On the other hand, I don't have a problem with mine! Love them!

The heaters work well too now. A bit narrow on the seat base, the outside of the legs & bum still feel cold by comparison. But still worth it!

Mine are comfortable but I agree they do give you a sweaty back.
Out of curiosity, what do you use instead?

My drivers seat cover is starting to tear at the stitching (it's been on for about 5 years so I'm not complaining) so I'm starting to look for a replacement. I really want something that is well fitted like the neoprene ones are as I can't stand loose seat covers but not sure what else to look at. All of the canvas ones I've seen just seen are a one-size-fits-all kind of thing that don't really fit anything very well.

Just cheap Supercheap auto ones at the moment... Even my missus got hot on the neoprene and she is cold blooded...
BANSHEE not a snowballs chance in hell I could use a seat heater, I was getting sweat pimples on my arse just from the neoprene...

I've actually had these on for a couple of weeks now and haven't had a problem. Things might be a bit different in hotter weather although I worked for nearly 20 years in steam ship boiler rooms so my body doesn't sweat a great deal in very hot conditions.

Anyway, we'll see how they go.

The only complaint is the missus complains a bit about the rubber smell.

Paul, if you're not adverse to spending stupid amounts of coin on seat covers, the Trek Armour ones are fantastic. Great fit, not hot at all, includes a MOLLE system, can get covered in mud and still clean pretty easy. I've been running them for a year and a bit and love 'em.

Only Downside is the price.
