I am so happy for my new workstation. It's the best thing I've done in a long time. It took me around 30 ish´ days to turn my body around to use it. To begin with I got "sore" in all sorts of muscles and didn't sit very well. So I really doubted at first whether I should deliver it back. BUT now, I will never live without this workstation again. I love it!

It is also very important to tell what a great service I received from Jeff (Altwork) throughout the process. I would definitely recommend Altwork and Jeff to everyone else. (I live in Denmark)

All the best

After a couple of decades of computer work my neck and shoulders gives me trouble. This desk did wonders for me by allowing the elbows to rest on the seat back while reclined offloading the muscles.

Amazing!!!!

I'm a radiologist who works an overnight shift 10 hours per day for 7 days straight. My back and neck were really starting to ache despite having a sit/stand desk. This chair and the reclining function were instrumental in reducing the pressure off my back and neck. A noticeable difference right off the bat. I feel refreshed and ready even after a work week of 70 hours glued to looking at radiology studies. We did have to think carefully about the weight restrictions on the monitor. My primary monitor needs to be FDA approved and weights 30 lbs for medical imaging. Jeff at Altworks was helpful in verifying my system would work. The equipment itself is heavy and requires two people to assemble. Be prepared to ask for help and dedicating some time to unboxing, assembly, and cabling layout unique to your system. Definitely worth the effort (and price) as I believe this will help minimize long term consequences of a sedentary job. This chair has changed my outlook on my profession and coupled with an active lifestyle, mindset, eating the right foods, etc, I'm confident this chair has greatly extended my career and health.

One thing the nice glossy photos on the web site don't fully show is how adjustable the DISTANCE between the screen and your eyes; you can get the tweak the distance and angle to your eyes/face from very far away to VERY CLOSE UP, which is handy. I have special glasses (SpecWell 4x Keplerian scope, spectacle mounted), but even using my scopes I still need to have the screen pretty close, and angle matters too.

When I contact AltWork about my special needs, they were VERY accommodating, they answered questions, and they even had me talk to the CEO about getting a special adapter made to adjust the monitor/face distance; it turned out in my cases the screen is WAY more adjustable than I had thought (from the pictures), so you can get pretty darn close the screen if that's what you need to do.

I've been using it for 6 months now, and although a bit speedy, it's been worth it! I now enjoy spending longer times in from of the screen, it is SO much better than the previous home-made setup I had cobbled together.

If you or your loved one has special needs, please do contact AltWork, they're on your side!

Also, the extra weight of a full modern iMac is no problem for the stand, works like a champ.

This chair is a lifesaver for me, I work 12 hrs a day in front on my computer screens, as I am on the software industry. Having knee and tendon surgeries, countless hours of chiropractor, I know what it is seating on a regular chair and fighting to stay on a ergonomic posture at all times. Altwork gave me the means to do just that, my legs stays up improving blood flow and circulation, my back stay straight, me eyes at equal distance to the monitors, helping reduce eye strain as well. It is funny that all our business is going to the cloud nowadays, and I feel I work laying in the clouds, enhancing my productivity and my well being. If you work long hours in front a computer, this is a god sent solution, and a conversation starter on any meeting, as I use live cameras and people always ask about it, with how cool it looks and how comfortable I look online. Thank you Altwork for this amazing engineering and innovation.

Everyone that I worked with, from the Corporation to the installers, were extremely attentive to my particular needs, professional, and efficient.
The work station itself has made all the difference in making my work day less painful. I would highly recommend it for anyone who suffers from any type of paralysis or muscular/skeletal issues.

I have had my Altwork Station for about six months now. It has functioned flawlessly, and I have been able to be very productive with my work. The back, hip, and sciatica pain I was experiencing working in a seated position have almost entirely resolved. Thank you, Altwork!

I can say that the Altwork solution has been a complete game changer for me. I can tell a massive difference when I'm working in my Altwork Station in my office vs working in other environments.

It's hard to explain, but I'm able to unlock a level of focus and flow in my Altwork that I can't get anywhere else. I'm just able to think and work at a higher level. OK, I admit that I initially bought it for the cool factor. But I'm keeping it because it helps me to accomplish more.

It's everything they say it will be, and more! The Altwork have truly revolutionized the way I work and will be a key factor in maintaining a healty body sitting in front of a computer all day. I don't belive words can fully describe the feeling, you have to experience it for yourself!

I have suffered for years with neck issues, and it would limit the amount of work I could do in a day. With my Altwork chair I never want to leave work, I LOVE IT. I can work 12 hours straight and still be really comfortable.
This chair is gonna take my company to 15 mil in rev this year no question this chair is a GAME CHANGER!

I suffered a lumbar disc tear and the Altwork station was critical in my recovery. I was able to avoid surgery partly due to the fact that I could continue to work on a daily basis without loading my lower back.

Excellent piece of engineering, very well made very comfortable. Well worth the wait. Everybody that sees and try's it wants one.

My entire back and shoulders used to hurt by the end of my work day. I was living on Advil. My Altworks desk relieves the pain as soon as I position it. It allows me to work those necessary extra hours. I absolutely love the desk. No regrets at all.

We spend half of our lives in bed and almost as much time sitting in a chair at work.

If I’ve learned one thing that’s worth sharing,
Invest in a good bed and invest in a good chair.

My AltWork Station is far more than a good chair.

I broke my leg and with the Altwork unit in my office, I am able to work at my computer for hours if needed, without issues. My favorite setting is only slightly reclined with my legs up. It's been wonderfully helpful during my healing process and easier on my back in general. I couldn't be happier with the purchase.
