This BodyBilt 2504 is part of the BodyBilt Big & Tall Series. This chair offers the ultimate in comfort, style and configurability for those who are above average in height and/or weight. The reinforced seat is 22% larger than average chair seats and this chair will accommodate users up to 500 lbs. In addition, you select from the options you want and need including many options unique to the Bodybilt line and designed to prevent or relieve pain, stress and circulatory problems.

Like all BodyBilt high-back chairs, the BodyBilt 2504 provides exceptional comfort with upper and low back support. The soft, contoured neck roll adds head and neck support in the more reclined posture. The 10-Point Posture Control adjustability allows your fingers to adjust the tools to address and alleviate stressful aches and pains; few chairs on the market offer this level of control.

The wide contoured seat on the BodyBilt 2504 is considerably more comfortable than the flat seat designs on other chairs. Featuring passive weight distribution via surface contact, the 2504 encourages proper-seated posture and cushions the high-pressure points that lead to discomfort on flat seat designs.

Select how your BodyBilt 2504 chair will function

Select your mechanism: The mechanism determines how your chair adjusts and how it moves. The J mechanism offers full ergonomic adjustability J mechanism - (recommended) The J mechanism is the most popular as it maximizes the adjustability of the chair and pivots from the center of your seat. Both seat and back angles are infinitely adjustable throughout their range of motion. When tilt-lock is unlocked, this chair moves comfortably with your body. Can be used with a seat slider or back depth adjuster to allow for correct seat depth adjustment. J mechanism specifications: back forward tilt: 90.00° rear tilt: 105.00° tilt range: 15.00° lumbar over: 4.00" lumbar hi: 10.50" lumbar lo: 6.50" lumbar width: 14.00" seat forward tilt: 5.00° rear tilt: 11.00° tilt range: 16.00° S mechanism - The S mechanism is their original mechanism designed for up to 500lbs. As it offers fewer points of adjustment than the J mechanism and costs the same, we strongly recommend the J. S mechanism specifications: back forward tilt: 15° rear tilt: 90.00° tilt range: 15.00° lumbar over: 4.00" lumbar hi: 10.50" lumbar lo: 6.50" lumbar width: 14.00" seat forward tilt: 0.00° rear tilt: 10.00° tilt range: 10.00°

Design your Bodybilt 2504 chair back

Lumbar support options: Proper lower back support is crucial to a healthy seated posture. Air lumbar- Proper lower back support is crucial to a healthy seated posture. With the backrest height set to fit the curvature of your lower back (lumbar region) the Air Lumbar® can be inflated to adjust the firmness of the backrest by pumping air into the lumbar area. To inflate the backrest, press the black rubber bulb with your thumb or fingers until the lumbar area is noticeably firmer. To let the air out, press the black button.   S'port foam lumbar - Crafted of comfortable s'port memory foam, the s'port lumbar is non-adjustable but perfect for those that prefer that softer, contoured feel. Adjust your seat back height for proper placement. Back cushion padding options: Standard back cushion padding on all BodyBilt chairs consists of durable and comfortable, multi-density foam, unlike less expensive chairs that use single-density, molded foam cushions. S'port foam - Users who either prefer extra softness or who need added reduction of pressure on their back will prefer S'port foam on their chair back. S'port Foam is BodyBilt's added layer of memory foam in seat and/or backrest. As with all foam layers in BodyBilt seats and back, the added S'port foam is strategically positioned for maximum effect in softness, pressure reduction and anatomical fit. S'Port Ridge - A BodyBilt exclusive feature, The S’port Ridge is a vertical foam ridge that offers amazing added support to the middle (thoracic region) and upper back. Your eyes may not see it but your body will definitely feel it! It's an innovation that will change the ergonomic industry's perception of the standard for seating. BodyBilt's new S'port Ridge™, a raised perimeter in the backrest that supports the upper thorax, will in no small way, make a big improvement in the comfort level of the user. The difference simply has to be experienced to be appreciated. (note entire back includes s'port foam) The S'port Ridge™, was conceived and developed by BodyBilt in conjunction with Occupational Therapists in an effort to address this vital area for our seated end users. The S'port Ridge™ is a raised, vertical, foam cushion, which is placed along the thoracic ridge and lumbar support areas of the back. This thoracic support encourages a person to sit with their shoulders rolled back while seated, as this is the way the body was designed. This healthy posture enables the scalene muscles to relax, which relieves the pressure on the brachial plexus nerves. It also alleviates the increased tension in the muscles of the upper back, and improves breathing by raising the chest cavity. The S'port Ridge™ delineates the proper curvature of our spinal cord, therefore supporting it in a natural, healthy posture during the seated portion of a workday. This relaxed posture alleviates back aches, neck aches, tiredness and fatigue, and improves circulation and digestion.

