The Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat was developed to provide those of smaller or more slender build with a seating option better suited to their needs. This saddle stool features a comfortable split-saddle seat with the added benefit of splay and tilt adjustment for a personalized fit. The primary design is very similar to other Kanewell Twin Saddle models, with the saddle offering the same amount of cushioning and the same degree of splay at the front. However, because this seat is specifically intended for those of smaller build, the seat halves do not separate at the rear as on the full-size Kanewell Twin saddles, but rather pivot from a single point at the rear of the saddle to achieve the outward splay at the front. In addition to the splay feature the saddle also features the same locking tilt that permits individuals to position the seat at an angle that is most suitable for their needs or comfort.

Saddle seats are well-suited for use in active office environments, at raised counters, elevated workstations, or anywhere there is a need to be able to move into close proximity to the working area—such as dental, medical, or veterinary practices. The upright posture provided by the saddle-seating encourages better back posture, provides a much greater range of movement than that available from traditional seats, and enables virtually effortless movement about a workspace. The split-saddle is designed to reduce pressure points and improve airflow for a cooler and more comfortable experience, especially during longer periods of concentrated work. In order to meet the needs of those of smaller build the saddle on the Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat is both narrower and shallower than the standard seat (see comparison here). As well, as has been described earlier, it also has much less separation (see comparison here).

Upholstered in high grade Vinyl that is waterproof and resistant to most common cleaners and disinfectant formulations, the Kanewell Twin Compact seats are available in two height ranges to accommodate individuals of varying heights. Large diameter (60 mm) casters offer smooth movement throughout the workspace. Optional accessories include a footring to provide stability and comfort support when the chair is elevated (the height of the footring is adjustable independently of the height of the chair), the 360° Arm Accessory, and fixed glides as an alternative to the casters.

* Note: Saddle seats are not typically promoted with backrests as the saddle stance naturally encourages better back posture. The addition of a backrest may also limit movement and reduce the ergonomic benefit of a saddle-style seat, as there can be a tendency to relax against the back, reducing the level of core muscle engagement. It is also more difficult to mount and dismount from a saddle when a backrest is present. If a backrest is desired the Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Chair with Articulating Backrest is available as a backrest version.

Le Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat a été conçu pour offrir aux personnes de petite taille une option d'assise mieux adaptée à leurs besoins. Ce tabouret de selle a un siège confortable à selle divisée, avec l'avantage supplémentaire d'un ajustement de l'écartement et de l'inclinaison pour un siège personnalisé. La conception principale est très similaire à celle des autres modèles de Kanewell Twin Saddle, la selle offrant la même quantité de rembourrage et le même degré d'écartement à l'avant. Toutefois, comme cette selle est spécifiquement destinée aux personnes de petite taille, les moitiés de la selle ne se séparent pas à l'arrière comme sur les selles Kanewell Twin de pleine grandeur, mais pivotent plutôt à partir d'un point unique à l'arrière de la selle pour obtenir l'écartement vers l'extérieur à l'avant. En plus de l'écartement, la selle présente également la même inclinaison de verrouillage qui permet aux individus de positionner le siège à l'angle qui convient le mieux à leurs besoins ou à leur confort.

Les siège selle sont idéal pour l'usage dans les environnements de bureau dans lequel être actif est désiré, aux comptoirs ou postes de travail soulevés, ou n'importe où qui nécessite être en proche proximiter de l'espace de travail--comme dentiste, médicaux, ou vétérinaire. Le posture vertical offert par le siège selle encourage une meilleure posture, offre une gamme de mouvements plus grande que les sièges traditionelles, et permet le mouvement sans éffort dans l'espace de travail. La selle divisée est conçue pour réduire les points de pression et améliorer la circulation de l'air pour une expérience plus fraîche et plus confortable, en particulier pendant les longues périodes de travail concentré. Afin de répondre aux besoins des personnes de petite taille, le Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Seat est plus étroite aussi que moins profonde que la selle standard (voir la comparaison ici). Également, comme décrit avant, elle est beaucoup moins séparée (voir la comparaison ici).

Rembourrée avec Vinyle de bonne qualité qui est imperméable et résistant aux produits nettoyants et désinfectants les plus communs, les Kanewell Twin Compact seats sont disponibles en deux hauteurs pour s'adapter aux personnes de tailles différentes. Des roulettes de grand diamètre (60 mm) offre le mouvement lisse à travers l'espace de travail. Les accessoires optionnels comprennent un repose-pieds (en forme d'anneau) pour assurer la stabilité et le confort lorsque le siège est élevé (la hauteur du footring est ajustable indépendamment de la hauteur du siège), le 360° Arm Accessory, et des patins solide (fixed glides) comme option alternative aux roulettes.

