The future of seating today. Excluvsive Push Button control system, all at your fingertips! Malanga takes high-tech ergonomics to the next level with button technology. Button controls are user friendly, conveniently located and easy to reach. As a result, users are more likely to adjust their chair – a necessity to promote comfort, encourage movement, minimize muscle fatigue and skeletal injury.

Features:
• A contoured molded foam seat, built-in lumbar support and an upholstered outer back shell is standard on all models.
• Casters are standard.
• Multiple finishes
• Base and frame only come in Black
• All models (except armchair and side chair styles) are standard with a five-legged, injection molded "spider" base.

Specifications:
• Tilt Tension - Allows you to rock (back and forth movement) comfortably, without having to exert yourself by means of repeated heavy or forceful “pushing off” of the floor. Leg muscle fatigue is eliminated or greatly reduced, allowing for greater ease of enjoyment with your rocking chair
• Chair Tilt Lock – The ability to lock the chair’s tilt (angle adjustment function) setting into various set position(s) to accommodate your ideal working posture. Choose the seat angle that is most conducive to your comfort and productivity when seated for prolonged periods of time
• Seat Height – When seated, the distance between your knees and your feet resting on the ground creates an angle between your knees and your hips. This angle is determined by the height of the seat. The more extreme the angle, the greater the pressure under your thighs and accordingly blood flow is restricted. A properly adjusted or set seat height reduces this angle, easing blood flow.
• Back height – The overall height of the chair’s back panel, and its relation to the support of your lumbar (lower back) area. An accurately configured chair back height reduces the likelihood of back pain caused by long hours in a seated position.
• Forward Seat Angle – The angle at which the chair back tilts forward from 90 degrees (straight). An ideal forward seat angle increases comfort during prolonged seating and helps reduce disc pressure when the individual is leaning forward for an extended period of time due to the nature of their task (e.g. – typing ).
• Back Angle - The angle at which the chair back tilts backwards from 90 degrees (straight). Helps reduce disc pressure and relaxes your back muscles
• Arm Height – The height at which the chair’s arm rests are located (if included –some chairs do not include arm rests). Optimum arm height is determined by the torso (hip to shoulder) and upper arm (elbow to shoulder) lengths of the individual, and the corresponding angle at which the forearm (elbow to wrist) lays on the arm rest. Optimum arm height reduces muscular effort in the neck and shoulders when working, minimizing the risk of lingering pain in those areas.
• Waterfall Seat Edge – A steeply angled (close to 90 degree) seat front edge naturally increases the angle at which the lower legs descend to the ground from the knees. With consistent posture, this feature reduces pressure at the back of the knee, contributing to improved blood flow and long-term comfort
• Contoured Cushions – Ergonomically “shaped” cushions on the seat and back of the chair provide efficient support to the body, effectively allowing you to sit longer without discomfort
• Width Adjustment Arms – Related to arm height and angle; Allows outward movement of armrests to a) adjust angle of extension from shoulder to elbow to determine the most ergonomic position, and b) ensure proper support for forearms when coupled with a properly adjusted arm height and / or angle.
• Center-Tilt – A forward / backward tilt function from a pivot point under the center of the seat. Specific to body dimensions, particularly in the hips and related to the forward and back seat angles of the chair, the center-tilt function will enhance blood flow when set correctly.
