Sleekform Kneeling Chair with Ergonomic Back Support, Adjustable Posture Stool for Home and Office

Unlike most kneeling chairs I found online, this was one of the rare ones which had a back support as well. I've found this to be nice so while I get used to the chair it is easier to adjust and get comfortable. I purchased this chair as I work from home and sit at a desk for long periods of time. Because of the height of my desk and chair, I couldn't get in a good position and would often end up leaning in to see my laptop screen. The result was back pain. After one week of using this chair I've been able to notice a large difference in my back pain going away. I admit that I'm still getting used to the chair, and the knee pad does get some getting use to. Right now I have to adjust periodically as it hurts my knees a bit just while the cushion is getting worn in. My one suggestion would have been for the chair and knee pad to have been memory foam instead of standard foam. That would've I think helped with knee pain. That said, the pain is minimal and has already started going away. What I didn't expect is how I can actually sit in this chair like a normal chair for quick tasks if needed too. Overall, a great purchase.

I had stumbled upon the concept of kneeling chairs after suffering horrible painful unrelenting back pain from sitting in my office chair during tax season crunch. I had purchased an ergonomic keyboard, a mini desk topper to make sure my desk and chair were the proper heights, a laptop stand to raise my laptop even higher to my eye level so as not to hunch over squinting at it, and even a pillow cushion that strapped to the back of my old chair to support the natural arch in my back. I took more breaks, stretched throughout the day, did yoga in the morning, lunch and evening. But none of it helped. My back pain got so bad I had to take a couple days off work and one of those days I spent the whole day in bed. Even 2 different massage therapists couldn’t knead out the pain in my back.So I scoured the internet for solutions and came upon kneeling chairs. The reviews I’d seen were either really good, people with horrible back pain that were able to sit at desks again for long periods of time. Or really bad, claiming it was too hard on the knees. And with these chairs not being necessarily cheap, I selected this chair. Mainly for having the thickest cushions I could find, and the back support.And I’m very glad I picked this one for those 2 reasons. The back support has been super valuable to me in helping to make sure I’m sitting up straight. It’s not a miracle chair, you can still slouch if you’re not paying attention. But I’m certainly sitting up straighter for much longer.The handles on the sides have also been surprisingly useful when I adjust positions.The cushions are very nice and thick. And the material is easy to wipe clean if/when it gets dirty. Though sometimes after kneeling for hours on end I worry about the lifetime of the knee cushion and how long it will hold up over time. I’ve had it for a month and it still inflates back to its original size. I’ll have to update again after more time has passed.After sitting for hours I do start to feel the weight and pressure on my knees and legs, so I’ll readjust or sit on the chair a different way. Let one leg rest, then the other. Even sit on the knee cushion part if I’m really into what I’m working on (luckily I work from home so no one can see this if it looks weird). After a full day of kneeling I will still get tired and need to switch back to my regular office chair for a while. Best not to get rid of you’re other chair while adjusting. I doubt whether anyone can fully adjust to just using this chair exclusively though. Just as with sitting for extended periods of time on anything, our body needs breaks.But overall, I LOVE this chair. It’s just a more natural way of sitting. I thought it would feel super awkward and strange and I wouldn’t know where to comfortably rest my feet when kneeling as there’s no footrests underneath. But from the first moment of putting it together it felt completely natural. It has helped TREMENDOUSLY with my back pain and I don’t slouch or hunch over nearly as much. I’m glad I chose this chair specifically, I don’t think any other chair would’ve sufficed and solved my problems. Highly recommend!

Looked wonderful out of the box. Heavy. Well constructed, EXCEPT the tubular steel that creates the base, and into which the rollers are inserted is very thin walled. ANY resistance when rolling and the tube bends and the wheel collapses. With a heavier gauge tube, or a reinforcing bushing of sorts in the area the wheel is inserted and this is 6 stars.

This chair has been a lifesaver!!!! I've had two back surgeries and a spinal cord stimulator implant for porifimus syndrome. This chair puts my back at it's natural shape and it feels very relaxed. It was very easy to put together, I did it all by myself. The day and knee cushions are both super thick and comfortable. I can sit at my desk so much longer now. I use the back now and then but I'm in such a relaxed position that I really don't feel the need to lean back. I do need to get up and walk around from time to time to stretch my legs until I get used to the chair as you're basically kneeling down on your shins and your knees. Do you just have to get up and stretch once in a while. I used to have a similar chair like this years ago and have been wanting another one. I'm so glad I was finally able to get one!!!!

This product was to high for a standard hight desk. I keep having to lean over, which defeats the purpose, in order to see my computer screen or to write. There is no foot support, so I keep having to put my feet on the middle iron bar. The designed hurt my chins. It seems like most of my support would have been on my knees, but it was not. The picture displayed show the lady with a horizontal seat. No matter what level I put the chair, it always sat at a angle. In order to adjust the hight, you have to get out of the chair and basically on the floor to screw the hydraulic lift up or down. I tried this product for 4 days and then returned it. BTW, you may want to take a picture of how the product comes out of the box so if you have to return it, you can pack it properly. It took me almost a hour trying different combinations to get it all back in the box. I think this is a well made product over all. Loved the leather, loved the wheels and loved the back support. It just was not for me.
