The RISON Sit-Stand Stool (Classic) from Mey Chair Systems offers users the option of intermittently adopting a sitting position throughout the workday. Employing the RISON to bear the bulk of body weight permits the feet and legs to rest, reducing fatigue and potentially contributing to a more alert user.

The non-vertical, or leaning, stance effectively reduces the weight load on the joints of both the legs and the feet as the stool, rather than the legs and feet, becomes the load bearing support. The ability to position the seat in an elevated position also significantly reduces the effort required to return to a fully standing position. The shock absorbing effect of the easily adjusted gas cylinder provides additional comfort when the user sits down.

The non-pivoting seat offers an infinitely adjustable height range from 26" - 35.5" - suitable for users from about 5'2" up to 6'6". The polyurethane seat provides a firm yet cushioned seating surface with raised texture bumps. The detachable back support is also formed from the same foam as the seat. (Note: The back on the 11120 has a 2.5" deep curvature in the middle, is 14" wide, and has firm edges. Some users with broader frames may find the back on this model too narrow and deep for a comfortable fit. As an alternative they may wish to consider the EZSIT Comfort Elite Sit-Stand Stool , also from Mey Chair Systems, which offers a broader back (and seat) better suited to users of larger build.)

While the seat does offer the option of tilting it to accommodate a "leaning" position rather than the seated position the fact that the back support on this model is rigidly mounted to the tilting mechanism means that it is really only suitable for upright sitting (ie. when tilted the back follows the movement of the seat and prevents the adoption of a proper upright stance. Users wishing to use this seat as a "leaning" seat should consider the current model of the RISON which now incorporates independent back angle adjustment into the seat mechanism. The current seat-only version of the RISON is also available in two height ranges to accommodate the varying needs of users.

The heavy-duty textured black tubular steel base on the RISON Sit-Stand Leaning Stool is designed for industrial settings but functions well in many offices, providing strength and stability. Strong nylon glides engage the floor to ensure firm positioning of the seat and the incorporated rollers permit the chair to be easily moved between workstations. The unique design of the base maximizes stability while greatly reducing the risk of tripping for passersby.

The WTRFL Perching Seat from ErgoVerse offers an angle-adjustable, contoured seating surface for both perching and leaning applications. The naturally-shaped seat features a flowing design with a softly rounded front that rises slightly to provide a "ledge" effect that can counter the "slippage" sensation that flatter seats may generate. The rounded waterfall front then drops down and away, eliminating uncomfortable sharp pressure lines against the back of the legs.

The firm polyurethane foam seat is waterproof and highly resistant to cuts or punctures, with formed channels facilitating cooling air flow. Height adjustment is accomplished with a gas spring that also serves as a shock absorber by providing a cushioning effect when weight is brought to bear. The seat angle is adjustable from 0° to 14° to let every individual find a comfortable position. A convenient handle is integrated into the back of the seat for ease of movement about the workspace.

The GIGCHR Foldable Perching Seat from ErgoVerse is a temporary, foldable seating solution suitable for a wide range of applications. Designed for portability and weighing only 18.7 lbs, the GIGCHR enables musicians, public speakers and others to easily transport the chair between venues or job sites. The chair offers a seat height adjustment range from 21.25" to 35.4" and an ample back height adjustment range, so support can be positioned to provide optimum benefit. The GIGCHR features durable rectangular tube steel construction rated to 264 lbs., simple folding hinges, and easy handwheel adjustment of the seat, back and footrest heights. The seat and back of the GIGCHR are padded for comfort and upholstered in black imitation leather for easy cleaning.

The built-in height-adjustable footrest provides support for when the seat is raised to greater elevations, and is easily folded out of the way when not desired or for storage and transport.

Optional accessories include a guitar stand and a beverage holder.

The SRLYN Perching Seat from ErgoVerse offers those working at height-adjustable workstations the option of an elevated perching seat or a leaning stance. The SRLYN helps to reduce strain on the legs and feet as well as on the muscles of the lower back and core. The leaning position also minimizes the effort required to return to a fully standing position and permits a greater range of motion and greater reach than does a standard seated position.

The SRLYN Perching Seat features an infinitely adjustable height range from 26.4" to 35.8" and locking forward tilt adjustment from 5° up to 20°. The 14.2" wide by 12.6" deep formed polyurethane seat provides a large firm cushioned seating surface with an integrated handle for ease of movement. (Note: Individuals under 5'6" may find this seat too high but those who are taller might benefit from its greater upper range as it can accommodate heights up to 6'6".)

