Varilite Reflex non-adjustable cushion is recommended for users who are at moderate risk of skin breakdown. Reflex cushion is a skin-protecting wheelchair cushion that is ideal for use in nursing homes, hospitals, and other clinical settings. For strength and durability, reflex foam is bonded to a puncture and water-resistant polyester fabric.
Air & Foam floatation
Air-release device
When the user sits on the cushion, an air-release device built into the cushion automatically releases a portion of the air. The air-release device maintains a constant level of immersion and prevents bottoming out. When you remove your weight from the cushion, it automatically re-inflates.
Cover
A tailored, removable incontinence cover is included with the Reflex cushion. The underside is made of tough nonslip material with a hook and loop closure for added security. The cover can be machine washed.
Please call us to configure the custom cushion size.
Note Custom and Non-Standard size cushions ordered are not returnable.

Q: How do Varilte cushions work?
A: Air in a Varilite cushion supports the load, while foam keeps the air where it's needed and preserves the cushion shape. Learn more about the Varilite Air-Foam technology
Q: How is the cushion adjusted properly?
A:
Q: Why do some seat cushions have an indentation?
A: The cushion is designed to indent in the sacral-ischial area. The soft, less firm foam of the sacral-ischial area, by design, exerts less "push back" on the cushion fabric than the surrounding firmer foam. See Sacral-ischial foam indentation detailed information
Q: Will a 16" x 18" cushion fit in a 17" x 18" chair?
A: No. Select the cushion that is 1" larger. For example if your wheelchair size is 17" x 18", select an 18" x 18" cushion. The cushion will accommodate the 1" size difference without affecting its performance.
Q: Are Varilite cushions available in custom sizes?
A: Varilite cushions are available in a wide range of widths and depths. Size selection is frequently updated to meet the needs of customers. Standard sizes often accommodate custom wheelchairs well. If you need a size that is not currently available, select the cushion that is 1" larger as explained in the above question.
Q: How do I maintain my Varilite seating system and back support?
A: We recommend that you leave the valve open and allow the cushion to fully inflate overnight at least once a week to maintain optimal cushion performance and foam integrity. Check your cushion's inflation level daily to ensure optimal seating and positioning.

Q: Is there any latex in Varilite cushions or covers?
A: No.
Q: What do I do if the valve breaks or comes loose?
