The ordering process was fine, and the chair was delivered in a reasonable timeframe, and it was in good shape when it arrived.

This chair was fabulously expensive, and I was unsure of making the investment. I’ve now had the chair a week, and I understand the reason why this chair gets so many great reviews. The materials and design are solid and packed with adjustments. The leather was pricey, but absolutely beautiful. I am thrilled with my Leap chair, and I would definitely recommend it.

The contoured backrest features Leap’s patented Liveback® technology that changes shape to support your entire spine in its natural, healthy S-shape.
Patented Natural Glide™ adjustment allows the seat to glide forward so you can recline without leaving your optimal zone for seeing and reaching your work.
Leap is the ultimate office chair for adjustability, providing personalized support and comfort.
A manually adjustable tilt mechanism lets you dial in the level of resistance you feel against your back as you recline; a variable back stop allows you to lock in your preferred recline or upright position.
Armrests attach at the base, allowing arms to remain parallel to the work surface as you move, so you can stay comfortably on the task at every angle of recline.
Strong yet pliable foam with adaptive bolstering (air pockets under the foam) in the seat conforms to the body and creates pressure-free comfort.
Flexible seat edge offers a bit of bend, right where you need it – relieving pressure points under your thighs.
Adjustable seat pan glides in and out to support your underside and thighs optimally – with the seat edge two or three inches from the back of your knee.
Fully adjustable armrests raise up and down, pivot in and out, and shift forward and back and side to side, to provide steady support for your arms so your shoulders can remain in a relaxed position.

Product Care

While we advise against the use of disinfectants to clean the fabric on your Steelcase Leap chair, there are easy methods to keep your chairs clean and tidy with a mixture of 1 part clear dish detergent and 16 parts water in a spray bottle. Spray your fabric surface lightly and evenly, allowing it to soak through before absorbing the leftover moisture with a wet/dry vac. The metal and plastic parts can be safely cleaned with a damp cloth and a gentle soap as needed, and buffed dry with a soft non-abrasive cloth to prevent streaking.
