What Our Customers Are Saying
This setup rocks!
I use the “Tilt Seat” as my desk top for my laptop while sitting on the Peace Bench. I spend hours writing every morning this way. I alternate my legs on the bench – sometimes cross legged, sometimes spread out to the side of the desk, and sometimes under the bench. I can’t imagine ever going back to a normal desk again. The height is perfect.
Thanks for the amazing designs of your Body Friendly Furniture!
I received my Zen Office today and was amazed by how something so simple made such a difference in my posture, breathing, and overall comfort. I’m a bit on the heavy side and found the sky position to be the most effective and comfortable for my body type when using the Peace Bench. As for the Tilt Seat, it’s equally comfortable to sit on when I’m not using it as a laptop desk. I plan to take the Tilt Seat to work with me and banish my uncomfortable office chair to the storage closet!
Having used a gamut of seating situations for computer work, ranging from cardboard-box standing desks, to $22 Ikea hacks for a standing desk, and even yoga balls for active sitting, I can say with confidence that I don’t think I will ever need another desk besides the Carolina Mornings Zen Office. Since it breaks back down to two small packages, with no tools required for assembly, I can take it anywhere, and whenever I get tired in one position, I can quickly move to another.
Just wanted to thank you for the beautiful office. Like many, I recently had to start working from home. I live in a 295 square foot studio apartment without a designated office space because I did much of my work in my office or in the classroom. I ordered this when my neck and back were sore from using my computer and tablet on my small table and folding chair or on the floor. I appreciate the quicker-than-expected delivery, the simple and intuitive assembly, and the multiple options for use. The size is perfect: I can use it as a standup desk with my 20″ round table, to raise my tablet for use with an external keyboard, or as a floor desk as I’m doing now. Thank you for making life easier at a difficult moment. Take care of yourselves.
Tilt Seat Assembly Instructions
Tilt Seat™ Pieces
This is what you get in your box. Five pieces go together and come apart quickly.
Assembly Step #1
Start by inserting the bottom support and top support through the corresponding holes in one of the legs. Make sure the logo on the leg is facing inside.
Assembly Step #2
After connecting both the right leg and left leg with the cross supports, insert the small pegs through the slots that stick out on the outside of the leg.
Assembly Step #3
After the legs are secure, then place the top (seat) and insert the legs into the holes. It only fits one way so if it doesn’t work you probably have it reversed. Then bring cotton strap from seat top over the upper cross-bar that sticks out from outside leg as shown.
