      Comments about GCI Outdoor SitBacker Canoe Seat with Lumbar Support:

      Only problem with this item Strap on the back of the seat would come up. But was easy to pull back down. Great support, would not like to make the 43.7 mile trip without it. I tried one that didn't have a hard back. It was not as comfortable as this one

        My husband has a herniated disc and loves to canoe. This seat was the perfect answer. I had read reviews of other seats and was glad to find this one. It has a lumbar support, cushion seat and a pocket in the back. Very nice.

        Could be easier to connect to existing canoe seats. Not thrilled with the stability of the seats when fastened to canoe. Overall, a good product, but could use some minor adjustments.

          The intended purposse of this purchasse was to use the seat in "stadium seating" while watching high school sports events. They have proved to be an excellentlight choice because they are light weight, comfortable,give good back support, and does not restrict a persons size. I would recommend this design to everyone.

            These seats are what I've needed for a long time. Being a taller man I had a hard time sitting in the canoe for short periods of time. I get all the support I need and the seat cushion makes for a more comfortable trip down river. I also will use them at my sons football games.

                I was wondering the same thing. Someone else mentioned that if you call GCI customer service that they have an extension strap that you can add to it to fit the big bulky plastic scanoe seats but I hear it costs 9.99 for the extension strap.
