Sheepette Arms Rests

I bought these to protect the armrests on my bonded leather office chair. Bonded leather disintegrates in heavily used areas, like seats and armrests. Unable to find any that would fit right out of the package and custom made being ridiculously expensive, in my opinion, I bought these knowing they would not wrap all the way around the armrests. So I adapted each one to my needs by sewing 3 strips of 3/4" elastic band to one side and velcro to the other end of the elastic, which attaches to the existing velcro. Now, they are perfect. They are also more comfortable than the original armrests. I don't blame the manufacturer for the fact that they do not meet my specific needs and I don't expect them to last more than a couple of years before looking matted and disgusting. However, being machine washable will probably increase theirlife span. But how to rate them? I see no reason not to give them 5 stars. After all, they will keep my chair looking good for more than a couple of years, according to what other people's reviews report.

Very sturdy shower chair and very easy to assemble.

Not disappointed but not thrilled either. It does what it needs to do. The color was slightly different from the pictures. Pretty average.

Just a little too big and no way to really make them smaller and still stick together. But does work good.

This review of the Seepette arm rests is based on using on an Invacare Heavy Duty wheelchair for 6'1" tall man. Q: Was the product as advertised? A: Yes Q: Would you purchase again? A: Yes. Q: Are the arm rests easy to install? A: Yes. They install in a few minutes. Wrap around the existing arm rest area of chair and secures with velco, which once attached, you do not see. Item then appears as one continguous piece of material. Q: Is the product soft for the skin? A: They are fairly thick. The patient in this case is of the red hair/freckle skin model human, which means they are like a hot-house orchid. The patient in this case, had no negative reaction, which would infer that people with average skin would fare well. Q: Is the product effective in providing relief from hard surface of arm rests?. A: We cut to fit, 2" thick Memory Foam and placed under the Sheepette. For people sitting for hours in a wheelchair, extra padding is essential.

I love this product that I purchase for my 91 yr. old mother. I works as a seat cover, easy to remove for cleaning. It holds up well in the washing machine. The product adds the extra cushion I needed for my mother's comfort. Thank you!

My 88-year-old mother has a protruding tailbone, (coccyx) and this pad has helped her tremendously. She can sit in comfort now rather than continually struggling to find a comfortable position. I cut this pad in half and have two for her lift chair/recliner seat. Will be ordering more to have some for the car and spares for the house. Held up well in the washer and dryer even after cutting it in half.

Material is not "GelSheepskin", no "gel" in the product. It is simply a piece of synthetic, low quality fabric. It's not soft to the touch and irritates my skin. "Item Dimensions LxWxH14 x 3 x 5 inches" is also inaccurate. As the pictures attached show, these are about 11 1/2 inches by almost 9 inches wide. The "plush" part is thin and not soft at all.. I purchased these to soften the hard wooden arms of a rocking chair. I can still feel the hard wood through this. Too small and no padding, not at all what I thought I was purchasing. Look elsewhere.
