DMI Raised Toilet Seat Cushion Seat Cushion and Seat Cover to Add Extra Padding to the Toilet Seat while Relieving Pressure, Tear Resistant, FSA & HSA Eligible, 2 Inch Pad, White

This 2" high cushion is just enough in height to bring comfort and avoid heavy pressure behind the thighs, which like in my case can later stir up nerve pain in the leg. For a long while, my left leg would hurt so badly behind the thigh, nerve pain then going all the way down to my heel and foot. And nothing made the pain go away, including medication for nerve injuries. Then I noticed how I spend too much time on the throne (so not necessary), and that was causing pressure behind my left leg in particular, causing a lot of leg pain. I thought of how a padded cushion would help, went to Amazon and ordered this yesterday and it came overnight!! As I opened this review, I said that the 2" is sufficient. However, if you are heavier than 150 lbs, you might want the 4" high cushion, as to not flatten it completely. In just a half a day, it has proved to help reduce that nagging pain I had. A very helpful product for sure! Thank you to the company and the seller for making this a great price. From experience, I can say in some medical supply stores it would be twice this price.

Purchased this cushion to help with the post op pain I was having after hip surgery. This is one of the things the ad said it did.. The cushionis so soft, that when sitting on it, the hole closes up so small, that it renders the pad unusable. Unless you want to deal with a colossal mess, I would stay away from this. Since I had to completely destroy the packaging to open it, I couldn’t really send it back, so now I use it as a seat cushion to lessen the pain when getting up from a chair.

Bought this for my mom as she fell and had trouble sitting, thus was softer than her toilet seat and also more cushion and higher which was helpful.

It's too soft.I bought it for not bending my knees.I had surgery it's just too soft

Waiting for an easier to clean cover to put on it. I plan on taping it to the seat then taping the cover to it....will be nice even if weight compresses it. Better than the hard plastic seat now.

Really helpful in recovering from back surgery. I have a tall toilet so two inch was high enough to use then get off the toilet.

When I needed a colonoscopy, I was most anxious about how my bad back would fare, spending hours at a time on the toilet. This got the best reviews for adding comfort to an existing toilet seat, so despite the negative reviews, I bought it.Thanks to other reviews, I knew it would compress when I sat down (making the opening much smaller), so I purposely held the seat wide as I sat, so I didn’t have an issue with- um- stuff getting on it. I just didn’t attach it to the seat.My complaint is that it doesn’t give sufficient cushioning. I felt it while it was sealed and thought the foam was fairly dense, but as soon as I took it out of the wrapping, it was about as cushy as a piece of lunch meat. Yes, it was definitely better than a hard seat, but it was not as cushiony as I’d hoped and thought it was when I felt it while sealed.If they made this with a denser foam, it would be great, at least for short-term use (like colonoscopy prep or when recovering from a medical procedure or issue), but they should make the inner part more rigid so it doesn’t close in so much. It does seem like the material would clean fairly well, if this is your only option for longer use, although I won’t need it for another ten years, thank goodness, so as much as I hate contributing to the landfills and buy-it-and-chuck-it habit, I indeed threw it out.I didn’t need it for rising (as it mentions in the description and on the package), but that’s ridiculous for it to claim it will help. This certainly won’t elevate you 2”, and I would be surprised if it elevates even half an inch, so your money would be much better spent at a medical supply store or for an actual toilet seat riser. it compresses nearly flat as soon as you sit down, so it doesn’t provide any lift at all, if that’s what you’re looking for.

Raise your expectations from scrapping the water top. This 2" Boost does the job
