Why HÅG’s Award Winning Futu Chair Is Now Even Better: Five Great Modifications
The Futu chair from HÅG won a coveted red dot design award in March 2010 and has recently been further improved, these modifications make it an even better chair.
The seat foam is now a little softer than before giving better user comfort, however it is still a high quality foam which won’t flatten with use and is guaranteed for 10 years.
Additionally the foam’s contour has been redesigned and is now a little less convex in shape making it more comfortable in use.
Another great addition is the option to include soft padding to the tops of the armpads. This small improvement will be a welcome option if you find normal armrests cause pain to the underside of your arms.
The self adjusting inBalance mechanism which automatically controls the chair’s action in harmony with the user’s body movement has been tweaked too.
It’s noticeably smoother in use and those who like to lock their seat in a preset position will find the lock function is much easier to control now.
Finally, the available upholstery fabrics have been increased to give considerably more choice of finishes.
HÅG also takes its environmental responsibilities very seriously, the chair is made from 50% recycled materials and some 97% of the chair is recyclable.
