FAQ Working Chairs
A working chair is a godsend for anyone who has difficulty standing, walking or moving around safely in their home for long periods of time. People with mobility limitations, reduced balance or chronic fatigue benefit greatly from a working chair, but it can also be a godsend for people who have just undergone a medical procedure such as knee or hip surgery. Thanks to its ergonomic design and adjustable functions, a working chair chair provides support for a variety of mobility needs. In addition, you can opt for an electric working chair, which allows you to easily adjust the height and position of the chair at the touch of a button. The chair is designed for comfortable seating and often offers various settings, such as seat height adjustment, backrest and armrests. This provides extra convenience, especially when you have to sit down and stand up frequently.
A working chair significantly increases independence by giving people with specific conditions greater mobility, stability and independence in their own homes.
The main advantages are:
- Independent movement: Users can moving forward with their feet around the room while seated, so they don't have to stand up and walk. This is ideal for people with balance problems, fatigue or painful joints (e.g. due to rheumatism, osteoarthritis, MS or Parkinson's disease).
- The adjustable seat height allows users to reach items at different heights, such as countertops, cupboards or tables. This reduces dependence on others for daily tasks such as cooking or household chores.
- Safety and stability: The sturdy construction and often braked wheels provide a secure seat, significantly reducing the risk of falls. This is crucial for people with reduced muscle strength or balance problems.
- Energy conservation: Minimising the effort of standing and walking conserves energy. This is essential for people with chronic fatigue (such as in MS) or heart and lung conditions, leaving them with more energy for other activities.
In short, a working chair increases independence and quality of life and enables users to participate more actively in their daily lives, greatly improving their well-being and sense of control.
When choosing a working chair, it is important to consider your personal mobility needs. MSP Medical offers three popular models: Adam, Levi and Milo. Each of these models has unique features that suit different wishes and requirements.
Adam working chair: Adam, also known as the “workhorse”, has electric height adjustment and can support a user weight of up to 135 kg. This chair is ideal for elderly people or people with physical limitations, as it helps them to continue living independently at home for longer. The electric adjustment makes it easier to stand up and sit down, which increases independence. Adam comes standard with a folding bracket and foldaway armrests, which makes lateral transfers easier.
Levi working chair: Levi is the entry-level model and is ideal for temporary mobility problems, for example after knee surgery. Thanks to its gas spring mechanism, this chair is popular in the rental market. It is an affordable choice for people who still have enough physical function to operate the high/low adjustment with a gas spring.
Milo working chair: Supports a user weight of up to 180 kg and has electric brakes on all four wheels for optimum stability. This chair has been specially developed for people with serious physical limitations and offers a wide range of adjustment options, including electric tilt and/or backrest adjustment and adjustable leg supports.

When purchasing a working chair, there are a few important points to consider to ensure that the chair best suits the user's needs. After all, a good mobility chair increases independence and comfort at home. Consider, for example, the adjustability of the chair: can you adjust the seat height and backrest to suit your body? Another point to consider is whether to choose a manual or electric version. An electric working chair offers more convenience and comfort, especially if you have difficulty standing up or if you spend long periods of time sitting down.
