FAQ- frequently asked questions

Which Kneelix chair should I choose if I am new to active sitting?

For starting with active sitting, the most suitable model is usually thecompact active sitting chair Kneelix Core. It is designed for people who want to try a new working position without a backrest, in a simple and compact format that fits easily into a home office. It is intended as a second chair, used during focused work sessions rather than all day. If you are still unsure or need extra support, a model with a backrest may feel more reassuring.

What is the difference between Kneelix Core, Kneelix Support and Kneelix Flex?

Kneelix Core is the simplest model, designed for compact active sitting. Kneelix Support adds a backrest for users who want to try a kneeling chair with extra reassurance. Kneelix Flex goes further with more adjustability, a mesh backrest and a more customisable sitting setup. The right choice depends mainly on how comfortable you feel sitting without a backrest, how much support you want, and how long you plan to use the chair per session. The newer you are to active sitting, the more comfort and adjustability should guide your decision.

Which model should I choose if I work long hours at a desk?

For long home working days, the best choice is not always the simplest model. A Kneelix chair should be used alongside your regular office chair. If you work several hours a day at a screen, a model with a backrest such as the supportive Kneelix Support Chair may be more suitable. It offers a more reassuring experience for focused work sessions while keeping the main purpose of Kneelix intact: helping you vary your posture instead of staying fixed in one position.

Can a Kneelix chair replace my standard office chair?

A Kneelix chair is not designed to fully replace a traditional office chair. It works best as a second chair, used for focused work sessions and alternated with your usual seat. This is intentional. The goal is not to stay in a new position for eight hours, but to reduce your reliance on one static posture. This approach is particularly suitable for people who want to bring more movement, variation and posture awareness into their working day.

How does a Kneelix kneeling chair work?

A kneeling chair changes the angle between your pelvis, thighs and torso. The angled seat encourages a more upright position, while the knee pads help stabilise your body. Your knees should not carry your full body weight. Most of your weight remains supported by the main seat. This setup creates a more active posture than a traditional office chair and allows you to vary the way you work, especially during tasks that require focus, writing, reading or computer work.

Do my knees support all my body weight?

Your knees should never carry your full body weight. On a Kneelix chair, the main seat remains the central support point. The knee pads are there to guide your position, stabilise your pelvis and support the sitting angle. If you feel too much pressure on your knees, it often means the chair needs adjusting or that the session is too long. For this reason, it is best to start gradually and alternate with a traditional chair.

Are Kneelix chairs suitable for small spaces?

Kneelix chairs are designed for modern workspaces, including compact home office setups. Backless models such as Core take up less room than a full office chair. Models with a backrest require slightly more space but still feel visually lighter than a large executive chair. For a small office, the main things to consider are the chair’s footprint and how easy it is to move. Castors help you move the chair aside when you are not using it.

What is the difference between active sitting and a traditional ergonomic chair?

A traditional ergonomic chair usually aims to support your body in a stable position. Active sitting encourages a more engaged posture and regular variation. Kneelix does not replace a full ergonomic office chair. It offers another way to sit while working by adding a second position to your day. This difference matters because the goal is not to stay perfectly still, but to change posture depending on your task, session length and comfort level.

What are the Kneelix delivery times?

Kneelix orders are delivered within 10 to 12 working days after your order has been processed. This timeframe allows your chair to be prepared, packed and shipped properly. For a bulky product such as an active sitting chair, it is better to give a realistic delivery window than to overpromise. Tracking information is provided once available. Delivery times may vary slightly depending on the address, the time of year and current order volume.

Is delivery available across the UK?

Kneelix is designed for the UK market and orders are intended for customers based in the United Kingdom. Exact delivery conditions may vary depending on the area, especially for remote regions or specific addresses. Before completing your order, the delivery information will confirm whether your address is eligible. For a specialist active chair brand, clear delivery times and costs matter because customers want to know when their chair will arrive and what to expect.

How can I track my Kneelix order?

Once your order has been processed and shipped, a tracking link is sent so you can follow your chair’s delivery progress. Tracking may take a short time to activate, especially just after the parcel has been handed to the carrier. The tracking information usually shows the key delivery stages, from dispatch to final delivery. For larger products, it is worth checking the tracking regularly so you can be available on delivery day or update instructions if the carrier allows it.

How are the chairs packed for delivery?

Kneelix chairs are shipped disassembled or partly disassembled to reduce parcel size and protect the parts during transport. Main components such as the seat, frame, knee pads, castors and fittings should be packed separately to reduce friction and damage. Good packaging is essential for furniture products. On delivery, check the condition of the box and parts before assembly. If there is visible damage, keep clear photos to support any claim or replacement request.

What is the Kneelix 30-day return?

Kneelix offers a 30-day return so you can test the chair in your own workspace. This period matters because active sitting often requires an adjustment phase. You can try the chair across several sessions, adjust your position and decide whether it fits your routine. The guarantee does not mean the product can be returned damaged or incomplete. Returns must follow the stated conditions, including product condition, included accessories and packaging where required.

How should I use a kneeling chair when starting out?

Start with 20 to 30 minute sessions. Your body needs time to adapt to a different posture. A Kneelix chair should not be used as an endurance test. The aim is to build it gradually into your working routine, for example during writing, reading or focused tasks. After a few days, sessions can be extended if the chair feels comfortable. Alternating with a standard chair remains the best way to use this type of seating.

What payment methods are accepted?

Available payment methods are shown at checkout. Our store can usually accept major debit and credit cards, as well as selected digital payment methods depending on its setup. Customers should always check the options displayed at the time of ordering because they may change. For a furniture purchase, payment clarity is essential. The total amount, any delivery charges and the order conditions should be visible before checkout to avoid confusion after purchase.

Is payment on Kneelix secure?

Payment is processed through a secure payment platform integrated with our store. Bank details are handled by specialist payment systems designed to protect online transactions. The store should never ask for bank details by private message or email. At checkout, customers should make sure they are on the secure payment page and that the amount matches their order. This level of security matters for a higher value product such as an active office chair.
