Advanced Ergonomics @ Internet Prices

The Freedom chair; the fully adjustable chair that thinks for itself, freeing you from knobs, locks and levers.

One of the world's foremost chair designers, Niels Diffrient, created the next generation in chair ergonomics. The chair's design is based on the concept that difficulty of adjustment inhibits use. That the more complicated a chair is, the less frequently users will take advantage of its adjustment options.

The ideal chair would be one with mechanisms so easy and natural the users is almost unaware of them. Unlike the highly complicated Steelcase chairs or the Herman Miller Aeron chairs which are almost proudly complex, the Freedom chair is simple to use. Worth Magazine said: "With the Aeron, one feels almost tempted to count the paddles and dials. The most sophisticated thing about the Freedom is its unassuming simplicity."
