I have this cushion and have trouble getting on it because I cannot "scoot" with the cover it came with. Would the nylon cover help me slide across the seat?

Yes, I can show you a cover that is a little easier to slide on that is listed here on Amazon. It's called the SafetySure CarEase Transfer Slide. It's 22" L x 18" W. It has two ratings right now. One is good and one isn't. However, we have this and it is a bit slippery and may be the help you need to slide yourself across the Roho. It can slide over the roho (like a pillow case) yet it's open on both ends. If you want more details on this, you can also find it at usmedicalstore.com. If you're going to ride with this cover on while you're riding in the car, you may want to put something underneath it to keep the "bottom" of the cushion from sliding out from under you. My father's doctor recommended that we "don't" use the cushion cover that came with the Roho as it is too thick and can cause pressure sores because of the stiffness and thickness of the Roho cover that comes with the Roho. Do you have anyone who can help you slide onto your cushion? I know these are a bit hard to slide on because of the depth of the cushion.

may be is the type of cover you have, or you are a little bit unstable while sitting. I order this same cushion for my patient some months back and he is doing fine with it. I suggest that you use cloth or fabric cover on it.

Mine came with the cover & straps, you couldn't use it without them. the straps are cheap looking but keep the cushion in place..

I don't know if it will work for you, but my legs were bigger than the slider and there was enough cushioning that it slid fine across my dining room floor!

The gel seat is fairly sticky without a cover. I would find a way to tie it or fasten it on. Good luck!

Nope. I just tried it. I have the faux leather version with the black spine. The cover has no grip so it just slips and falls flat.

We had a similar problem. I don't know about a cushioned pillow. My husband put his knee on the last 1/3 of the pad so that his wound (between his knee and ankle) did not touch the pad of the scooter. You could try that or put a folded towel of it to act as a cushion.

From my experience, you will only be provided this "improved cushion" after you have received the original cushion and then contact the seller with a complaint that the seat is not comfortable. They did send out a new seat at no cost to me, but I have yet to try and pry the old one off and put the new one on.

I have not. I picked up a pack of 4 seat cushions at Walmart from the fabric/sewing isle and placed them under the original seat cushion. It has worked for about 6 months, but it is time to replace them again or find something better. I have spent many a long night sitting up in this rocker with my child and due to the poor cushioning my lower back is having issues. In my opinion.....There is just not enough cushioning or lumbar support for those long nights....

It doesn't for me. The bottom cushion is very stiff though. I did not know that when I bought it. But, it works really well for me. I'm happy with it.

Since a metal surface would tend to make it easier for any cushion to slide (these don't have ties on the back corners), you could simply cut a piece of rug grip and place it between the metal & the cushion to prevent any movement. I hope this answer is helpful!

It is very slippery. Great cushion, but I have seen it shoot out of a chair that didn't have arms on it to hold it in place.

Once you are seated, it does not move around. Getting onto the chair from the side (I use the Drive lightweight chair), it will shift a bit, but once put back in place, it stays there. Because the cushion has some weight to it, it stays in place much better than others I've used in the past.

No this is not slippery, but will move on the seat when you would like it to stay in place. It is good for a quick cover.

On my chair, the cushion slides down; I have hooked it through one of the bottom holes in the frame so it doesn't slide off, & I have to pull the cushion up every time I sit in it. The design could definitely be improved, but it is a comfy chair, worth the price.

No. The bottom side of the cushion is a textured surface that tends to grip the seat and it is heavy so movement is minimized. You will experience some small movement occasionally but much less than any other cushion I've tried.

I have the standard beige cushion covers...they are not overly stiff...I don't have anything to compare it to though

My father-in-law is over 100 years old and also had a sore on his bottom. This cushion has helped tremendously. However, he finds it hard to sit without slipping toward the front of the chair and has to keep hitching himself back up. I have wrapped the cushion with a towel to help the slipperyness, but just did it today, so don't know how well it will work. Pillow is good, though.
