(More customer reviews)When a family member developed a pressure sore from too much sitting, a friend told me that a sheepskin might help. I couldn't find a wheelchair cushion cover made from sheepskin, so I purchased this polyester-backed lambswool cushion cover instead. Like sheepskin, it wicks perspiration away from the body, and it provides a little bit of extra cushioning. The lambswool cover helped to take pressure off so that the sore could be treated successfully (in a person who is fairly mobile and no longer wheelchair-bound).
This cover is luxurious and good-looking, and the family member loves it! It fits a large (3" x 16" x 18") pincore latex foam wheelchair cushion. The one drawback is that the two small Velcro closing tabs do not hold the cover securely in place over a large cushion. I solved this problem by adding safety pins.
The only real sheepskin covers that I could find are designed to fit over both the back and seat of the wheelchair (for example, Wheelchair Seat Cover Sheepskin Pad Natural - Wooly Bully #WCC). This lambswool cushion cover was a better solution for my household, because the family member did not like the idea of the full wheelchair cover.
