With BERGMUND, Anders and the team studied new research to develop the shape of the seat and to find the optimal angle between the seat and the backrest. This resulted in several interesting insights about the human body – for example that the sit bones of all humans are actually very similar. "It’s true, regardless if someone is 1.85 metres tall or much shorter. So the bowl-shaped bottom of the seat was given a geometry that fits 99% of the world's population.”

As expected Anonymous reviewerVery pleased with this stool
Good chair for priceAnonymous reviewerEasy to assemble and cheap.
Very pleased overall.Anonymous reviewerI gave 4 stars as one aspect of assembling the chair was tricky for me. Apart from that, I am quite pleased and family find the chairs comfortable.
Very easy assembly and cumpfy to sit with good back supportAnonymous reviewerOverall a very well presented chair but, would be even a better offer if some sort of felt or rubber leg foot cup protectors were included. Would have loved to see a wider range of colours available for the covers.
Wobbly, one leg shorter Anonymous reviewerNice chairs but one of the chairs is wobbly. One of the legs is shorter than the other. Had to put lots of padding under that leg for stability. Should really contact ikea about this.
Problem with assemblyAnonymous reviewerI ordered 2 of these bar stools. The foot rest for both these cannot be secured as there is no thread for the screws to attach to so the screws fall out. Have tried numerous times to try and screw them in without success.
Very comfortable Anonymous reviewerVery comfortable, love Ikea
Bar stoolAnonymous reviewerEasy to put together good height and comfy like metal bit on cross piece where shoes can mark.

Really happyAnonymous reviewerGreat quality and very sturdy
Great productAnonymous reviewerEasy to put together, look great in my kitchen
Great barstool Anonymous reviewerLovely solid barstool with removable and washable cover.
Perfect height and easy to assembleAnonymous reviewerThe seat is the perfect height and contrary to other reviews very easy to assemble. The only niggle is the seat is a bit short front to back. An extra 1 or 2 cm would make it perfect
Cannot put items togetherAnonymous reviewerOne of the chairs has a nut inside that connects to another part which has a thread. The thread cannot reach the nut so i have a chair which is not fit for purpose
Nice stoolAnonymous reviewerVery pleased with the stool. Easy to assemble also.

Story
Innovation works wonders for your comfort
BERGMUND was created so that you can sit a little longer on your chair – without your legs starting to feel stiff or your back aching. To succeed, we dove into new research on the human body, looked for optimal angles and developed a new technique to get a really comfortable seat.
Sitting may not seem like an active movement, but it actually involves everything from the body's bones and muscles to tendons, cartilage and joints. "So that you sit comfortably for longer, it’s important that the body enjoys the right support in the right place", explains material developer Anders Bergner.
Our key common trait – sit bones
Innovation paves a way for more comfort
The polyester in the seat’s padding and backrest comprises of small vertical fibres which provide better elasticity compared to fibres which are more entangled. Anders and his team then developed an innovative technique to further increase the seating comfort by shaping the seat’s padding. “It compares to making a waffle. The polyester fibres are fed into a special tool where the correct shape fixes in place.” After several years of development, Anders hopes that BERGMUND helps people both enjoy nice seating comfort and even better moments together. "When everyone around the table is sitting comfortably, they can relax and focus more on each other."
Function solution
Choose the right bar stool height
Choose the right height of your bar stool so that it is comfy to sit on, offers plenty of leg room and is proportionate with the rest of your space. Kitchen counters and counter-height tables typically range from 87-91 cm from the floor. To find the perfect stool for your counter, look for a seat height of 60-66 cm. Tabletops or counters that measure between 101-106 cm from the floor, are typically classified as "bar height", and require a seat height of 72-76 centimetres.
Designer thoughts
Designer thoughts
“When designing BERGMUND chairs, we wanted to create seating for the many people, any day of the year. And as life changes, so can the covers - to fit the season, a special occasion or your mood - take your pick from the various colours and lengths. The only thing that doesn’t change is the soft, cushiony comfort and the chamfered legs that allow the cover to fall smoothly over the frame. We hope these chairs allow you and your friends to relax and stay comfy a bit longer."
