The ability to adjust the cushion to my husbands needs, even as they might change, is a great benefit. It is easy to adjust, too.

The fact that it could be punctured makes me nervous. But after a month of use, it seems sturdy enough.

My husband has been confined to a wheelchair with Inclusion Body Myositis for 4 years losing muscle mass, we need to be careful of pressure sores.

The strength of this particular product is the contour shape of the cushions. The legs are maintained in a better position and the torso is held in a better position.

The weakness of this product is that the air intake valve is now plastic instead of the sturdy metal and the chamber lock valve is a little tougher to slide into the open and locked positions.

I've been using these conditions for years. Despite the fact they are pneumatic they hold up very well. I've never had any breakdown.

It is a pneumatic cushion so you really do need to have a backup.

This ROHO cushion has the same quality as my previous ROHO cushions.

The cushion causes too much pressure on my hips due to my instability, I was unable to use it.

I am a 60 yr old woman disabled by Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I use a wheelchair for mobility due to unstable pelvis, hips and SI joint.

Very good product, my wife doesn't want to use any other cushion.

No weakness.

Durable, practical, easy to use mostly, helps with sitting for long periods.

Cost, but it is a quality product. And it helps with my pressure sores.

54 year old double below the knee amputee paralyzed from the chest down, wheelchair bound 12-14 hours a day, diabetic with pressure sore on my sacrum.

It is the only thing I can use in order to sit down. The 2 separate air chambers provide comfort and allow me to sit.

Cost.

jeffrey v. from dakota dunes, sd

I suffer from Piriformis syndrome. I use this product every time I sit down. So I must carry the cushion everywhere I go.
