Description

The backrest moves like your spine moves. Arm moves with elbow movement. And the seat moves with the movement of your waist. The Leap is the world's first chair in the "mimics the human spine" born from deep observation and discovery of the human body and "sitting". The live-back function supports the entire spine, with the natural S-shaped human body to change the shape of the backrest to support the entire spine. This reduces the lower back slipping or bending forward position. The natural glide system also allows the seat to slide forward as reclining posture, reducing the burden on the spine, allowing you to continue work without straining your eyes, neck and arms. The flex seat edge of the seat flexes the front edge of the seat in a forward position to relieve pressure on the thigh. Heat control uses slats and special materials on the seat and back to prevent heat and moisture buildup even when sitting for long periods of time. Exceptional versatile adjustment allows individuals to properly support their spinal shape and physique, providing a personalized and secure fit. Leap is exactly what you need to help you move without force, and will keep you healthy all day. Height: 972mm - 1099mm Width: 686mm Depth: 553mm - 629mm Base Leg: 625mm

  • Office Chair a success for this user
Color: Black
The office chair performs as advertised. Thus far it has met my personal expectations for home office chair: comfortable, attractive, while un-obtrusive. The chair was easy to assemble and is easy to move.

  • The best office chair
Color: Black
My office has had lots of Steelcase Leap chairs for years, so I am very familiar with them. Many years ago, we tested several quality office chairs, and the Leap got my vote over all the others. At the start of the pandemic, like many others, I started working from home almost exclusively. I bought a cheap $150 office chair at the time and suffered through the discomfort and back problems that came with it. More recently, I tried "upgrading" to a $300 office chair, which proved to be even worse, giving me a consistent neck ache due to poor posture that was impossible to correct. I looked at a lot of different options but kept coming back to the conclusion that anything less than a Leap would just mean a new set of problems. There are so many aspects of a chair that can go wrong -- lumbar support that is too far forward or non-adjustable, useless neck supports, uncomfortable arm supports stuck in place, hard seats, seat backs that don't come up far enough to sit straight, crappy wheels, the list goes on and I simply don't feel confident being able to judge all of those things especially while looking at chairs online given my experiences thus far. Even when I have tried to test them in-store, I have ended up with problems I didn't anticipate until I was actually using the chair over a period of time. The Leap is excellent in every respect. The cost is definitely high to pay out of your own funds for a home office, but the way I see it now, if you sit all day for your job, you can either pay the cost of that in the form of a nice office chair, or in the form of lots of visits to the doctor/physical therapist/chiropractor/etc. (been there, done that). Do yourself a favor and spend the money preventing those problems instead. ... show more

  • The looks, feel, but not the price tag of a walmart chair
Color: Navy/Black
This chair should be one large sociology experiment, published and used in colleges to teach people on how easy mass psychosis can occur, and how to avoid being sucked in. I was sucked in. But then my OCD kicked in, and I realized how bad this chair is. The seat is really small. If you kick it out, there is an even larger gap in the back. The fabric felt like you were sitting in a movie theater seat. There was folding where they didnt evenly wrap the fabric under the chair. There's very little cushion. I'm not looking for soft and fluffy here, Im looking for supportive. The back is just this flimsy plastic with some fabric over probably 50 cents of foam. This is supposed to be 'by design'. Mmmkay. Give me something that I can lean to the side a bit over a flimsy back that I have to sit like a robot on all day for it to hold me. The arms are way too short. They do not go high enough. The back lumbar support is the only plus. But, even at the highest setting it didnt offer alot of 'push' there. Which I found the highest setting to be modest and nice for my liking. Unlike the Gesture which is also a Steelcase chair, the lower back support is not adjustable - and the chair is more expensive. SMH. So I thought, maybe it is just me. Let's have my friends and family test out the chair. Here are some of the most common comments: -You paid HOW much for THAT? (ok ok, to be fair I expected that even if it was the nicest chair in the world, people just dont get that sometimes you have to pay for great things). -It looks like the typical blue/black chair youd get at walmart for $49. -Wow that's really uncomfortable. -Why does it feel like im sitting on a board? -No really, how much was this chair? Dont believe me - but look at the pictures people post. A plastic base on a $1200 chair?! Wrinkled material that is haphazardly wrapped under the seat?? LOOK at the seat, it looks no different than some cheap office store chair. Sure maybe they use a bit better of a fabric or foam, but I didnt notice a difference. I really dont trust anyone that says they like this chair anymore. To me, they are easily fooled and I dont run with fools. ... show more

  • A very well-designed, high quality chair.
Color: Black
As soon as I sat on this chair, I knew it was "the one". Love at first sight but for a piece of furniture :) The first thing I noticed about it was that it's actually smaller than a lot of the "executive" high-back chairs I've sat on. Those were very uncomfortable, and not designed for people of my size (I'm 5 ft 8, 140 lbs). Here are the most important design features for me: 1) The seat is depth-adjustable. I have relatively short thighs. I like that I can adjust the seat so that my back is nestled against the seat back and my legs still fall off the seat front at a right angle. 2) The arms are adjustable and yet not too loose: I thought this would not be a big deal, but this is turning out to be one of my favorite features. The arms can be lowered so you can pull the chair right up under the desk allowing you to get closer to your computer, if you want. They can be raised if you need support for your elbows. My old chair had arm rests that were far too wide basically making them useless. 3) There is a bewildering array of levers to adjust the chair and I thought this would be intimidating. However, every knob and lever is actually labeled so you know exactly what it does. Within a few minutes I knew how to adjust my chair. 4) I don't like mesh back chairs so I chose the Steelcase Leap over chairs like the Aeron. If you are spending an absurd amount of time in front of a computer because of working from home, do yourself a favor and buy a decent chair. Your body will thank you for it. The Steelcase Leap is expensive (when new, it's over $900) but I bought mine used and refurbished from TE Seating, at Amazon Marketplace. They delivered the chair within a week, fully assembled. It comes in a large box and it's very heavy so bear that in mind - you may need someone to help you bring it inside. ... show more
