I've traveled for work for many years logging hundreds of thousands of airmiles. It wasn't until a few years ago I started to get severe coccyx pain after a couple of hours sitting in an airplane seat. I stopped traveling so much a couple of years ago but I do still fly from time to time. Last year I went on a vacation and after hour 2 of a 10-hour flight the pain was almost unbearable and with another 14-hour vacation flight next spring I decided to try this seat cushion out. I'm 5'9'', 170# so about average build.TESTING:I purchased the cushion and "broke it in" using my office chair for a couple of weeks. I found it comfortable even after sitting for about 2-hours so I took it on a short flight i had to take last week, 4-hours there and back.FINDINGS:I purposefully sat in my airplane seat for the 4-hours on the way there, not getting up to see how it would perform. Overall I will say that I did have a little bit of stiffness from just sitting but the coccyx pain was negligible. Perfect? No, but greatly improved. I would normally stand up after a couple of hours even on a short flight like this because I can't sit for extended time anyway. On the way back I sat for about 2-hours, got up and stretched and after sitting for the final 2-hours I had no real pain to mention.I wish I would have gotten this earlier!PROS:+ Comfortable enough for the most part.+ Good design short of going with a fully custom solution.+ Small enough to pack into a backpack.CONS:- There are vent holes but because of the materials used I did still get a bit "warm" while sitting on it.- It is a little stiff because of the materials used but I think that foam and gel is better for the long term. Gel is too hard and foam degrades too quickly.- There are better ways to carry it around.SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENTS:It's small enough to shove in a laptop bag and it does have a handle of sorts but would be better is maintaining the handle in the middle and coming up with an alternate way to carry it by strapping it to a bag on the outside, be that a secondary strapping design on the side of the cushion or a bag to put it in with a reinforced strap so it can be clipped to a bag strap using a carabiner. I'm going to try to find a mesh bag that will achieve that but the company might consider this improvement.OVERALL:4.5/5.

As advertised fits perfectly on airline seat.. Light weight fits perfectly in backpack..

After 5 months of use, looking for a different one for next vacation. It helps and easy to put in bag but it's rather thin. For what it cost, I wished that it was better quality.

Light and helpful for back pain. It is a gel type so not soft- just the way it should be. Easy to take to sport games or concerts. That’s a keeper.

This was the perfect size. It fits folded in my backpack and comfortably on an airplane seat. It made a 10 hour flight bearable for me. I only started getting tailbone pain after 9 hours. So worth it!

After only 16 months of use only when traveling (2-3X/year) the handle broke. Amazon will not replace , though it is defective. $70 was worth it for the great comfort the seat provides , but you need the handle to function to carry it!
