I left a review on the seat pad and Novix left a msg saying thanks for the information etc and give the Textilene a try which I have done already so here is a review on that seat.
I purchased the seat geez a year or so ago and just put it on this year Definitely more room and comfort. Now the mounting is the same as the seat one removes to install the Ears or tabs that the bolt goes through are weak imo. When you tightened the seat the tabs will and do bend I’m afraid if I go any tighter the tabs may break at the welds. So when I’m sitting on the seat and you shift weight it flexes. So the width of the new seat is a little more stress on the mounts. Will it break I don’t know. The seat is quite to use and while moving from up and down position. A bonus is the rain water does drain well from it. Will I buy another? Don’t know at this point $90 dollars is not a cheap upgrade for what you get. It is nice but in my opinion and experience with this seat in needs to be a little more rigid.
For reference I am 6ft athletic build 224 lbs.
A cushion implies there is cushion which there is none. It is a Pad that spreads weight distribution. It is not soft and cushy it is firm. If it rains it will collect water like a hard sponge. Does it fit yes it does, it is held in place by 4 pieces of Velcro 3/8 to 1/4 inch wide or there abouts but it holds it just fine. The price is absolutely perfect for what it is, you are getting $19.99 worth of Pad. It does the job for a cheap price but your butt will be complaining.
Hi Todd, thank you for your detailed feedback. We're glad the price meets your expectations and that it fits well.

We do wan't to also steer you into the Textilene seat world as well. A lot of folks are going this route on their Echo and Helo. We have this available as a kit and will easily bolt on the existing post! Thank you for your continued support.
Well worth the comfort upgrade. If you’ll spend $100 on broadheads then this is a no brainer. I can sit for hours without discomfort.
Making all day sits a breeze! Thank you for the feedback!
Added these to my XOP ROAM and they make a world of difference. That little bit of extra comfort makes sitting half a day in a smaller stand a lot more enjoyable.
Hi Levi, AMEN TO THAT! That extra few hours can make or break a hunt. Enjoy!
