Roho Mosaic Seat Cushion 18” x 16” Inflatable Air Cell Design, Adjustable Firmness, Non-Skid Cover, Lightweight Portable Cushion for Wheelchair, Office Chair, Car & Home | Inflatable seat cushion with adjustable air cells that shape to you for comfort through long sitting

Wonderful product. If you have issues with sitting I would recommend this 100%. I have hip and back issues and this product really helps. It is so good I have to be sure not to sit too long without getting up! Follow the adjustment instructions when inflating it for best comfort. Quality materials and comes with the pump to fill it. Only down side issue: If you sit down hard on it repeatedly, a little air escapes and you may need to add some. Yes it is a $$$, but I think it is worth every penny (nickel).

So… Yes, this is a Roho brand *seat* cushion with a cover, pump, patch kit, instructions, and paperwork. No, it is not a Roho *medical* cushion, but it's not meant to be. A Roho medical / wheelchair cushion is designed for people with spinal cord injuries (who can't feel when blood circulation is getting cut off) and for folks with cognitive or communication issues (who can't tell you when things are going numb). The medical grade cushions (which this one is not) are made out of rubber, have high strength metal inflation valves, and come in many different sizes and configurations (like the ability to have different pressure in different parts of the cushion). *THIS* Roho seat cushion is nice quality, especially for the price point. I was actually quite pleasantly surprised when opening the package. And there are important differences to be aware of before purchasing: - Fewer size options - 315 lbs weight limit - Plastic valve instead of metal - Plastic air bladder instead of rubber - Air cell heights are all 3" tall - Fewer air cells - And the air cells are larger Normally you would anticipate this cushion to have a 5 x 5 cell configuration (a grid of 5 columns of 5 rows), or 25 air cells total. However, this cushion has been designed differently. Sitting on the cushion, from left-to-right the cells are arranged 4, 5, 5, 5, 4, for a total of 23 air cells. Who cares, right? Well, having fewer cells on the far left and far right means those cells are larger. In effect, those larger edge cells act as a channel to help keep your legs straight; therefore it's easier to keep your knees together. If you're wearing a skirt or kilt, that might be a benefit for you. Alternately, if you like looking like a cowboy with your knees splayed apart for comfort, you’re still good – it ‘helps’ keep your knees together, but it doesn’t ‘force’ them together. IMPORTANT: The single biggest problem any Roho cushion is over inflation. Folks, this cushion isn't a flotation device - don't pump it up and then sit "on top" of the cushion! You're supposed to sink "down into" the cushion. Ideally, you want 1/2" of air between your I.T.'s (your ‘ischial tuberosities’ or 'butt bones') and the bottom of the cushion. Think air suspension, not air flotation. The included instruction paperwork (which nobody reads) has a very clear description of how to achieve the perfect inflation level. If you've inflated your cushion correctly, when you get off the cushion it's SUPPOSED to look 'low on air' or 'going flat'. You want the minimum amount of air possible that can still keep your body correctly suspended. Pumping it up like a life raft (which is adding more air pressure) is just that - it's adding pressure against your skin. I know it sounds weird since low pressure in any kind of pool toy or tire is generally a really bad thing. It's your cushion and you can inflate it till it pops if you want. But as someone with lots of experience in this area, you'll be more comfortable and have less punctures if you follow the instructions. Of course, YMMV. In short, this Roho ‘seat cushion’ has features *similar* to a Roho medical cushion. But it can’t compare to the medical grade cushions. And that's fine because it's not intended to be a competitor for the medical cushions. Can you use it in a wheelchair? Of course - provided that wheelchair occupant can communicate to a caregiver (or transfer out of the chair independently) if the cushion gets a flat. Is it as durable as a medical grade Roho? No - So don't go 'plopping' down on it, don't stash your keys, pen, or reading glasses under your leg. Treat the cushion with care (especially when inflating) because the valve is plastic. Can it be repaired? Yes - Patching punctures in the air bladder is a cinch with the included repair kit. But if you twist that plastic valve too hard (in either direction), you're going to have a bad day. I've repaired many medical grade Roho cushions in my day, and valve repairs were always a messy hit/miss situation. Glue everywhere, slow leaks, ick! Verdict? - I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this Roho 'seat' cushion to anyone who is having sitting pain in a vehicle, office chair, or occasional use in a wheelchair (trips to the doctor, church, dinner, library, concert, movie, visiting family). - I would ABSOLUTELY NOT recommend this Roho 'seat' cushion for someone in a wheelchair who self-ambulates (by using their feet or the handrims) and is in the wheelchair all day. It's not designed for that task, and you're going to be disappointed. Get a medical grade Roho instead. IMPORTANT: Twenty years ago, the cost to perform skin-flap surgery to repair a pressure sore was about $60K. (It's probably twice that cost today). Human skin is one of your body organs, and if your skin is damaged it can quickly lead to serious infections. ‘Nuff said. TL;DR - If your butt hurts, this is a really solid cushion for the price. If you're in a wheelchair all day, get a medical grade Roho instead.

