No Sweat!

Howdy All,
I have a major perspiration problem and my back always gets soaked when I drive for more than an hour or two.

I remember from loooooong ago the seat cushions that cabbies used that were made out of wire so there was an air space behind and below them that allowed circulation of fresh air.

If anyone knows where I might be able to buy one of these I would be very grateful for pointers.

Thanks,
Alex

Back Rests & Seat Cushions - Arctic Cool Wire Spring Seat Cushion

Like that one, perhaps???

Or, if you want to go top-dollar for more comfort...

http://www.brookstone.com/sl/product...at-topper.html

however the reviews aren't so positive...seems like a product that has a built-in market...

I ordered one of the Arctic Cool cushions, so we'll see how it works!

Thanks!

Artic Cool cushion wasn't much good. It only has about a 6" strip down the middle with the wire mesh. Since I'm more than 6" wide (boy, am I!) I'm effectively sealing off the sides so very little air gets to circulate.

Thanks for the pointer anyway, if you hear of something else, please let me know.

Thanx,
Alex

Try this - The Chillow

SoothSoft - The Official Home of Chillow and Canine Cooler

I have heard good things about it. It's obviously more expensive but it probably works better. I'm surprised that the other thing wasn't the same as it used to be.
