Standing Desks & Treadmill Desks

In this review we're rounding out the best ergonomic chairs that promote active sitting. There are a few types to choose from and a significant amount of extra energy to burn.

iMovR’s two Tempo TreadTop™ seating solutions address a huge problem that many treadmill desk users contend with—how to take a break from walking or standing when your treadmill desk isn’t wide enough to accommodate a good chair alongside the treadmill. Compared to the Tempo TreadTop Office Chair, the Tempo Sit-Stand Stool is the less costly, and more versatile—in fact, we’d unconditionally recommend it as a “perching stool” for standing desk users who don’t have a treadmill.

And its unique seat materials and adjustment range create a sitting experience unlike any other.

Expect to see more and more Muvman lookalikes, and soon. This German made leaning stool has set the bar in terms of functionality, ergonomics, and appearance.

WorkWhileWalking is currently experiencing a tidal wave of leaning chairs. The recent ErgoExpo convention brought a slew of these new products to light, and we’re up to our derrieres in testing samples. Many of the reviews we publish over the next few weeks will be of these products. Never fear – we’re the same treadmill desk resource you know and love – we’re just bringing you yet another way to win your fight with sitting disease.