Strong nylon glides engage the floor to ensure secure positioning of the seat. The convenient integrated handle can be used to tip the SRLYN onto the small transport rollers incorporated into the rear glides for movement about a workspace. The unique design of the heavy-duty textured black tubular steel base maximizes stability while also greatly reducing the risk of tripping for passersby. Though this ruggedly designed seat has an industrial look it can also work well in an office setting.

The FYLDST Foldable Leaning Stool from ErgoVerse can provide leaning, perching, or even sitting options. While all three positions reduce the weight load and stress on the joints of the legs and feet, the leaning and perching positions are especially beneficial as they make it possible to quickly move back to a fully standing position with minimal effort.

Designed for portability, and weighing only 14.3 lbs, the FYLDST lets individuals easily move their seat with them between locations or job sites. This stool offers an extended range of seat height adjustment from 21.25" to 35.4" which will accommodate most heights and is rated to support 264 lbs. Heavy rectangular tube steel construction, simple folding hinges, and handwheel adjustment of seat height mean this chair will last through years of heavy use. The fixed, formed polyurethane seat angles slightly down at 10°, providing a comfortable resting place when needed, well suited to perching or leaning. The textured surface of the seat facilitates airflow and makes the seat feel softer, improving comfort.

The simple design of this model results in a fixed and rigid seating position, with the only cushioning being that of the reasonably firm formed-polyurethane seat. Those looking for more cushioning or not requiring portability may wish to consider one of the numerous other models from ErgoVerse, that greater cushioning in the seats or gas spring cylinders for shock absorbance.

The UP Stool from Interstuhl features a convex non-slip bottom that encourages one to rock and shift in all directions, actively engaging a wide range of core muscles and assisting in maintaining lower torso joint mobility.

The SEET Leaning Stool from ErgoVerse is a lightweight portable leaning or perching stool with an integrated handle and rollers for ease of movement between work stations. The 16.5 pound SEET is suited more to short-term leaning or resting rather than as a long-term seat.

The tubular steel base supports a gas spring lift that helps to minimize impact when weight is brought to bear. It provides seat height adjustment from 24.8" to over 33". The unique "cylinder roll" seat is 12.75" wide, with a diameter of 3.5" and is formed from sturdy self-skinned non-absorbent polyurethane foam that is highly resistant to nicks or cuts. Deep cut ribbing on the roll provides a textured surface to facilitate airflow and helps to keep skin cool, dry and comfortable.

The heavy-duty textured black tubular steel base on the SEET provides strength and stability ideal for industrial settings but can also function in any location.

The Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat was developed to provide those of smaller or more slender build with a seating option better suited to their needs. This saddle stool features a comfortable split-saddle seat with the added benefit of splay and tilt adjustment for a personalized fit. The primary design is very similar to other Kanewell Twin Saddle models, with the saddle offering the same amount of cushioning and the same degree of splay at the front. However, because this seat is specifically intended for those of smaller build, the seat halves do not separate at the rear as on the full-size Kanewell Twin saddles, but rather pivot from a single point at the rear of the saddle to achieve the outward splay at the front. In addition to the splay feature the saddle also features the same locking tilt that permits individuals to position the seat at an angle that is most suitable for their needs or comfort.

Saddle seats are well-suited for use in active office environments, at raised counters, elevated workstations, or anywhere there is a need to be able to move into close proximity to the working area—such as dental, medical, or veterinary practices. The upright posture provided by the saddle-seating encourages better back posture, provides a much greater range of movement than that available from traditional seats, and enables virtually effortless movement about a workspace. The split-saddle is designed to reduce pressure points and improve airflow for a cooler and more comfortable experience, especially during longer periods of concentrated work. In order to meet the needs of those of smaller build the saddle on the Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat is both narrower and shallower than the standard seat (see comparison here). As well, as has been described earlier, it also has much less separation (see comparison here).

Upholstered in high grade Vinyl that is waterproof and resistant to most common cleaners and disinfectant formulations, the Kanewell Twin Compact seats are available in two height ranges to accommodate individuals of varying heights. Large diameter (60 mm) casters offer smooth movement throughout the workspace. Optional accessories include a footring to provide stability and comfort support when the chair is elevated (the height of the footring is adjustable independently of the height of the chair), the 360° Arm Accessory, and fixed glides as an alternative to the casters.

* Note: Saddle seats are not typically promoted with backrests as the saddle stance naturally encourages better back posture. The addition of a backrest may also limit movement and reduce the ergonomic benefit of a saddle-style seat, as there can be a tendency to relax against the back, reducing the level of core muscle engagement. It is also more difficult to mount and dismount from a saddle when a backrest is present. If a backrest is desired the Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Chair with Articulating Backrest is available as a backrest version.

