All Knoll Life chairs come standard with a mesh suspension fabric that is durable, flexible and available in a wide range of colors.
The Knoll Life chair provides built-in lumbar support with the shape of the back frame and the back suspension fabric. However, the addition of an adjustable lumbar support offers more customizable comfort and superior support. The adjustable lumbar support mounts to your chair with magnets and features slow-recovery foam covered in your choice of three fabrics.
A black urethane headrest can be attached to your Knoll Life chair to add extra neck and head support. The headrest features 3" of height adjustment along 12 positions, and is a perfect match to the chair's frame and arm rests. Please note that the headrest is not compatible with a back topper.
Choose a cylinder to complement the user's height and workstation. Seat heights ranges vary as listed below:
The Knoll Life Chair ia available in three different types of armrests, or you can opt for no arms.
Knoll Life chair arms are available in Sabrina or Volo Spinneybeck leather upholstery. This custom option will add two weeks to manufacturing time. See seat topper option for leather option images.
The Life chair ships standard without a seat topper, but we strongly recommend the purchase of a seat topper for your comfort, especially if you sit for longer than five hours a day. The standard foam seat topper is 1.75" thick. The seat and back toppers are also available in any Spinneybeck leather (www.spinneybeck.com) and optional perforations are available. Please call or email us for pricing on leathers not listed.
Volo leather is a lightly corrected, aniline leather. The light correction process refines the surface so it better accepts the grain enhancement done prior to finishing. Volo receives a special retannage that tightens the grain and provides a finer hand that other corrected leathers.
Sabrina leather is a very popular full grain leather. The special retannage Sabrina receives provides a smooth, tight grain and supple hand, making it an excellent choice for both elegance and high-traffic use. The average thickness is 0.9 - 1 mm, and the average weight is 2.25 - 2.5 oz per square foot. Sabrina leather is Greenguard certified and available in 114 colors.
For added comfort, add a 2.25" thick foam Ultra Topper.
Both back and seat toppers snap quickly on or off the Life chair, making it easy to change the look of your chair as often as you'd like. Standard back topper is 3/4" thick foam.
Select from four low profile bases.
Select from three caster colors available for carpet or hard floors. Glides are also available on the Life ergonomic chair if casters are not necessary.
