Default EggShell Foam as a Seat Cushion Replacement

Has anyone tried using eggshell type foam as a replacement
for the Evo or RANS Seat cushion? If so what was your
experience and where did you get? Thanks, Dom.

Hi Dom Isn't that type of foam open cell and very soft? I
can't see it being suitable.

Don:

I think you mean "egg crate" type foam. You have an
interesting thought. Egg crate foam is designed to prevent
decubitus ulcers from forming on bed ridden patients. I
haven't tried egg crate as a foam rubber replacement on a
Rans seat. However, egg crate isn't very stiff, it's
designed to gently support a patient fully lying down. Egg
crate isn't especially durable, it's designed to support a
patient who is largely immobile and restricted to bed. I
don't know your particular needs, but you most likely don't
want egg crate. Do a "google" search for foam rubber
vendors. They can probably help you if you are not satisfied
with the RANS foam. In fact, RANS are good folks, they may
be able to point you to an alternative foam.
