DMI 4" Toilet Seat Cushion

Very thick! Comfortable!

The product description for this ELEVATED TOILET SEAT are confusing at best and misleading at worst. IT WILL NOT ELEVATE a person off of the installed seat. IT IS ONLY A CUSHION. If you need something that provides lift off of the seat, THIS IS NOT THE PRODUCT for you. DO NOT BUY AS IT IS NOT RETURNABLE AND WILL JUST BECOME MORE LANDFILL. The cushion is weak also, there is little to no cushion although again it is falsely advertised as 4" of elevation. NOT TRUE>

This cushion is too soft. It sits high but collapses really low. Defeats the purpose of high rise.

I took a chance because this doesn’t have the greatest reviews but I am so thankful I bought this! I just had surgery and It made going to the bathroom much more comfortable and was so helpful. I’m still using it two weeks post op and will for a couple more months.

Edit: I think I may use this as a cushion for my work from home desk when I am more recovered. Since I am so tender after the surgery, this is not a practical option for the toilet or desk chair at this time.First, I figure I should identify that the product (I got the 4-inch cushion) just didn't fit my particular needs. IMO, that does not warrant a bad review. The 4 out of 5, is because I cannot return this unused item (though I get why they may not take it back). I would strongly recommend asking questions if you are not sure. I had to have my surgery the following day and didn't have enough time to do very thorough research.(Potential) PROS:- Much more firm than expected- Gives a lot of height if you are tall without discomfort- appeared to stay in place- Durable (well-made, doesn't seem to be flimsy)Cons:- non-returnable items- opening to the toilet is too small- did not flatten enough to feel confident I would not make a mess- doesn't seem practical for post-surgical use if you need a cushionThis product just didn't work for my situation. I just had surgery where I needed something soft. I took a chance based off of others' reviews saying it squished down too much. That is what I was looking for. Unfortunately, as someone else mentioned, the opening to the toilet was too small. I felt like because I was not flat enough, I was going to urinate all over the seat and potentially get some on myself.This MAY work for a male who can possibly aim more strategically while sitting, but not sure how it's might work for bowel movements without making a huge mess. I needed something post-surgical, but this was not it for me.I

UPDATE 2024I purchased another 4" toilet cushion last week. This time the cushion has no support at all. It is useless since as soon as I sit on it it deflates completely. I weigh around 105 lbs so it is not a weight issue.I am trying to return this item and it is a major hassle.Normally you go thru amazon and it is fine. This time you need to go thru the company website and you can't even reach them by phone.Only email. I can not use this item.It is sad because the one I purchased a few tears ago was excellent and they have been great. But not this one.I am very disappointed in the cushion.This pillow topper for the elongated toilet has helped me to get rid of my horrible pain in my lower butt, and down my leg to the side of my calf. I could not walk for months. I thought it might be from spending so much time on the toilet seat last year. I had a very bad year of IBS and was on the toilet a lot. That is when the pains came on. I went to Dr's, PT, even got shots. Nothing helped. Finally decided in June to try using this pillow. What could I lose?It is now Sept, and 85% of the butt pain, the leg pain has gone away. I am able to walk and do things I have not done since a year ago.I will say I am getting a new one because I think the foam is getting a bit too soft, and I don't want to take a chance of putting pressure on my sciatic nerve again which might bring back the pain.I weight 104lbs so if someone is heavy, I don't know how long the pillow will last. I have no problem ordering a second or third one if I never get that pain back.Each person will have to make up their own mind. It certainly has helped me.

I found that even though this item was not used, it could not be returned before the 30 day window of opportunity.For any normal sized person, this product is no made of dense enough foam to support the weight. It flattens to maybe an inch height when on the toilet seat.

I never before realized how low to the ground our toilets at home were until I returned from the hospital with our new baby. Immediately I was searching online for something to ease my pain and make it easier to go to the bathroom solo. The cushioning is comfortable but strong and supportive; I’m a larger woman so while I did sink a bit it still gave me the height I was looking for. It does narrow your “target” somewhat, so I kept wet wipes nearby for spot cleaning as needed. My partner wasn’t a big fan since he couldn’t lift the seat with the cushion attached, and the Velcro is strong (thank goodness) so it wasn’t a simple matter to just remove when he wanted to use the toilet. Luckily we have another toilet upstairs, but it’s something to consider if you share a single toilet with a partner who stands to use the toilet.
