FAQ
These chairs must be super heavy!
You're not wrong there, on average we are talking 35kg of pure comfort!
This only affects delivery, our chairs use oversized castors so they roll easily.
If this is such a good idea, why haven’t I seen chairs like this before?
If you search for “car seat office chair” you’ll find plenty of images of DIY attempts.
We aren’t the first to come up with the idea because it makes perfect sense.
What we are first at, is designing a solution that’s elegant, ergonomic and affordable. All thanks to modern technology and professional mechanical engineering experience.
Did we already mention how modest we are?
Are the chairs stable? What happens if I recline all the way back?
Yes, our chairs are very stable, even in a fully reclined position. Lunchtime nap certified!
We give cheap nylon 5-spoke bases a wide berth and only use large aluminium bases for maximum stability.
Our seat bases are designed with aid of FEA structural simulation to ensure long-lasting rigidity. We’ve been making our chairs since 2019 with zero failures.
I weigh more than average. Will I find the chair comfortable? What’s the weight limit?
Our chairs use parts certified up to 150 kg, but because of the added weight of the car seat and our built-to-last components, we recommend the maximum user weight to be 130 kg (20 stone).
As for comfort, it depends on the seat you choose - car seats are generally larger than standard office chairs and work well for larger builds. Just avoid heavily bolstered sports seats like M Sport, S-line, AMG, etc.
Any advice before buying a seat for conversion?
- Choose a manually adjustable seat: Ensure the seat is a non-electric version, the kits do not fit electrically operated seats.
- Verify compatibility: Confirm the seat matches the kit’s specifications (model, generation/year, and trim level). If you're unsure, feel free to message us for assistance.
- Inspect the condition: Carefully check the seat’s condition. If the ad photos are grainy ask for clearer images, especially focused on any wear or defects.
- Opt for a passenger seat if possible: Passenger seats experience less use so are typically in better condition than driver’s seats.
Do you ship the kits outside UK?
In short, yes!
Being a small business we don’t have the capacity to handle the post-Brexit bureaucracy for international shipping ourselves given the little profit we make on each kit and time it would take us.
However, we recommend using Forward2Me, a reliable service that provides you with a UK address for shipping. They handle the paperwork and forward your order to you for a small fee. Just keep in mind, VAT and import duties will apply. Forward2Me will give you a breakdown of all costs before you commit to anything.
Do you ship the chairs outside UK?
Yes we do! Contact us to get an individual shipping quote, we can deliver your chair to nearly any place in the world.
For EU countries the shipping is actually very affordable.
Returns - what if I change my mind or buy the wrong seat?
If there’s an issue with any part of the kit or chair, rest assured we’ll do everything possible to resolve it promptly, at no cost to you and with minimal inconvenience.
Changed your mind? No problem. You have 30 days from delivery to return your item. Please note that return shipping is your responsibility, and items must be securely packaged to avoid damage in transit.
This also applies to conversion kits purchased for the wrong seat. If you're unsure about compatibility, contact us before ordering - we're happy to help!
