Excellent Value, Very Comfortable
At the time of this review, this saddle was shown at a price of $19.99, let's call it a $20 saddle. It would not be a 5 star saddle if it was $50 or $100, but at $20, it is a 5 star saddle. It's basically a plastic frame with padding and a cover, but it is shaped perfectly. The concave shape is form fitting for the typical bottom, and even though the padding is rather thin and firm, the fit of it distributes one's weight nicely. The saddle comes with the typical mounting hardware you'd expect to fit it to an inexpensive, plain, round topped saddle stem, and this is removable to allow installation by rails to a more expensive integrated clamp type stem. The prostate relief channel is very wide and deep, making this a good choice for older men who need that kind of thing. It does amuse me when manufacturers tip their hand and reveal that they know nothing about the products they are knocking off by calling the relief channel a vent. While this manufacturer appears to be among those who copy a popular design without knowing why the saddle is designed that way, I must say that this design is very good. The saddle is advertised as having "dual shock absorbing balls," but I would warn potential buyers it does not have the kind of truly shock absorbing elastomeric inserts that it is copying. It's a very firm seat with no appreciable shock absorption in those "balls." They are hard plastic like the rest of the saddle frame. So - my honest review is this is a fabulous $20 saddle. It has thin but well shaped padding that will provide excellent comfort on smooth riding surfaces, but little to no shock protection. If you want that, you need to mount it on a shock absorbing stem - however, if you shift your weight to your legs when hitting bumps, you don't need it. The first thing to wear out on a seat like this is the cover. This one appears to be of high quality, and I think it will do well since this saddle does not have real deep padding. (The thicker the padding, the more stretch and stress on cover materials.) The star features here are the form fitting shape which helps to distribute your weight, the thin but effective padding which is aided by the form fitting shape and which will probably mean longer cover life, and the excellent prostate relief channel. The claim of shock absorption is bogus but forgivable at this price point. The claim of ventilation is just silly. In my estimation this a saddle is as good as any you'd find at twice the price at wallyworld or your lbs. I'm going to pick up another one myself.

Didn’t fit my bike but fit a different one
A little disappointment as maybe I just didnt understand the instructions when it came. However, I picked this up for my outdoor Trek bike and as soon as I opened the instructions - the instructions stated it was only for exercise bikes! I went and looked at my bike anyways, and of course, it will not work. I have a lever you pull out to adjust the seat. You lift the seat up and down and the tighten that lever back into place. I am explaining this in case I did something wrong. Frustrated and confused, I just gave up trying to install it.Later that day my teenager came home and I was explaining to him how it wouldn’t work for my bike. (I really wanted a new one for my bike as my seat is cracked, etc) He took one look at it and said “I think it will work for mine.” He went outside and put it on his Schwinn Mountain Bike in about 5 min. Man, am I jealous. So, of course I took his bike around for a spin just to get a feel of it. Wow, the seat is super comfy and works perfect for my big butt and mother hips. For once, I felt comfortable on a bike. I am hoping in the future I can get a new seat for my Trek bike, but I am happy to report this is working well on our other bike.6/10 would recommend because I felt like the instructions were deceptive with the statement that it was for exercise bikes only. This easily confused me and I gave up instantly thinking I had ordered the wrong product.10/10 recommend for comfort if you can get it installed on your bike.

Comfortable addition for an exercise bicycle
I have a bicycle set up as a stationary bike for exercise. The standard thin(-ish) seat "works", but is not comfortable for a lot of basic sitting and peddling. When biking down the road it's fine, but for use as a stationary bike, this saddle is much better. It's good and wide making it comfortable to sit on for a long time.

Well made, comfortable seat. Universal fit for conventional seat posts only.
I love gel seats and have used the traditional narrower anatomic gel seats on my road and mountain bike for many years. This was intended for my exercise bike, which has a really uncomfortable seat and, as it turns out, does not have the conventional seat post mount this seat needs - it has a sliding rail instead, for back and forth adjustment. So I am instead using it on my mountain bike, since I've gotten older, and want a slower and slightly more comfortable ride. This seat is very comfortable and much nicer than similarly priced seats. It's wide enough in the back and narrow enough in the front.It is comfortable for women as well as men (as several men have noted in other reviews), since the "relief channel" reduces the pressure on everyone's delicate parts, not just men's. The back is tailored somewhat to give a more anatomical fit (see photo). It probably would not be suitable for 100 miles of hard riding, but will be perfect for my casual, comfy ride to work and around the neighborhood.

Not as cushy as hoped
For $20 bike seat it is not bad and definitely an improvement over the standard bike seat that comes with most bikes. I do wish the cushion was a bit thicker and softer. Will be fine for short bike rides but extended ones you will start to notice the difference in cushion.

Super comfortable seat at a great price!
As I get older, I find myself wanting a more comfortable saddle more and more. I understand the trade off in terms of proper riding posture, but feel like it was a compromise I was now willing to make. To that end, this thing hit the spot perfectly. The front of the seat was narrow enough that I could still comfortably crank down on the pedals when needed, but the wide width on the back helped relieve pressure on the sensitive regions quite a bit. The back end cups each cheek really well, and the being cushier than the original saddle, helps soreness a lot. I’m not sure how much the rubber balls are doing, but it has to be better than my old hard mounted seat. I didn’t need a lot of the included mounting hardware, as I used the rails to attach to my post, but it’s nice that it included the hardware along with the extra wrench and Allen keys.The seat is attractive and fantastically priced. I would strongly recommend it!
