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 6 ft tall or much shorter. So the bowl-shaped bottom of the seat was given a geometry that fits 99% of the world's population.”

Faulty legMeganWe bought 2 chairs. A year later, one of the rear legs is at a 60 degree angle, due to broken wood. How can I get a new leg?
Comfortable chairJenniferAssembled in minutes and seem very sturdy. Quite comfortable. Just what we needed to replace the small, uncomfortable dining room chairs we had. Wish there were more fabric/color choices for the removable covers and hope that more options are available in the future.
easy installDaniellevery pleased with the ease of installation.
Great qualityKarenChair was easy to put together. Good directions. Sturdy and comfortable. Chair cover is separate.
comfortableAnjaWe all enjoy these chairs. Easy to put together, so far sturdy and well-made. The removable covers are perfect and are washable.
Don’t buyVivianDon’t buy, I purchased four of this dinning chairs before. It started shaking after few months and it feel unstable. I have tightened all the screws several times but the problem keeps coming back just after a few uses
Great productLuciaEasy to assemble
Disappointed and retuned DawnReally expected better customer service. Had Harry chairs and had hoped these would match. The covers also didn't work and lost out on the $20 for new customer
Great chair, great priceThomasSuper easy to assemble and cover. Nice and sturdy.
Stylish and comfortableTanyaGreat price, well-made, comfortable and stylish. The chair looks more expensive than it is which is a huge plus! My only complaint I heard that limited colors of the covers offered. Consider offering covers for color pop-raspberry, turquoise, deep red or gold.
Nice Chair!RobertIt’s a nice chair!
Three stars for QC (or the lack of it) KimAssembled the chairs this morning- one of them took longer time because it looked slightly lopsided. After dismantling it and assembling that chair again, I was able to identify the problem - one of the legs turns out to be shorter!
NiceJoanneI am happy with the chair and the cover
Great dining room chairsSarahVery comfortable and classic lines. Love that chair covers can be cleaned and replaced for a different look
Comfortable BrendaLooks great with the Skogsta table
Grey?StephanieThe chairs are five stars, but why the short, grey slipcover?! Last year I ordered seven and eight long slipcovers. I need another. IKEA will have a great product and then drop it. Frustrating. The chairs are used daily and hold up well.
Comfortable chairs LauraThe chairs are easy to put together and are very sturdy. They’re comfortable to sit in and go very well with my table.
Nice chair and very confortable. DanielaAnyhow, i would have liked to buy a second cover in blue/white stipes. In all locations they are sold out and there is no information if they ever show up again. The store who has them will not ship them. So not very easy to get the cover you like. I might end up sewing some😁.
Very good quality Bilal10 stars
Great look for the right priceKentPurchased 8 Bergmund chairs. Work perfectly in our dining room and at a lot more reasonable price than any other chairs being considered. Assembly was easy. Removable, washable fabric is ideal for potential spills.

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 fibers 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 fibers 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."
