Abstract
A cellular cushion includes a base and a plurality of hollow cells coupled to the base. The base includes at least a first layer and a second layer. The first layer includes a substantially planar lower surface and an opposite upper surface. The second layer includes a substantially planar lower surface and an opposite substantially planar upper surface. The hollow cells extend outwardly from the first layer upper surface within at least one region. Each of the cells within the first region are coupled together in flow communication. Each of the cells includes a hollow body portion and an outer surface. The cells are spaced across the base such that the cell outer surfaces cooperate to define a contoured seat configured to cradle a portion of a user. An outer surface of at least some of the cells is at least one of oriented obliquely with respect to the base.
