The Perfect Home Office Chair

This is one of the most comfortable desk seating options if you frequently sit down/stand up. I have a taller cylinder installed on mine, which allows me to raise the saddle to open up my hips and drop my legs below the seat height. Lowering it down takes it back to a more traditional backless seat. The lack of back support has never been a problem, as the design of the saddle keeps my hips in good alignment throughout the day. You just can't slouch for too long. Since I work from home, I don't want a huge piece of office furniture in the middle of my living room. This piece hides nicely under the desk at the end of the day.

Perfect long term stool

I spend upward of eight hours per day working on my laptop. I alternate between standing and sitting. My Saddle seat has proven to be both comfortable and versatile. Unkile any other it makes me aware of my posture while working and reduces the amount of fatigue to virtually none by the end of long hours working. We have begun to travel for extended periods of time in our Airstream travel trailer and will be bringing the Saddle on our next trip. Its' size will work very well in the smaller confines of the trailer and enable me to work comfortably from the road.

Simple, functional, comfortable

The Saddle/Pony is an incredibly comfortable, simple seat. The adjustability is great, and it forces me to sit in a more natural position. I much prefer this style of seat to a traditional office chair.

Fantastic home office chair

I had to buy a another one!

My original saddle/pony stool I have had for about 5 years. I sit on it everyday at work. It allows me to work above my monitor and see customers come in and if I need to hunker down and focus on my computer I just lower it a little. It is comfortable if back support is not needed. I now have one in my studio at home.

Excellent ergonomic chair

This chair will change how comfortable you are when you have to sit for any length of time. I am a sloucher, and based on how this contours to your body, it has effortlessly rectified my natural slouch. Instead of hollering at me, my mom should have bought me this chair!

So comfy, my little pony!

This chair is great for my back and amazingly comfortable. It is also incredibly well-built and sturdy. Worth every penny and the 15 year warranty is astounding. It's really hard to find value like this nowadays. I couldn't recommend Humanscale more!

great chair

It's a great chair for those with hip, lower back and even upper cervical issues and the style is nice too. I've had mine for over 3 years and it still looks new.

Great for Medical Office

The pony saddle stools work well in my exam rooms and have essentially eliminated the lower back pain I had been getting previously with traditional flat exam stools.

High quality multi-purpose ergonomic stool

The Humanscale Saddle/Pony seat is a high quality office swivel stool. It's a great choice for anyone looking for a minimalist and ergonomic seat. There are several options available which make this product highly polyvalent. It also works well for anyone requiring easy and quick movement. There is a bit of a learning curve in getting used to the seating position but most users will adapt to it pretty quickly.

Philippe L. 8 months ago

Solidly built, easy and quick to maneuver, with enough comfort for suitable but not long stretches of sitting. My only reservation is the very poor condition of the stool's packaging on arrival, which was damaged significantly. The stool itself was thankfully not damaged.

Great seating

It's great

Saddle chair gains acceptance

The saddle stool has been a great compliment to our sit to stand workstations. Not only does it support the worker in neutral posture (when adjusted at the proper height for the individual worker) but also can be pushed into the corner of a work surface when the surface is elevated to accommodate standing workers.
