AmazonBasics Enhanced Cushion Office Chair Reviews Summary

Comfort and Support

Pros:

• "The gel also provides a cooling relief to help you stay comfortable."
• "It is firm but moldable memory foam."
• "Provides good back and bottom support."
• "The Seat Cushion is just so lovely for my tailbone."
• "This cushion is great for support and has helped with back pain from long hours at my desk."
• "The memory foam is very comfortable and flexible and there is a breathable mesh on both pieces which is very useful when I am going to sit and work for a long time."
• "Both cushions are very comfortable and provide great support."

Cons:

• "There's no support in the cushion so when I sit on it, the cushion goes completely flat."
• "The seat cushion is not very good. I've used it every day for work for 3ish months and my butt does numb multiple times per day."
• "But, a few days later, it just squeezes down with me. No real change in my tailbone pain from sitting."
• "The back support seems worthy but the seat support doesn't give much support as squishes down to the chair."
• "It doesn't lift me up and it doesn't provide much cushion at all."
• "The seat and cushion are mushy. I didn't find that they forced my back to remain straight and allowed me to sink in."
• "It collapses underneath me very quickly and ends up adding very little extra cushion."

Material Quality

Pros:

• "The stitching and seams all have a high quality finish and the elastic and buckle closures are very durable."
• "Quality material good stitching."
• "The fabric is black and feels like it will be easy to spot clean."
• "They are made very well with a breathable material."
• "Good build quality and materials. Durable, well-made pillow."
• "The cover is removable, washable and sturdy."
• "Each piece has a zipper on the cover so you can clean the cover."

Cons:

• "The cushion came with small tear."
• "If it wasn't so moldy, I'd love this. However, the cushion reeks of mold when squeezed."
• "The covers are so hard and abrasive there is no way a person can sit on this seat and back support for very long."
• "It isn't squishy or cushiony like a gel topper, and it smashes down pretty flat within ten or fifteen minutes of use."
• "The only drawback that I personally found with it, is that after a while it felt a little warm to sit on."
• "It's too thick and it causes me back pain."
• "This is a trash piece of crap !!!"

Design and Fit

Pros:

• "The bottom surface is non-skid material."
• "It has the 2 extra straps which can lengthen the main straps so you could put this even on the biggest chairs."
• "This U-shape is a much better contour to fit a person’s backside, and this particular one is very comfortable."
• "Definitely helps with your posture and makes sitting down for hrs a bit more comfortable."
• "The support is couple of inches higher and hence supported more of the lower back - very comfortable."
• "The pad is 18” x 14” x 2-1/2” and should fit almost any chair."
• "Designed to accommodate natural body lines."

Cons:

• "The old one kept falling through the gap at the back of the seat, which meant a lot of adjusting and not a great fit at times."
• "It's a bit small for my chair."
• "Unless you want to look taller in front of your boss, I wouldn’t recommend this seat."
• "It’s too thick. I feel like I’m sitting on a booster seat."
• "It is also quite a bit smaller in depth from the car seat."
• "The only complaint I have is I wish the cushion was a bit larger."
• "It's shaped like a specific body, with contours and cutouts that might not match your body."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "Why spend $50+ when this one does the trick for a fraction of the price?"

• "This works well at a good price and I would recommend this for anyone who needs this type of cushion."

• "More comfortable than a more expensive seat cushion I use in a different chair."
• "Overall, this is a great set if you sit most of the day. I would highly recommend!"
• "I am again happy with another Amazon Basics product!"

Cons:

• "Unfortunately, this AmazonBasics 2-piece Seat Cushion & Lumbar Support Set didn't transform my old chair into something that was actually comfortable."
• "To start with delivery was very late I have been given time for day few times but no show and the product is not worth waiting in itself so don't recommend."
• "This is one of the most uncomfortable and horrific things I've ever sat on. I have been in pain for days since the product arrived and I started using it."
• "I really question the longevity of this product."
• "I am disappointed in this cushion. I would not order this again. Rating two stars."
• "Bought this thinking it was like other memory gel seat cushions: it’s extremely thin."
• "The gentleman explaining how to use the seat cushion is incorrect! It’s opposite of what he explains."