*Veuillez noter: : les Sièges en Selle ne sont généralement pas proposés avec des dossiers, car la position en selle favorise naturellement une meilleure posture du dos. En additionnant un dossier peut également limiter les mouvements et réduire l'avantage ergonomique d'un siège de type selle, car il peut y avoir une tendance à se détendre contre le dos, ce qui réduit le niveau d'engagement des muscles centraux. Il est également plus difficile de monter et de descendre d'une selle lorsqu'un dossier est présent. Si un dossier est souhaité, le Kanewell Twin Compact Adjustable Saddle Chair with Articulating Backrest est disponible en version avec dossier.

The SRLYN Perching Seat from ErgoVerse offers those working at height-adjustable workstations the option of an elevated perching seat or a leaning stance. The SRLYN helps to reduce strain on the legs and feet as well as on the muscles of the lower back and core. The leaning position also minimizes the effort required to return to a fully standing position and permits a greater range of motion and greater reach than does a standard seated position.

The SRLYN Perching Seat features an infinitely adjustable height range from 26.4" to 35.8" and locking forward tilt adjustment from 5° up to 20°. The 14.2" wide by 12.6" deep formed polyurethane seat provides a large firm cushioned seating surface with an integrated handle for ease of movement. (Note: Individuals under 5'6" may find this seat too high but those who are taller might benefit from its greater upper range as it can accommodate heights up to 6'6".)

Strong nylon glides engage the floor to ensure secure positioning of the seat. The convenient integrated handle can be used to tip the SRLYN onto the small transport rollers incorporated into the rear glides for movement about a workspace. The unique design of the heavy-duty textured black tubular steel base maximizes stability while also greatly reducing the risk of tripping for passersby. Though this ruggedly designed seat has an industrial look it can also work well in an office setting.

The FootFidget is an innovative device which addresses the desire for movement in order to assist in maintaining focus on a task, something experienced by many people, young and old alike. The FootFidget provides a discrete means of releasing energy as individuals unobtrusively "bounce" their foot. The resistance bands offer immediate tactile feedback, notifying the muscles that activity is occurring. The included bands offer two levels of response or can be combined to create a third higher level of resistance - more suited for activity while in a standing position at a counter or sit-stand desk. Requiring no more space than a traditional footrest, the FootFidget can also serve as a footrest while offering the additional benefits of encouraging circulation. With 3 height settings the Fidget Bar can be positioned at a height that meets individual needs.

The FootFidget is by no means restricted to the office environment. It can also be used for a variety of other purpose, including improving circulation in the legs for those who have limited mobility or may be restricted to a chair or seat, for balance training, to aid in addressing "restless legs syndrome", or even as a passive means of burning calories through casual use while relaxing at home.

The FootFidget is lightweight (2.5 lbs) and is easily moved to where it is needed.

The LOBAK Perching Seats from ErgoVerse are ideal as temporary perching seats. The short raised back encourages individuals to sit upright on the seat, adopting a posture that encourages correct spinal alignment. The tilt-adjustable seat also offers the option of using the LOBAK as a leaning stool.

The firm polyurethane foam seat is waterproof and highly resistant to cuts or punctures, with raised ridges to encourage air flow for a cooler surface. Height adjustment is accomplished with a gas spring that also serves as a shock absorber by providing a cushioning effect when weight is lowered onto the seat. The angle of the seat is adjustable from 3° to 17° to permit each person to find the position that offers the greatest comfort.

The LOBAK Perching Seat is available in two models. Model 11002 features a locking clamp that secures the seat in an upright position but permits the base to fold up against the seat support for storage. Seat height on the 11002 ranges from 23.2" to 30.7" and is suitable for those of average height. Model 11050 features the same seat on a chromed steel, fixed (non-folding) base. With a seat height range from 24.4" up to 34.6", this model is still suitable for most average height individuals but can also comfortably meet the requirements of those standing up to approximately 6'4".

