Customer Reviews of Obus Forme Gel Seat
Customer Review: Ask a man who owns one
Summary: 4 Stars
The Obus Forme Gel Seat can be a literal 'back saver'. Purchased this as a gift for a friend who is in and out of his car all day long (pizza delivery man). The Obus Forme Gel Seat is now with him in and out of the car. As soon as he finishes working he takes it out of his car and puts it on his favourite chair at home. Since he started using the Obus Forme Gel Seat he says he has no more back problems. Made in Canada by the Obus Forme company this is a well made device which should give you many years of service. The purchase price as it is available through Amazon's associate seller is excellent and even with the shipping cost added in it still beats most stores.Customer Review: Not very soft
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this for use in office on office chair. I wanted it as the chair I have while padded is pretty hard. When you read Gel Seat you figure it will be somewhat sort and conforming to your self.
This feels like a solid piece of foam, has no gel qualities and not very soft. I would not recommend it if you are looking for something to use to pad a seat and have gel qualities.
I should have returned it at once but made the error of disposing of the wrappings and the box. This is probably the first time I purchased something on Amazon that I was not happy with and am just going to give it to another worker and look for a true Gel Seat.
Customer Review: Don't Waste Your Money
Summary: 1 Stars
First of all the ad is completely misleading. It appears to be a formed cushion with a raised back and a seat that has a formed butt imprint. What you get is a flat cushion where nothing is raised anywhere and there is no form or shape. It is totally opposite from what you think you are getting. I used it anyway to see if it made any difference or if it was magically going to form to my rear. Needless to say, that didn't happen. I could have thrown any cushion in the chair and that would have served the same purpose. I'm not going to the trouble of sending it back but if I were Amazon, I'd take it off my website. Don't waste your money!Customer Review: Smell is Unbearable
Summary: 1 Stars
The cushion comes with an insert saying that the off-gassing is normal and will subside within two days. This is absolutely not true. I found no reduction in the truly offensive odor in a week. I even put it outdoors on the porch. Since I was looking for comfort, I tried putting the cushion into a plastic bag, just to try the feel. My advice to others would be to keep looking for an alternative to this product. There is nothing special about the design. It is not a fraction as comfortable as the pictures suggest, and the smell is not just obnoxious but probably wretchedly unhealthy. I returned it, at my expense, and received a refund.Customer Review: Good cushioning for the car
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this cushion because the seat in my car, while comfortable for a daily commute, is insufficiently padded for longer drives.
Obus Forme Gel Seat seems to be solving the problem nicely. The fact that it's fairly thin and flat is actually an advantage for me - with a thicker cushion, I'm sure my head would be hitting the roof. I thought I would need to trim the edges to make it fit in the car seat, but again, because it's thin, it turned out to be just fine as it was.
I'm taking one star off because the cushion has an unpleasant smell. I hope it will fade in time.
