Egg Sitter

Hahaha good luck with that.

It shouldn't do that. They are supposed to be very durable, and the only circumstances where they get permanently deformed is when exposed to heat or a room temperature over 105 degrees. If something was wrong with the manufacture of the material, you should send it back or get a refund from where you bought it. I can understand how you would be disgusted, mad and frustrated. I got my Egg Sitter on eBay for $22, but it is a genuine Bulbhead Egg Sitter, and not some cheap imitation no-brand one. It works very well, better than any cushion I've sat on in my entire life. It is supportive, yet flexible in all the right places. I am adding this for anyone who finds the Egg Sitter uncomfortable: It is flexible enough to take on the contour of whatever chair you put it on, so if it isn't comfortable on one chair, try it on other chairs. Because the Egg Sitter has its own contoured shape, It works best on a completely flat surface (like a bench) or a chair without a lot of contoured shapes. It may work well on one upholstered chair but not another, or one bare wood chair but not another.

My review will come.

Look at what Tom C said. You must have got a defective one there.

You are either working for Bulb Head or Egg Sitter, or just stupid. These things are garbage, useless. No relief at all goes completely flat when sitting on them.

0 Weight, total garbage, goes completely flat when sitting on them. Stay away from Bulb Head and Egg Sitter.

300 lbs. Supported. Sorry, Tom, but they "hope you're sitting down.".

Hahahahaha - look at larry another fool that fell for it.

Too shabby, but I accept your opinion.

The commercial is mainly a clever gimmick to make you notice the product in an entertaining way, and also remember its name. But in order for the egg not to break, the material and unique honeycomb design of the Egg Sitter have to deform and provide equal pressure to the bottom half of the egg's surface, while your butt provides some pressure on the other half. You have two sitting bones and a tail bone, right? Let's say the Egg Sitter is on a hard wooden chair. You want the Egg Sitter to provide enough strength and support to keep your tail bones off the hard surface of the chair, while providing enough flex to feels soft yet supported. The honeycomb design and the flexible material both help with weight distribution, and that's where the Egg Sitter shines compared to foam or other material. It doesn't pinch or concentrate pressure at your sitting bones, but instead distributes the pressure off those areas, so you don't feel pain or pressure there. When you sit on an egg which is on an Egg Sitter, you feel less like you are sitting on a hard egg than you would if you sat on a hard egg on a foam sofa cushion. It's that good at distributing pressure. The only way the advertising is misleading is they don't mention this cushion might not work as well or work at all, if you weigh a lot, or have a huge butt, or the chair you want to put the Egg Sitter on is deeply contoured. The Egg Sitter works best on a flat surface or a shallow contour. Disclaimer: I've only used the Egg Sitter for a few weeks, and I don't know how long they last. If they really last without deforming for ten years or more, this design will cause a revolution in furniture. And if they wear out in two years, I'm afraid I'll just buy another, because mine is that comfortable.

You certainly don’t need anything from Egg Sitter or Bulb Head. The Egg Sitter is garbage.

Even when you, Tom, had Egg Sitter, everyone at BulbHead hopes "you're sitting down.".

I don't own a car presently and ride my bicycle everywhere, including to appointments dozens of miles away. I tried spinning once in an empty spin classroom, just to see what it is about. The problem with your problem is twofold. One, the spin class bicycle seats may really be the wrong kind of seat for your butt, and putting a gel cushion over that isn't going to help. Bicycle seats are like beds, in that you don't really know if they're the right one for you until you've been on it for hours or days. There are a few studies on sleep and beds, that show people tend to pick the wrong mattress by trying it out in the store. The second problem is that the bicycle seat has to not only provide a little cushion, but unlike a chair seat, it has to conform to a much smaller part of your rear-end anatomy, and thus how it fits and supports is of paramount importance. So if you take spinning seriously, perhaps you'll need to bring your own seat, if they'd allow you to do that. I can't help you with advice on finding the right seat because sometimes that takes a while to do. I rode a bike for years that had a terrible seat. Anytime I rode over two hours, I got so sore. Then with my next bike, it just so happened the seat fit allowed me to ride for hours and hours with no soreness. Now I know how important the seat is. For men, the split bicycle seat is one of the most important revolutions in cycling, because riding a regular bicycle seat is really bad for your anatomy.

The answer to your question is in physics. An egg will not break if it has a reasonably even pressure on all sides. Let's say sitting on the egg deforms it halfway, so the cushion from the Egg Sitter is exerting equal pressure on the bottom half of the egg. The top half of the egg gets your butt muscle and fat conforming around it, exerting equal pressure on that half. Even if the egg were to bottom out, and touch the surface of the wood chair, there would still be enough pressure on all sides enough not to crack it. When you crack an egg, you have to strike it exerting considerable pressure on one point. While the Egg Sitter experiment of sitting on an egg is supposed to demonstrate the ability of the material to distribute pressure evenly, this is lost on people somehow. You have two sitting bones and a tail bone. The Egg Sitter has a physical valley for the tail bone, and the seat bones are supported by the unique distributive properties of a honeycomb-designed (hex shapes) of the hyper-flexible polymer. The commercial is also a gimmick, which is entertaining and helps people remember the name of the product and want to read more about it. I've only had my Egg Sitter a few weeks and it is perfect so far. I've read comments where people claim they became permanently deformed, and others where people have used it for a year or more in their office for 8 hours a day and it is the same as the day they bought it.

Would not matter what the cover is made of, Egg Sitter is junk, no support at all. Goes flat when sitting on it. Stay away from Bulb Head and Egg Sitter.

Mr. Thomas Anglin, stop bitchin' and sit down on Egg Sitter.

Don't want to waste money.

Sorry Jo but I'm not going to waste my money on some stupid product that obviously will NOT work. You want to waste your money, feel free.

Really? Both normal and deluxe come with covers.

Some sites like this one have an option out site for them using your email or phone number, might be worth checking out.

One is a "deluxe! ".

The differnce is the amount of money you will waste.

Both trash, don’t waste your money.

Tom, we know your lies. Sit your stupid self down on your cheap egg seat.

The deluxe Egg Sitter will allow you to sit on sit on deluxe eggs. Seriously, I think the deluxe comes with special charcoal infused smell-eating cover, and that's the only difference. I have the regular one with a regular zippered black cover, and it is really well made but hides the beautiful honeycomb structure of the Egg Sitter from prying eyes. But it also protects it from dirt and dust. The cover still allows good ventilation though, and I have to put something over it to feel warm in very cool room temperature. The downside of the cover is that no one knows you are sitting on the greatest development in the 21st Century!
