FAQs

How long can I sit in this chair?

The Calypso Ergo Chair is rated for up to 8 hours of continuous use.

What is the maximum weight capacity?

This chair is designed to support users weighing up to 115 kg.

Does the chair have adjustable armrests?

Armrest compatibility depends on the specific variant purchased; some models include fixed arms while others may be armless.

How does the lumbar pump work?

It is an integrated inflatable bladder operated by a manual hand pump located on the side or under the seat.

Is assembly difficult?

The chair arrives flat-packed and requires basic assembly using the provided tools and hardware, typically taking 15-20 minutes.

Troubleshooting

Lumbar support feels insufficient

Use the integrated hand pump to add more air to the lumbar bladder until you feel firm support against your lower back.

Chair height keeps sinking

Check the gas lift cylinder connection and ensure the seat assembly is properly seated on the base; if it continues, the gas lift may require replacement.

Chair is squeaking when moving

Check all under-seat bolts and tighten them, as loose connections are the most common cause of noise.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality foam back for superior comfort
  • Effective inflatable lumbar support for targeted relief
  • Supports up to 8 hours of continuous use
  • Permanent contact mechanism enhances posture

Cons

  • Assembly required upon delivery
  • Fixed back tension (based on permanent contact mechanism)
  • Some models may require separate armrest attachments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To assemble the chair, ensure all provided hardware is present and follow the included instructions to attach the base, gas lift, seat mechanism, and backrest. For optimal compatibility, use the chair on level flooring to ensure the castors move smoothly.

To maintain your chair, vacuum the fabric upholstery regularly to remove dust and debris. If a spill occurs, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the foam density or fabric integrity. Periodically check that all bolts remain tightened to ensure long-term stability and safety.
