Wow, this one really ‘kicks butt’… some incredible chair that is worth the money… for many of us seating at the computers blogging away. An 18-ways adjustable office chair will beat any car seat, even those in 745li BMW’s. At the glance, here’s how the Freedom Task chair can be adjusted – as I’ve calculated, in at least 18-ways:
– dual pivot backrest – 2 ways, up and down + 4 ways to recline around 2 pivots
– seat depth – 2 ways, forward and backward
– arm rests – 4 ways, up and down, outward and inward
– seat height – 2 ways, up and down
– headrest – 2 ways, up and down
And it still has many more features… Read it in detail – Freedom Task. The just Task chair is available with no headrest.
