Product Details

A full synchronous task chair with a choice of upholstered or mesh back – Prompt Too pairs a full synchromatic mechanism with integrated forward tilt, free-flow recline and an adjustable tension control wheel. It is specified for office and home-office users who sit for extended periods and want the chair to move with them rather than hold them still.

The adjustments that change posture, included as standard – A 70 mm sliding seat sets seat depth to leg length, the backrest adjusts for height, and seat tilt is included rather than charged for. On the upholstered backs the chair is rated to a 150 kg user weight, above the 110 kg typical of standard office seating.

Key Highlights:

  • Rated to 150 kg user weight – GS certificate documented for the upholstered backs

  • Integrated forward tilt on both back types – opens the hip angle for close, concentrated work

  • Adjustable tension control wheel – sets recline resistance to your bodyweight

  • 70 mm sliding seat depth adjustment – standard, not an upcharge

  • Height-adjustable backrest – positions lumbar support to your spine, not the average

  • Three builds on one platform – upholstered 60 cm, upholstered 70 cm, or mesh 60 cm

Built for people who sit six hours a day or more – the adjustments on Prompt Too are the ones that change posture: seat height, seat depth, backrest height and recline resistance. Cold-moulded polyurethane foam is used on the seat and, on upholstered models, the backrest. Upholstery is applied without adhesives.

  • Pneumatic seat height adjustment: 41–54 cm upholstered, 40–52 cm mesh — set feet flat with a neutral knee angle

  • Sliding seat depth (70 mm): 42–49 cm upholstered, 40–47 cm mesh — clears the back of the knee while keeping full thigh support

  • Height-adjustable backrest: aligns the lumbar curve of the backrest to your own

  • Adjustable torsion control: a tension wheel sets how much resistance the recline offers

  • Integrated forward tilt: present on both the upholstered and mesh backs

  • Free-flow recline: move with the chair, or set the backrest where you want it

Prompt Too is specified by upholstery group. Groups 1 to 3 are hard-wearing upholstery fabrics, groups 4 and 5 are performance and wool-rich fabrics, and group 6 is leather. Your specific fabric within the chosen group is confirmed with you after you order.

On mesh models the seat is upholstered from your chosen group and the mesh backrest is specified separately.

Why it matters

Even a well-engineered chair won't help if it's set up incorrectly — you'll carry the same aches into a new chair. This guide covers the small, high-impact adjustments that fix the cause, not the symptom, so your chair delivers the comfort and support it's built for.

How you receive it

Place any order and we'll email your download link as soon as your order is confirmed. Open it on your phone, tablet or laptop and follow the steps as you set up your chair.

The Apex Ergonomics Pack is available only to Apex Comfort customers — not included when the same chairs are bought from general retailers or marketplaces.
