The Australian designed Bambach Saddle Seat has been in production for over 30 years. This particular model features a longer, flatter front pommel with a wider seat in the rear. It was designed based upon feedback from men who felt the standard models were too "short" and restrictive. The greater width at the rear offers ample support and cushioning for those of larger or heavier build. Although more suitable for men, women with wider hips or larger frame may also find it a suitable fit. This particular model is best suited for those over 5'7" and up to about 6'3". Shorter individuals or those with average or slender build will most likely not find this seat overly comfortable. The upholstery is high quality vinyl that offers a supple leather-like feel.

The Salli Strong is a beefed-up version (for heavier individuals up to 330 lbs) of the the Salli Tilting Twin chair. There is a lever to provide adjustment allowing the split saddle seat to be adjusted on the front-back axis, and upon releasing the lever the chair will lock in that position. This makes it possible for the user to adjust the position of the seat to the optimal angle and make micro-adjustments over time as needed, and receive the appropriate orthopedic support from the split saddle seat design. The width of the two halves of the saddle seat is fixed and cannot adjust. A standard hand-controlled height adjustment lever for adjustment of the gas spring lift accommodates most adults. Available lift sizes and the corresponding heights they accommodate are as follows: Medium fits 5'1" to 6'1" (Seat height 22.5"-30") and Tall fits 5'8" and over (Seat height 25"-35"). The oversized (60 cm) 5-star base and lift are available by default in an attractive chrome finish. The total weight of the chair is 13 kg (28.6 lb), including the 9 kg (19.8 lb) seat, and is currently only stocked in a black leather.

The Salli Classic is the most basic model of the Salli chair line, and provides the appropriate orthopedic support from the saddle seat design. The seat is a solid one-piece saddle design. A standard hand-controlled height adjustment lever for adjustment of the gas spring lift accommodates most adults. Available lift sizes and the corresponding heights they accommodate are as follows: Low (4'0" to 5'1"), Mid (5'2" to 5'11") and Tall (5'8" to 6'5"). The 5-star base and lift are available by default in an attractive chrome finish, black base and lift available by request.The total weight of the chair is 10.5 kg (23.1 lb), the seat is 7.5 kg (16.5 lb). The Salli Classic is only available by Special Order and can be purchased upholstered in either genuine leather or polyurethane faux leather, each available in a range of colours.

Note: This early generation Salli Swing is no longer in stock. It is shown to facilitate comparison with the nearly identical Salli Sway, which is in stock.

The Salli Swing combines the concepts of upright stance and movement, without the need to stand throughout the day.The unique rocking mechanism enables the seat to freely and continuously tilt or rock on the left-right and front-back axis (and all angles in combination) without any adjustments to the chair. This engages muscles in the abdominal and pelvic area, realizing benefits for the user similar to those that can be obtained through use of an exercise ball. It allows the lower back to remain mobile and the natural curvature of the spine to be maintained. The width of the two halves of the saddle seat are non-adjustable, but the design accommodates the majority of body types.

A gas spring lift provides height adjustment. Available lift sizes and the corresponding heights they accommodate are as follows: Short: 4'0" to 5'2", Mid: 5'1" to 6'1" and Tall: 5'8" to 6'5". The 5-point star base and lift have a chrome finish. The total weight of the chair is 10.9 kg (24 lb), the seat is 7.5 kg (16.5 lb). The Salli Swing is now only available by Special Order. It can be purchased upholstered in either genuine leather or polyurethane faux leather, each available in a range of colours.

The Salli Tilting Twin features Salli's patented split saddle seat design. This seat is designed to correctly position the user in such a way that their back is moved into an optimum upright posture. Weight is transferred onto the sitting bones and off of soft tissue, reducing uncomfortable pressure points. The lever-activated Tilting feature provides a forward tilt option to further improve back posture for those desiring a greater forward tilt or who, in the course of their work, lean forward repeatedly or for extended periods.

The forward tilt lowers the front of the saddle and reduces pressure in the lower pelvic region. The Tilting Twin's design encourages an upright stance and open core which facilitates upper-body movement and can provide many of the benefits currently being attributed to Standing Workstations without the necessity of being on one's feet throughout the day.

Note: If the split saddle concept appeals but you are looking for a more active sitting experience the Salli Sway, Swing and SwingFit models may be of interest as each of these offer an 'active' tilt and free-moving seat design.

Height adjustment of the gas spring lift is accomplished through a standard hand-controlled height adjustment lever. Available lift sizes and the corresponding heights they accommodate are as follows: Short (4'0" to 5'2"), Mid (5'1" to 6'1") and Tall (5'8" to 6'5"). The 5-point star base and lift are in an attractive chrome finish.The Salli Tilting Twin is only available by Special Order and can be purchased upholstered in either genuine leather or polyurethane faux leather, each available in a range of colours.

The Salli Tilting Classic is identical to the Tilting Twin but features a solid one-piece saddle design. There is a lever to provide adjustment allowing the solid saddle seat to be adjusted on the front-back axis, and upon releasing the lever the chair will lock in that position. This makes it possible for the user to adjust the position of the seat to the optimal angle and make micro-adjustments over time as needed, and receive the appropriate orthopedic support from the split saddle seat design. A standard hand-controlled height adjustment lever for adjustment of the gas spring lift accommodates most adults. Available lift sizes and the corresponding heights they accommodate are as follows: Low (4'0" to 5'1"), Mid (5'2" to 5'11") and Tall (5'8" to 6'5"). The 5-star base and lift are available by default in an attractive chrome finish, black base and lift available by request. The total weight of the chair is 11.5 kg, the seat is 8 kg. The Salli Tilting Classic is only available by Special Order and can be purchased upholstered in either genuine leather or polyurethane faux leather, each available in a range of colours.

