Our Verdict
For shorter practitioners, the ability to adjust fill is more valuable than any fixed-height cushion. The Retrospec Sedona arrives well-stuffed — start it at full height, then remove hulls gradually until your knees rest comfortably on the floor. The machine-washable cover is a genuine advantage for daily practitioners. It's not the most premium build, but for someone starting out or dialing in their ideal sit height, the adjustability makes it the smartest choice in this category.
