The central brake and the stable armrests make it easier to get into and out of the chair. The user can lean on the armrest as the chair will not move. This is a benefit to users who have problems regarding mobility or balance

The chair has smoothly running wheels and plenty of room for the feet. This means that the user can easily ‘walk’ the chair while sitting down and move around without assistance.

Adjustment of the seat height, depth and tilt plus backrests and armrests ensures the optimum conditions for an ergonomic sitting position.

Work chairs improve the work environment

Height adjustment of the seat improves the work position for assistants, e.g., when the user needs assistance at meals or when getting dressed. The height adjustment means that the user can be placed high up and easily be placed at the same level as a bed or a chair for easy and safe transfer. The height-adjustable push handle eases the work if the user has to be moved.
