Is it contoured enough to allow one to sit and not have the stays did into the thighs? Are these stays metal or plastic?

I've been using this support for about a year now. I have to sit for hours while working and have had no problem with the stays at all. On the contrary, they provide a good amount of support without being uncomfortable. This support fits well under clothing too. Stays appear to be enamel covered metal.

Yes, you can sit in it and it does not dig into the thighs. I am not short-waisted so it fits well. I think stays are coated metal.

The stays are nowhere near your thighs. I am not sure what the stays are made of. I will say that I wear this belt for a 12 hour nursing shift which involves, lifting, bending, squatting, etc. and have absolutely no discomfort at all.

Actually, the brace remains quite stable. I purchased these because I had tried the stretchy type, but soon discovered that they slipped down and, making them even more uncomfortable, they 'rolled' up across the back and even toward the front of the leg. The type you inquire about have a smooth top and bottom, and stabilizing supports on the sides hold the brace in position during activities.

The metal bar next is used as a leg rest sometimes by the toddler or you can push it back and it won't hit the leg. Our child never complained about being uncomfortable and we felt the seat was more roomy as compared the Vista.

They are contoured quite well yet are made more comfortable with the cushions supplied with them. They are cast aluminum and quite sturdy. Easy to put together, once the first side is attached. I think you would be quite satisfied with them.

They are metal. Good for leg exercises squats, curls etc. heavy for running, basketball etc.

There are no metal springs in this seat. The cushion action is provided by a synthetic elastomer material. This material is designed to collapse and spring back. It provides adequate protection when hitting bumps. If you are looking for something more than this, you might want to consider a shock absorbing seat post. I understand that some of them have adjustments. This seat provides more than you will need if cycling on pavement and going down curbs/driveways etc., I have three of these seats on our bikes now and we are happy with the price and performance.

I ordered 2 different foot rest. I did not keep tjis one. I kept the other. The other, don't remember brand is of a plastic and foot rest area is very cushioned. I've been using it ever since I purchased it!

Hard plastic cast to appear metallic. I have had no issues with this chair. Has held up very well to regular use by large family.

They're plastic. We really like it though, it's pretty comfortable and looks good. I have to say the material is pretty resistant because I have a small yorkie whom is always getting on top of the couch and there's not a scratch on it. The only problem is that delivery was pretty lengthy almost three weeks and they do not set it up for you which could be a little inconvenient if you live in a smaller place.

The seat cushion is firm but I find it to be acceptable. The metal back can become uncomfortable after prolonged sitting.

The backrest is plastic coated steel, not particularly comfortable but completely satisfactory. When I compared this table to the professional model at my therapists, I found my table to be adequate. You could spend a lot more for a "professional" model but you would not be that far ahead.

If you mean the seat base or cushion frame YES it is molded plastic. The lower part that the seat sits on is all metal. I've purchased several seats over the years and this one is very impressive. I don't think you'll be disappointed with it.

There are two stays that you put in the upper section. One set is metal for firm support and the other is plastic for flexible support.

My husband uses this all the time. It is hard enough to keep its shape for several months now, but is comfortable enough to sleep with every day. He has not had any problems with circulation being cut off. There is a slanted edge in front for your thighs to rest on. The shape seems really to fit well for us.

Yes, there is a plastic type edging around the circumference of the metal base. Ours sit on wooden floors and we have had no problem with scratches. Be advised that we do our best not to slide the stools when we move them.

You can feel the zippers but they don't irritate my legs like one would think. I wore these on a 3 day hike and they are comfortable but they don't hold their shape at all. They stretched out a lot. I'd suggest day use only and not necessarily hikes for these.

They are plastic designed to look like wicker, so yes to all weather. The frame is also plastic, no iron, and it's all one piece that easily snaps into place. They look nice and are comfortable, but you'll want a thick towel or pad if you're sitting for long. I really like them.