The Focal Fidget Active Stool from Safco Products is a lightweight portable stool that encourages users to actively engage in subtle movements while still remaining seated. The Fidget features a slightly curved bottom plate that enables continuous rocking movements in all directions. The contoured EVA Foam seat cushion provides a comfortable seating experience, whether for just a couple of minutes or for more extended periods. The base is constructed of ABS Plastic and reinforced Nylon with a steel support column capable of supporting up to 300 lbs.

The Fidget Active Stool comes in 3 heights to serve the seating requirements of a wide range of people. The 18" and 22" models will serve most adults for sitting at a traditional office desk or table height, while the 14" model is better suited to the needs of children sitting at a lower height of table or desk.
Note: The Fidget Active Stool is not designed or intended as a long-term seating solution and as such should not be considered for this application. There are numerous other traditional and alternative seating solutions much better suited for long-term sitting.

The 360° Arm Accessory from Kanewell can rotate to any position around the seat, enabling it to be used as an armrest for either the left or right arm, as a forward leaning or elbow support, or as a stretcher bar for the back. It can easily be locked into position when stability is required. The height of the 360° Arm Support is also adjustable so users are able to move it to the elevation that offers them the most suitable support. The 360° Arm Support can be used by anyone who may need to stabilize themselves while leaning. Dentists and Dental Assistants who are often leaning in or forward are able to let the Arm Support bear their weight, reducing strain and muscle fatigue in the lower back. Leaning against a stable fixed support also ensures a greater degree of control, making this accessory a valid consideration for anyone required to stretch outside of their immediate comfort zone while completing tasks requiring fine control or dexterity.

The 360° Arm Accessory features a thick layer of polyurethane foam which creates a supportive but cushioned resting surface. The high quality vinyl upholstery is resistant to a wide range of common cleaning solution making it suitable for applications were regular cleaning is required.Note: It is generally recommended that any cleaner be carefully tested in an inconspicuous location prior to full application. Sample testing swatches are available in advance upon request if there is concern regarding a particular cleaning agent.

The 360° Arm Accessory comes as a kit which includes both the 360° Arm Support Accessory as well as a replacement pneumatic spring. Installation on a new Kanewell Twin Adjustable Saddle Stool is done with ease, as part of the stool assembly. Retrofitting a fully assembled Stool requires removal and replacement of the existing gas lift cylinder with the unit included in the kit, thereby ensuring that the Stool retains is original range of height adjustment.

The new Stance Angle Chair from Health Postures reinterprets the industry leading concepts of their original Stance Chair. Workers are once again able to enjoy the benefits of an office chair which effortlessly converts between Sitting, Kneeling and Assisted Standing. The Stance Angle Chair is the ideal seating solution for true Sit-Stand Workstations as it supplies an ergonomic "seating" solution for each style of working. Ahead of its time in addressing the requirements of the Sit-Stand working environment, the Stance has now come of age in a streamlined, more compact version—the Stance Angle.

The innovative design of the Stance Angle Chair makes it an ideal companion to sit-stand workstations, enabling workers to seamlessly transition between Sitting, Kneeling, Assisted Standing (Leaning) and Standing throughout their workday. The freedom to effortlessly move between different postures will encourage regular movement, a key factor in achieving a healthy active-working environment. Unlike traditional seating which needs to be moved out of the way when moving from sitting to standing, the Stance Angle Chair simply adapts to the desired posture, even offering a third position—"Kneeling"— which actively encourages correct spinal alignment and can aid in strengthening lower back muscles. When in the "Assisted Standing" mode it is possible to rest against the back of the Stance Angle while also reducing the load on the lower limbs and joints, further reducing overall fatigue and contributing to a higher degree of alertness and greater productivity. The Stance Angle also features easily adjustable armrests which provide support to the arms in all three positions, reducing the risk of strain to the neck and shoulders even when standing.

The ease with which the Stance Angle Chair moves between working positions removes any obstacle for those who seek to actively shift between positions throughout the day. It also facilitates greater engagement in work as circulation is increased through the increased movement, leading to a reductioin in fatigue.

The Amazone Tilting Saddle Chair from Score is a high quality one-piece saddle seat that is designed for those of average to smaller build. The saddle of the Amazone Tilting Saddle Chair is a slightly narrower fit or "cut" than many other saddle seats and has a moderate pommel rise at the front. The smaller dimensions make it better suited for use by those of slender or petite builds. The narrower cut also means that it can accommodate positions higher than the 45° downward thigh angle commonly recommended for saddle sitting. This can be of value in situations such as dental care where the greater stability of a "standing" position may be required while still having the supportive benefits of "sitting". The integrated tilting function lets the pommel height be adjusted to personalize the saddle position and optimize comfort. The posture created by the Amazone Tilting Saddle Chair means that most individuals will find the majority of their weight supported by the chair with balance and movement shared between the feet.

