Designed and handmade in Quebec, IKUKO softens our practice, preserving freedom of movement and the benefits of a really good ergonomic chair. Used as an alternative to a standardized cross-legged position, our Seiza stool IKUKO may also be enjoyed in activities such as eating at a low table, working, reading, playing with kids, etc.

Best practice using the bench:
Make sure to use the bench on a flat surface and seat both legs on the floor. Do not create a cantilever putting all you weight on one leg, falling on one side or put to much pressure on one leg can result on braking the leg or it's wood attachment. Always best to adjust yourself if needed by releasing pressure on the seat then adjust it with your hand. Do not stay seated on the bench sliding right-left-left-right to adjust yourself, this may result on braking a leg or its attachment.
Our bench is made for seating in kneeling position, do not seat cross-legged or it may result on braking a leg or its attachment.
