Limited (non Axis II) Seats extremely uncomfortable

Does anyone find the standard Limited seats extremely unsupportive and uncomfortable on medium range/ long range trips. I have WK2 Limited and it's seats are 2X better than our WL.

We're in the market to "upgrade" our WL to a 3-row "L" model. Can anyone confirm if the Axis II seats available as part of the Luxury II package are any more comfortable than the standard "leatherette" Limited seats? I don't need an Overland or Summit, I think the Limited with Lux II package is the sweet spot of cost/value, but I'm not even going to bother looking for an L model if the Axis seats aren't any better. I'll be leaving the Jeep brand.

I'm just overall not impressed with what the WL has become. I prefer my WK2 in every way.

But adjustability changes (12 way on overland and up), so that can certainly change things for people even if the seat shape/padding is the same.

I don’t recall feeling uncomfortable in my overland seats, the massage isn’t real intense of course but it still feels nice.

But the adjustment isn’t only about the seat itself moving up/down and forward/backward.

Lumbar movement up/down + firmness, thigh cushion adjustment, and side bolster support are all comfort items above standard movements.

Welp, guess I better chime in, best example here, have the Axis 2, Lux 2 seat, heated and vented, I came from a KL with just heated nappa leather and can't say there was any difference in the cushion or support.

Been on 2 long drives and the adjustment and memory helps a lot, have a bad back, once adjusted they are pretty comfortable.
