You should be able to get a singe bed pad for about $25. My wife and I got some for the King and it's great! I think I'm gonna plan to use the temperfoam on the piet seat too.I think Temperfoam would be a good choice for the foam in the seat, and Sam's is probably the place to find it. However, pad design is at least equally important. I originally had just a simple cushion, and would be uncomfortableafter an hour or so. I made a new one (but did NOT use Temperfoam - couldn't find an inexpensive source), and used different density foam layers, cupped outthe middle so it didn't raise me up very much (maybe 1/2" thick in the center), and extended it over the forward edge of the seat, to give my legs moresupport. By increasing the surface I sit on, it made an incredible differencein comfort. Sit on your seat, and make note exactly what portion of your behind actually touches. Then, as a comparison, go sit in your Lazy Boy chair, and see how much of your behind actually touches. Forward leg support is very important to comfort.Chuck G.________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2005 21:29:25 -0800 (PST)