Bought it for a convalescing buddy. He was ecstatic about how much more comfortable it is vs. the pad the wheelchair came with. He said it's like a night and day difference. The material and softness were much appreciated. He was getting sore from the old one; this gave him relief.

My husband is in a wheelchair full time and has been using Roho cushions for a long time. We bought this one to replace the one he had been using for several years. The first one they sent didn't fully inflate. We had not opened the cushion covering so the seller agreed to send a new cushion. We received it in about a week and it inflated properly. Roho recently redesigned the cushion so that the cells in the outer edges of the cushion are larger than the cells in the middle so it has a contoured shape rather than the uniform flat shape of the previous model. My husband likes the old version better, but the new version works fine. You can machine wash the cushion cover and hand wash the actual cushion itself. It's easy to inflate with the hand pump. My husband weighs about 150 lbs. and I only have to inflate the cushion every week or so. Roho's aren't the cheapest, but they last so I would recommend them. Just make sure to check the cushion inflation before opening the cushion cover or you can't return it if something is wrong because it's considered a "personal care item."

I have bought three of these ROHO cushions. I am a quadriplegic with progressive multiple sclerosis. I have another friend with the same condition who passed away due to pressure sores. I am trying desperately to keep the same thing from happening to myself. I have tried many cushions, and the only one that actually helped my sores to heal was the Rojo cushion. I know quite a few other people in wheelchairs who also use these cushions, and they also feel that it is prevented them from pressure sores. I bought two of these one year ago, and they have both failed. The quality has gone down. For one thing, they changed the valve. It used to be a metal valve where you pump the air in. Now it is a plastic valve. These cushions used to last for many years, and now these newer ones with the plastic valves fail. The two that I bought last year about a month apart from here on Amazon have both developed leaks and I can’t find where the leak is coming from. I think the valves are faulty. I am not sure but now I am going to have to find something else and I’m worried because the only thing that works for me is the ROHO cushion. I am trying to find some alternative to this product. They are using cheap materials now, and it is certainly not worth the money. So unfortunately, I have to give a big thumbs down to the ROHO Company. People are going to lose their lives because of his companies having caved into greed and using cheap materials. It is a terrible shame.

I HIGHLY suggest everyone read the review left by Timothy Barrett because it’s completely accurate. I used to be a caregiver to a quadriplegic man and he has the medical grade ROHO. That thing was absolutely HEAVENLY to sit on. This cushion is quite similar but with larger & fewer “bubbles,” so you’re not going to get that same level as the medical grade but it’s perfection for those of us who are not confined to a chair all day & every day. I suggest UNDER filling it to start with and then slowly keep adding air until you hit that sweet spot. Due to chronic pain issues that leave me quite disabled a lot of the time, this cushion is what I’ve been trying to avoid splurging on. I’ve bought every conceivable cushion hoping to “save money” but in the end this is what I’ve been needing and spent twice the cost just to get to that determination. It’s a godsend for those of us with sciatica, hip pain, degenerative disc disease, and/or arthritis of the ischial tuberosity (sit bone) -and sitting too much & at risk of developing “bedsores.” My happy place is rotating between sitting on this, a water pillow, and large reusable ice packs. (“A happy bum is a numb bum” - Confucius) If you suffer as much as I do (you poor thing!!), don’t even bother with anything else except what I mention above. This is the Gold Standard of cushions. Oh, some people have complained about the valve. I haven’t had any issues and found it incredibly easy to inflate or deflate using the pump included. Lastly: I don’t use the cover. If you live in a cold climate maybe that would make sense to you but I prefer no cover & allowing air to circulate.

This has worked very well. My husband is in his wheelchair a big part of the day. This is making it much more comfortable for him. Easy to clean too.

I loved it at first. It lifted me up about 2". Then it went flat on 31st and 36th day. I repaired both leaks. The leaks occurred at the tiny passageway where air transfers from one bladder to an adjacent bladder. It went flat again around the 45th day. So I bought a second one, and the same thing. Do not roll off the front or side edge of your seat. This puts tremendous pressure on those perimeter bladders and will blow out the tiny air passageway between bladders. Sit straight down on the seat evenly, and get up the same way. If you are heavier, over 200lbs, I suggest finding an alternative.

Works well and good quality

Works respally well.

Minder çok hafif çok ince bu kadar beklemiyordum.Pişman oldum bilseydim almazdım.

Buen producto

There is a manufacturing defect, and the seller does not accept a return or refund. The seller guarantees you for a short period not exceeding a month and does not accept a return. I have had the same type for 10 years or more and nothing like what happened to this product has happened to it. There is an air leakage vent, which is a manufacturing defect.
