Easy to clean and maintain: keep your seat base looking clean with the quick release hardware having sockets that feature a hygienic self-draining design so dirt does not get trapped.
Width adjustment for growth

Clinically correct positioning and stability
Provides stability and a solid foundation for the cushion to ensure no sag is developed over time, thus, preventing internal rotation of the hips. Allows for even pressure distribution throughout the entire cushion, avoiding pressure points in any specific area. Ensures stability for build-up of positioning cushions.
