Do I weigh too much for this?

Anthros Chair Weight Capacity

Updated over a week ago

The Anthros has a weight capacity of 300 lbs.

That's not just a label. The chair is independently tested by BIFMA (the industry's safety standards organization) to meet or exceed 300 lbs for structural integrity, long-term durability, and tipping resistance.

Why our foam holds up

Our cushion foam comes from the same supply chain as wheelchair seating β€” an environment where people sit for 12+ hours a day and foam failure has real health consequences. High-density foam resists compression over time in a way standard office chair foam simply doesn't.

One thing to check: spring selection

If you're over 150 lbs, choose the Standard Spring when configuring your chair. The Light Spring is for users under 150 lbs. This affects tilt tension, not safety β€” the wrong spring won't break anything, but the chair will feel too easy to recline.
