Wheelchair seat cushions

Last updated: 5 October 2026 · Total: 16 products

A cushion spreads body weight, steadies the pelvis and affects comfort over a whole day. Air cushions such as the ROHO Quadtro Select and Vicair Adjuster O2 let the body sink into connected or separate air cells. Air-foam designs like the VARILITE Evolution Wave combine foam with an air valve. Honeycomb cushions, for instance the Supracor Stimulite Classic, are ventilated and washable. Others pair a shaped foam base with a fluid or gel pad, and plain foam remains the lightest and simplest choice. For anyone at risk of pressure injury, selection and fitting are done with a clinician.

How to choose

  • Order the cushion to the seat width and depth of the chair, not to your clothing size.
  • Weigh up maintenance: air cushions need regular pressure checks, while foam and honeycomb need almost none.
  • Allow for cushion thickness, because it raises seat height and changes footrest, armrest and table clearance.
  • Ask about cover options, since incontinence-resistant and breathable covers behave very differently.

    How to measure yourself for a wheelchair

    A few body measurements, a firm tape and a helper are enough to prepare for a wheelchair order. Here is how to take each one and what it becomes.

Common questions

How often should a wheelchair cushion be replaced?

It depends on the material and use. Foam compresses over time and loses support, air cushions can develop leaks, and gel can shift. Check the cushion regularly and replace it when it no longer holds its shape.

How do I check the inflation of an air cushion?

Follow the maker's instructions. A common method is to sit on the cushion and slide a hand under the lowest bony point to confirm a small gap of air remains before the base.
