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.”

Reviews

Very comfortableAnonymous reviewerPleased with chairs. Fairly easy to assemble. Good height. Compliment existing table well
Chairs baseAnonymous reviewerBase too wide at front looks like V shape, would prefer straight shape and would look lot better
Very comfortableAnonymous reviewerChairs are very easily assembled and very comfortable
Stylish and Good QualityAnonymous reviewerVery stylish chair. Excellent quality and good value for money. Easy to assemble and to fit the cover.
Stains on chairAnonymous reviewerThe plastic bags were not sealed or taped, which left the white fabric of the chair exposed and resulted in staining as seen in pictures. Also we ordered four chairs but only three arrived.
Amazing solid very comfy chairsAnonymous reviewerSuch comfy high end smart looking chairs very happy with them

Well madeAnonymous reviewerQuality furniture and attractive fabric
Very comfy seatsAnonymous reviewerSeats are sturdy but very comfortable. Easy to put together
Dining chairAnonymous reviewerLove this chair and back padding is so comfortable
Easy to put togetherAnonymous reviewerLook good with the table
Good quality for the priceAnonymous reviewerWe’re happy with the chairs. Bought as a replacement pour fabric chairs that were too dirty and with lose springs, they fit the table well.
Only negative point is that the chairs have a chemical smell. Not sure if it’s from the chair itself or the cover. But it’s not too overpowering.
Very comfyAnonymous reviewerEasy to assemble and very comfortable.
Bergmund chairs - perfectAnonymous reviewerGreat quality chairs and very comfortable. Easy delivery. Simple to put together.
Great chairsAnonymous reviewerOrdered just two to start with and liked them so much that we ordered four more. Only problem is they are quite heavy compared with our old ones. But that a good thing really and we will soon get used to them
Very comfortable chairAnonymous reviewerHave to say the chair is very comfortable and appears yo be well made. Easy to put together and so was the cover. Took a while as i wanted to get it right. I like that the covers can be washed or changed
The reason i gave 4* was the price as i had seen similar for less for two chairs but out of stock.
Smart and easily assembled Anonymous reviewer I found that it was better to watch the videos before assembly especially when it came to putting the covers on, sitting on the chair after assembly helps stretching the covers and can be readjusted on the Velcro.
Assembly of chair made easy by placing the seat pad upside down on a chair with the back protruding over the edge and the back section can be placed in position leaving hands free to attach the legs.
Assembly took a leisurely hour and half for six chairs including fashioning adhesive felt pads to the leg bottoms.
I did have to take one of the covers off and realigned the beading but this took only minutes, I will be getting a spare set of covers for washing as I have grandchildren!
Easy assembly. Good quality product. Sturdy and secure. Anonymous reviewerOrdered on line. Assembled in a day. No problems.
Great chairAnonymous reviewerTop quality chair, really well designed and super easy to build, very comfortable to sit on as well

Story
Long dinners just got more comfortable
BERGMUND chair was created so that you can sit longer while enjoying nice dinners – without your legs starting to feel stiff or your back aching. To succeed, we dove into new research on the human body, which led to us developing 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."

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."
