Uncaged Ergonomics' website indicates the chair has been improved with greater cushioning. Is this updated version what I will get from Amazon?

From my experience, you will only be provided this "improved cushion" after you have received the original cushion and then contact the seller with a complaint that the seat is not comfortable. They did send out a new seat at no cost to me, but I have yet to try and pry the old one off and put the new one on.

I received mine in the last 6 weeks or so and mine does have the improved cushioning. I have used it quite a bit and love it.

the cushioning on the chair i received isn't great. The edges are hard and cause some discomfort on the backside of where i sit. If they've updated the cushioning in the last two months, you may be in better luck than me.

The new picture shows a blue seat, which definitely does look thicker and more comfortable. I wish I got that version, as I provided feedback in my initial review about the cushion. I have the prior version and purchased a 2" thick cushion to provide more comfort when sitting on the stool all day for work.

I used the cushion for the bike in my physical therapy office. The patients have stated it is much more comfortable than the original seat. They have not complained since I got the gel cushion. I hope this helps.

They recently redesigned the seat to have a mesh back. Previous models had cushioned back seats, but if you buy a new model it will be mesh

I noticed this same price difference when I bought mine about 11 months ago.I found my chair to be very good quality and function. I am glad I bought this one.

This is a cheaper model. It is smaller and not as soft as the other one. We bought this one first trying to save a buck and ended up buying the original as well. Once word of caution with these seats. You will need to adjust you seat down or your legs may fall asleep. Both the wife and I have to either lower the seat of put a pillow under our feet if we are on an extended ride. Hope this helps.

The chair is so uncomfortable I never found out. If you buy it and return it, you will loosethe freight back. (From Ca. over $200 + $140 restocking) cost more to return it than to buyit. You should check all companies you deal with (Amazon takes no responsibility for your losses).

I purchased this because it was the only one that came close to my good 'old' exec chair, now held together with duct tape and bailing wire... sort of.While I will always be faithful to my old chair, this one really is comfortable and well made. Hope that helps.

Same chair and cushion. It's Capitalism. You can either pay $69.00 straight from an Ikea store or a higher mark up from other stores. Buyer Beware!

Yeah I believe the 205 is the newer model. Not really sure why it's cheaper but I won't complain. It is a great chair. The adjustments are seat height, sliding the seat forwards and backwards, and you can lock the back into a few angled positions. There is also tilt tension on the bottom.

My chair is clear. However, you should call Amazon and determine whether the listing is correct.

I checked the costco reclainer, and choose this one and have no regrets. The costco one is a little more plush but quality the same and the price of this one was less. For me this fit my needs and I am satisfied with the chair. hope this help's

Good question. This is the 3rd summer I've had these chairs. Last summer the replacement cushions were on the Amazon web site but I just recently noticed they aren't there this year. My cushions are beginning to show a little wear and I'd like to know where they are available as well. Answers anyone?

I'm not familiar with the old version, but this chair is comfortable on my back for an hour or more at a time.

Yes there is indeed an improvement. The one I purchased from Amazon, windage adjustment,broke off in no time. I called the manufacturer to complain & they sent me a whole new tripod free of charge claiming they wanted to make sure of customer satisfaction.Very pleased with new one.

We haven't received any recall notices or seen any recalls on this one. Our daughter's is the C650, which is the model before this one and it simply had to do with the shoulder strap pads as I remember. This one is the updated version, and I have to say, it does seem just a bit sturdier overall and a little better quality, and that's saying something, because the 650 is a very high quality seat itself. I'll update if I end up getting any recalls on this one, but so far, all's well and no worries.