When set at an appropriate height a saddle seat can help restore the natural S-Curve in the spine - resulting in a more upright posture and better support for the back. This improved posture can significantly reduce the strain on the lower back, an issue that is common in many client-focused fields of work (dental, aesthetics, tattooing, etc). Of course it can also be beneficial to anyone who is able to position their desk or work at the higher elevation the saddle seat provides.

The Amazone Tilting Saddle Chair is currently in stock with Black Stamskin® artificial leather for extreme durability and comfort. Those who want a unique saddle may want to consider a special order where they can choose from additional materials and a range of single or bi-colour options.

Those of larger build may be interested in the Jumper Tilting Saddle Chair which has a broader and deeper saddle. And for those who might wish to engage in a more active sitting experience there are also Amazone Balance and Jumper Balance models that encourage continuous movement throughout the day.

The Stance Move chair's unique design lets workers shift between multiple sitting positions throughout the day. Designed with Sit-Stand workstations in mind, it provides three distinct seating positions - Forward Sloped Sitting, Kneeling, and Assisted Standing. Each of these options moves workers away from the static closed-core position that traditional seating creates. The backless design encourages them to maintain an upright stance by actively supporting their pelvis in a forward tilt which improves back posture. This position encourages strengthening of core muscles as they are required to maintain torso balance at all three settings. By removing the seat back the risk of slouching or rounding of the lower back is significantly reduced, which in turn can reduce the risk and occurrence of lower back pain which is often related to traditional seating.

With a simple move of a lever the Stance Move converts into a kneeling stance, a well-known posture which positively encourages proper spine positioning by tilting the pelvis even further forward than the Forward Tilt mode. The Kneeling position has been used in many workplaces throughout the years. The thick kneeling cushions support the knees and spread pressure to enable workers to comfortably maintain this position for extended periods.

For those who prefer a more upright position or who wish to fully vary their seating throughout the day, the Assisted Standing position is the third position offered. Those using Sit-Stand workstations have well have found that standing for extended periods can be exhausting. This is due to the standing position requiring that muscles to be held in constant tension in order to be able to maintain that static position. As these individuals have discovered, muscle fatigue can occur even in a standing position. As well, the lower legs and feet begin to tire over the course of the day, resulting in an overall loss of energy. This loss of energy will translate into a more "slumped" posture as the body tires. The slumped position then further accentuates the fatigue as it puts strain on muscles and tendons which are already tired from extended use. The Assisted Standing position is intended to address this as it takes a percentage of the weight load and transfers it to the chair rather than placing it directly over the feet and legs. The enables the muscles of the legs and lower back to relax, thereby reducing the fatigue related to continuous tension. The release of muscle tension in the lower legs will also permit better bloodflow in the legs, something which is a known concern related to extended static standing.

The Stance Move is designed for users up to 5'9". Taller individuals will benefit from the Stance Move EXT 5050 which comes with a seat extension.

The Amazone Balance saddle style chair from Score is an excellent solution for those concerned about ergonomics and who want to move away from static seating. The Amazone combines the posture-correcting benefits of a saddle seat with the "Balance" mechanism that permits the seat to continuously shift and adjust in response to movement throughout the day.

The Balance mechanism is located directly below the seat, letting the seat move and shift with any body movement. In order to accommodate diverse requirements the degree of resistance on the movement is easily adjusted with a few turns of the ring located just below the seat. This ring also doubles as a height adjustment release meaning that there is no need to reach and find a single lever when height adjustment is required, as the ring is accessible at any position.

The saddle of the Amazone Balance is a slightly narrower fit or "cut" than many other saddle seats and has a moderate pommel rise at the front. The smaller dimensions make it better suited for use by those of slender or petite builds. The narrower cut also means that it can accommodate positions higher than the 45° downward thigh angle commonly recommended for saddle sitting. This can be of value in situations such as dental care where the greater stability of a "standing" position is required while still having the supportive benefits of "sitting". The posture created by the Amazone Balance means that most individuals will find the majority of their weight supported by the chair with the balance shared between the feet.

The Amazone Balance is currently in stock with premium 2-tone Capri Blue/Black Stamskin® artificial leather for extreme durability and comfort.
