Product Information
Full details
The Panther 24 Hr Task Office Chair is designed for professionals who require high-performance, long-duration seating, such as those working in multi-shift operations or intensive office environments. Its primary benefit is the 24-hour comfort provided by an extra-thick moulded foam seat and a robust, supportive frame rated for users up to 152 kg. While it offers superior durability and ergonomic adjustability, its heavy-duty build may be overkill for casual, home-office users who prefer a more minimalist aesthetic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward using the provided hardware, though it is recommended to have a second person assist with attaching the backrest to the seat mechanism due to the weight of the components. Once assembled, ensure the 5-star base is placed on a flat, stable surface. To maintain the chair, vacuum the fabric upholstery regularly to remove dust, and wipe the frame with a damp, lint-free cloth. For the gas lift and mechanism, ensure that no debris obstructs the moving parts. While the chair is compatible with most standard flooring, use a floor mat if using the provided castors on hardwood or delicate surfaces to prevent scratches.
