Specification

The Freedom with Headrest, In Detail

Refurbished Humanscale Freedom with headrest from £450 ex VAT. Every chair is checked for authenticity and function tested before it reaches you.

One size, and no size to choose. The Freedom sets its own recline resistance from your body weight, so the only things anyone adjusts are seat height, headrest height and the arms. Black fabric is the common stock. We can reupholster in any colour if you want the chairs to match a scheme.

Why refurbished

Why Choose a Refurbished Freedom

Humanscale built the Freedom to run for 15 years or more with almost no maintenance, so a five to seven year old chair is barely halfway through. Every chair is checked for authenticity first. If it is not genuine, or it does not meet our standard, it is recycled rather than sold.

  1. Fully stripped and assessed then rebuilt to specification, not just cleaned up
  2. Mechanism tested under load the recline is set by body weight, so it is tested with weight on it
  3. Worn parts replaced gas lifts, castors and arm pads as needed
  4. Upholstery and frame deep cleaned and moving parts lubricated

Choosing

Headrest or Low Back

The headrest is worth having if people recline while they read or take calls, because the head is supported through the whole movement. The low back is the one for benched desks, rooms with low sightlines and anywhere a headrest blocks the view across the floor. The chair underneath is the same and so is the mechanism. Mixed orders are normal.

Used, Second Hand or Refurbished?

Most businesses searching for a used Humanscale Freedom are looking for something better than a traditional second-hand purchase. There is an important distinction, and it matters when you are furnishing a working office. Second hand means sold as found and untouched. What we supply is refurbished: every chair is stripped, inspected, rebuilt to specification and quality-checked before it leaves us. The chair has had a previous life. The standard it arrives at is not. So if you are searching for a second hand Freedom to reduce costs, you are in the right place. What you will receive is considerably better than second hand.

Common questions

Refurbished Freedom Explained

Are your Freedom chairs genuine Humanscale?

Yes. We only supply authentic Humanscale chairs. Every chair is checked for authenticity during inspection, and anything that does not pass is recycled rather than resold.

Are refurbished Freedom chairs the same as second hand?

No. Second hand means sold as found and untouched. Our Freedom chairs are professionally refurbished: stripped, inspected, rebuilt and quality-checked before they leave us. You receive a chair that performs like new, with a 12-month warranty on the parts we replace.

What warranty do you offer on refurbished Freedom chairs?

A 12-month warranty on the parts we replace during refurbishment, subject to our terms and conditions.

How does the self-adjusting recline work?

A counterbalance mechanism inside the chair is set by your own body weight. Lean back and it reclines smoothly, and it holds you wherever you stop. There is no tension dial to wind up, which is why the chair suits desks that different people use.

Does the Freedom come in different sizes?

No. It is one size and it fits users from roughly 165 to 195 cm, up to 136 kg. What you choose is the back height: this page is the high back with headrest, and the low back has its own page.

What colours can I have?

Black fabric is the common stock and it is what most orders go out in. We can reupholster in any fabric and colour if you want the chairs to match a scheme, which is worth doing on a large order.

Do you buy Humanscale Freedom chairs?

Yes, and they are among the chairs we most want. We buy Humanscale seating from 25 chairs upwards, from businesses only. Send us photos and quantities and we will make an offer.
