Well from a 3rd party point of view ( I am NOT the person using this device, it's was purchased for my father) the seat is comfortable. Then again I'm an active 33 year old female. He is a 68 year old man and he says the seat is not that comfortable. He had a cast on and he did end up making a soar on his knee directly above where the cast ends and the knee laid on the cushion. I took a little while to heal since he had to keep using the knee walker to get around. The wheels are a good size, they are not too thin either. I holds my father's weight (200lbs) with no problem.

The seat is quite comfortable. The wheels are 10" wheels and work well in the grass and off pavement. The ride is very comfortable.

Seat is not very soft. It's contoured and it's purpose is to rest your knee/leg on it for support so it needs to be firm. As far as using it for a seat, I use it once in awhile to rest on but mainly I use it to get around the house, shopping and outdoors. The wheels are wide HD 10" in diameter. They are about twice as wide and much thicker than the usual knee walkers. I go on uneven grass (slowly), gravel and uneven concrete with no trouble. I LOVE IT!!

This is a knee walker. You place your leg and knee on the seat. It is very comfortable. I had foot surgery so my foot never rested on the seat. Wheels are approximately 10 inches in diameter. I thought it was the best of what is available, and all in all, I was delighted. Much easier to handle and turn than other knee walkers.

The seat is really comfortable. We've been really happy with this purchase and would highly recommend it. The tires are inflatable and are about 8" in diameter (about the size of inflatable wagon tires). Hope this helps

This isn't a seat at all. It is only a few inches wide and is meant to support a knee. The knee rest is filled with thick, comfortable padding. I used this to support my leg after I had surgery that required no weight on the operated foot for six weeks.The tires are wide and sturdy. The unit is able to navigate very well outdoors on the sturdy tires.My only complaint is the wide turning radius, which makes some indoor movements challenging.

The knee rest is comfortable,,the tires are like all terrain wheels like on a stroller, I liked this little knee scooter, it is easy to controll as long as you don't take corners too fast. The knee rest can be positioned 2 ways, it's a comfortable surface...it is not a seat.

I have sat on it for several hours and think it's great. The seat cushion is several inches thick. I would assume if your a heavier person, your not going to be as comfortable over longer periods of time because of the cushioning being compressed more then a lighter weighing person. The stool is well made and a great value.

No, it should be comfortable for you. Plus its somewhat adjustable with seat height and handlebar height. Ended up buying a bigger seat for a little more comfort.

Very comfortable. My kids love them, I make sure to fluff it up before i sit on it, it great especially if you have a foot rest. It actually looks just the the picture. So to answer the question, it would feel good on a bad back but I'd recommend a foot rest for a taller adult.

It is comfortable for me, is not much soft, but for what you think you want it with a few extra cushions would perfect !!

In spite of the great reviews on it, this seat has more padding, but not so much more that I am totally comfortable on my bike. It does feel more comfortable than the original one that felt like steel on my backside; however, please note that I weigh 105 lbs and my bike rides do not last longer than 30 minutes which are two factors that may affect one's comfort level. I hope this helps.

As seats of this type, I think it is comfortable. It is a little nicer than your basic seat. This is a nice bike.

The seat is about 15" in diameter, 4" thick (height of cushion). The padding is firm. Very comfortable.

Viki, this seat seams to be very comfortable for my daughter. She has transitioned well into it, and loves it! :)

The seat is very comfortable, and I haven't needed an additional cushion. Hope that helps! :)

Yes, it is very comfortable, but remember it will also raise you up an inch or two from the ground. I found myself straining to touch ground when I come to stop. Other than that I really like this seat for it's comfort. Good rideing

I find the seat quite comfortable w/o anything added. Think of a very firm hammock, if that helps.

It's very comfortable and soft. The cushions are a little thin but it still is comfortable. I have had two 14yr old boys sleeping on each end with sheets and pillows it is comparable to a nice bed. I just put the ottoman on the chaise side and then cover it all with a twin sheets, works well for company. Hope this helps. :)

I can't answer the question as asked..... But yes, it's pretty comfortable. I've spent many hours rocking/sleeping in it. I woukd buy it through sonewhere you can get an extended warranty though. We had some issues with bearings breaking.

Yes, the seat is nicely padded and quite comfortable. I ride for 30 minutes or so 4 to 5 times a week.

It's very comfortable! It's adjustable and it has a grip lock under the seat that keeps it firmly in place...My sister also bought this bike and everyone that has tried it loves it. :)

The seat has a little bit of padding. I would say that it is definitely comfortable enough to sit on for 10-30 minutes. Sorry it took me so long to reply!!! 'Tis the season!
