Admin October 22, 2026

The office chair monkey stool usually refers to the Sanwa Monkey Stool Cross-Legged Chair, a computer peripheral accessory product from the Japanese brand Sanwa (SANWA). The following is an introduction from four aspects: design, functions, performance parameters, and user reviews:

Design Features

The Sanwa Monkey Stool Cross-Legged Chair adopts a double-layer design. The upper part is a spacious main seat, and the lower part is a footstool that can rotate 360 degrees. Both layers are covered with elegant black PU leather. The PU leather surface has a delicate luster, a warm touch, is water-repellent, and odorless. Daily maintenance only requires wiping with a damp cloth. The overall design combines aesthetics and practicality.

Functional Advantages

  • Preventing crossing legs: After sitting on it, your feet can be naturally placed on the footstool. You can bend your knees to relax or freely cross your legs, and your lower body is firmly supported. This design can break the body's habit of crossing legs and guide users to develop a healthy sitting posture.
  • Switching between multiple sitting postures: The footstool is about 70 cm wide. When crossing your legs, there is still some space on the outer sides of your knees, so they won't be left hanging. In addition, you can switch between different sitting postures such as bending your knees and correcting your kneeling posture, fully meeting the diverse sitting needs of users.
  • Multi-purpose: The footstool is wide and thick enough to serve as a storage platform. When working, you can easily place documents and materials on it without taking up desk space. When opening parcels, the height is just right, and you don't need to bend over. When soaking your feet, you can place an iPad and snacks on it, turning it into a lazy person's mobile side table. Even cats like to use it as a lookout.

Performance Parameters

The main seat can bear a weight of up to 100 kg, and the footstool can bear a weight of 50 kg, meeting the needs of most users. The seat height can be adjusted up and down, making it convenient for people of different heights to adjust to a suitable height. It is equipped with quiet rollers that won't damage the floor when moving, and the pneumatic rod lifts and lowers smoothly, making operation easy and convenient.

User Reviews

Some office workers who sit for more than 10 hours a day say that using this chair allows them to switch sitting postures at any time, effectively relieving waist fatigue. Their waists no longer ache, and the chair has gone from being a minor player in the study to the C-position furniture that the whole family competes to sit on. However, some office workers also think that it would be even better if the chair had a backrest. But overall, sitting on this stool feels very relaxing.
