Summary: Nice seat, but I still got a little sore.
Comment: We went on a 17 mile downhill bike ride with my new seat. Its very comfortable & soft but I still got a little sore, but soreness did not last long. But I still think it is a nice comfortable seat.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Comfort and economy - a great combination!
Comment: pros: comfortable, standard installation, easy to adjust, inexpensive
cons:
This seat is super comfortable. I had a chance to take a trip on a very uncomfortable saddle recently and have come to appreciate my Schwinn saddle even more. I've used it almost daily for my 8 mile (x2) commute since I started biking 3 months ago. I just took it on my first real ride - 33 miles. Toward the end I was experiencing numbness which may have been avoided by moving the front of the saddle down a bit but overall I had a great ride thanks to this saddle! For comparison's sake I'm height/weight proportionate and wear chamois bike shorts when I ride. I have virtually no rear end, so I need all the cushioning I can get!
I can see where durability may be an issue in a year or two or five, but I'm willing to deal with the minor hassle of buying a new saddle sooner should that happen.

Summary: Great Schwinn Bike Seat
Comment: While I haven't had this seat quite as long as several of the riders doing reviews on it, one thing that became immediately apparent to me was it is one of the most uncomfortable seats I have every ridden if not properly adjusted!
That being said, I really have to state that with taking the time to properly adjust the seat it is really a great seat and quite comfortable. Like a couple of other people mentioned, it does take a bit of time and a few trial & error attempts to get it just right. At least it did for me. I just took my seat adjustment wrenches with me and stopped and adjusted till I got it right. It was well worth the effort as it is now a pleasure to ride.

Summary: Happy bottom
Comment: This is a great seat for men. It supports the bottom but does not put pressure on the genitals. This might sound funny but it was exactly what I was looking for.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Back in the saddle again!
Comment: Let's face it, bike seats do wear out over time. Even the most expensive saddles are going to break down over time, and even with a premium gel seat from five or six years ago, you're going to feel the pain in that "important area" when you take a drop with an XC bike or bump a curb with a street cruiser.
If you look carefully at the photos of this Schwinn Adult Ergonomic Bicycle Saddle you'll see that it has a cut-out center relief zone in just the right area. From a personal perspective this rider found that the "love channel" section works like a champ, and after riding for a couple of hours I found that my backside wasn't sore and my crotch never felt like it was numb or falling asleep.
Do keep in mind that any saddle, regardless of price, has to be adjusted to the individual rider, and it might take a day or two (or three) to do this. Carry your simple adjustment tools with you and you can do it while you're riding, and you'll find the investment of time will pay off in riding comfort.
Also worthy of consideration is the well-made Planet Bike Men's A.R.S. Anatomic Relief Bicycle Saddle, a similar product with a slightly different though quite comfortable and sharp looking.
It almost seems that a bike saddle of this price shouldn't be given any more than a 4-star rating, as there are some great gel seats out there that cost a lot more. On the other hand, once this saddle is adjusted properly, it's a 5-star ride, and that's what counts. It's well-made, and highly recommended.
