Comfortable seating position. see full Honda Odyssey review |

The captains chairs in the second row can be apart or together. It is easy to get to the third row seat. There is plenty of leg room in the second and third row seats, and plenty of room between the second row seats. see full Honda Odyssey review |

| 2005 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 255-horsepower 3.5L V6 w/DoD 5-speed automatic FWD |
Split 3rd row is great (3 kids) - access is great. 2nd row bucket seats are easy to access and very comfortable. see full Honda Odyssey review |

I like the fact that I can seat 6 in the back since I have 4 children. see full Honda Odyssey review |

No back support, no thigh support. Seat headrests curve your spine forward. Seat shape was not the same for all four captain chairs. Quality control must be very poor. see full Honda Odyssey review |
| 2006 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Worst driver seat ever--both bottom and back are poorly shaped. Cannot drive more than a few minutes without pain--so have modified with air cushion and pillows, but only partially mitigates. see full Honda Odyssey review |
TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata
| 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| The most obvious reason not to buy any Mazda MX-5 Miata? The thing that kept me from buying one: no back seat. The MINI Roadster also had not back seat, while the MINI Convertible and Scion FR-S have vestigial perches on which only my smallest child might sit semi-comfortably. In contrast, I can fit all three of my teenagers into my Mazda RX-8. But if my wife also wants to come along, we have to take our other car. see full Mazda MX-5 Miata review | ||
