I hear complaints about the seats. Can anyone tell me the size of the seat so I can order a softer one?

There is a gel seat cover that I ordered that fits right over the old one, very nice.The original one is standard size, but I ordered a extra large seat cover

My husband and I are both "seniors". I started out by going to Wal-Mart and purchasing a gel seat pad to go over the original seat. This still was very uncomfortable for us. Returned that cover and purchased a whole new regular bike seat from Wal-Mart in a totally different design. A nice, wide seat. This seat works great though my husband did have to modify the plate to attach this type of seat onto an exercise bike. There are online sites that carry mounting systems to attach a regular bike seat to exercise bikes. Now we can both use the bike and be comfortable.

The seat is roughly the size of a "normal" bike seat. We found it very uncomfortable. Unfortunately, the seat is mounted with a flat plate instead of the normal bike seat configuration. We searched the internet and looked at our local bike store for a comfortable seat that didn't require welding a plate on it. The bike store told us he quit carrying this model bike because of the seat. However, we put a jell bike cover from Walmart on the existing seat and it works very well.

I just bought a gel seat cover at Wal Mart--inexpensive and it works great!

The seats aren't very comfortable so I ordered a seat cover from Amazon and it works just fine.

Because I'm a senior citizen with a larger butt, the new Schwinn Airdyne seat is a killer. There is not a replacement seat (12" wide) that can be installed. I did order via Amazon a 12" cushion that slips over the current seat and that did give me some relief.

The seat is 10 1/2 inches long by 8 1/2 inches wide. It has a non-standard three bolt mounting system. You can find out more by downloading the owner's manual from the Schwinn web site.

The seat is soft as it does have some padding already. Over time or even before the seat has been "broken-in" I would look into a seat cover that has either a gel or foam padding built in. I would say a "one size fits all" should fit but even better if you can find a seat cover that also allows you to personally adjust the seat cover fit.

the cushioning on the chair i received isn't great. The edges are hard and cause some discomfort on the backside of where i sit. If they've updated the cushioning in the last two months, you may be in better luck than me.

My husband is 6 foot tall, but uses the cushion because of his bad hip. So I guess it really depends on how cushy you need it. I am 5'3 myself and would probably just order the 4." He does like the cushion and we take it where he has to sit in low seats, theaters, etc. that don't have much height or padding. So, if you have really low seats you sit in and are using the cushion to add extra height for sitting and or more cushy on the tushy then maybe order the 6" one. I don't know, really is lifestyle and how much cushion you need?

the one i got was a standard queen size. the sizes should be pretty standard, you can look them up on their website i guess. The mattress is good is all i can say :)

The seat depth I have not measured, but I can tell you this, I was disappointed in, I am a short person (5'1") and I don't sit back all the way on 99.99% couches so when I can sit back and wish I had a little more room to sit further back, I'd have to say it's NOT deep enough. Not enough room to really relax on it if you are laying down either, I'd say most would not be happy with the depth But Other than that it's a nice couch, looks nice, sits nice but a very stiff, formal sit.

Deluxe seats are definitely worth it. 330 is too small for two people. I also have a 370 which is what u need to seat two comfortably.

I think you may be unhappy with it. My seat measures 10-3/4" x 8-1/2". It fits perfect on the long length but hangs over on the width just a bit. I think you may find it too large. Hope this helps.

I don't know if there is a way to replace the seat. I am on the thin side and find it extremely uncomfortable. I can literally feel it grinding into my pelvic bones. I am currently looking for a gel seat cover to put over it.

I bought a "Cloud Nine" gel seat. Found the original seat to be very uncomfortable!

I bought the bench for a gift, but I think it is just the same size as the very similar bench I own--and it is 16". I think that you will find 16" seats to be pretty standard.

Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here. I just bought the large, and I am 5'10, but I have a 30" inseam and it fits ok and I have even had to adjust the seat up quite a bit more than I was expecting. I added a diamondback pillowtop saddle, since I am new to biking also and the saddle that it comes with was killing me. If you are mechanically adept, you can assemble the bike easily but it is good to have a REAL bike shop look it over, the box store assembled mine and it ended up scratched, with under inflated tires, the brakes squeaked, handle bars were not aligned properly, and the deraillers needed adjustment Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here.

The seat is 20" x 20". My advice...Don't buy this chair. It is very uncomfortable. I am 5'7" 140 lbs. I HATE this chair.

Seat? A 9. Back? A 7. The back is soft, but a bit upright. I like that myself. Some people have told me that they didn't, however.

the seat is hard metal like the back of the chair. it's a very comfortable chair though, and you could put a cushion on it if you want a softer seat. i love the chair

The seat I ordered is about 17" long. If your current seat is 18.5", I would think you need the elongated version.
