Putting the Vilno together was so easy. The materials are good quality, it is lightweight and is so comfy to sit on! I am a hospice triage nurse and am on the computer for long periods of time. I know my back will feel better and there is no pressure on my knees!

Nice feeling

It is a comfortable chair that helps with my posture. I like being able to rock on the chair. I can even sit cross-legged. It is really a versatile chair.

Good product!

good for my back

This chair is very comfortable and I like that I can sit cross legged, with one or two feet down that I can rock and also sit the traditional way with knees on kneeling pad. So far so good

El montaje es relativamente sencillo pero a mí no me gusta montar muebles.

I backed the chair on the Kickstarter, and while it took a long time to arrive, I’ve been enjoying it since setting it up. So far, I have been using it at my desk for nearly a month now. It was mostly easy to assemble with the provided tools and using the included paper instructions, with the only difficulties coming from possibly needing a third hand to hold pieces in place while I aligned the screws. The seat was the most difficult part to line up and took multiple attempts to align with both pegs - I felt like the pegs were either slightly too close to each other or slightly too far apart, and it was a challenge to get both seated at the same time, especially with the fabric on the underside of the seat getting in the way. I feel like my back has felt much better overall since using the chair, and I frequently rock back and forth as I use it for extended periods. I appreciate the included felt pads for the runners, so as to avoid scratching up wooden floors, and making it quieter on the floor. During the first few days, my shins hurt a lot while using the knee pads, but I discovered that by sitting up further on the seat, I lessened the pressure on my shins and knees, and I don’t have an issue with it now. The interesting bumpy texture of the foam seat can feel strange to me after sitting for long sessions of over eight hours. I occasionally rock the chair onto my toes by accident; my toes can slip underneath the frontmost support that connects the two runners together if I rock back far enough. I’m gradually learning to keep them away from those spots! If a newer version comes out, it’d be nice if that support was positioned up above the floor. I do have a few concerns about the strength of the chair as I wiggle from side to side or need to lean over to pick something up off the floor. Sometimes there is more flexing than I’d like. I’ve tightened the screws as they’ve loosened up to mitigate this, which has helped a lot, but I’ve heard some concerning cracking sounds from the wood when I do so. I’ve also damaged the hex sockets on a few of the screws as the Allen key slipped out of the socket while I was tightening them. I can still tighten them if I’m careful, but I worry that more accidental damage will come if I have to tighten them more in the future, and eventually the socket may become unusable. Hopefully, I won’t have to tighten the screws too many more times. Only one spare of each screw and peg was included, so I have no way to replace multiple parts. I would definitely recommend this chair to others. It’s not perfect, but I’ve grown to really like it in a short time.
