A medical grade gel seat and wheelchair cushion made from a dry-polymer gel in a columnar structure 2.5" deep. Very comfortable, highly effective, durable and long lasting. Excellent for people with, or at risk, of pressure sores. Perfect for people needing a serious pressure and pain relieving cushion. Its unique design and cellular structure allows weight to pass outwards and away from pressure points. The areas most likely to develop pressure sores are allowed to float nearly pressure-free within the pad while the user's weight is distributed evenly across the cushion. Traditional cushioning technologies compress under load and "push back" causing pressure and ischemia and putting a user at risk of developing an ulcer. The farther a foam is compressed, the harder it pushes back, meaning greater the risk of developing a sore. This old compression strategy only attempts to slow the development of pressure sores rather than eliminating pressure points. Air cushions have this same problem, especially as they go out of proper adjustment. With the Equagel cushion users can sit comfortably and safer for longer. In 10 out of 10 clinical trials, patients with stage 3 decubitus ulcers saw those sores close with the aid of our column buckling-gel technology. It has similar widely-recognized success in wound care as a critical care hospital bed. EquaGelTM's patented technology has been approved as a medical surface in the US and Canada.

Very thick
This is ok. Not for me, this was so thick it was almost stiff. I thought the thicker the more support but in this case it just didn't work for me. Maybe it will for you. I returned it for a full refund. I weigh about 150, that may be why. If you weigh about 200 it may work better.

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY
I have been using different cushions for over 30 years and I never considered jel cushions because of how heavy they were until recently a friend of mine showed me a cushion called miracle cushion. I put it on my chair and it felt great so I ordered one. I just received it yesterday and I can't tell you how comfortable it is and that I never have to send an air cushion out for repair and over and over because the repair doesn't last long. This cushion looks like it will last a life time. I don't know what it would feel like a month from now but so far I am a very happy guy.

Disappointed! !
Disappointed. Expensive, yes. But that was ok IF it was Comfortable. Unfortunately, it was not comfortable, it was noticeably uncomfortable. I returned it. And Amazon made that returning it fairly easy. Thank you.

I love it and have even recommended to my truck driver ...
Using this cushion instead of the regular chair cushion completely stopped my problem with pressure sores on my bottom. I got the 2.5 inch thick one. I love it and have even recommended to my truck driver son. Excellent product.
