What Sedus highlights

  • Dorsokinetic backrest

    The backrest is attached at a single flexible joint. Sedus says it moves 15° back and 8° to each side with you.

  • Similar mechanism

    Coordinated springs move the seat and back together at a 1:2.7 ratio.

  • Three back styles

    The back comes fully upholstered in three heights, as an airy mesh membrane, or in 3D knit with quilting.

  • Sedo-lift

    Sedus's patented Sedo-lift height mechanism carries a 30-year warranty; a gas lift is the alternative.

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