- Product type
- Upholstered saddle chair for sit-stand workstations
Description
The Capisco is designed around changing position. Its saddle-shaped cushion and open-sided back let you face forward, turn sideways or use the backrest as support when sitting in reverse. The fully upholstered seat and back distinguish it from the molded-plastic Capisco Puls family.
Black polyester upholstery, a black base and the tall 265 mm lift suit a height-adjustable workspace. Check both the low sitting position and higher perched position against your desk.
Features
- Upholstered saddle seat: a broad cushion supports several sitting orientations without conventional armrests.
- Tall gas lift: the supplied 265 mm cylinder suits higher working positions at an adjustable desk.
- Seat-depth adjustment: change the distance between the saddle and the back support.
- Height-adjustable back: position the shaped support for forward, sideways or reverse sitting.
- Balanced tilt: HÅG inBalance allows rocking movement, with resistance adjustment and a locking control.
- Foot-support base: the aluminum star base has shaped footplates for alternative foot positions.

The seat-height range above is the supplied catalog figure. Flokk publishes different loaded-measurement ranges by revision and configuration; confirm the actual minimum if working with a fixed-height desk.
Match the tall lift to your desk
A tall lift works best when the surrounding workstation supports the higher position. For a low fixed desk, compare the occupied minimum height carefully with your existing chair.
| Height-adjustable desk | Set the chair first, then bring the keyboard and mouse to a comfortable working level. |
|---|---|
| Fixed desk | Check the chair’s minimum occupied seat height against the desk clearance; the tall lift may be too high. |
| High perch | Plan a stable place for your feet. An optional footring is a separate accessory. |
| Space around the chair | Allow room to turn and change orientation without catching the backrest on drawers or nearby furniture. |
What the saddle shape feels like
Expect a defined saddle rather than a deep executive cushion. Hands-on reviews highlight freedom to change position and the need to get used to the shape. Try short sessions at different heights. With no conventional armrests, keyboard placement and desktop support remain important.

Common questions
Is this a Capisco Puls?
No. This version has an upholstered saddle and upholstered back. Puls uses a molded shell with a smaller pad or full seat cushion.
Will it fit a normal fixed-height desk?
The tall cylinder may be too high for some fixed desks. Check the occupied minimum height and knee clearance before choosing this version.
Does it have armrests?
There are no conventional separate adjustable arms. The shaped back can provide support in alternative sitting positions.
Is a footring supplied?
No footring is established as included. If you plan to perch high, decide how your feet will be supported.
