Crazy good, crazy expensive
By wutzthedeal
While I like to factor cost into my reviews, this one was an exception. Normally, when something is this expensive for a product that I believe can be made for less than half of the price, I would have to take a star or two off. But, I'm not entirely sure of the cost of making these so I can't penalize them for that. If I find out later that they are just banking on this because it's really the only thing of it's kind, I'll probably downgrade my rating.Now, on to the review:Amazing. Marvelous. Earth-shatteringly comfortable. On my 49cc scooter, my seat was relatively cushioned but after 10 or 12 miles on it, you could feel the "burn." With this, once you get your air adjusted right, you'll feel no more burn and you can ride pretty much indefinitely. I can now ride for hours and hours--haven't ridden more than 4 hours but at the end of that 4 hours, I felt absolutely fine on the bottom parts. I was secretly hoping that this would also help my back (severe arthritis in lumbar spine) but it didn't. However, they don't claim to fix your back--this product does exactly what it claims it will do and it does so in dominant fashion. If you've inflated it properly, you'll only be about 1/8th of an inch off of your seat; what it does is use the entire surface area of your bum to withstand the pressure, rather than the usual areas of the ischial bones (the two bones that protrude from your butt--one on each side) AND the coccyx (tailbone). Those three areas can really take a beating as the bones are essentially trying to push their way into and through your flesh when you apply the pressure that you upper body weight will apply. This seat cushion spreads that load-bearing area all the way out, around your whole butt and even (depending on your cushion size and your size) your upper thighs.I read somewhere that Airhawks were first designed for wheelchair-bound people and/or paralyzed people to keep them from getting bed sores or actually having the ischial bones poke all the way through the skin by dispersing that load that is usually on them and the coccyx. Whether it's true or not, I have heard directly from people who are in wheelchairs and swear by ROHO products (the company that makes the Airhawk and other types of cushions for different environments). Yes, I think it's expensive, and I'm guessing that it should only cost half of what it does cost and that we are at the mercy of no good competition to keep prices lower, but this product scores a perfect 10/10 for doing what it says it will do, durability, and simplicity. I will use mine mostly on my scooter, but I'll take it anywhere else, too (car, stadium bleachers, while I'm on my lawn mower... anywhere).

I wasn't sure this would be comfy, but once you are used to it being there, the improvement in ride comfort is very noticeable.
