what we love most
Over the course of a month, the reviewers worked all day long. lock kit active perch And it was a hit! Reviewers loved the height adjustability, especially for stand-up desks. Tested with the Mancini Duffy NYC team from 5’3″ tall he’s 6’4″ and one stool really fits all. In fact, Mancini has her Rokkitt stool in one of his sound booths to perfectly support the temporary (touchdown) meeting space.
Everyone agrees that stools promote good posture.
Sitting on a stool subtly forces you to straighten your back, which reduces back fatigue and improves posture. Seat rocking is also great. While using Rokkitt in multiple environments, I noticed that some reviewers were rocking left and right, while others were rocking back and forth. The seat itself also contains two inches of polyurethane foam for comfort.
Extra features spotlight
- The stool is lightweight and easy to move.
- The base feels secure and the sway is still controlled.
- The minimalist design is sleek and fits in any environment, from the office to home to school.
