is not pleasing to look at - since I have to look at it every day, I wish I could cover it up with something else - bleh. Or I wish I had ordered both pillows in black - the grey does not look good and sticks out in a way I dislike - that's on me; should have returned and ordered the black.

I was having issues with leg pain and back pain which I attribute to sitting for too long in one position at my desk. Since getting a new chair wasn't an option, I needed to find another solution. This product was a game changer. I felt immediate relief and even after using it for over a week, none of my pain has come back. Great product, easy to use, very comfortable and offers the right amount of support.

I purchased this because my office chair is about 7 years old and the seat cushion is just flat, hard, and uncomfortable now. I was getting pretty bad sciatica pains and stuff hips. Upon first several months of use, it was wonderful as it relieved pressure points and I sat with better posture. I work from home and I try to split my time sitting and standing with my adjustable desk. Eventually, I needed some more support for my back, so I purchased the back cushion too (great product). But, over time, I became somewhat of a slouchy sitter, and due to the angle I certainly did some more damage than good despite both cushions. Good to maybe rotate different type of cushions or frequently changing from sitting to standing if you can while working for long periods.

When your ten-year-old La-Z-Boy recliner's padding breaks down and sitting in the chair causes pain instead of being comfortable, you end up needing a cushion like this one. I chose this design and brand because I suffer terribly from sciatica, and I desperately hoped it would help relieve some of that agony.The pillow's unusual shape, I think, is what allows it to distribute weight better than most other tailbone/sciatica pillows. It holds its shape VERY well, and that's amazing considering how much time I spend sitting on it. I'll admit that if I don't sit on it just right, it ends up exacerbating the sciatica pain, and that's instant. I just get up and readjust myself until it feels better, and that clears up the discomfort.This has to be the most comfortable pillow I've found. I wish I could afford a couple of the addons the company recommends, like the lumbar pillow or the foot rest pillow. The only problem I have isn't a pillow issue, but a "me" issue. My rear end is just a tad too wide for the pillow. I'm working on it, though, and soon I'll be a better fit. Works for me!
