Repose - Pressure Relieving Contur Acute Riser Recliner Chair Overlay & Pump - Inflatable Pressure Redistribution Cushion for Recliner Chairs - Prevents Bed Sores & Pressure Ulcers

Vert expensive

Bought this on the recommendation of a nurse. Can only assume she's never seen it before, because it is cheap flimsy plastic that feels like it might burst at any moment. As a person with chronic pain in my hands, enormous pump/casing was difficult to use. Sitting on the cushion was okay though I cant say it did much, and it is slidy. It does not come with a cover either, so bear in mind if you're buying for those who struggle to stay upright. When I tried to repack for return, I also found that it's incredibly difficult to deflate, even when trying to follow the weird symbol instructions on the tube. I couldnt get all of the air out and roll it the way it told me to. Honestly I can only assume the reason this costs so much is because somebody put money into a study to prove it helps. While other cushions cant say the same. My next stop is the Vive air cushion, which looks a lot sturdier and has recommendations from a bus driver in the reviews. My walking stick is from them and it's good quality, so if you were disappointed with this, I'd recommend having a look at that one (at the very least is has a case). Will update here when I have that one. Edit: Vive air pillow has now arrived. Quality is far superior. Feels like it was actually built to last. Standard hand pump and cover included. Certainly makes things marginally more comfortable to sit on, and the air will move encouraging blood flow. Plus it's only £30 at the moment instead of the £84 I paid for the repose.

I bought this as it was recommended by a friend who had seen people using it at the hospital she worked in. I am so glad I gave it a try as it really works for me and my very painful back., it also helps me get up from my chair. I did think it was a little on the pricey side but I now think it was well worth the money.

IS more comfortable than the NHS product we had. The edges are softer and the whole thing is softer and less harsh. Expensive for what it is but it does the job well. More supportive and more comfortable than just the chair.

Comes with pump to inflate initially and does require some topping up. Does the job itself meant to do, not quite arm chair seat size, could do to be a little larger avoid Gaia around the edge of chair

This is a great pressure reliever as a cushion or to lay on. Easy to inflate. With its own pump that it packs away into. Tough too, and it does not lose its air over time as some cushions do. Quality product

The pump was missing from the order so couldn’t use the pressure relieving overlay at all . Very annoying as I needed it for my mother’s discharge from Hospital as she is very unwell . Now have to arrange a return and reorder which will take several days .

This cushion is okay. I bought 2 for my elderly parents (aged 87 years) to help to prevent pressure sores. The cushions are a good size to fit on their average size armchairs but the plastic is slippy so they had to put them in cotton pillowcases to prevent keep sliding forward on them. They have said that they are comfortable but they don't hold the air for more than a few days before they need to be pumped up again. The cardboard tube pump supplied is big and bulky and too awkward for my parents to use due to it's size. I think this item is overpriced - a plastic cushion, supplied with a bulky cardboard tube pump should not be nearly a £100 - an aid such as this that is designed to be used by elderly or unwell patients should be more affordable, for this reason I have only given 2 stars.

I am a quadriplegic. I sleep in my recliner this cushion has allowed me to be very comfortable I sleep well no aches or pains when I get up in the morning. I also like that it fits in my wheelchair. I also like that it is light and easy for me to move around. It is a bit expensive but worth the money.

Pumpe defekt !

Gran producto, eliminó una pequeña yaga que tenía mi suegro en el coxis y se siente mucho mas cómodo cuando tiene que estar muchas horas sentado debido a su escasa movilidad. Llevo 3 meses usándolo y resiste perfectamente a pesar de su aspecto que pudiera parecer frágil. El precio me parece exagerado

Nothing gave my daughter relief in the hospital icu after she got a saxral wound before getting her liver than this cushion. They were trailing it and anything else they tried made her cry in pain. This is the only cushion/seat that she could tolerate. We bought two more after we got home. We use them on the chairs, wheelchair and car.

I received the cover and the pump i did not receive the internal cushion !! Fraud 0 stars
