Invacare Essential Seat Cushion Range
Why Choose the Invacare Essential Seat Cushion?
Cost-Effective Comfort and Support
The Invacare Essential Seat Cushion is manufactured from highly resilient foam, offering a supportive and comfortable seating solution at an affordable price. Designed as an ideal entry-level wheelchair cushion, it delivers dependable performance for daily use without compromising comfort.
Available in Two Depth Options
The cushion comes in two versions to suit different user needs:
-
Low Profile (2"): Slim design for active users needing lower seat height. Max user weight: 108kg.
-
Essential Basic (3"): Deeper cushioning offering enhanced comfort. Max user weight: 76kg.
Ingress-Resistant, Easy-Clean Cover
Each cushion is fitted with a high-quality black smooth cover designed to repel water and reduce the risk of soiling. The fabric encourages water to “roll off”, protecting both the user’s clothing and the cushion’s foam core. The zip is also ingress-repellent, supporting long-term hygiene and durability.
Wide Range of Sizes
The Essential Cushion range is available in multiple sizes, ensuring a suitable match for most wheelchairs and user requirements.

Invacare Essential Visco Cushion

The Invacare Essential Visco Cushion features a dual-layer design combining high-density temperature-sensitive viscoelastic (memory) foam with a durable, highly resilient foam base. This structure offers superior comfort and support, making it ideal for users who require enhanced pressure distribution while seated in a wheelchair.
Viscoelastic Memory Foam Top Layer
The memory foam top layer conforms naturally to the body’s contours, delivering a supported and comfortable seating experience while helping to reduce pressure points.
Robust Supportive Base
The resilient foam base prevents the cushion from “bottoming out”, providing stability and ensuring long-term performance.
