We’ve used the Footrest for about a month now and we’re very impressed, on the whole.
The stitching and quality of the PU leather is exactly what we’d expect from a noblechairs product, with their usual style applied to the top and base. The style matches their chairs perfectly.
We found that we sat upright more often, leaning into the back of the chair and making full contact with our spine. The footrest, due to its soft padding, didn’t cause any discomfort on the back of the legs/feet when used for a long time.
The adjustment of 57° is great, giving you plenty of options as to how you’d like to set it up, but some height adjustment should really be included. Of course, the design of the base and stem would have to be changed fundamentally, but for £110/$120/$175 for the PU version, and approaching 40% more than that for real leather, we feel as though it’s an omission that should have been implemented; the height of the noblechairs can be adjusted by around 100mm, so the Footrest should match that.
Lastly, there’s the price. At £110 in the UK, the price is a little too steep for us. Sure, it’s a very elegant solution to the problem and it’ll suit most setups very well, but for us, we’d like to see £20-£30 shaved off that price.
If you already own a noblechairs and find yourself wishing you had somewhere to put your feet, splashing out on this Footrest won’t leave you disappointed, provided you can stomach the initial outlay.
