There are so many options, how would we know how to choose a roho cushion best for our son?

It depends how much customization you need to profile your butt. The quadro has 4 separate chambers that adjust to your seating position when the valve is open. You can even push down on individual chambers manually to create a customized seat. Once the chambers are filled at the required level, the valve is closed and the pillow remains the way you want it. A less costly version has only dual chambers for customization. It does work.

I believe you can go to the ROHO website and there you can either ask their customer service about specifics and or they have information listed for you to decide the best type of cushion. ROHO is the best cushion I know of and we recommend it here at our Caregivers Plus home health care for our clients. Especially good at preventing pressure sores. It is expensive but it is worth it.

It was recomended to me by a care giver so I bought it for my wife, but unfortunately she did not live long enough to use it so I still have the new roho with a spare cover and am unable to answer the question. did not live long enough to

Yes! For extra cushion I also used the rug I had in the living room and placed it underneath the mat in his playing area. But as soon as they become more mobile they will crawl around the house and the hard floors are not a problem for them as I found out. Since I still think it must be uncomfortable, I just had him wearing pants all the time. So although the mat is great, they won't need it for very long.

personally we love the britax carseats, we have had the roundabout marathon regent and now frontier. i have two boys, 5 and 2, who were big boys while babies. i loved the easy install with LATCH and how extremely sturdy they were once installed properly. we had evenflo and graco on different occasions for my husbands truck for the occasional use, but ended up buying britax seats to replace them. so we have four different britax seats now. i would recommend the marathon for now for your little one, it is rated up to 65 pounds and is very comfortable for sleeping if they fall asleep, next would be the frontier which i love the improvements they have made on the booster/convertible regent, it is rated up to 100 pounds with lap shoulder belt and you can use the 5 pt harness up to 85 pounds, highest rating out there!! must be able to check out the seats if you have access to them to see if what will fit in your car and how your child fits into the seat as well. once you decide, REGISTER the seat, regardless of which brand you choose so you can be notified of any recalls, good luck choosing, there are a lot out there!

I emailed Furniture Creations and they are not able to get replacement cushions. I asked a separate question yesterday because I see this couch on other sites with a back cushion over the arm rest on the non-chaise side, and I prefer how that looks. I emailed to ask if I could buy an extra cushion, but it's not possible. I don't understand why that's not included on this version? The price is lower than other sites, but it just seems weird that on other sites it's the same couch with one more back cushion. I'm going to contact a few other retailers and see if I can find someone who will. I tried Poundex, but as another reviewer said, they don't deal with us "general public." ;) I emailed Furniture Creations and they are not able to get replacement cushions.

You can buy cushions from various stores for rockers although they are quite expensive. I bought just a cushion for the seat.

When my son was just starting to learn to sit up, he slumped to the side too. He did better when I set the seat up straighter and attached the tray. I also grabbed our insert from our mama roo and it fit perfectly! Plus looked cute. But I'm sure the Britax insert would work too.

Hello Claire - I don't think this would be a good choice. I think he'd want a cushion with memory foam and pretty thick. This cushion is not that firm on one side; the other side is a hard board. I suggest you find a medical supply company. Try www.americandiabeteswholesale.com or www.feelgoodstore.com . Cinda

Because of bursitis and sitting pain, I use the RoHo cushion mostly on car seats and unpadded chairs; but the cushion would work in a recliner. I'm thin and do use other thin and thick pillows around the house.

Don't know, but shoe companies and Amazon reviewers will often note which shoes provide most cushioning. Thick sox can help but shoes more important. Pay attention to your gait. Learn to run like an Indian. You can chose to glide or stomp ahead.

Given that I have only bought one size, and I am a fully grown adult, it's difficult for me to recommend which one you should pick for your son. But, I did scan through the reviews to see which ones mention buying smaller sizes for their children. I came across a few that would at least come close to your son's statistics. The first one I found was bought for a 9 year old who was "Very tall" for her age, and they got her a medium. The reviewer said that if you buy a size perhaps slightly bigger than you were hoping for, the outfit comes with several straps that wrap around the waist and legs that can tighten it. (which I can confirm is true.) The only part that I've ever found to be loose is the upper chest region. I can't even seem to get that region to stay tucked in when I move around too much in the outfit. Also, another reviewer bought this for her 13 year old son who was 5'7 and 120 pounds and chose large. She said it was "a tad loose, but not too long." This is probably the example you were looking for, so listen carefully: Given the fact that you son is the same age as hers, and is both shorter and weighs less than her son, Medium might be a wiser choice - but remember I can't confirm that, I've never bought or tried any other side except for XL. At any rate, I think whether you pick medium or large everything will be fine. The medium might fit perfectly, and the large, if you decided to get that one, would at least be really comfortable, nonrestrictive to motor functions, and more importantly; he'd be able to continue using it as he ages and grows. So either decision you make I think you'll find good things about either of them. Hope I was of help.

There's different size cushion bud things that come with it, they should work for most people I think.

I found some at Target that fit pretty well. The brand is Threshold. They can creep out the front a little when someone is sitting in them, so I just try to tie the cushion to the chair tightly.

We have had one for over 6-8 months, and bought another Recaro at least 6 months ago. I wouldn't buy any other brand. This is our third set of seats, as our son is 5. I can't recall what we had before, but next time around, Recaro, Recaro, Recaro. I don't own stock or anything like that.

You can just purchase the cushions (only). Google the name and search for the cushions, they will be listed as a cheaper price as clue....

Most co-ops use K55 or U23 profile cushions. Your current cushions may have a sticker or they could be stamped the size.

The car seat is padded with memory foam. That being said I have seen parents struggle with car seats no matter what the brand. My advice is to make sure that your child is properly fitted for the seat and that you observe whether or not your child's reaction is one of discomfort or discontent.
