Rick,
I experienced the same thing with my Unique that I had. Good to hear they are planning for a revision. I ended up redesigning the bottom cushion, cutting a notch out of the plywood bottom to intentionally allow for sag, and building a frame for the bottom to extend depth in order to add more foam and a booster section in front for your legs; so it was not flat. Went from like 3" to 5" thickness, using very dense memory type foam. It was a major improvement, but it could have been even better. If I had it to do over again, I would look for entirely new seats more engineered for comfort and holding since comfort is a big part of the ride quality. Good Luck.
