We’ve whittled them down to the best in each category along with the best cushions for under $100, for ulcer prevention, and for positioning but here it is folks - our picks for the 5 best wheelchair cushions overall. Starting us off at number five is the surprisingly affordable Super Soft Econo Gel Wheelchair Cushion from Skil-Care, which combines a soft foam exterior with a large gel bladder that spans the entirety of the cushion. A waterfall front and soft, easy to clean cover round out The Super Soft Econo Gel Wheelchair Cushion, which at just $60 won our pick for the best value of ANY wheelchair cushion we tested. Coming in stylishly at number four is the Curve wheelchair cushion from The Comfort Company. With positioning front and center, the Curve’s tapered leg abductors get wider towards the back of the cushion to support your hips, a medial thigh separator helps support an upright posture, and a mild anti-thrust shelf provides additional stability. Two different fantastic cover options from the Comfort Company and a price tag of $60 made the Curve wheelchair cushion our pick for the best value in the foam category. Creeping up in price at number three is the Geo-Matt Contour wheelchair cushion from Span America, with its every detail designed to maximize pressure reduction and skin protection. Composed of 72 independently moving supportive foam cells, the Geo-Matt Contour conforms to your every move while the high density contoured foam base is lightly curved on the bottom to prevent sagging in sling wheelchairs, then contoured on the top to relieve pressure on your legs and encourage an upright posture. An incontinence proof cover with a super soft low-shear top wraps up the well constructed Geo-matt Contour wheelchair cushion which, at just under $100 became our pick for the best wheelchair cushion in the foam category. Things start getting jelly at number two with the Maxx Gel wheelchair cushion from The Comfort Company. Four layers of foam provide the stability, structure, and basic comfort of the Maxx Gel - including a super soft top layer, contoured positioning middle layer, and a pelvic well filled with a proprietary gel insert that conforms to your pelvis and reduces pressure on any bony prominences. Add to that The Comfort Company’s stylish cover options and you’ve got a pressure reducing, ulcer-avoiding, beast of a wheelchair cushion. At around $250, the Maxx Gel wheelchair cushion is our pick for the very best wheelchair cushion in the gel category. And finally, our pick for the best wheelchair cushion out of every single category goes to the ROHO Contour Select wheelchair cushion which takes modern air technology to new heights. First, the cushion is divided into 4 quadrants that can each be inflated to different levels of tension while the complex-sounding but simple to operate ISOFLO Memory Control Unit lets you easily adjust air distribution between them. The individual air cells then distribute pressure evenly within each quadrant to totally immerse your posterior. Finally, the cells are contoured to keep your pelvis centered and stable in an upright, aligned position. An incredible cover and a price of just over $350 wrap up the ROHO Contour Select Wheelchair Cushion in a package that not only dominated the air category but became our pick for the best wheelchair cushion overall. So there you have it, our picks for the five best wheelchair cushions. But choosing the right wheelchair cushion is a deeply personal decision so be sure to check out our other reviews and buying guides for more information so that you can make the best choice for your wheelchair cushion.
