Overview

Vert Ergonomic Chair

Ergonomists like to say that the best posture is your next one. It's healthy to move more and be less static while working. The Vert Ergonomic Chair actively adapts to your position to accommodate a full range of seated movement. It's designed to move, flex, and conform to your torso to evenly distribute upper body weight while reclined.

Features

  • Inspired by the human body - molded elastomer spine and ribs support the entire back and flex as you move from side to side
  • Designed to move with you - chair accommodates a full range of seated movement; the best posture is your next posture - move more
  • Supportive, flexible, breathable mesh back - mesh back adapts to your body and provides cooling airflow
  • Plush seat - cushioned and comfortable seat with a slight contour
  • Included, optionally attached headrest - a headrest is included with every Vert Chair to support the head and neck when reclined. If you opt to not install the headrest, a thoughtfully designed cover for the connection point is included for a finished look
  • Eco-friendly materials - made from over 60% recyclable materials
  • ANSI/BIFMA X5.1-2017 Certified - meets rigorous ANSI/BIFMA performance and safety requirements
  • 15 year warranty - all UPLIFT Desk products include a 15 year warranty

Details

Adaptable, Adjustable, & Comfortable

Move more while seated. The chair's flexible back frame conforms to subtle body movements. This improves support and comfort when sitting for long durations.

Adjust the height of the seat, lumbar support, and soft-touch armrests for a personalized ergonomic fit. Slide the seat back and forth to change depth based on your leg length to eliminate pressure behind the knees. The Vert chair is highly adjustable and designed to fit your body in a variety of seated positions.

Adjustments:

  1. Lumbar support height (1.3" range)
  2. Armrest height (4" range)
  3. Seat height (4" range)
  4. Seat depth (seat slide)
  5. Back tilt with free recline or three locking positions (20° range)
  6. Automatic back support mimics the spine with flexible ribs
  7. Recline counterbalance - weight sensing tension control
  8. Synchro-tilt (2:1 ratio of back tilt to seat tilt)

Automatic Recline Support & Weight Tension Control

The Vert's weight-sensing mechanism actively adjusts the recline support of the back based on the weight of the user.

The Vert features Synchro-Tilt which synchronizes the chair back and seat to move in a 2:1 ratio. For every 2° the back tilts, the seat tilts 1°, allowing your feet to remain flat on the floor. Also, as you recline your hip angle will open allowing the lumbar curve in your spine to assume a healthier curve.

The chair reclines and locks into one of three positions between the angles of 3° and 23°. Alternatively, flip a lever to allow the chair back to tilt freely with the chair's auto-adjusting weight tension control.

The tilt mechanism is constructed of durable, diecast aluminum with a black finish.

Included, Optionally Installed Headrest

Every Vert chair ships with a head and neck supporting headrest that quickly attaches with two screws.

You can choose to install the headrest or leave it off. If you opt for no headrest, simply install the provided cover plate for a low profile, minimalist look.

Blade Casters on a Vert Ergonomic Chair

Optional Blade Chair Casters

Take your Vert Ergonomic Office Chair to the next level in mobility with a set of Blade Chair Casters. These blade style polyurethane wheels make for a quiet, nearly frictionless roll. Ideal for harder surfaces like low to medium pile carpet, ceramic tile, laminate, hardwood, concrete, vinyl, and chair mats. Not recommended on thick carpet with thick pad.

The Vert Ergonomic Chair meets ANSI/BIFMA X5.1-2017 standards

BIFMA-Level Certification

The Vert Ergonomic Chair meets the safety and performance requirements outlined in the ANSI/BIFMA X5.1-2017 standards for chairs.

BIFMA certification is a voluntary standard for businesses and institutional furniture manufacturers. The standard establishes measurable criteria for multiple levels of performance for products. Manufacturers that achieve BIFMA certification demonstrate to the marketplace that their products have met stringent third-party requirements.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. I don't like my current office chair, but I don't want to spend a lot of money on a new one. Do I really need the Vert?

    If you want more supportive seating that doesn't break the bank, the Vert Ergonomic Chair is a great option! You'll love the Vert's ergo-friendly features like adjustable lumbar support, optional head and neck supporting headrest, and breathable mesh back. The Vert offers all of these ergonomic features at a lower price point than chairs from other brands. Give your body the backup it needs with an ergonomic office chair designed to respond and adjust to your body's unique seated posture.

  2. What features make this chair so ergonomic?

    The Vert Ergonomic Chair was designed and built with the best ergonomics features in mind. The frame resembles the human spine and buttresses the user's back throughout a wide range of seated postures. A molded rib design with an elastomer vertebrae system adds flexibility to the chair's back, while a tilt lock with weight-sensing mechanism automatically adjusts the chair's recline resistance. This all makes the chair very intuitive, saving you time and eliminating the need to make lots of manual adjustments.

  3. Does the Vert come with a mesh seat?

    No, the Vert comes with a plush seat cushion and a mesh back. If you tend to feel hot when seated, this chair can help improve airflow to your back.

  4. How does the Vert compare to the Pursuit?

    Our customers love the Pursuit Chair thanks to its breathable mesh back, contoured seat, adjustable armrests, and articulating headrest. Compared to the Pursuit, the Vert comes with a plush seat cushion just slightly contoured to support your lower half and a mesh back and headrest. The seat and arms are height adjustable, like the Pursuit's, but the Vert has a unique frame designed to mimic the human spine and fit your torso comfortably through multiple seated positions. If you need help choosing your chair, contact us. We'd love to help you narrow down your choices and find the perfect chair for your body.

  5. Can I remove the headrest on the Vert?

    Yes, the Vert's included headrest is optional and removable. If you'd rather work without it, you can opt to not install it to the chair or remove it later. If you choose to go without the headrest, you can cover the exposed mounting holes with the included molded cover plate.

  6. How contoured is the seat?

    The Vert Ergonomic Chair's seat is slightly contoured for comfort.

  7. What's so special about a mesh back?

    The mesh back and headrest allow you to enjoy more breathability when seated thanks to the improved airflow your back receives. This makes the Vert ideal for work in warm or humid environments. If you find yourself getting clammy in your office chair, the Vert can make a huge difference in keeping you cool while seated.
