If you are wondering about the firmness of the cushion, it is VERY firm, which I like a lot. I bought a cushion once before that was much like the Tush Cush, but not as firm. So, if firmness is a must for you, this is it.
I ride on the NYC subway every morning and carry it with me to work everyday. It's very durable and can take the wear and tear of traveling constantly.
Fantastic product! Highly recommend it! Look no further for a great cushion!
The cutout on the backside is really large. I would actually prefer a cushion with no cutout, or maybe a cutout in the middle to help with air circulation. As it is, my tailbone area is rather cold now, for no good reason. I didn't need the tailbone cutout - I got this pillow for the wedge shape since I have hip problems and my chair didn't have enough cushioning. I had hoped the cutout would be a useful feature, but it turns out to be more of a liability. Maybe Tush Cush could make a pillow with a smaller longer narrower cutout for women, or maybe one with no cutout at all.
The pillow is pretty firm, although it collapses more around the cutout, as would be expected near an edge. I weigh around 110 lb, so if you weigh more you will likely want the extra firm cushion. Also - my hips aren't huge (~36" around) and this pillow's width is just the right size. If you have large hips and want the pillow to not disappear under you when you sit down, you might want a larger size pillow.
Update: The cutout has become very annoying. It requires precise positioning to not have one hip sink into the hole. Even then, the hole is too large and I sink into it, as the foam is easily compressed near the edge. I really wish this had no cutout.
Update II: I've reduced my rating, and decided no one should buy this cushion unless it is for very short term use (<30min). The cushion feels great at first, but turns to mush rapidly. The extra firm version is probably a better choice.
Update III: A year after purchase I've reduced the star rating to 2 stars. I find it impossible to sit on this cushion without one hip or the other sinking into the hole. This defeats the purpose of an ergonomic cushion completely - one hipbone in a hole is not ergonomic. Also I like the material even less than before - it's hard enough to cut off my circulation, but not hard enough to prevent collapse around the hole. I'm looking into buying a natural latex wedge cushion with no cutout. I recommend avoiding this pillow unless you have a serious need for a tailbone cutout and/or have extremely wide-set hip bones
Update IV (august 2014): I've downgraded the rating to 1 star. There is no hope for this cushion. The hole is way too large, and the foam collapses way too much. Additionally, I've learned about flame retardants in foam and this cushion has the CA Technical Bulletin 117 tag. This means the cushion is full of toxic flame retardants. The law was repealed recently due to a preponderance of evidence of the toxicity of these flame retardants. (some searching online will bring up various articles) Hopefully in the future all cushions and furniture will be free of these toxic flame retardants. In the meantime I am discarding this pillow, and everything else I have with the 117 tag.
This cushion really does relieve the pressure normally placed near your tailbone area, because you place your bottom on it so that the hole in the cushion is where your tailbone is. Ever since my back surgery, when I'm having lower back pain, I take care to sit on this. In just the past few weeks, my back is been nagging me again.
I have had to make several long car trips over the past week, and I noticed it's aggravating my lower back. This is silly on my part, but I brought the cushion with me to sit on at various events, but I didn't sit on it during the car ride. Stupid! Yesterday I had to take another trip of about 6 hours total in the car and sitting in a doctor's office for another 2 hours or so. I sat on the cushion the hole time and boy, did it really help me out! My back was feeling much better and you can just feel it relieve the pressure.
The built in handle is also handle for carrying around.
The only drawback is that, in my opinion, it's priced a bit high for what it is. But then again, what is your comfort worth? Certainly $50 or less.
