Actually, almost anything is entitled already said for the high price was that Terry de Luxe for me a real disappointment, especially since I have another Terry without BASF damper which is more convenient. It's the Terry Figura GT Gel Max Men saddle, which I can recommend for everyday use and medium tours very much! But for a huge tour (420 km) I wanted a slightly softer touring saddle with damper elements, hence the purchase of this saddle. Well, it is much heavier than the Figura, and as I said for me subjectively uncomfortable, harder and more unpleasant. Of the steamers I have seen nothing, and the gel layer feels hard and painful. It may be that this is individual, so far only my subjective perception. Nevertheless, I wanted to share it here. On the positive side, the ventilated, stoffig-kunstledrige surface. Thus one does not sweat so fast, which has the other saddle from Terry as well.
