"...The chair itself has an adjustable height/angle by turning of a dial that is built-in under the seat...." Read more

Decent
3 out of 5 stars
Decent
Chair quality is fairly good but I had a major issue. The handle to adjust the seat angle came with a faulty thread so it doesn’t screw up fully, leaving a gap. This causes the chair cushion to bounce at times. I contacted Amazon and they said my only option would be to return the chair. What a shame because the chair does make it easier to maintain my posture. What I plan on doing is rethreading it at a local machine shop. But this should’ve never been the case to begin with had the thread not arrived faulty.

    So happy with the Sleekform Ergonomic Kneeling Chair. I have been looking for a new chair for my home office that would be more comfortable for sitting at the computer for many hours. I needed a chair that would help with my posture and keep me from slouching so much. In my search for a new chair, I came across the Sleekform Ergonomic Kneeling Chair. This chair is exactly what I was looking for in an office chair. The design of the chair helps me to stay mindful of my posture and helps me correct it by being able to easily adjust how I am sitting. If I am putting too much pressure on one part of my body, I can easily change positions and still maintain better posture while sitting for long hours. The rocking motion is a great way to stay active while sitting and for me has a calming effect. It is my favorite part of the chair! The chair also works well for people of different heights. I am 5’8” and my son is over 6ft tall. He is all legs and he is able to sit in the chair very comfortably and he really likes the rocking motion too.
    The chair is well designed and sturdy. It comes unassembled, but is packaged very well and all the parts are labeled clearly - I really like that the company was so thoughtful on the labeling. The hardware even comes in a sealed set of bags. And the directions are very easy to follow. I did find the directions had a few minor issues, but it did not cause me any issue with assembling the chair. I took my time putting it together, but I believe you could assemble it pretty quickly if you are more familiar with putting furniture together.
    Some of the other great features I appreciate in the chair are: The cushions for the seat and legs. They are much thicker than some of the other kneeling chairs I found. The felt strips included for the bottom of the chair that comes in contact with the floor. This is really nice if you have floors that can be damaged. And I like the black painted wood. The paint job is very well done and the chair looks very streamlined and modern. 
    I am really happy with the chair and highly recommend it if you are looking for a comfortable chair.

    Update: my son liked it so much, I bought him one. It really helps to have a comfortable chair since he is home for school while we are in online school mode for Vovid-19. Still highly recommend the chair.

    I purchased this product because I acquired severe lower back pain due to my line of work. I deal poker for a living, and sometimes have to sit for 12+ hours. Using a regular chair puts heavy strain on my lower back especially since I am constantly reaching and twisting in addition to sitting for long periods of time. After my shifts I could barely stand up straight because of the crippling lower back strain. I spent unreasonable amounts of money on chiropractic care and massage therapy just to deal. (no pun intended) I finally went to see a physical rehabilitation specialist at a back and spine center, and she informed me I was using the wrong muscles to support myself while I worked, because the muscles I should be using for support were weak and needed strengthening (gluteus medius). She gave me some exercises to strengthen these muscles, and stretches to relieve the muscles/bones that were being overworked (and causing the lower back pain). Upon doing these exercises, I started to feel better, however, the chair I was using at work seemed to set me back. (no pun intended) I started dealing poker on my knees during work to stretch the overworked muscles, and bring me relief during work. Someone then suggested I purchase one of these kneeling stools, and it was the best decision I have made for my back. Not only has this chair COMPLETELY relieved me of my back pain during work, but it simultaneously helped me strengthen the correct muscles I need to help my back support system function properly (core, thigh, and gluteus medius). I have been using this chair now for several weeks, and it has made a huge difference. I sleep better at night, and I'm not always stretching my back in public all the time because it hurts. I am not constantly trying to adjust my back bones. I am able to stand up from the poker table without being hunched over for a few minutes afterwards anymore. I have saved money on chiropractic care, and massages. I never had to go back to the physical therapist, either. It definitely takes some getting used to, as it bruised my shins after the first few times I used it, but I think my shins have gotten stronger as well, because they don't hurt or bruise anymore. Muy Thai fighters get kicked in the shins all the time, and their shins get stronger, so this really is possible. I've also learned to unhinge my legs and sit with my legs spread and my knees at 90 degree angles, with my butt sticking out, to break up the hours. It's amazing to feel the amount of pressure on my shins, and to put into perspective that was the same amount of pressure I used to put on my lower back. I placed a pillow underneath my shins to help ease that pain, and just purchased a memory foam pillow today to see if it will help. This is an amazing product, and you should definitely give it a try if you are experiencing lower back pains from prolonged sitting.

    Reviewed in Canada on September 14, 2020
    Color: BlackVerified Purchase
    i really like this chair, my only notes to potential buyers are that 1. it does take some time, especially on your shins, to get used to. i've had the chair for about a month now, and i'm still not completely used to it and change my position really frequently (like one or both feet on the floor, etc.) – to be fair, i am not at my desk all day or every day, so if you plan to use this chair for a 9-5 type of situation, you may get used to it a lot faster. my shins also hurt a lot less and after way longer on the chair compared to the first few days i had it. 2. i am 5'8'' with a 27 inch desk, and me and the chair fit great at my desk BUT – and this isn't the chair's fault, just something to keep in mind – my laptop is so much lower down from me now compared to my old chair/desk posture, it's a strain on my neck and eyes to look down at it. you may want to consider something to raise your laptop/monitor up if you think this will bother you. 3. the instructions were somewhat vague/contradictory at points, but nothing too hard to figure out yourself (basically something was on the wrong side of a piece OR the instructions were wrong, and it was confusing me for 20 minutes until i decided to just go with my gut/eyes LOL, then all was well). overall though, i'm really happy with the chair, my posture does feel a lot better when i'm at my desk, and i appreciate that it rocks as i like to fidget a lot when sitting down and this provides a good outlet for that.

    I've had the Sleekform Austin for about a month now, and it has exceeded my expectations. It's a very comfortable and versatile chair, and has been a game changer for daily office work. The design is stable, it rocks well, and the plywood has a nice flex to it. The cushions are comfortable and broke in well over the first two weeks.

    The chair was easily assembled in approx. 15-20 mins. The instructions and labels were clear, and all parts were included. I used an impact driver during assembly, but don't recommend it; the bolts have soft heads, and I stripped a couple in the process. The supplied hex tool is all you need. Nothing has required retightening after a month of hard rocking.

    I originally tried to order straight from the company because I appreciated their designs, but they couldn't ship to me in Canada. A representative got in touch with me right away to direct me to their Amazon store for the solution, and she was extremely helpful and courteous.

    I kept my conventional office chair in case I wanted to switch it up from time to time, but I haven't used it since. To be honest, my lower back aches just to look at it. Thanks again to the Sleekform crew for all their great work!

    Reviewed in Canada on September 4, 2020

    I bought one of these a few weeks ago, and liked it so much I ordered a second one, all black this time. Well, I don't know what happened in between, or if I was just lucky the first time, but setup was way harder the second time -mostly because, for one of the knee pads, the bolt socket was not quite in front of where the bolt landed. I ended up being able to move it enough, but at that price, I would expect things to fit properly. Moreover, the two knee pads are not quite the same density, so I tend to slant on one side. Still love the idea and the look, though
