Adjustable foot support for better seated positioning
Is Your Chair at the Right Height for Your Desk, but Your Feet Don't Reach the Floor?
This is one of the most common reasons a footrest becomes an important part of an ergonomic workstation.
Your chair may need to sit higher so your arms and shoulders are positioned comfortably at the desk. The problem is that raising the chair can leave your feet unsupported or only just touching the floor.
The Adjustable Ergonomic Footrest gives your feet a stable surface underneath the desk, with six height settings and adjustable tilt so you can position it around your chair, desk and body.
Don't lower a correctly positioned chair just to make your feet reach the floor.
If your chair height works for your desk but leaves your feet unsupported, bring the floor up to you with an adjustable footrest.
More Than Somewhere to Put Your Feet
A footrest can help create a more stable seated position by giving both feet something solid to rest against rather than leaving your legs hanging or encouraging you to perch forward in the chair.

Textured surfaces and the integrated centre foot massager give restless feet something to move against during the day.
Why Would Your Feet Stop Reaching the Floor?
Your chair height should usually be considered in relation to the work surface in front of you.
If the desk is relatively high, you may need to raise your chair so your elbows and forearms can work at a more comfortable height.
For shorter users in particular, this can leave the feet unsupported.
Rather than lowering the chair and potentially compromising your upper-body position, a footrest creates a new support surface at the height your feet need.
Need More Height? It Adjusts Up to 18cm.
A low footrest is not useful if your feet still cannot comfortably reach it.
The Adjustable Ergonomic Footrest offers six distinct height positions:
- 8cm
- 10cm
- 12cm
- 14cm
- 16cm
- 18cm
This wider height range makes it useful for people who need anything from modest foot support through to a considerably raised foot position.
How High Should You Set Your Footrest?
There is no single height that is right for everyone.
Start with your chair adjusted appropriately for your desk and upper-body working position. Then adjust the footrest until your feet feel securely supported without excessive pressure beneath the thighs.
1
Set Your Chair First
Position your chair in relation to your desk, keyboard and mouse rather than adjusting it purely around your feet.
2
Choose the Footrest Height
Raise the footrest until both feet can rest securely without your legs hanging unsupported.
3
Adjust the Tilt
Change the platform angle until your ankles and feet feel comfortable rather than forcing them into a rigid position.
Your Feet Don't Need to Stay Fixed at One Angle All Day
The foot platform can be adjusted through a range of 0° to 30°.
This allows you to vary the angle beneath your feet rather than keeping your ankles locked into the same position throughout the working day.
Use a flatter position when that feels comfortable, or introduce more tilt when you prefer your toes to sit higher.
Prefer to Move Your Feet While You Work?
Not everyone wants to sit completely still.
The platform includes textured treads and a central foot massage section, giving you surfaces to move, roll or press your feet against while seated.
This can make the footrest particularly appealing if you naturally fidget with your feet or prefer small amounts of lower-leg movement while concentrating.
i
Movement is still important. A footrest can support your seated position, but it should not replace regularly changing posture, standing up and moving during the day.
Textured Support Under Your Feet
The surface is not simply a flat plastic platform.
Textured sections provide additional contact beneath the feet, while the integrated centre massage feature gives you another surface to move your feet across during long desk sessions.
You can simply rest your feet on the platform when you want stable support, then use the textured or massage area when you feel like introducing more movement.
Who Is This Footrest Best Suited To?
Feet Not Reaching the Floor
Shorter Desk Users
Long-Hour Sitting
Restless or Fidgety Feet
It is particularly useful when your chair needs to remain higher for your workstation setup, but that chair height leaves your feet without reliable support.
Think of the Footrest as Part of the Whole Workstation
A footrest works best when it solves a genuine workstation fit issue.
Your chair, desk, keyboard, mouse, monitor and foot support should work together rather than each being adjusted in isolation.
- Adjust your chair around your desk height
- Keep your shoulders relaxed while working
- Keep your keyboard and mouse within easy reach
- Support your feet if they cannot comfortably reach the floor
- Avoid excessive pressure beneath the thighs
- Continue changing position during the working day
Using a Footrest Because Sitting Has Become Uncomfortable?
Supporting the feet may help you establish a more stable seated position when your feet would otherwise hang or only partially contact the floor.
However, a footrest is not a treatment for back, hip, knee or leg pain.
If you have persistent discomfort or an existing musculoskeletal condition, consider having your workstation and sitting position reviewed by a physiotherapist, occupational therapist or other appropriate health professional.
A Practical, Stable Platform for Everyday Desk Work
The footrest is designed to provide a substantial surface beneath both feet while remaining compact enough to sit underneath a typical workstation.
At 44cm wide × 31cm deep, there is room to reposition your feet rather than keeping them fixed together in one spot.
The sturdy construction makes it suitable for regular use in home offices and workplace environments.
Simple to Set Up
The footrest requires only straightforward initial setup before it can be positioned beneath your desk.
Once assembled, choose your preferred height setting, adjust the platform angle and place it where both feet can comfortably reach it from your normal seated position.
✓
Do not place it too far forward. You should be able to reach the footrest naturally without sliding forward in your chair or stretching your legs to find it.
Choose Black or White to Suit Your Workspace
The Adjustable Ergonomic Footrest is available in black or white, making it easy to match with darker office furniture or lighter contemporary workstation setups.
