What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2010 Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 2dr Hatch turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
I have MS, so comfortable seats are a must. This is the only car that I've been in where I could do a non-stop trip from Michigan to Washington DC in. No fatigue, no stopping for a stretch. It's that good, and VW throws in standard heated seats for the GTI. And they do mean "heated" seats, not "warmed" seats, not "take-the-edge-off" seats. Turn them on full and your bum will be roasting with in a few minutes. see full Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI review |

Seats actually fit your body and have proper bolstering, unlike most other seats in this price range which are more like shelves for oversized American behinds. see full Volkswagen Jetta / Golf / GTI review |

Needed comfortable front seats for a large dad (@230) pounds and a tiny grandfather (@95 pounds, 4feet, 5 inches tall). These seats are the best for the comfort of such various sizes. 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 |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
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 |
