ergoCentric Leg Rest

This is exactly what I was looking for. I have lymph-edema in one leg and sit at my desk all day long and by the end of the day my leg and foot ache. Since I received this I have it under my desk and I stuck a regular bed pillow on top. The highest setting puts it right even with the seat on my desk chair and with the wheels I can move around from side to side when I need to (L shaped desk) without having to take my leg down and then right back forward again. Very convenient and seems to be high quality item. I am very happy with it.

Just purchased, and truly delighted. Strong construction, with durable fabric. Good looking and will hold up nicely. Would appreciate wheel locks, which could be offered as an option in the future, I wonder? !! Slow shipping, without provision of tracking number; had to contact company. Otherwise, extremely pleased ~~

I am so happy with this purchase. It is so comfortable and the absolute perfect height for my leg. I need a knee replacement and this is exactly what I needed.

The leg rest arrived ready to use. It did not require assembly. The material is comfortable and appears to be fluid repellant characteristics. It appears to be a really good product and adequately priced. I do recommend it.

I would like to have given this product 4 1/2 stars only because it is not easy to lower unless you are sitting on it. It is a leg rest so I have no reason to sit on it. I really appreciate the design, fabric and how comfortable this makes my legs. I sit at my desk for over 8 hours and my legs never had it so good! No excessive swelling of legs and feet now - what a blessing. I really appreciate the company taking my health and comfort in to account and buying this for me. It was a very kind overture on the part of United Health Care and is very much appreciated. The fact that it came assembled shows thoughtfulness and kindness on the part of the manufacturer and for people with physical handicaps this is a wonderful asset!

I took it out of the box, no assembly required, put it under my desk put my legs up and Oh the Joy!!! Extremely comfortable and I have no problem with it hitting my chair rollers at all. I have a L shaped desk and it move around with me with easy. Hope it helps give my legs more circulation and lessens the swelling. Only have had it a couple of days but I have no complaints. I haven't needed to lower or raise it height was perfect straight out of the box.

If you're going to buy a leg rest for your office this better be it. This is the only high quality leg rest I have found on the market other than foot rests. A leg rest is either one of two things, an accessory for people with an injured leg or foot, or an accessory for people like me, people who don't like keeping their feet on the floor where you don't feel relaxed and reclined, also your feet get cold down there. Now first of all starting with the actual cushion. The surface gives you a pretty generous amount of area to rest your lower leg. In fact, this leg rest conforms to your legs, so as long as you use it where the taller portion is closer to you it will mold to your legs with its memory foam, and yes if you take your hand and squish it you will take note that it is quite padded. I picked the "Boom" fabric because I wanted something a little more subtle and black, it feels pretty soft, but its not like I wanted a soft textile anyways, I usually wear soft pants at home. Now on to the base and height adjustments. I agree with Patrick that the pneumatic height adjustments are a bit odd, but it is basically a chair on wheels without a back, my two cents is that it should go a little higher. I'm using this with a Herman Miller Embody and all I can say is that I probably should have gotten a chair with a headrest because that's the only part of my body that's not supported. Overall, it feels great when I recline.

Pros: Conforming, comfortable, nice fabric.
Cons: Might be a bit short, or the max height adj is not high enough.

I bought this leg rest for long term comfort with my Embody chair. I do not particularly feel comfortable with my feet on the ground and feel they get cold and fatigued over time, so I use a blanket to cover them. This is one of the only ergonomic office leg rests out there that is quality. If you want to lounge in your chair and recline it is useful to prop up your feet, overall its a sturdy long-lasting product that can be aimed for professional home use.

Pros:
Memory foam
Multiple quality fabric options, I have the black ice fabric.
Office style casters
Shaped to cradle your legs

Cons:
Might not fit under your desk
The hydraulic height adjustment works like a chair
The casters of your chair and leg rest might collide

I purchased the leg rest to go with my Ergohuman chair, and together they are comfortable enough for me to work at my desk for the whole day. I am a programmer, and often have to spend more than twelve hours at a stretch in front of the computer. This leg rest in combination with a reclining chair such as the Ergohuman allows me to lie back with my feet propped up during extended coding sessions. It is even comfortable enough for napping!

The build quality is excellent. The fabric is simple and sturdy, and the body is durably made. Under normal usage conditions, I can see this leg rest easily lasting for more than a decade of daily use.

The reason I gave the chair four instead of five stars was the choice to use a weight activated height adjustment function. Mechanically it functions identically to many office chairs. When you pull the lever the leg rest rises, and when you apply sufficient weight and pull the lever the leg rest falls. However, while this is a fine design for a chair, it is pretty awkward for a leg rest; because you do not typically sit on your leg rest! Thus if my leg rest is too high, I have to get off of my chair, then sit on the leg rest in order to apply enough weight to make the leg rest fall. This makes height adjustment rather awkward.
