Rower Seat Pad Compatible with Concept 2 Rowing Machine - Anti Slip Rowing Machine Seat Cushion Pad Compatible with Hydrow, Concept2, Waterrower and Other Row Machines - Rower Accessories

I have had this for a month now and use it regularly (4-5x/week). Prior to purchasing, I literally had scabs from rubbing my butt raw on the hard Concept 2 seat. After a month, no more scabby butt! It's just as the other reviews state - thin, grippy and comfortable. It's also easy enough to carry to the gym - I just lay it on the seat and pick it up when I'm done. I was curious if the padding would be enough since it's so thin, but it works. The only con - it's smelly. After a month the smell still hasn't dissipated (sort of a petroleum smell). But it works. Buy it - your butt will thank you.

superb product at superb price

Better for sliding on the seat but a little more cushion would be nice

I was a little surprised how well it worked. I used the Concept 2 pads and they were very OK. This pad gives me better cushioning and no interference whatsoever with the stroke.

Yes it fits -- we are using it on a Waterrower -- and it's a decent amount of comfort for the price. It does grip ok, but the material is SO sticky it also grabs dust and cat hair and everything, making it NOT sticky pretty quickly. And while it doesn't slide around during use, since it doesn't attach to the seat it falls off when people get on and off the machine (and, silly me, when we tilt up the rower after using). Might be ideal with some elastic straps to keep it from falling off when it's not between a butt and the seat.

Overall the pad works well and does not slip, which has happened with other pads in the past. The pad is a little on the thin side and I did experience discomfort on longer rows. The construction is good and works as advertised.

This pad has saved our rowing. I was very skeptical of seat pads for rowing machines (never part of our erg routine back when I rowed in high school!) but after we bought a rowing machine and returned to using it regularly after our long hiatus, we both started noticing significant tailbone soreness that couldn’t be fixed by adjusting foot placement, etc. Luckily this seat pad was here to save our aging-millennial day. It adds a lot of comfort with remarkably little thickness (you can see how flat it is in the photo—essential for not changing correct rowing posture). Also perfectly grippy—it stays put with a great, unobtrusive-looking fit to the seat of the classic concept 2 model D. Works for a variety of body types, from 6’1” and bony like my husband to petite and better-cushioned like myself. :) The grippy seat ripples (on both sides) do attract lint like nobody’s business, though. If you care, ready the lint rollers.

First, it really doesn't slip. I had been using a thicker cushion that strapped on, and it tended to loosen up - this one stays in place. It's also thinner than the last cushion I tried, but it's not any less comfortable for working out. It still provides enough padding/a better surface so my bum doesn't get sore when I work out. I also found that the thicker cushion put me in a slightly weird position with respect to the moving parts of the machine; the thinner one feels more natural.
