The Gorgeous Gas Lift Bar Stool

Posted by Karla Thomas on July 11, 2012 0 Comments

Now that bar stools are quickly becoming the kitchen chair of choice, the question on everyone’s lips is “What exactly is a gas-lift bar stool?”

Gas is generally associated with cooking right? Wrong! Gas-lift bar stools are an ingenious invention which, with the concept of using a mini inbuilt gas cylinder and spring, the user can modify the height of the stool by using a simple lever function; creating the perfect comfortable sitting height in line with the breakfast bar or high level table.

You may be wondering why that would be such an added benefit over standard fixed height bar stools. Well this of course gives the bar stool user an increased level of comfort along with excellent ergonomic benefits.

What are ergonomics? The basic ergonomics or human factors as they are more commonly known; are the scientific disciplines of understanding how we humans interact with other objects. If for instance, you was sat on a bar stool where your height was much greater than the breakfast bar or table, thus forcing you to slump and stoop into an uncomfortable position to allow you to reach a height in which you can enjoy your breakfast easier; this would be bad ergonomics. The body needs to be aligned correctly in the first instance in order to optimise your well-being and overall performance. In layman terms, stop you from getting a bad back!

We’ve all been there, sat on chairs with the wrong height for hours on end, where eventually we are forced to readjust our posture continuously due to back ache. This needn’t be the case anymore! Gas lift chairs have long been in the work place for pen pushers all over the world… now’s the time for the gas-lift chair revolution to hit the kitchen in the form of a bar stool!

Plush leather seats, high backs, arms rests, 360 degree swivel functionality, chrome foot rests…. so many beneficial extras, so little time!
