Comfy and easy to install. It really does help to keep me cool in the warmer weather and looks like it will also be effective at reducing water on the seat when wet

COMFORTABLE SEAT COVER David Read on Oct 02, 2023

The seat cover fits perfectly and is extremely comfortable to sit on for long rides. Not only does it protect the seat but it provides astonishing good airflow on hot days. Even when l washed the bike I didn’t get a wet seat when I rode my bike immediately afterwards. Looking forward to my Spain and Portugal road trip next year without overheating as it’s like having air conditioning on your seat. Highly recommended

This not a wunderlich product Rob Pickford on Sep 22, 2023

Ordered a cool seat cover, specifically a wunderlich one, what arrived was a 'cool covers' seat cover. Disappointed at being mislead into thinking this was a different brand. If this not a wunderlich brand, then update your listing!

I have been using a cheap copy for a while that was ok but never fitted properly . Thought I would splash out hoping it wasn't a cheap copy with a branded name. Amazed how well it fits and how much better the material is. Would definitely recommend

This is an absolute must. I purchased it on the basis that my seat is beginning to show signs of wear and to prolong before needing to re-upholster, figured this would help. Wish I'd have bought sooner. Price is on the high side for what it is, but it's undeniably helped make the bike comfortable and also prevents my nether regions getting wet. Win win!

What a transformation! Once you acclimatise to the ‘fresh air’ passing through the mesh it’s excellent at keeping whatever’s in contact with the bike seat, cool - and when it rains, dry! 🤣

Bit expensive I think, but the seat cover is easy and quick to fit. It is more comfortable than the standard seat, and great for an all day ride. Luckily I've not used it in the rain yet !

Cool cover for seat. Arrived very quickly from Nippy Normans. Fits easily. Benefit of the heated seat doesn’t come through so I shall use when we have warmer weather or I know it’s definitely going to rain. Great service from NN

The cool seat cover does exactly that. Did not notice it all riding on motorways, a roads, twisties, etc. The only thing I would say as a negative is that with riding jeans (denim/kevlar mix) I slid forward a lot under braking. In my textile trousers and leather jeans - no issue at all. For that reason I'll give it four stars. That said I'm keep it on the seat for 95% of my riding. Very good product.

Great bit of kit from Cool Seat very comfortable and cool in hot weather. I'd recommend this for your BMW R1200 GS.

I never found the stock seat on my GSA very comfortable on longer rides our touring. I decided to look for a replacement comfort seat but they were all VERY expensive but then found this cover. At first I was sceptical that this would work given its pride but gave it a try and I have to say it’s one of the best ‘add ons’ I’ve bought for my bike. It is easy to fit in minutes and immediately made the seat more comfortable. It’s well made and allows air to move around beneath you and drains rain away from you. It also allows you to naive around and relives any pressure points. I cannot recommend this highly enough.

Cool buy Russell Bennison on Oct 06, 2021

Rating: 4

Sold as helping to disperse water when raining and offer some additional comfort. I would say it is incredibly good at preventing the ‘num bum’ effect after long periods of riding. I used to be able to only sustain 1.5 hours before needing a break. I can do 300 miles plus no probs. A must buy for a GS.

Cool Product! Gareth Williams on Aug 23, 2021

To be honest I had low expectations of this product, having actually bought it to protect the easily torn BMW OEM seat covers. However, it really does what it claims, is a quality item and is tough even with my 20 stone on it. Recommended!

Previous comments made me give this cover a go. Not disappointed. Gives greater degree of comfort and on really hot days a bit of much needed cooling. Value for money. I won’t say so.

Used in conjunction with a Sargeant Seat, the product is awesome. 400 mile trip was so comfortable. No numb butt. The proof to me will be at the end of July on a 1000 miler.

Have used these covers on different bikes and find them a godsend. Improves comfort on long rides and keeps your backside cool on hotter days. Looking at other reviews no one has mentioned the fact that it keeps your bum dry on wet days as the water runs the through the mesh instead of pooling round your crotch.

I bought this for a wet trip to Wales and it did not disappoint. It meant I was not sat in a pool of water for the trip. It is sold to keep you cool but it actually helped keep me dry!

Bought this in the hope it would improve the comfort of the seat, my first trip was from Leeds to Aviemore, previous to fitting the cool cover, 1hr30mins it starts to become uncomfortable and by the end of a 350 mile trip, the discomfort starts increasingly shorter. With the cool cover, i am very pleased to announce, there was very little discomfort all day, the next day i rode to Applecross and back to Aviemore 277mls, again no discomfort i can happily say im very pleased with my purchase.

Was looking at changing original BMW seat as i was getting hot spots on my sit bones after 1-2 hours.. Looked at touratec, Sargent and others but couldn’t justify the price.. Read a few reviews on the cool cover and for the price was worth a punt. Does exactly what it says and would recommend anyone to try it before they spend out on a new seat. Used it on tour in the Peak District in the latest heat and it didn’t get silly hot in the sun and no soreness or hot nadds.

Comfy cooling Steve Savery on Jul 22, 2020

This seat cover works as described. I wear kevlar-lined jeans from Klim which are quite warm even in autumn months. With the unusually sunnier and warmer weather we've been experiencing lately it has made this even more noticeable. I can really feel the air getting between me and the seat now. It may be connected, but I also feel more comfortable in the saddle with the cover. Fitting takes moments and was really easy. I would rate this item as good value for money.

Seems to be well made, fits easily and well. Due to covid we are not able to leave the Isle of Man, so I've not yet ridden for more than 2 hours non-stop. However, my impressions at this stage are pretty positive.

In terms of cooling, the cover really works and it looks good. It does add height and width to the seat, so the ground is that bit further away! I have my GS seat in the "low" position which means it slopes forward but, on the plus side, this seat cover is quite grippy so it stops me sliding forward as much. All in all, I'm very pleased with it.

Tried this on a couple of 100 mile plus rides with temperatures In the late 20’s. Wearing textile trousers I felt more cool and comfortable than with the stock seat. A bit pricey but initial rides would indicate worth it in the long run.

Seems good on promises ... Daniel Wijns on Sep 26, 2019

For the time being I am satisfied with the product. It is easy to install on the seat and pretty neat at sight. Usually the sore bottom symptoms began after about 250 km (155 miles) and were confirmed and became less bearable when reaching the 400 km (250 miles). I didn't yet used the product on a 400 km ride but I felt still reasonably comfortable during a 250 km ride on a mild temperature dry day trip. Now, I wonder how the product will behave in time in form, quality and performance. I am also somewhat concerned about the friction it might generate on the genuine seat covering and its wear-out in time. However, the bottom of the issue seems to be met ;-) Have a nice ride !
