Summary

A Swedish task chair with a choice of free-floating or synchronized movement and 4D or 5D arms.

Best for

  • Offices that want to choose between two tilt mechanisms.
  • People who adjust their arms a lot; 5D arms add a free individual distance setting.
  • Users up to 130 kg, the weight Kinnarps tests it for.

Good to check first

  • Choose FreeMotion (seat and back move separately) or SyncMotion (they move together) when you order.
  • Lumbar support and the headrest are options, so add them if you want them.
  • Pick a low or high back; the high back adds about 90 mm of overall height.

The trade-off

Wide configuration choice, with most extras sold as options and no US online price.

Value check

Kinnarps does not publish a US list price; ask a Kinnarps showroom or dealer.

What Kinnarps highlights

  • FreeMotion or SyncMotion

    FreeMotion lets the seat and back move independently. SyncMotion moves them together, and both have adjustable tilt resistance.

  • 4D or 5D armrests

    The 4D arm adjusts in height, width, depth and angle. The 5D arm adds a free individual distance setting.

  • Air-cushion lumbar option

    The optional lumbar support is an air cushion you inflate or deflate with a button under the backrest.

  • Back choices

    The back comes low or high, with up to 90 mm of height adjustment. An adjustable headrest is optional.
