is the cushion gel filled

No, it is not gel filled. It is inflatable. They give you a small instrument by which you inflate it. This is why it is so terrific for a person who is really thin - those gel filled pads really hurt a person like this. This is the only thing that helped my mother; she had already had various cushions and sheepskin.

It is air filled and you can control how much air it has at any given time depending on your needs. It has a good pump and a valve to let air out. It is very well made and extremely comfortable cushion for an office chair, car seat or wheel chair. I use mine primarily in my car, sometimes to sit on and sometimes as a back cushion on long drives.

No. They are air pockets. As you fill it with air, each pocket expands. The secret is to use the minimum amount of air so it's soft. Too much air makes the cushion hard. It's similar to a bicycle tire.

NO! As I stated this cushion needs major improvements for the ultimate comfort in mind. Since it is too hard by itself, this cushion would greatly benefit from both top & bottom layers of thick latex memory foam as well as a strong but soft cloth cover! DO NOT BUY!

I bought two and have no problems with either. I haven't punctured the cushions so have no idea if the gel would leak out.

Not sure. The gel is layered between two pieces of foam that are glued together. It feels a little less firm at the very back of the cushion. It is a fairly deep cut-out, so I don't think the very back of it would be supporting anything. While sitting on it, I felt back there and I would say there are 2 to 4 inches unused. It is very comfortable.

No, not at all. I don't know what it's filled with but it's more like very light density fluffy stuff. It's not like a foam pad at all.

Yes, it does. Its just like the foudation gel, but a little thicker. I love it!

I don't know the answer to the questions, since I am using the gel cushion for only 2 continuous hours at the most and use it to relief discomfort. For longer use or to relieve greater pressure a thicker gel cushion may work better. I am pleased with how the 2 inch pad works for me.

This one doesnt claim gell filled? This is down alternative. The gell filled is more like memory foam type so if your looking for more of a memoery foam feel go gell if you want a pillow top feel fo this one.

no, it is a zip cushion cover, really nice. I bought it as a gift for my sister who is older and somewhat frail and sits alot. She loves it and it relives the pressure when is sitting.

Its down alternative. No gel like memory foam. Could be the new process which they coat the filling with gel to keep its shape,but no way to know for sure without ripping open. All I can say is very comfortable,like buying a pillowtop mattress

I am not sure what the cushion is filled with.... It seems like just a shaped foam pillow.

Not Gel... more like a soft rubber. The waffel bottom is what gives the "cushion" and they work fairly well for many patients except when they are too big for the shoe.

Personally, I think it's a nice cushion. I would say it's a little softer than memory foam. The gel is there to keep it more cooler than regular memory foam since that sometimes tends to soak in the heat and sweat. I absolutely love this purchase.

Yes...it is really comfortable and just the right amount of firm/cushion. We love this chair and can't beat the price! (we got the white one which looks cool too)

Hi I am happy with the seat. I use it for 9 hours every day. In my opinion The cushion is high density. Seat is very comfortable.

I don't know for sure, but I think the fluffy stuff you find in pillows is used in the cushion.
