Customers say
Customers like the comfort, quality and stability of the rowing machine cushion. For example, they mention it provides more cushion and support than any seat pad, it holds up really well and it doesn’t slip around. Customers are also satisfied with ease of use, and appearance. That said, opinions are mixed on thickness and value.

Outstanding product and seller, well done!
I have to say I am extremely impressed with this product on two levels.First, the product itself is near perfect for what it is designed to be used for. I purchased this to use on a Concept 2 Model D fitted with an EndureRow seat.ÂÂ

Fits the Fitness Reality 3000WR water rower seat
I got this just in case the seat on the 3000WR was “too hard”. It is not – but I have used the seat. Seems like is should last a while. It is fairly thick and cushiony. I have resorted to rowing without it at least for now. For the price, it was OK to have it if I wanted it, but wanting it and not having it could have been temporarily problematic. Seems well made and the rubber dots on the bottom keep it secure on the rower seat (there are no straps on the rower seat or the cushion. The rubber dots do a fine job of keeping the cushion in place.

Excellent!
What a difference this cushion makes.I love the rowing machine but seat uncomfortable after a short time.Real padding with this cushion and the backing crips the seat but is easy to remove

Terrible experience for a bad item..
Bought this rowing.seat due to the high ratings. I’m not sure what kind of machine those who left high ratings were using but there are two major problems. One, the seat is way too thick to use on a rowing machine and keep good form. Second, it just sits on top of the seat without any method to secure it in place and slides back when doing any powerful strokes.To make it even a worse experience allegedly the seller takes 30 days to issue a refund. Nor was I given the option to return the item using the same way I bought it. I had to find a UPS Store and go miles out of my way to return it. Then with multiple calls to Amazon I was given different information on every call and after representatives claiming the issue had been refunded I found out it that it actually had not been refunded at all. Ended up having to call my bank to reverse the charges.Don’t buy anything from this seller.

Item as described
The pad fits and stays in place while rowing. For me personally it is too thick. I’ve elevated too high and do not like the way I’m positioned while using it. Probably works for some people and all about preference.

Well made but unsuitable for serious exercise
The rowing cushion is well made and includes rubber dots on the bottom that mostly keep it from sliding around while I row.The problem with the cushion is the memory foam.Five minutes into a serious workout, the memory foam squished down to where it provided neither comfort nor support.But, as I said, the cushion is well made. It includes a zipper so the foam can be removed. The foam is in two layers; a half inch of neoprene and about two inches of memory foam. One quick trip to JoAnn’s Fabrics and I replaced the memory foam with expanded urethane fiber on top of the neoprene. The cushion now works great!

A necessity for long distance rows!
This seat provides ample cushioning for long row or erg sessions. It doesn’t lose it’s effect and maintains a nice balance between the seat and my ‘sit bones.’ I’ve used this on both my Concept 2 erg and my Hudson rowing shell and it works equally well. I normally row/erg at least 10 meters [1k] and as I’ve aged, I’ve noticed that I’m prone to pressure points and even an abrasion now ‘n then. There are a group of us that discovered this pad and we’re all using it at our rowing club. Some folks have hip/joint issues and they’ve indicated that this makes all the difference, helping them maintain contact with their seat without any pain to their hip joint during long rows. Others have stated that it makes rowing long distances far more pleasant. As for me, I’m a lightweight and it has helped me keep my focus on my stroke, rather than focusing on the discomfort that can come with rowing long distances. Finally, several of us have noticed that despite the cushioning, it doesn’t elevate us too much, so we’re not off center in the boat.Honestly, for me and my rowing companions, this is a great product and has truly made difference both on and off the water. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another and may do just that–keeping one on my erg and the other in my boat. Definitely worth the price. Lightweight, not too large to stuff into my rowing bag, and easy to keep clean [just wipe with a damp cloth]. This makes those long rows a pleasure!

Works great! So much better than a hard plastic seat, thank you

Very comfortable seat to place on top of indoor rowing seat, certainly helps with the uncomfortable original seat and for those longer rowing sessions.

I can now row for 30 minutes comfortably with this cushion. I have to stop at 15 without it.
Dave –
Fits perfectly and made my 40 minute rowing workout extremely comfortable. It’s a necessity for the Concept 2 Rower.

I love rowing, I’ve rowed on water and am just getting into routinely rowing on a machine, but I have always found the seats so painful, I’ve struggled to do a decent workout because of bottom pain, no matter how I adjusted myself or what padding (a fleece jacket or something in desparation) I’ve used. I bought this and IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY. There are only a few reviews in the UK, but I want to add to them! It’s made rowing a joy. You sit on it, it doesn’t slide off or around or make you feel unstable in any way. You sit on it, you row. And row. And row. I even got complimented on my rowing last time I went on the machine, and it’s down to being comfortable and relaxed due to this seat. How it would work in an actual boat – I don’t know – it should work well, but definitely on a machine – it’s fab.