Design your seat cushion

Choose your seat padding: Standard seat padding is constructed of mutiple layers of foam - multi-density foam, which provides softness where you want it and firmness for superior support. Less expensive chairs use a single density foam. S'port foam seat - S'port Foam is BodyBilt's added layer of memory foam in seat and/or backrest. As with all foam layers in our seats and back, the added S'port foam is strategically positioned for maximum effect in softness, pressure reduction and anatomical fit. ROHO Cushioning - For 30 years, the ROHO cushion (www.therohogroup.com) has countered the pressures associated with wheelchair users, and now BodyBilt offers the seated worker the same technology perfectly fitted and positioned under the foam. The ROHO option is a network of individual, interconnected air cells that allow air to slowly transfer from chamber to chamber as it more evenly distributes body weight and enhances blood flow. BodyBilt's unique seat contour system of passive weight dispersion + Air cushioning of ROHO® dry flotation technology = The virtual elimination of seated pressure

How tall do you want your chair to be?

The cylinder you select will determine how high, or low you can position yourself in front of your work area, or desk. Most chairs come with a standard cylinder which will work well for most people. When your chair is adjusted to a proper height, your feet should rest flat on the ground. However your proximity to your work surface takes precedence over height from floor. If your work surface is higher, you may need a taller cylinder and either a foot ring or foot rest for proper positioning.. Standard Cylinder: Standard on most models, measuring 5.5", offering a seat height range of 16.5" - 22" (range is half an inch lower on #7 seat). Standard color is black but chrome is available at no extra charge. Short Cylinder: The short cylinder is literally half the size of the standard, measuring 2.75 inches, and may be a good option if you know that your work or typing surface is lower than normal. If your keyboard sits below 27" from the floor, you may be better off with a short cylinder. Also available in chrome. Seat height adjustment range is 14.25" - 17" (range is half an inch lower on #7 seat). Tall Cylinder: 7.5" stroke works well for those seeking a high chair for a higher work surface or a sit-stand workstation. Height adjustment range is 21.5" - 29". Use of a footring is highly recommended. Also available in chrome. Extra Tall Cylinder: With a height range of 10", this is the tallest cylinder option available for Task Seating only, and should be combined with a footring, for safety. Again, it is not a matter as much a matter of the size of the person, as it is the height of the work surface. If your work surface is extraordinarily higher than most standard desks and work surfaces, this option will be a good choice. Use of glides or locking casters is a must for safety.

Stitching options:

Standard Upholstery
Fabric is stretched and secured to your cushions providing a smooth and professional appearance and allowing for maximum softness of your cushions.

Double Stitching Smooth
The double stitching, as you can see, is an exceptionally nice addition to a leather chair.

Stitching Ease/Loose
This very classy “panel look” is popular on leather chairs and highly recommend for the added softness it gives to leather upholstery.

Diamond Tufting
The diamond tufting gives your ergonomic chair that classic office chair look, and is available only on the Management and Executive Seating. Note it is not recommended on seats where extra softness, s'port foam or ROHO seat is used as it will compromise the softness of your cushion.
