Everything you need to get the most out of your chair.
Give your body time to adapt — here's what to expect.
Start with 20–30 min sessions. Your body is adapting — some shin pressure is completely normal.
Gradually extend your sitting time. Tighten the cross-bolts after the first week as the wood settles.
Enjoy longer, more supported sessions. Rotate between kneeling, sitting cross-legged, and standing.
A few habits make all the difference.
Hips open at ~110°, spine naturally upright. Let the rocking base do the work — micro-movements engage your core passively.
Tool-free adjustment. Set the seat so your hips sit slightly higher than your knees. Works best with desks 29–35 inches tall.
2–4 hrs kneeling → 30 min standing → 2–4 hrs kneeling. Movement is the goal, not static sitting.

Honestly, no. If you're dealing with a knee injury, recent surgery, or arthritis, this chair puts weight on your knees and shins by design. It's built to open tight hips and strengthen posture, not to rehabilitate an existing joint problem. We'd rather you skip it than end up in pain.
A bit of pressure is normal. About 30% of your weight rests on the shin pads while the seat carries the rest. Most users adjust within 3 to 7 days. Start with 20–30 minute sessions and raise the seat one notch if the pressure feels too strong early on.
Our cushions use 40-density high-density foam — about 50% thicker than most competitors. They stay firm at first and gradually mold to your shape over the first week or two. Cushion integrity is covered by our 3-year warranty.
The chair fits users comfortably up to about 6'2". Above that, use the top adjustment setting with a desk of 30" or taller. If you're broad through the hips, keep the seat centered so the oak sides clear your legs. Beyond 6'2" or 250 lb, this chair isn't the right fit.
Yes. The seat sits about 20" off the ground and works with standard desks between 29" and 35", including standing desks. No tools needed to adjust. If your knees brush the underside, raise the desk or lower the seat one notch.
The rocking motion is intentional — that's what engages your core. Side-to-side looseness is different: tighten the cross-bolts firmly after the first week of use as the oak settles. Once tightened, the frame handles up to 250 lb and is covered by our 3-year warranty.
Place both bolts in the notch position you want, then tighten the knobs firmly — firmer than feels natural. If the pad still moves, it's likely off by one notch: lift, reposition, retighten. Knobs loosen naturally over time, so a quick check every few weeks keeps everything in place.
About 15 to 20 minutes following the printed instruction manual included in the box. Pro tip: have someone hold the side panels while you thread the bolts, and leave every bolt loose until they're all in — then tighten everything at the end. If a hole doesn't align, email us a photo at hello@moonally.com and we'll ship the replacement part free.
Every chair ships brand new. If yours has a scratch or a missing component, contact hello@moonally.com within your 30-day Amazon return window with a photo and we'll make it right. Individual parts ship free — no need to box up the whole chair for one missing piece.
It's designed for active sitting, not 8 hours static. Rotate: kneel, shift to cross-legged, stand for a bit. Most owners use it as their primary seat within that rotation. It makes good posture easy — but your core still does the work.
