Overview
Humanscale requires a signature upon delivery.
Many high-end ergonomic office chairs have an almost overwhelming amount of levers, switches and knobs. Not the Humanscale Freedom. Simply set your preferred seat height and backrest position, and never have to worry about adjustments again, as the chair adapts to your movements.

The Freedom arms are available in two different styles: standard and advanced. The standard arms quickly move up and down; the advanced arms are width as well as height adjustable.
Once you pick the type of arms to best suit your needs, choose your arm padding, Duron or Technogel. Add a surface material to complement your Freedom color options.
Humanscale offers a standard padded foam or gel seat cushion on the Freedom chair. Both seats are very comfortable, but the gel seat upgrade offers better long-term support and relief of pressure points for users that sit in their chair 8 to 10 hours a day.
Standard foam seat is contoured to fit your body and reduce pressure points, providing both a comfortable and supportive cushion. Technogel is a non-degradable, non-compressible Technogel layer on top of a foam core that provides maximum pressure distribution and offers unmatched, long-term comfort. Technogel has a firmer "sit" than the standard foam that softens up somewhat after a few minutes and will offer better back support if you are seated for long periods of time. Users who are up and down more may prefer the foam.
Raise or lower the height of the Freedom's seat by selecting a cylinder size. When sitting in a chair, a person's feet should rest comfortably on the floor or a foot rest. Ninety-five percent of our customers select the standard height for their chair; however, a petite user with a lower desk or a tall user with a higher desk can opt for a custom configuration without worrying about bumping their knees on a work surface.
The return to height cylinder returns to the highest position once the user gets up from the chair.
| Standard cylinder | 16" - 21" H |
| Tall cylinder | 17" - 22.25" H |
| Return to height cylinder | 17.7" - 19.9" H |
The Freedom chair offers four caster choices. Most of our customers select the standard casters for carpet floors or soft casters for hard floors. Glides are perfect for a stationary chair, and the locking casters let the chair move around when no one is sitting down.
| Standard Hard Casters | 2 1/2'' double-wheeled for carpeted floors |
| Soft Casters | 2 1/2'' soft double-wheeled for hard floors |
| Glides | Non-rolling glides for fixed location use |
| Locking Casters | Lock into position when you sit on the chair |

Sensuede was developed to be the best and most luxurious engineered suede available. The faux suede's soft touch comes from the use of breathable and wrinkle resistant recycled microfibers that are finer than a human hair but are extra-strong, resulting in a very resilient fabric. This material also was selected because of its environmentally sensitive content and manufacturing process.
