HAG Capisco Review

HAG Capisco Chair, designed by Peter Opsvik

Quite possibly the first thing that strikes you when you look at a HAG Capisco is it’s unconventional shape. It stands there with its arms stretched out, almost as if its welcoming you to come over and sit down. One of the many unique things about the Capisco is its saddle-shaped seat. The saddle seat was the result of Opsvik’s research into the working styles of active horsemen. The Capisco’s saddle seat and back allow the sitter unrivaled freedom to move into different, natural sitting positions that are not possible with any other chair. After you’ve tried sitting in the chair, you will understand HAG’s company philosophy – The best sitting position is always the next.

Balans Chair Review

Recommended by chiropractors all around the world, the kneeling chair uses the “right angle” approach to seating. The forwardly-slanted seat and supportive knee cushion open the angle of the hips, which provides a more natural posture for the spinal column.

HAG H05

Legendary designer Peter Opsvik began development of the “one wheel” adjustment concept in the late 1980′s. He began his collaboration with HAG in 1995 to bring this concept to fruition.

HAG H09 Chairs

Designed by Svein Asbjornsen, the HAG H09 is a beautiful engineering feat that marries advanced ergonomic theories, 21st century manufacturing capabilities and bold design.

The chair’s unique “flip-down” arms and unparalleled lumbar support have separated it from its rivals within the high-end ergonomic seating market. Available in three distinct styles, the Classic, the Inspiration and the Excellence, the H09 series replaced HAG’s Signet series in 2002.

HAG Step Up
