Which seat do you recommend?

Hello everyone,
I have been dealing with back/shoulder pain now for months in my Coronado. The stock leather Sears seats are horrible. I am 6’2 220lbs and sitting just over 15 minutes in these is causing major back issues. Switched to Legacy leather, it was comfy and less backpain for couple months but now the bottom is soo hard like sitting on a rock. After 1 hour of driving my bottom hurts really bad to a point where i have to sit up while driving for a few minutes and keep constantly moving around hoping to find a comfy spot but no luck.. which seat do you recommend? I was looking at the Minimizer or Knoedler. Not sure which one to get this is 3rd seat i replaced within a year and a half and just can’t find the right one ….any help or suggestion would be appreciated.

 

I have the Minimizer Long Haul with heat and massage
It’s firm but I don’t get any of the issues that you are or that I did with other seats

I think having a soft seat you sink into might be the problem??

They’re not cheap. Maybe $2100 now so it’s a big risk if you don’t like it but the only other seat that reviews made sense on was the Bose seat ( called something else now ) but they were like $5000 if I remember correctly, did see one of those in classifieds here recently

 

Can't you keep the Legacy and just put a new seat bottom on it? I hear they wear out fairly quickly.

 

i have before a Legacy seat ,for short time,after back pain i changed tu knoedler air chief is my 2 seat from knoedler in 8 years only problem is my right side armrest broke for every seat i have from knoedler , i am 6.2 and 272 the comfort for the seat is the best for all my seats i changed in 12 years.i buy the seat from Raney Chromeshop i-75 (FL) exit 354 the have a shop exit 352 for the instalation. i hope this info helps

 

I bought the purple cushion but it raises my position and it works okay for a couple hours but after a few days of using it, I start feeling the pain again.

 

I went to Legacy Silver from Bostom. I thought they were way more comfortable. I do not run the miles some of you guys do. But I put hours on it. Bottom cushion holding up great. Seeing some cracking in leather back, and arm rest is starting to peel.

But I might be in it 12-14 hours over 350 miles or less. Lots of in and out. Still like it better than bostrom

 

Yeah, I was looking into the air chief. Leaning towards it. Did you get the massage option?

 

Yeah I never tried the Bostom. Thank you will keep them in mind too. After changing my seat 3 times I am just confused what to order since they don’t really take back returns. Once you buy it that’s it

 

I have this one. I’m 280ish love it.

A few years ago I replaced my stock fabric Peterbilt seat with a Bostrom Wide Glide. I am 6’3 and 230 and the wider seat seems to really help with my lower back issues.
On a side note you may have something out of place to cause your discomfort so quickly and the seat may or may not help. Several years ago I slipped on the ice and fell on my back. I really didn’t think much about it until months later my right arm would tingle while driving and eventually go slightly numb. The physical therapist got my rib back in to place within 8 sessions. The rib was pinching a nerve while in a seated position and I couldn’t get comfortable in any seated position regardless of my seat.
