Ever wondered if you're really getting the most out of your chair? Wonder no more! We've put together a comprehensive guide that covers all mainstream chair adjustment types.

Standard Controls: these controls are fitted as standard to most task chairs.

Front Lever: Seat Height

The ideal height is so that your legs are at an angle of just over 90°

Back Lever: Back Angle

Lock in the preferred position, ideally vertical

Optional Extras: Some task chairs have additional controls that allow you to adapt your chair even more!

Middle Lever: Seat Angle

Lock in the preferred position, typically horizontal

Seat Slide

Lift the lever, slide the seat forward or backwards until there's a 3-finger gap between the back of knee and the front edge of the seat

Adjustable Arms

Adjust the height until your arm is bent at an angle of around 90°.

Ratchet Back

To adjust the back height, lift the back up to the desired height. To return to the lowest setting, lift the back up as high as possible, and left it fall back to the bottom.

Inflatable Lumbar Support

Squeeze the balloon to inflate the lumbar support, press the button to deflate it.

Positive Posture

To inflate the base, press the button under the front right of the chair when not sitting down. To deflate the base, sit on the chair and press the button.

Don't forget the accessories that make work life

a little bit easier!
