Kneeling Chairs work immediately to improve posture, stimulate movement, & keep joints & muscles active while sitting. There are dozens of different makes and models of kneeling chair... so which one is right for you?
The Varier Variable Balans - The original, the most ergonomic and the best. Designed by legendary ergonomic designer Peter Opsvik. Varier kneeling chairs are unique in being perfectly angled to prevent knee pressure, with lots of movement built in to trigger your balance reflex and keep your core strong. They also use materials that are designed to last decades.
Varier kneeling chairs (Variable, Variable Plus, Thatsit and Wing) are the best, and we have tested thousands of kneeling chairs over the last 35 years. To read more about the value of Movement when sitting Click Here.
Variable - IN STOCKThis beautiful chair is amazingly good for zoom calls, for intensive keyboard work, and for long telephone calls. The integrated backrest on this Variable Plus (And the 'Thatsit' Chair) have made this the 1st Choice of thousands, especially our clients with demanding jobs who want to feel great before, during and after work.
Why is the Variable Plus chair so good?
The Variable Plus is based on the iconic Variable, one of the greatest chairs ever designed. The Variable Plus encompasses Backinaction's three core essentials of healthy sitting: Movement, Balance, and Forward Tilt. And yet, moment by moment, without any knobs to adjust, the integrated backrest of the Plus allows users to have an "ahhhh" moment. In short the Plus feels joyful, an amazing sitting experience.
Variable Plus - IN STOCKWe believe the Thatsit is the ultimate ergonomic kneeling chair because it allows the most movement and offers the greatest support:
Made in the UK, with great workmanship, and high-quality materials: This chair is built to last. This Ergonomic kneeling chair is great value for short-term, medium, and occasional use 2-4 hours daily.
Fixed chairs like this are fantastic but don't have the variety you need for longer (8-10) hours of sitting.
Like the Multi the Putnam's Posture Chair is quickly folded to lay flat, making it a good choice if you want to use it for an hour say, and then put it away. Or for transporting from place to place.
Posture ChairOverall, the Multi kneeling chair strikes a balance between comfort, quality, and convenience, making it an excellent option for occasional use and short periods of working.
Beyond this length of time (2 hours) we would recommend the Wing, Variable, Variable Plus or Thatsit.
The Multi is made to an exceptionally high quality and has a 7 year warranty. It's a great chair if you need to sit for an hour or so and then fold it away.
One of the best and most versatile chairs, the Actulum is in stock. Next day delivery is available, so sublime comfort and ergonomics is just one click away!
Actulum - IN STOCKThe Wing is an unconventional working chair with its height adjustment, swivel and tilt functions, and castors for hard or soft floors.
The height adjustability makes it ideal at any work space even if your desk or table is higher than standard table heights.
The Varier Wing promotes active sitting and keeps you breathing deeply, giving your energy levels and concentration an invaluable boost.
This is the ultimate ergonomic chair for relaxation. It is extremely comfortable and gives the best possible support when reclining. The Gravity recliner meets almost every seating requirement for exceptional ergonomics without strain.
Leaning forward, the Gravity Balans chair can be used as a kneeling chair. Shift your weight slightly backwards for an upright position, placing your feet on either the floor or shin cushions for variation. To assume a reclined position, gently push away from the ground.
Varier GravityOver the last 35 years we've tried a huge range of kneeling chairs, from the cheapest to the most expensive, from the sleek and beautiful to the frankly weird; and we have whittled them down to just a few of the very best and reviewed them all below.
Kneeling chairs make sitting fun, but more importantly they increase health and productivity at the same time. The key to all good chairs is movement, forwards-and-backwards, side-to-side, up-and-down, the more movement the better. We call this active sitting. Once you achieve active sitting your core muscles will become stronger and you will find your posture will improve overnight, joints will be less stiff, and you will become more focused and have higher concentration levels.
When you sit on a kneeling chair you balance the spine properly over the pelvis – i.e. good posture! – On the best kneeling chairs, the rock of the chair is exceptionally good at helping you to keep good posture, even when you are tired.
We couldn't be more passionate about Varier furniture. Its quite simply the best. The Variable, Thatsit and Multi are the original keeling chairs and no others come close in terms of comfort and quality - we know, we have tried thousands.
