Q. What makes the Supracor Stimulite Contoured Cushion different from other wheelchair cushions?
A. The Stimulite Contoured Cushion uses a unique honeycomb design made of flexible, medical-grade thermoplastic elastomer. It evenly distributes pressure, promotes airflow, and helps prevent skin breakdown—making it ideal for individuals at high risk of pressure sores.
Q. Who is this cushion recommended for?
A. This cushion is great for wheelchair users who require superior pressure relief, postural support, and skin protection—especially those at moderate to high risk of developing pressure ulcers.
Q. Does this cushion help with pressure sore prevention?
A. Yes, absolutely. The ventilated Stimulite honeycomb cells flex and compress to relieve pressure while allowing air to circulate, helping to keep skin dry and healthy.
Q. What sizes are available, and how do I choose the right one?
A. The cushion is available in a range of widths and depths to fit most standard and custom wheelchair sizes. Measure the seat width and depth of your wheelchair for a proper fit. If you're unsure, our customer support team is happy to help.
Q. Can this cushion be used with both manual and power wheelchairs?
A. Yes, it’s designed for versatility and works well with both manual and powered chairs.
Q. How do I clean the Stimulite Contoured Cushion?
A. It’s machine-washable and quick-drying. The cover is removable and also washable. Both the honeycomb and cover may be washed and dried separately in front-loading machines. Do not use chlorine bleach
Q. Is the cushion waterproof or water-resistant?
A. The cushion itself resists moisture thanks to its open-cell design, but it comes with a breathable cover that’s also moisture-wicking—not waterproof. For complete protection, consider using a waterproof cover.
Q. Is the cushion firm or soft?
A. It strikes a balance—it’s firm enough to provide support and alignment but soft enough to relieve pressure. The contoured shape also helps maintain pelvic positioning.
Q. Does this cushion retain heat?
A. No. The ventilated honeycomb design promotes airflow, keeping the cushion cool and dry—even during long sitting periods.
Q. What’s included in the box?
A. Each cushion comes with a standard polyester cover. Optional extra cover and accessories option is available.
