Leitz Ergo Active Standing Stool with Unique Dual Density Foam Comfort Cushion, Height Adjustable 57 to 82cm, 100% Post Consumer Recycled Seat Cover, Supports 110kg, Ergo Range, Dark Grey, 65450089

Really stylish and comfortable office stool. I bought it to help maintain a good posture and use it with an adjustable desk. The stool is so easy to put together and to adjust. It has a slight "wobble base" which helps maintain posture and balance and it isvery easy to get used to. A great purchase.

This review is for the “ Leitz Ergo Active Standing Stool with Unique Dual Density Foam Comfort Cushion, Height Adjustable 57 to 82cm, 100% Post Consumer Recycled Seat Cover, Supports 110kg, Ergo Range, Dark Grey, 65450089”This review will be coming from my husband as I do not have the back strength to get on this, let alone sit on it for an extended period.He says it is comfortable, the seat is thickly padded and it does not flatten out over hours of use, this means you are well protected. The stool was easy to put together, there were no missing parts although there was an extra screw.The quality of this is impressive, you can tell from the thought that has gone into the design, materials and construction that it will last a long time.In terms of use, this chair does make you sit more upright as you are on alert to stay balanced, this helps work core muscles and back muscles as a result. This is the equivalent of sitting on an inflatable ball but it looks far more sophisticated and takes up much less space.The height is adjustable to suit shorter and taller people, my husband is 6ft 1ins and found the maximum height to be ideal. The pneumatics were really smooth and the handle was easy to engage.As the base does wobble (as intended), do not drink & wobble!

Two months in:I really want to love this stool. It cost a lot, looks great, extremely well made.It’s good for my back, I think. No back issues since I’ve been using it. It makes you do the work of sitting properly, and not in a way that creates too much fatigue in the back.But despite the padding and the clever design, it isn’t comfortable on my bottom for long periods. I have to alternate between sitting on it and standing, every 20 minutes. After a full work day, the bones in my backside ache. I think there’s a design flaw. Perhaps it’s too soft. Not contoured enough. It looks like it should be ergonomic but I think it’s not perfect.It’s a lovely stool though. I can’t see a better one…I’ll update this after another month.

While I do like this stool very much and think it is incredibly well engineered, personally I think it is not for me.First of all, I like the amount of cushion that it has on it. It's well padded enough that you can sit for a while and not feel like it's cutting the circulation off to your legs or making your backside feel numb. It's very comfy, although as it's made of foam I imagine this will flatten down quite drastically over time.The overall construction of the stool is impeccable. You can tell just by looking at it that this is something that has been incredibly thought out and well engineered. Everything feels stable and secure, the button to raise or lower it works effortlessly everyime (I also like that it's not one of those annoying levers) and the action of changing the height is gorgeously smooth.So why didn't I like it? Well a lot of that is down to the rounded base that makes the stool tilt ever so slightly. I get that this is to straighten your back and make your posture better, but I hate how it makes me feel like the base isn't stable. It sort of feels like you can never get 100% comfortable on it, plus when you're not sitting on it you can see it isn't straight, which I don't find very aesthetically pleasing. Other than that I feel like, although it is comfy, I couldn't sit on it for very long. It's okay if you're boiling a kettle or waiting for the toaster, but I couldn't personally sit and read the paper on it or eat breakfast.But that's not to say I don't think it's a good stool. I would still recommend it to others even though i dint think it's a fit for my tastes.

This is a really unique stool and whilst probably not suited to home bar use after a few too many beverages, it really does have some fantastic uses especially if you spend your work days sitting down.So where to begin? First of all, the unique density foam cushion is incredibly comfortable—even after long periods of sitting or leaning, the seat remains supportive without losing its shape. The fact that the seat cover is made from 100% post-consumer recycled material is a nice eco-friendly touch, and it doesn’t sacrifice on quality at all.What really stands out is the pneumatic height adjustment. It’s smooth and easy to adjust, so whether I’m sitting or using it as a support while standing, I can switch positions quickly. It’s ideal for anyone looking to add some movement to their workday without having to fully commit to standing all day.The stool is solidly built and supports me well with no wobbling or instability. I’ve been using it as part of my standing desk setup, and it’s been great for alternating between sitting and standing throughout the day, giving my back and legs a much-needed break without interrupting my workflow.Overall, this unique stool is a brilliant choice if you’re looking to add a bit more movement to your workspace. Comfortable, sturdy, and sustainable—what more could you ask for? Highly recommended!
