An Adjustable Air Cushion for Long Hours in a Wheelchair
The Skil-Care Inflatable SquarePod Air Cushion is a wheelchair seat cushion built from 25 square air pods. Instead of a single block of foam, the pods spread body weight across the whole seating surface, and firmness can be adjusted with the included air pump to suit the user. It is designed for extended sitting and supports up to 500 lbs.
A low-shear, water-resistant cover flexes with the pods and conforms to the body. The cushion is 2.5 inches tall and comes in four sizes to match common wheelchair seat widths and depths. It ships partially inflated, ready for you to set the firmness before first use.

Product Specialist Insight: Choose the cushion size that matches the wheelchair’s seat, not the user’s hip measurement: measure the seat width between the armrests and the seat depth from the backrest to the front edge. Air cushions work best when they are neither too soft nor too firm, so after inflating, have the user sit and check that they are not resting on the seat underneath. Recheck the firmness regularly, since air pressure can change with temperature and altitude. A wheelchair seating specialist or therapist can help set the right firmness for each user.
