Summary

A lighter, plastic-shell version of the Capisco, with the same saddle seat and balanced tilt.

Best for

  • Sit-stand desks; a sit-to-stand cylinder raises the seat to 26".
  • Shared spaces such as labs, classrooms and salons, which HÅG names.
  • Users up to 300 lb, HÅG's stated rating.

Good to check first

  • Pick the cylinder for your desk: standard (16.5"–21.5"), sit-to-stand (19"–26") or stool (22.5"–32").
  • Choose the seat: an upholstered pad (8010) or a removable cushion (8020).
  • HÅG warrants Capisco Puls to 300 lb.

The trade-off

Lighter and lower-priced than the Capisco, with a plastic shell instead of full upholstery.

What HÅG highlights

  • Slimmer saddle seat

    The saddle seat adjusts from low working heights up to a standing position. HÅG says the slimmer saddle and light profile keep Capisco's movement.

  • HÅG in Balance tilt

    A balanced, flowing tilt follows your movement, with adjustable tension and a two-position lock.

  • Plastic shell

    Seat and back come in several plastic colours, including a recycled brown made from snow-plough markers. HÅG says it contains 41% recycled material.

As described by HÅG on its official pages; not a Chairpedia assessment.
