Contact mechanism
SITNESS 10 a mechanism that allows you to choose the desired angle of the backrest and to lock it in several positions. One of the most important features of the mechanism is that the seat and backrest are not connected. When the backrest moves, the seat remains fixed.
Our experts recommend that chairs with a contact mechanism should be chosen for people who usually prefer a fixed sitting position when sitting and appreciate a greater angle between the legs and the torso when reclined.
The firmness of the chair’s oscillation can be adjusted individually according to the weight of the sitter. Ergonomic office chair SITNESS 10 with pneumatic lift easily rises or lowers to the desired seating height. Ergonomic chair SITNESS 10 with contact mechanism recommends for sitting for more than 8 hours.
CONTACT MECHANISM
SITNESS mechanism
SITNESS is an ergonomic dynamic mechanism. It has been medically proven that the chair’s three-dimensional dynamic mechanism resembles sitting on a ball – the seat moves forward, backwards and sideways with the body, adapting to the body’s movements. This makes for a very comfortable seating experience, as the back muscles are not strained – sitting in this chair relaxes the intervertebral discs in the spine, which improves blood circulation.
Although the benefits of SITNESS have been proven by medical studies, some clients find the dynamic mechanism uncomfortable and unstable. If you are unsure whether SITNESS is really for you, we recommend that you contact one of our consultants or try out a chair with the SITNESS mechanism in person in our showroom.
SITNESS 10 is also recommended by our partner HEALTHY BACK SCHOOL.
SITNESS MECHANISM
Ergonomic desk chair SITNESS 10 with 2D armrests
The armrests of this chair provide support for the arms. This reduces tension on the arms, shoulders, neck and hand muscles. This is particularly important when sitting for long periods of time. When work is finished, the armrests can be used as a support when standing up, thus reducing the strain on the pelvic muscles.
The armrests can be raised or lowered to the desired position with the push of a button. If the armrests are locked too high or too low, they may interfere with your body movements and cause discomfort.
It is recommended to choose an armrest position that allows the arms to be bent at about 90° while sitting at the desk, with the shoulder blades naturally relaxed and in a straight horizontal line. It is important to ensure that when sitting in a chair, the legs of the person should be at a straight 90° angle to the floor.
SITNESS 10 is an excellent ergonomic solution. If you have any questions about how to adjust your ergonomic chair, please contact our consultants.

Tapestry seat and backrest
This SITNESS 10 is covered with tapestry fabric. This type of fabric is particularly popular because it is soft and pleasant to the touch and comes in a wide range of colours. The tapestry chairs are very easy to match with the surrounding furniture and decor.
Tapestry is a relatively durable and long-lasting material, so the chair can be used comfortably for many years.
It is worth mentioning that chairs covered in mesh or tapestry sometimes can become a favorite place for cats to scratch their claws. Therefore, before buying an office chair SITNESS 10, consider your pet’s taste as well. If this may be a problem, we suggest you contact the specialists at the Chair Center to find the right solution for you.
Adjustable backrest height
SITNESS 10 has a height-adjustable backrest. Often the backrests are slightly curved to replicate the curve of the spine. The height of the backrest of the chair allows to adjust so that the lumbar region of the body is comfortably supported and there is no discomfort.
Height adjustment allows the backrest to be adapted to different people of different heights and body shapes. The adjustable backrest height is a great feature for chairs that will be used by more than one person or for tall/low people. For more information on how to adjust your chair correctly, read our blog or contact our consultants.
BACKREST HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Ergonomically shaped seat and backrest
Our customers are particularly fond of Office chair SITNESS 10 for its aesthetically pleasing backrest. Not only can it is stunning to look at, but it also serves a functional purpose – the moulded backrest follows the natural trajectory of the spine and supports the back muscles. The additional support replicates the curves of the spine and evenly distributes the weight of the support over the entire back, thus improving blood circulation and promoting a healthier sitting posture. Long-term correct sitting SITNESS 10 can help prevent or reduce back pain and other chronic conditions associated with incorrect sitting.

Chair feet
When you buy an office chair, we often get questions about whether the castors can be replaced with feet. Of course! An office chair with feet is stable and its functionality remains unchanged. This is especially true for workplaces where there is a small, limited working area and stability is needed: shops, warehouses and production companies. People with disabilities or elderly customers often ask for chairs with feet. Learn more.
