Described by The New York Times as "the gold standard in office seating", the Humanscale Freedom Office Drafting Stool redefines the concept of ergonomic seating. Designer Niels Diffrient has designed the office chair that automatically adapts to the users frame and weight, allowing them to move freely. Diffrient’s unique approach removed complexities found in other chairs, such as awkward recline levers and back tension dials for a truly ergonomic chair. As a result, he developed a recline mechanism that perfectly adjusts to the user, definitively reinventing modern task seating. Nothing to fuss with, adjust the height and just sit back and enjoy your Humanscale adjustable drafting chair.
This is a deeply marked down Open Box offer for one (1) Freedom mid-back ergonomic upholstered in the popular Lotus textile, which is water repellant and easy to clean vinyl. It has vinyl properties but with a hand that mocks a smooth high end leather. PVC and PFC free with anti-microbial properties. We are big fans. This Freedom Stool is in a Graphite frame and base, with Standard Adjustable Duron Arms paired with a 20" foot-ring and a 8" piston which yields a seat height range of 20.25-27.75". This normally sells for $1,488 and up. This chair has not been sat in and was returned by a customer that ordered the incorrect upholstery. Priced to move.

What you need to know before ordering your Humanscale Freedom task chair:
Arms- All Freedom task chair 'Standard' arms have a height adjustment range of 6". Humanscale Freedom chairs have a natural lift and release action with no buttons or engagement switches to fail or fuss with. Unlike other office chairs, they are attached to the back so that when you recline the arms stay with you. The 'Advanced' arms carry the same functionality but the arm caps slide in and out for width adjustability. The arm caps are done in a variety of ways. The most popular version is the Duron arm that has a soft and pliable black self skinned rubberized cap. The gel arm has a layer of gel but is capped off with the Duron material. The arm caps can also be configured so that the textile that you have selected on your chair will also be used to cover the arm cap itself.
Seat Foam- All Freedom task chairs have a very high quality molded seat and back foam that is perfectly adequate for most sitters. You can also add a layer of non-compressible Technogel for increased comfort on the seat. Gel seat options are not available if you select Lotus Fabric or any of the leathers.
Frame Finishes- Freedom chairs can be configured with a Graphite frames. You may also select a polished base with Graphite.
Cylinder Options- This drafting Stool is configured with the stool cylinders and foot rings: 8" tall chair cylinder with a 20" footring.
Casters- The standard caster on the Humanscale Freedom chair is the carpet style twin disc. You may also select a 'Soft Caster' for hard floor surfaces as well as stationary glides (if you do not want your chair moving around) or braking casters that lock when you are in the Freedom task chair.