The Salli Job is a task stool designed with the needs of the manufacturing or service sectors in mind. As with other Salli models, the design of the seat is intended to promote a more upright posture and correct positioning of the spine by tilting the pelvis forward. The shape of the seat follows the basic concept of the Salli Split Saddle Seats but in a single anatomically-moulded piece. The groove which provides separation between the two halves of the seat provides pressure relief for the tailbone and genitals and also aids in cooling by facilitating better air flow. The seat itself is a 'self-skinned' polyurethane foam which enables it to easily be wiped down or washed with a wide variety of cleaning or disinfection agents. Height adjustment of the gas spring lift is accomplished through a standard hand-controlled height adjustment lever. The Salli Job comes with a basic black nylon 5-star base and a black Medium Cylinder which is designed to accommodate users from 5'1" - 6'1". Low (Short - 4' - 5'2") and Tall (5'8" and over) cylinders are also available.

Important:The moulded polyurethane seat on the Salli Job is significantly firmer than other upholstered Salli Saddle Chairs. Due to the overall firmness most users may find that this seat is better suited to intermittent or short-term use.

Some ideal uses for this chair would be: Assembly Lines, Hair Dressers, Cashier Stations, Factory Floors, and Lab settings. The durability of the seat and its ability to be easily cleaned are key features which make it especially suitable to these applications.

Note: If the split saddle concept appeals but you are looking for a more active sitting experience the Salli Sway, Swing and SwingFit models may be of interest as each of these offer an 'active' tilt and free-moving seat design.

The LOTAH Sit-Stand Comfort Seat from Mey Chair Systems is well-suited to users who need to work as close as possible to the work surface of an elevated workstation, particularly those built on top of base cabinets or shelves. The LOTAH features a large plush saddle designed to be straddled, rather than leaned against. While keeping the torso in an ergonomically desirable upright orientation, the straddle posture positions the heels behind the bend of the knees, rather than extended forward of the knees as they would be on a leaning stool. (See the Tulean Sit-Stand Comfort Leaning Stool, also by Mey Chair Systems, for an illustration of this latter position.) This posture allows the user to move in much closer to flat-fronted work surfaces than might otherwise be possible. As a result, the LOTAH Sit-Stand Comfort Seat helps to reduce the risk of overreach injuries to the muscles of the shoulders and back, and the risk of injury to the muscles of the sides and mid-section caused by sitting sideways along the base of the workstation and twisting at the waist to get close enough to its surface. The LOTAH Sit-Stand Comfort Seat also helps to reduce the load borne by the feet and legs for those who work at elevated workstations by transferring the majority of the user's weight to the seat. As a result the user experiences less overall fatigue and a greater ability to maintain focus and concentration.

Built on a heavy tubular steel base with a gas spring that enables a height adjustment range of 24.8" to 31.5", and with a seat that has 15° of tilt range and 3" of cushioning, the LOTAH Sit-Stand Comfort Seat offers individualized comfort and long-term durability.

The EQUESTRY Sit-Stand Seat from Mey Chair Systems positions the user in an upright stance that is known to encourage upper body movement and deeper breathing. Together these have the potential to improve overall circulation and increase the alertness of the user. The upright stance also naturally realigns the spine and reduces the potential for lower back pain which is often associated with extended sitting. In addition it provides users with a noticeably extended reach or "Comfort Zone" which reduces the risk of over-reaching.

The Sitting Saddle Stool comes equipped with casters which lock when weight is lowered onto them, meaning that the chair does not move once the user is seated. This makes this an ideal chair for those performing tasks which require fine control but a full range of movement. The full 360° of free rotation enables users to easily align to equipment or reach other work areas as needed.

The gas lift provides a seat height anywhere between 22" to 27.6" and the seat also has the option of forward tilt up to 15°. This tilted seat position rotates the pelvis further forward, encouraging a more natural alignment of the back. Some users may also find this additional tilt more comfortable. Since the casters lock when weight is put on the chair, shorter users may be able to employ the tilting option in order to use this stool as a leaning solution when they need to move between locations and don't want to go into a fully seated stance.

The EQUESTRY Sit-Stand Seat features easily cleaned black imitation leather upholstery and a chromium-plated steel base for durability.

The HNDSFREE Sit-Stand Stool from Mey Chair Systems is ideal for use in sterile environments, especially those in which safety and security are important. The Foot Release Plate enables quick, easy, hands-free adjustment of the seat height from any point around the chair.

In addition, the straddle position ensures that the feet are well-planted for exceptional stability and upper body control, providing users with superior upper torso mobility and range of motion. The full 360° of free rotation enables users to easily align to patients and equipment or to reach other work areas as needed. The seat can be tilted forward up to 15°, and the gas lift cylinder allows the height of the seat to be adjusted from 24.8" to 30.3".

Note: Sitting on a Saddle Stool elevates a user higher than a standard seat. Saddle stools are therefore not generally recommended for use at a standard office desk. Please call one of our Product Specialists to discuss your intended use. We will be happy to assist you in selecting the best solution for your needs.

Equipped with special braking castors, the HNDSFREE Sit-Stand Stool rolls freely when the user is seated but stops moving as soon as the user stands up. This innovative feature enhances the overall safety of the work environment, and helps all present maintain their focus on the task at hand.

Both models of the HNDSFREE Sit-Stand Stool feature easily cleaned Black Imitation Leather upholstery and a chromium-plated steel base for durability.

Model 11209 offers all of the above features, with the addition of a firm, height and angle adjustable back support. (Note: The back on the 11209 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.)
