FAQs

Q: How do I choose the right size for my wheelchair?

A: Measure your wheelchair seat width and depth in inches. Select the cushion size that matches or is slightly smaller than your measurements to ensure proper fit without overhang.

Q: Can the gel bladder be removed for cleaning?

A: The gel bladder is integrated into the foam core and cannot be removed. Clean only the zippered outer cover, which can be hand washed and air dried separately.

Q: Will this cushion work with power wheelchairs?

A: Yes, the tie-closure system secures the cushion to both manual and power wheelchair frames. Ensure you select a size compatible with your chair's seat dimensions.

Q: How often should I replace the cushion?

A: Replace when gel bladder shows visible damage, foam compression doesn't recover after use, or cover develops tears. With proper care, expect 1-2 years of regular use.

Q: Does insurance cover this cushion?

A: Coverage varies by plan and medical necessity. Consult your insurance provider regarding reimbursement eligibility for wheelchair seating accessories and request documentation from your healthcare provider if required.
