Default Opinions of gel seat pads?

Ive heard mixed reviews on pads like these http://www.danmedicasouth.co.uk/prod...-gel-seat-pad/
It seems you either love them or hate themand find them to slide around too much. What is everyones experience of them? For £55 or so, might just give it a punt.

I realise the airhawk is rated better and probably is better but i dont want to spend over £150 on a seat!

Air hawk is better, and you can get the 80 quid one, don't have to spend 160. The gel are an improvement, and you will be able to last longer, but you will still get hard spots after a while.
