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 MVMNT Foldable Perching Saddle Seat from ErgoVerse is a non-swiveling, folding saddle seat designed for smaller or average sized individuals working at standard or elevated workstations.

The saddle design keeps the toes either in line with the knees (which are splayed and drawn back toward the hips), or even further back - below the hips, rather than extended forward of the knees as they would be on a leaning stool. This makes it possible to work at surfaces built on top of base cabinets or shelves, something that is not possible with traditional chairs (where the knees are too far forward) or leaning/perching seats (where the feet and knees are too far forward). The MVMNT also keeps the torso in an ergonomically desirable upright position, while at the same time providing stability and reducing the need to bend forward from the waist. This posture is especially beneficial when fine control is needed or when greater effort must be exerted. The small back rest offers temporary support for those who like to lean back occasionally to rest their back.

The height of the seat can be adjusted from 20.9" high to 30.7" high. The height of the back rest adjusts independently so individuals are able to position support where it is most needed. The seat and back rest are both padded for comfort and upholstered in black imitation leather for easy cleaning. The MVMNT features a foldaway, adjustable-height, foot-bar to provide a secure base of support when the chair is elevated too high for foot-to-floor contact.

The MVMNT features simple folding hinges, and easy handwheel adjustment of seat, back and footrest heights. The MVMNT is built on a sturdy, rectangular tube steel base that is rated to 264 lbs. Weighing only 18.7 lbs in total, the MVMNT can also be easily transported between venues or job sites.

The CITZ Saddle Seat from ErgoVerse is intended to provide industrial workers with a seating solution that can be an aid to improving their overall health while also offering greater safety in the workplace. The wider stance when straddling a saddle seat provides an extended range of reach, while at the same time ensuring excellent stability and control. As well, the upright stance provided by saddle sitting is known to encourage upper body movement which can lead to better and deeper breathing and has the potential to improve overall circulation.

Both the seat and back rest are formed from firmly cushioned self-surfaced polyurethane foam that can be easily wiped down, ideal for workplaces where regular cleaning may be necessary. The fibreglass-reinforced base is equipped with special self-braking casters which permit the CITZ to roll freely when in use but brake when weight is lifted. This ensures that the seat doesn't roll but rather remains in the same position, adding to the safety and enhancing the ability of the seat to aid workers in maintaining focus on the task at hand. A full 360° of free rotation accommodates alignment to equipment or reaching to other work areas as needed. The gas lift provides a seat height anywhere between 20.9" and 26.4" and the seat also has the option of forward tilt up to 15°. This tilted seat position rotates the pelvis forward, providing a more natural alignment of the back--both healthier and more comfortable for many. For those who need or are looking for back support, this chair is equipped with a removable back rest that offers both height and angle adjustment.

Note: The outer dimensions of the back support are 14" wide with a 2.5" deep curvature in the middle. Those with broader builds may find the firmness of the concave edges on the back less than ideal for comfort.
Note: Sitting on a saddle stool results in a greater elevation than a standard seat. Saddle stools are therefore not generally recommended as a replacement for sitting at a standard office desk. Please call one of our Product Specialists to discuss your intended use of the CITZ Saddle Seat. We will be happy to aid you in finding the solution that best meets your specific needs.

The EZSIT Comfort Elite Sit-Stand Stool from Mey Chair Systems offers users looking for a sturdy leaning or sitting stool a larger-than-average seating surface, combined with extra cushioning for superior comfort. Height adjustment is accomplished via a gas spring that also serves to absorb impact as the user lowers themselves onto the seat. Two ranges of seat height adjustment are now available to provide seating options for people ranging in height from barely 5' tall to 6'6" tall.

Note: Users up to 5'9" tall should consider model numbers 11128 or 11129 (seat height adjustment ranges from 24" to 31"). Users who are between about 5'6" tall to 6'6" tall should consider model numbers 11122 or 11123 (seat height adjustment ranges from 28" to 37").

The EZSIT Comfort Elite models were developed in response to user feedback about other options in sit-stand seating. Many users found the seats and backs on other models too small and narrow, making those models uncomfortable for extended work sessions. The EZSIT Comfort Elite Sit-Stand Stool, with its increased cushioning and greater surface areas, can provide comfort and support to users small and large, and for lengthy work sessions. The large 18.7" by 13" seat tilts from 0° to 15° and generous padding provides support without sacrificing comfort. Models 11122 and 11128 include a matching, heavily padded oversized back with a shallow curvature to accommodate broad-backed individuals. Independent angle adjustment on the back of these models ensures that a comfortable upright posture can be maintained regardless of the chosen seat angle.

Users who have adopted a leaning or semi-seated stance over either traditional seating or full-time standing might well appreciate the extra comfort offered by the EZSIT Comfort Elite Sit-Stand Stool.

Note: The RISON is now available from ErgoVerse as the RISON Leaning Stool.

The RISON Sit-Stand Leaning Stools from Mey Chair Systems offer users the options of sitting or leaning throughout the workday. 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 upright 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 fixed seat offers an infinitely adjustable height range and a forward-locking tilt adjustment ranging from 5° to 20°. The polyurethane seat provides a firm yet cushioned seating surface with raised texture bumps. Model 11120 also features a firm polyurethane back support with independent angle adjustment to ensure that a comfortable upright posture can be maintained regardless of the chosen seat angle.
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. The EZSIT Comfort Elite Sit-Stand Stool from Mey Chair Systems features a broader back better suited to users of broader build.

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.

With two height ranges now available, there is a RISON suitable for users from well under 5' to over 6 feet. Models 11113 and 11120 (back version) offer a seat height adjustable from 26" - 35.5" and are suited to users from about 5'2" up to 6'6". The model 11130 is intended for shorter users and should accommodate those of heights ranging from 4'5" to 5'5".

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 GIGCHR Folding Sit-Stand Chair from Mey Chair Systems is a temporary, foldable seating solution for a wide range of users. Designed for portability and weighing only 18.7 lbs, the GIGCHR enables musicians, public speakers and other users 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, enabling users to position it to provide support where needed. 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 when the chair is elevated, and can easily be folded out of the way when not required or for storage and transport.

Optional accessories include a guitar stand and a beverage holder.

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.)

The RSTMOR Sit-Stand Chair from Mey Chair Systems is specifically designed to meet the needs of users with larger builds. Dual rectangular steel tube construction and extra-thick padding on the larger than average seat are combined with easy adjustability to create a chair that is both functional and durable. This chair offers users the option of sitting at a greater height than traditional chairs, greatly reducing the stress which repeated sitting and standing can put on the knees. An adjustable footrest provides relaxation for the feet and lower legs. For larger users who are working in a warehouse or assembly environment with raised counters this seat can enable them to reduce the load on their legs and joints while still being able to reach the work surface. The chair also folds for storage.

The STEPL Chair from Mey Chair Systems provides a comfortable seat for those working at fixed elevated workstations. A cushioning, gas spring lift provides a seat height range from 23.2" to 33.1", sufficient for most elevated worksurfaces. The STEPL has a wide seat and back, both with 2" padding for comfort. The angles of the seat and back are independently adjustable and the seat back is height adjustable, features that enable individual users to position support where it is most beneficial.

Two footrest options are available. Model 07030 features a 120° steel footrest with an aggressively treaded surface for safety. Model 07033 is equipped with a large 22.8" diameter heavy steel footring that provides a convenient 360° of fixed support for the feet a minimum of 7.5" above the floor.
