If I had a penny for everytime I had been asked “What do Urban Office Interiors sit in” then I would……… you get the rest.

Well, we do get asked and we do tell.  It was only yesterday that a client told me the girls on reception loved the chairs and thanked us for our suggestion.  The original question was indeed, “what do you sit in”..  After the client tested the chair which we sent to them, they were 100% that it was the correct chair for them.  The client even wanted to keep the demo chair until the new chairs arrived..  So, you may ask – what do we sit on..

 Yes, the Open Mind mesh back task chair from Sedus Stoll.  After just over a year of owning this chair, I can report that they are still going strong (as all chairs do from our selection) and are in great condition.  Sedus Stoll (from Germany – so you know its well built) are one of Europes top manufacturers.  Componently, the chairs are great and move with ease and sturdyness.