Le Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat a été conçu pour offrir aux personnes de petite taille une option d'assise mieux adaptée à leurs besoins. Ce tabouret de selle a un siège confortable à selle divisée, avec l'avantage supplémentaire d'un ajustement de l'écartement et de l'inclinaison pour un siège personnalisé. La conception principale est très similaire à celle des autres modèles de Kanewell Twin Saddle, la selle offrant la même quantité de rembourrage et le même degré d'écartement à l'avant. Toutefois, comme cette selle est spécifiquement destinée aux personnes de petite taille, les moitiés de la selle ne se séparent pas à l'arrière comme sur les selles Kanewell Twin de pleine grandeur, mais pivotent plutôt à partir d'un point unique à l'arrière de la selle pour obtenir l'écartement vers l'extérieur à l'avant. En plus de l'écartement, la selle présente également la même inclinaison de verrouillage qui permet aux individus de positionner le siège à l'angle qui convient le mieux à leurs besoins ou à leur confort.

Les siège selle sont idéal pour l'usage dans les environnements de bureau dans lequel être actif est désiré, aux comptoirs ou postes de travail soulevés, ou n'importe où qui nécessite être en proche proximiter de l'espace de travail--comme dentiste, médicaux, ou vétérinaire. Le posture vertical offert par le siège selle encourage une meilleure posture, offre une gamme de mouvements plus grande que les sièges traditionelles, et permet le mouvement sans éffort dans l'espace de travail. La selle divisée est conçue pour réduire les points de pression et améliorer la circulation de l'air pour une expérience plus fraîche et plus confortable, en particulier pendant les longues périodes de travail concentré. Afin de répondre aux besoins des personnes de petite taille, le Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat est plus étroite aussi que moins profonde que la selle standard (voir la comparaison ici). Également, comme décrit avant, elle est beaucoup moins séparée (voir la comparaison ici).

Rembourrée avec Vinyle de bonne qualité qui est imperméable et résistant aux produits nettoyants et désinfectants les plus communs, les Kanewell Twin Compact seats sont disponibles en deux hauteurs pour s'adapter aux personnes de tailles différentes. Des roulettes de grand diamètre (60 mm) offre le mouvement lisse à travers l'espace de travail. Les accessoires optionnels comprennent un repose-pieds (en forme d'anneau) pour assurer la stabilité et le confort lorsque le siège est élevé (la hauteur du footring est ajustable indépendamment de la hauteur du siège), le 360° Arm Accessory, et des patins solide (fixed glides) comme option alternative aux roulettes.

*Veuillez noter: : les Sièges en Selle ne sont généralement pas proposés avec des dossiers, car la position en selle favorise naturellement une meilleure posture du dos. En additionnant un dossier peut également limiter les mouvements et réduire l'avantage ergonomique d'un siège de type selle, car il peut y avoir une tendance à se détendre contre le dos, ce qui réduit le niveau d'engagement des muscles centraux. Il est également plus difficile de monter et de descendre d'une selle lorsqu'un dossier est présent. Si un dossier est souhaité, le Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Chair with Articulating Backrest est disponible en version avec dossier.

The PYRCH Saddle Seat from ErgoVerse encourages the adoption of a partially elevated upright stance that encourages more upper body activity, better and deeper breathing, and improved overall blood flow. This type of posture offers a greater range of reach and can also lead to a higher degree of alertness. The upright position also makes it easy to return to a fully standing position, reducing stress on the knees.

When seated on the PYRCH Saddle Seat, the legs are positioned in a wider stance than is possible on a leaning stool or standard chair. Because the saddle can be elevated to any height between 26" and 35.8" it can serve the needs of a wide range of individuals, even those working at elevated workstations. The saddle can also be tilted forward up to 15° and offers a full 360° of free rotation. This capacity for full rotation makes the PYRCH a practical solution for workers who may need to swivel between different work surfaces when accessing parts or equipment. When the seat pan is tilted the PYRCH can also provide a limited degree of leaning capability. The robust black tubular steel base provides strength and stability, with strong nylon glides that ensure secure positioning.

Note: Sitting on a saddle stool elevates the torso higher than a standard seat. Saddle stools are therefore not generally recommended as a replacement for seating at a standard office desk. Please call one of our Product Specialists to discuss your intended use of the PYRCH Saddle Seat. We will be happy to help you find the best solution for your needs.
