Unfortunately I haven't been able to sit in one yet. But based on the reviews the seats are pretty comfy. One thing though according to some reviews the seats don't really feel the best in your going on a long drive. But city driving should be fine.
 
I haven't sat in one either, but as Inline says, if you go according to the reviews, then they should be pretty comfy. I don't plan on going on too many cross country trips or anything, so I think this would be perfect for our family.

To be honest, I've never really consider the comfort of seats in a car. Maybe I should in the future, but it never really struck me as something worth get stuck on.
It really depends on how you drive and how long you drive. For example if you like to take corners hard than some sort of bucket seats will keep you planted firmly in your seat. Also if you go on long drives a lot then you'd want something that won't make your butt go numb after an hour or two.
 
I just driven in a Cruze and totally relaxed with its leather seats. I don't have any complain on this front. I have to check for myself that whether we can change the original seats with custom made. Will it give grandiose look, even bit expensive?

I never really did either until I had the unfortunate experience of owning a car that had the most uncomfortable seats I had ever been in, so now that is on the top list of priorities when I look for a car.
 
The Seats

I quickly test drove a Cruze LTZ today and several Malibus. I didnt intend to try the Cruze because it is touted to be the "replacement for the Cobalt", which is a car I would never have bought. However, the Cruze seemed to be comfortable enough that i am going to take a second test drive this week. If the seats are anything like the seats in my LTZ Tahoe, I will be sold. When we take a family trip in our Tahoe LTZ (heated front and rear bucket seats), everyone falls asleep and I have to fight it while I drive. I think that is incredible considering my family are light sleepers. By the way, the sound system in the Cruze seemed ok, but the sound system in the Malibus was incredible even without the Bose Speaker option.
 
I sat in a Cruze just the other day. I do not like the forward leaning headrests; they will most likely give me a neckache on a longer trip. Tomorrow hopefully I will be taking one out for a test drive to either deny or confirm my suspicions. By the way, the Malibu headrests are even worse (feel like I have to tuck my chin in somewhat/hold my head forward; can't relax my head back at all).

Another point: Too bad that in order to get the sunroof, you have to have the leather seats package. Those leather seats seemed really, really hard when I first sat in them.

Isn't there a way to adjust the angle of the headrest. On most cars they are adjustable by just pulling them towards you and when they reach the end they move back all the way.

I was not in the car all that long. The sales rep was not any help either. It seemed as if the headrests were stationary except for moving up and down. I'll have to check that other out tomorrow.

i found the seats to be comfortable the one i drove had leather seats , they are a little on the firm side but i find cars with firmer seats are better for longer trips too. i actually sat in the back seat and was very suprised at how comfortable it was back there . this is just my opinoin and iam sure everybodys experience will be different
 
On the two test drives of an LTZ I thought the seat was on the firm side and styled for someone with a smaller butt than mine. At 225 lbs. I am about 35 lbs. overweight, so I think the seats would be more comfortable if I lost 15 - 20 lbs..

I also felt that the headrest was positioned to far forward and it didn't seem to have the same tilt adjustment that my current car (Cadillac STS) has. I'm sure I'll be able to find a way to make the seat and headrest comfortable, so this wasn't a deal breaker. A black on black LTZ with every option is on order. I'm already calling it "my little Caddy".
 
I test drove an LT with cloth, and found the front seats to be surprisingly comfortable, with both excellent support and moderately firm cushioning. Very high quality feel to the seat.

The rear seat is tighter than many in the segment, though.
