Product Description
Features The Wagan Air Circulating Seat Cushion is designed to provide cooling relief for hot car rides or in the home or office. Much like ventilated seats in high end luxury cars, the cushion is desinged to draw in cool air and circulate throughout the seat to provide cooling relief for your back and lower seat area. Includes an adjustable control to set the most comfortable level possible. Easy to install, simply attach the seat cushion to your car seat using the easily adjustable straps and plug the DC adapter into your automobile's 12V socket.

3 out of 5 stars straps   June 17, 2008
I bought this for my husband..he likes it but the straps are not long enough to go around the seat of a full size pickup..they both came right
off when we tried to put them on. I guess they are ok for a car.



1 out of 5 stars dont buy   June 1, 2008
this product is poorly made. the first time i attached it to the seats, the straps ripped off. i have to return it. also, it is pretty bulky. if you have short legs, the fan will hit your legs causing it not to work well. i read all of the positive reviews and thought this was going to be a great product. I am very disappointed with it.


3 out of 5 stars Works, but Cheap   April 17, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I purchased this seat cover because my boyfriend wanted one and I didn't want to spend a ton of money on the other ones that cost more and have worse reviews. I paid $33 for it so what can you expect? The cooling mechanism works great and my boyfriend (who works in landscape in Florida) said he noticed he doesn't sweat when he sits on it. The reason I say it's cheap is b/c the first time we put it on his seat the straps that hold it in place pulled off. It's a matter of poor stitching. I took the cover to the seamstress that I use for my clothes and had her reattach them. She's inexpensive and charged me $10 so overall for $43 I have a fully operational seat that works well in Florida heat.


3 out of 5 stars Works great - while it still works!   October 3, 2007

I have had this seat cushion for about a month and it really does the job well in Tucson. No matter how hot the car is when you get in it you feel cool in a few seconds. I was surprised to find that the air flow is as good up your back as it is in the lower part of the cushion. Another pleasant surprise was the included AC adapter for office use. The ad indicated that was optional.

I would have given it a 5 star rating except for the poor construction. Initially it looks well made but the quality of construction is just not there. I had to rebuild the speed control because it was flaky and was only giving one speed. Yes, I could have returned it but did not need the hassle and I knew it was an easy fix. The fan motor itself is housed in a zipper pouch on the front of the cushion and hangs down in front of the seat when in use.
After a week of use it did not seem to cool as well so I checked the motor and found that the zipper opens up on its own and lets the air out so it is no longer blowing into the cushion. A zipper with a lock could have cured this. I also found that the power cord, which is secured to the top edge of the fan housing with two small cable ties, had come loose and the wires were at risk of breaking. They just never made the cable ties tight at the factory. This was an easy fix as well.
After 3 weeks I again noticed that the air flow was not as good as it should be so I checked the zipper. This time the entire back edge of the pouch was coming un-stitched from the cushion. I could tell there would be no point in returning the unit for a new one because it would just do the same thing so I repaired the seam with contact cement.

It's a shame! This could be a really nice seat cover because it works so well when it does work, and the fixes would be so easy for Wagan to make.
1. Do a better job with the motor control. (Quality control)
2. Put a lock on the zipper.
3. Double-stitch the motor pouch seams.

I got this unit on sale for about 30 bucks, but would pay twice that if they built it better.

The seat work good but could be a little bigger to accomidate large seats in my car. I have special sports package on my car and the seats are bigger than normal.
