Product Information

Full details

The Calypso II High Back Operator Chair is an ideal seating solution for professionals and remote workers seeking ergonomic support during standard 8-hour workdays. It provides superior comfort through its deep-cushioned seat and backrest, alongside a versatile permanent contact back mechanism, though users who require advanced lumbar adjustment may find its fixed-back design limiting for long-term orthopaedic support.

FAQs

Is this chair suitable for more than 8 hours of use?

The Calypso II is rated for up to 8 hours of daily use. We recommend taking regular breaks if using the chair for longer periods.

Can I lock the backrest in place?

Yes, the chair features a mechanism that allows you to lock the backrest angle at your preferred position.

Are the arms removable?

The arms are designed to be height-adjustable, but they are integral to the chair's structural comfort and are not intended for frequent removal.

What kind of floors can the castors be used on?

The twin-wheeled nylon castors are suitable for both carpeted areas and hard floor surfaces.

Does the chair come in other colors?

Yes, this model is available in both Grey and Black configurations.

Troubleshooting

The backrest feels loose or unstable.

Check the tension knob beneath the seat to ensure it is tightened properly for your body weight.

The chair is difficult to move across the floor.

Check the hooded castors for trapped debris, hair, or carpet threads and clear them using tweezers.

Armrests are at the wrong height.

Locate the adjustment trigger on the side of the armrest stem to unlock and slide to your desired position.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile permanent contact back mechanism
  • Adjustable armrests for personalized ergonomics
  • Deep cushioning provides comfort for full workdays
  • Durable fabric upholstery stands up to daily wear
  • Flexible backrest angle (fixed or free-float)

Cons

  • No advanced lumbar tension adjustment
  • Limited to 8 hours of recommended daily use
  • Fixed back support may not suit all body types

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Assembly is straightforward, typically requiring only basic tools to attach the base and armrests to the main seat mechanism. The chair is compatible with most standard-height office desks, provided the arms are adjusted to clear the desk surface. To maintain the upholstery, vacuum the fabric weekly to remove dust and debris. If spills occur, use a mild upholstery cleaner immediately, blotting rather than rubbing the fabric. Ensure the castors are kept free of hair and carpet fibers to maintain smooth rolling performance on all floor types.
