Information

In either case it is packed in the unique pump which provides for easy inflation to the correct pressure.  The cushion is provided with a strap to maintain it in position.  Repose is particularly recommended for use in static chairs where it has proved uniquely comfortable as well as providing effective pressure redistribution.
