I am searching for a soft cushon...does this qualify or is it very firm?

It is neither soft nor firm - it is a flexible cushioning support, like a gel shoe insert. Look at the detailed description and picture.

The wondergel cushion comes in a thick for around $100 and a half size for around $50. Both do me well, I use the thicker one in the vehicle and the thinner one for inside, places I visit. Without my trips are short and my stays are shorter. Great product for me..............shs

The thicker the cushion you buy I think the softer it will be. I have 2 1" pads and they are soft enough for my husband. He is confined to his chair all day and it has prevented any bedsores.

I would not call it soft. But it is also not "firm" at all. It has some "give" because of the honeycomb. I used it to ride in the van for several hours (getting out a couple of times) and my "sitting bones" were not nearly as stiff. I guess my wheelchair foam cushions are more firm. I was worried about firmness, too, but took a chance and am satisfied. Something softer might also be thicker, which wouldn't do well for the car. And this one is easy to transport, so those are additional considerations. Hope that helps. (I see that someone else mentioned stacking 2 of them. THAT would make it softer, if height isn't an issue. And I *think* maybe the same company has a thicker one? Not sure.) I would not call it soft. But it is also not "firm" at all. It has some "give" because of the honeycomb.

It is firm but not hard. It's memory foam - so it keeps its shape well but it's squishy and comfortable.

I believe this mattress to be medium in firmness. I weigh around 320lbs and it works well enough... could be a little more firm, but is much better than my old coil-spring mattress (no more stiff joints and back pain). If I had to do it again, I would probably purchase an 8-10 inch foam mattress... less material to compress (sink into) for someone my size. I also purchased a proper base for this mattress as well. It could be a little more firm for my preference, but I'd give it an 8.5 out of 10. Other than that, it's great.

The mattress is a soft medium...very comfortable, but I haven't slept an entire night on it yet, so I'm not sure how my back will hold up. You might want to look at some other options, because it is definitely not firm.

Yes, it's very comfortable. Soft enough....yet firm. Perfect for my post exercise stretching routines. I now own 3 of them in order to have them available at the locations I frequent.....home, office, and vacation home.

This is not a soft cushy memory foam mattress. At best it is medium firm and o love it. My wife is arthritic and prefers one a little softer. This is a wonderful mattress.

Mattress really isn't soft. Very firm mattress which is what we were looking for. You will not sink down into mattress if that is what you are meaning.

I would call it firm, but not super firm. I call it just right! We tried medium and soft and found them to be to soft

I would say yes it is firm. The problem for me was that it was too thick. Pushed me too far forward. My upper back then was not supported. It felt great on an easy chair at home. Not good in my truck.

Yes but not super firm. More firm than I would personally prefer, but I like very cushy mattresses. My son sleeps on it and he loves it.

It is firm, but not hard firm like a regular mattress. I find it extremely comfortable to sleep on and gives great support. I would never go back to a regular mattress. It bounces back right after you get out of bed.

This is NOT a squishy mattress! Firm and comfortable from the get go. I have had it several months now and it is still firm and comfy. I would buy it again and will recommend it to you. Good luck!

It's fairly firm, I would recommend you go down to a mattress store and lay down on one of their memory foam mattresses. That is the firmness of that type of mattress.

Yes, it is actually very firm. The picture of the hand print left in the matteress is misleading. This mattress is far to firm to leave a hand print.

It is soft but not too soft . I find that it is just the perfect comfort for me. It gives some when you lay on it. But not to the point where you are unable to move, it other words you don't feel like you fell in a massive hole and can't get out! Lol! But it is just the right amount of comfort!

It is very comfortable however it may not be firm enough for your liking. I would agree with the others who say it is "medium to soft." If you can check one out in a store first, you could "con-firm" if it is firm enough for your liking:-)

It is not stiff and is very comfortable. I would not say it is real soft, but firm enough to give good support. Just right for me! I weigh over 220#.
