Thank you for your 5 star review Dorothy - our staff spend a great deal of time helping people to choose the right chair and use their knowledge to show how to use the chairs correctly. Your office chair should benefit you for many years!
Fantastic service by great in-store…
Fantastic service by great in-store specialists! Every experience I have had at Back in Action has been truly enjoyable and educational (starting with my first encounter with Abby). Most recently, I had the pleasure of being looked after by Kuvesh, who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, patiently guiding me through the options and helping me find the perfect solution for my needs. He took the time to explain all the features in detail and helped me find the right chair. Highly recommend Back in Action to anyone looking for expert advice and attentive service!

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. The Tripp Trapp is a fantastic design and is a great gift that your daughter will benefit from for many years. (My two are now adults and still love their chairs.)

Thank you for your 5 star review - our staff work hard to provide a great service and really appreciate positive feedback (particularly on whether instructions are helpful or not) - the VariablePlus is a great design and will reward you for many years - so thank you and enjoy your chair!
Can't recommend enough. Excellent service and products.
Great service and great product line. Really useful to be able to actually see and feel the products. The reason why these products are more expensive than standard office equipment etc becomes very obvious once you use them in person. Saved my back!

Thank you for your review - not everyone is able to visit one of our lovely stores but our staff work hard to provide a great service whether in person or on the phone - but it is true that being able to physically touch and use products is a massive help in making the right choice and particularly to feel the quality. Thanks again for taking the time to submit a review our staff really appreciate it!
Great service and advice from Back in Action
I found Back in Action really helpful when I sought advice about the chair I'd chosen. I also really like the information that has come with the chair as it gives advice about how to adjust to sitting in a chair that strengthens the core! I am now looking forward to using the chair and improving my sitting posture!! The chair also looks fantastic.

Thank you for your review Sarah - our lovely staff work hard to provide customers with the right product but more importantly the advice to go with it - the Actulum is a great design (one of our favourites) and will help you improve your use for many years - enjoy!
Excellent service
Excellent service - the adviser in the store was very knowledgeable and patient helping me to decide which chair would best suit my needs.

Thank you for your review - it really is worth visiting a store to try out chairs as they all have their own 'fan club' and different styles can suit different needs. Our staff love helping people to find the perfect fit and really appreciate positive reviews. The Variable is a great choice and will repay you for many years.
Excellent after sales service
I bought a Hag office chair last year from Back in Action and gave a five star review. It was an excellent experience.
Amazingly, although I should not have been surprised, the after sales service was even better. I called about a minor problem (a squeak) and within a week I had a visit from two charming men, Mark and Mark, who fitted a spare part and resolved the problem. It was an absolute pleasure.

Thank you for your review Joan - we know how it feels to order something which turns out to be wrong for us - our lovely staff work hard to make sure it doesn't happen to our customers - enjoy your shoes!
Delivery time so fast!
Can thoroughly recommend this retailer - from my phone enquiry about true colours of Backfriend (online the burgundy looks orange but is not..) to the very fast delivery time - almost within 24 hours of ordering.

Thank you for your review Lynda - the Backfriend is a very useful product which we have successfully sold for many years - I am glad we were able to help you understand the colour - it can be really frustrating and disappointing when what arrives is not what you ordered! Enjoy your Backfriend :)
Exceptional customer service in Marlow
Illy who served me was exceptional, very knowledgable about the features of the different kneeling chairs, and most patient. We were in the Back in Action shop in Marlow for about 2 hours and ended up with a chair which will suit me perfectly. The whole experience was most enjoyable.

Thank you for your lovely review Caroline - Illiana is indeed a star and will really appreciate your positive comments and that you enjoyed your visit to our Marlow store. The Variable is a brilliant design with fantastic benefits to movement and wellbeing (and looks particularly good in Dinamica) - enjoy your chair!

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review - the Human Tool is a great design and extremely useful - it should benefit (and last you) for many years!
The Mobiliser - I wish I had bought it years ago!
I have been using the Mobiliser now pretty much twice daily for 4 months. I really notice how much more mobile I feel - knots in my back and shoulder muscles that have been "old friends" are now largely gone or very much reduced.
I wish I had bought it years ago!

Highly recommended and trusted
Lovely experience. I received a call the day after regarding my order. It was to inquire about my shipping preferences - and also to clarify that the chair needed some minor assembling. I didn't realize this - and was a bit weary. They were able to ship the chair fully assembled! It was such great customer service! Highly recommended and trusted.
