I've found seat comfort to be a lot like the Pepsi Challenge.
In the Pepsi Challenge, people were given about one ounce of the soft drinks. On average, people preferred the Pepsi Cola over Coke. The Pepsi Challenge was designed to let Pepsi come out on top. People tended to like Pepsi more when given just a small taste. But give someone a whole glass or a whole can, and the numbers flip, and Coke comes out on top. Moral: Pepsi is good after just a small dose, but after experiencing more of it, you'd prefer the Coke.
I find that seats that provide an instant "Ooh! This feels nice!" feeling end up being too soft and uncomfortable not only after longer journeys, but they just don't hold up as well over time.
