Why doesnt Swopper have casters?
– Swopper does not have casters because there are a lot more health benefits related to having to get up and go to your fax machine, filing cabinet, printer or whatever, than there are with “scooting” across the floor. In fact, this bad habit is the cause of a lot more accidents at work than you would believe, and is responsible for many low back injuries. Swopper is very easy to move about, weighing just 23 pounds. If you have a “U” shaped work–station and have two different work areas in close proximity, it is worth noting that your range of motion from your seated position on Swopper is drastically increased from that of a conventional chair with casters. This means your reach is extended while maintaining correct posture. If this is not possible, then the compact nature of Swopper does allow for two units to fit in a compact work area if you so choose. It can also be fun and energizing to move from one to the other.
