Standard Size Ventilated Seat Cushion, Blue

Once a summer mainstay of auto supply stores, dime stores and discount department stores such as Caldor, ventilated car seats are now quite hard to find. In a car without air conditioning, they really help to keep you cooler. One big advantage, your back won't be wet with sweat when you arrive with one of these.I use this on the vinyl seat of my mobility scooter, it's a perfect fit and does it's job very well. Looks like it's well made, however most of these only lasted a season or two.

I'm probably the only person on the planet that does not like (unventilated/unheated) leather seats in cars (per my wife), but I sweat on them in the summer and freeze on them in the winter. I prefer fabric for comfort (if not for looks or fashion). I drive long distances for work and got "stuck" with leather seats in my company car. This product solved both problems amazingly well and for a bargain price. I find it very comfortable to sit on for long distances. I've had my first one for 9 months and 25,000 miles and the covering is now starting to come apart at the drivers-door edge. I cannot imagine buying a different technology of product when this has worked so well. Highly recommended!

I like how this keeps your behind cool during those summer months (which is 10 months a year for us!)I drive a vehicle for at least 12 hours straight and when you point your A/C vent downwards, the air actually keeps you cool! No more swamp butt!One big flaw though is the material. I wear an equipment belt whenever I drive so the rubbing against the cushion rips up the material over time. Right now parts of the cushion is already worn down and you can see the coils showing through. Perhaps better improvement on the outer material should help?

I've had this for just over one year -- i use it in a vehicle that may get used once or twice each week (and i stopped using the cushion alltogether in the winter). The seams have failed in three places exposing the wire construction coils. I have repaired them with gaffer tape which is likely more resilient the materials used in the cushion itself. It gives fine ventilation in the summer, but it doesn't stay in place very well and interferes with the seatbelt buckle access. More gaffer tape would minimize shifting, but if it's just going to fall to pieces after only several dozen uses, what's the point in continually fixing the repairs? Like everything else, our disposable society would rather buy something cheap and expendable -- if there were a higher quality option, i would easily spend $50 if the thing was built to last.BTW; I use the cushion in pick-up truck that is rather high off the ground (with no side steps) and it requires me to "slide" in and out of the vehicle -- i'm sure this is something that has exploited the inherent weaknesses of the materials.

My husband purchased a 1950 Chevy Pickup for his retirement a few years ago. Beautiful black with black leather seat covers. Those unfamiliar with old vehicles need to be reminded that there is no airconditioning except for the windows and a few vents. Needless to say that the interior gets very very warm in the summer. I remembered that my grandparents had removable meshy seat cushions that they used when I was a little girl. Although their buicks had the earliest form of airconditioning, it still got quite warm inside. I searched the internet and of course Amazon had just what I was looking for. Are they gorgeous and stylish? No. But they certainly do the job and allow air to circulate under and behind you. It has been used all summer with little sign of wear. Do I expect it to last years? No, but for the price we will get good use of it and then purchase another. It's been a life saver.

Ouch !!! First of all, this is NOT a cushion. You're sitting on a grid of 3/4-inch steel coils, spaced in a checkerboard square grid about 2-1/4 inches apart, with NOTHING between the steel coils. That's all. No cushion. And it is covered by a very rough material. I mean, you could exfoliate your skin with the outer covering of this thing; it's harsher than a Loofah scrubber pad.Yeah, OK, you get SOME air circulation (not much, but more than I had, without this "Kool Kooshion"), but if you don't have plenty of fat on your buttocks, this thing is going to hurt after a while of sitting on it.I tried. I can't take it anymore.

So far it's working okay, but I've only had it a week. It's not very soft and cushy, but that's because it's made with springs. It's good to get the air circulating between me and my vinyl truck seat. As others have stated, the back side is a bit too short, it stops right in my middle to upper back. The elastic strap is on the small side as well, I had to be careful as I fitted it in my work truck (Ford F350) The elastic band is quite stretched and looks like it might tear in the near future. The biggest advantage of this cushion is I am now sitting up 1 - 2 inches taller in my seat, I like to be seated up tall for better visibility of road hazards. It's the end of March, I hope to get 1 summer use out of this cushion before it starts to fall apart. I will try to update this if it fails prematurely.

Stops back sweat in the car. My new car's leather seats made me have horrible back sweat this summer. I looked near and far for a well rated product. I started out looking for seat beads, but many people complained of them falling apart after a short amount of time.I cam across this and can tell you that it works very well. I can feel the air circulating between the seat and my back and cooling me off. It has springs between two layers of mat material. I think that it will hold up well. So far so good, over the last month.
