The Mirra Task Chair's (2003) spry, colorful form and affordable price belie the design's ingenious abilities: a combination of passive and active seating adjustments that deliver hassle-free performance and enduring comfort to a range of body types—about 95% of the population. The TriFlex back yields to the user's body shape to provide flexible and continuous support to the entire spine; through gradation, geometric cutouts create flex zones for supreme movement and to promote circulation. An adjustable lumbar piece supports the mid to lower back. The AireWeave suspension seat evenly distributes weight and dissipates heat. Seat depth is easily changed with the chair's innovative FlexFront, a four-stage adjustment that rolls the seat edge down to suit the user's proportions. The passive Harmonic tilt mechanism enables the body to naturally recline by creating pivot points at the hip, knee and ankle; a tilt tension adjustment follows a full range in just nine revolutions, and a tilt limiter controls the amount of recline while maintaining proper back support. Hard dual wheel casters for carpet. Slate Blue and Citron Chairs have a grey frame and the Graphite Chair has a graphite frame. Made in U.S.A.
