I think it will work great got your dad. I've had mine in the car for 20,000 miles and it still feels great

I think so. I got it to use after my hip replacement and its so comfy I am still using it.

i believe it will work for your father and it is thick enough, my father took the cushion when we went to idaho it was about a 22 hour ride and not once he complained , while everyone else complained that they were tired of sitting he was , not me i'm ok i'm comfortable

This cushion has good, high-quality foam and is very comfortable. You should also look into a combination foam/gel cushion, which many people in wheelchairs use. I have one of each for my elderly father. The gel or foam/gel combination cushions are firmer, so it's a matter of personal preference. Having both with the ability to switch is the best of both worlds.

I would say yes. These are some of the thinnest knee pads I've ever owned and they still protect great. If your work pants are on the baggier side you'll be fine. If you weren't looking specifically for hardshell pads, then a thinner option would be volleyball pads, but these are the thinnest hardshells I've owned and they saved my knees a hundred times while snowboarding.

The padding is about one quarter to three eighths of an inch thick. It is definitely thick enough for me.

No, it won't be too thick. It's basically like a regular pillow that is very long.

I don't think its thick enough for a regular chair. It's perfect for the car.

No I would say more about an inch thick . Maybe a little more but not much at all. Trust me it's worth it . I'm a heavy cell user while working and only use 50 % in about 8 hours . Factory battery charging all night after 3 hours steady use.

Not very thick at all.....I would say about 1/16" and that's all. It feels very durable though.

We have it in our travel trailer , it's comfortable enough for a couple days but I would recommend a little thicker for long term use

I am not sure my husband uses this for trucking I can ask him and get back to you.

Padding isnt bulky thick, in fact is lighter and thinner that the common brands, like walmart and kmart brands, but is much more durable and absords inpacts a lot better.

Not much!!! 2 inches thicker. I bought my daughter the 12 inch and it is just as comfortable as 13 inch. I had to move my daughter to Florida for grad school . Long story short couldn't fit her matress and box spring in truck. I didn't buy box springs. She has a platform bed. We both love our matress !!! Good luck

Ours has gotten quite a lot of wear---but I would estimate 1" thick when new. This has been an incredibly useful tool for my husband who has knee issues and struggles with kneeling in the garden. We have been quite pleased with it.

yes!! Great padding much thicker than most. Even the straps to keep the keyboard in place have a lot of padding....I highly recommend this because of it's size and durability! (and no, I don't work for whatever company makes this either!)

my son is about 50 pounds. If this were for me, I would buy one thicker than 2".

To avoid skidding something as heavy I Would consider other more sturdy material, like rubber. This one is too soft. would compress completely under that weight

Yes, this is very thick over an inch I kneel comfortably on it during exercises for 20 plus minutes. I do recommend it.

The thickness is sufficient even at max speed. I've never purchased the sheepskin cover and don't feel the need. The pad is covered in vinyl but its sturdy and don't think it will tear anytime soon w/normal wear
