is there any amount of floatation in the padding?

By itself, maybe, strapped to you with mag pouches and other accessories, not so much.

not really. padding is for comfort, which will come in handy with weight of equipment. the thin and lite weight padding will not float once it absorbs water though. definitely an equipment/utility belt not a floatation device.

I haven't tested it on floating, but buoyancy is pretty straightforward. There is no foam or any other material that makes this case likely to float if the object inside would normally sink. I generally do leave a pocket of air in the bag when I seal it up, both to increase buoyancy and to make the screen work better when the case is wet. Test it in the bathtub/sink to see if your tablet floats, AFTER you test your individual bag to make certain that it seals properly.

No. The bottom side of the cushion is a textured surface that tends to grip the seat and it is heavy so movement is minimized. You will experience some small movement occasionally but much less than any other cushion I've tried.

sure, if you put it beneath the pad. Just don't expect this to give you any padding, it's practically nothing.

There is assembly required so it shouldn't be a problem. However it is a nice material and very neutral. If you are going to go to the trouble of new fabric, I'd plann a little more padding too.

Yes. The middle is supposed to be sunken & soft but it's not quite sunken enough; there's still some pressure there. :-/

I didn't use anything under it. The foot pads are pretty well designed to avoid damage. My former in-laws have the next size up and have had no problems even with all the neighborhood kids playing in the pool.

No, that is not foam padding. I believe it is some sort of hard plastic. It is really solid though.

It will float up a bit, but its not that bad. Most of these vests have that tendency though.

My only concern would be with the decreased volume of water, there may be some bleaching of the liner if the float stays in one place.

The Internal padding is pretty safe its nice and soft. I haven't had any problems yet.

Yes they are very well padded. Just don't make my mistake and sit on it yourself �.

I agree with Carrios and Lyn. I was a little worried about lack of padding, but did not actually find it a problem. I did wish there was a connecting strap across the upper chest sometimes. It still worked very well for two weeks' use in Europe .

There is some bubbling (maybe 8-10 on each chair the size of a pea, none on the seat) but to me it is not noticeable because of all the detail on the chair itself. Hope that helps.

No problems with this chair. The edge of the seat is well padded and I do not experience any pressure from it.

I've got this mounted on a glass desk and I am not using any extra padding. The padding included is adequate.

They were a gift for my niece, so I really do not know if they float. I believe they do... but am not 100% sure.
