Favorite things giveaway: Swopper

Hi friends! Howโ€™s the morning going? Hope youโ€™re having a great day so far. 

I am so, so excited for todayโ€™s giveaway. I use this every day, and am actually using it while writing this post: my Swopper chair!!

Swopper  1 of 1

(There are furniture moving disk thingies โ€”scientific termโ€” attached on the bottom to protect the floors.)

Not only is this chair extremely sleek and comfy, but it has hidden benefits. The beauty of this chair is that it allows for natural spinal movement: up and down, forward and back, and from side to side. If youโ€™ll notice, in most desk chairs, youโ€™re stuck in a stationary position. This can decrease circulation (as youโ€™re not moving any muscles while you sit) and from that, decrease oxygen to the brain which can make us sleepy and not perform to optimum levels. The beauty of the Swopper chair is that it allows gentle movement in all planes, increases circulation, increases energy, and promotes improved posture. This is a huge one for me because I have horrible posture. When Iโ€™m in this chair, I feel comfortable, but am less likely to slouch.

Weโ€™ve just started to transition this little hallway nook into my office area, and the Swopper chair is my favorite piece.

    I would love to try this at my office! My posture needs some help.

  3. Angelica on December 10, 2014 at 10:10 am

    Ahh I just moved into my first “grown up” apartment (aka no roommates) and have a desk but no chair ๐Ÿ™ I would love to have this for my tiny studio!

  4. kirsten on December 10, 2014 at 10:10 am

    I would love to win this!!

  5. Alexa on December 10, 2014 at 10:10 am

    i would LOVE to win this chair. i have nothing to post about things i love in my office, as everything it seems is against me. temp is freezing, staring at a computer makes my eyes sore are vision blurry, and sitting all day makes me fear that i’ll die from the sitting disease! this chair looks amazing ๐Ÿ™‚

    I would love this chair! As a graduate student I am always on my computer writing papers, and I also have terrible posture. One thing making me smile today is that finals are almost over. Well, it’s also making me grimace because I have a lot of writing left to do. Haha!

    i’d love to win this for my husband who has lower back pain!

  9. Emily on December 10, 2014 at 10:14 am

    The favorite thing in my office is the fat cat sprawled across my desk.

  10. Tamara on December 10, 2014 at 10:18 am

    This chair wouldn’t necessarily be for me. My fiancรฉ and I both got done with undergraduate education and are now just making some money before we attend teacher certification (for me) and medical school ( for my fiancรฉ). My fiancรฉ works for Swedish hospital as a patient service representative and has to sit for long days every day. He comes home every night in such pain and seeing this chair it’d be perfect for him!!!! Unfortunately we are on such a tight budget it would be unaffordable. I know this would make his life so much better though ๐Ÿ™‚

  11. Andrea B on December 10, 2014 at 10:18 am

    My day job involves a lot of sitting so this chair would be an awesome addition to my office space!!

    The best part of my day is our daily morning vacation countdown – 8 1/2 workdays to go until 2 weeks off! woohoo!

  12. Rachel on December 10, 2014 at 10:18 am

    This chair looks awesome! I would LOVE to put it in my office ๐Ÿ™‚

  13. Shelly on December 10, 2014 at 10:19 am

    my back needs this chair!

  14. Julie on December 10, 2014 at 10:19 am

    What a great giveaway! Thx!

    I would love to win a swopper chair! I’m desperately in need of a better office chair!

  17. beckie on December 10, 2014 at 10:20 am

    That would be fabulous in our computer area! We are currently using a dining room chair which is not the right height!

  18. Jessica on December 10, 2014 at 10:20 am

    I work from home and would love this chair for my office! My posture is the worst in my current chair!

  19. Jerilynne on December 10, 2014 at 10:22 am

    I would love to win this because my current office chair is so uncomfortable!!

  20. Bethany H on December 10, 2014 at 10:23 am

    I’ve never heard of this chair before…pretty cool!

  21. Bethany H on December 10, 2014 at 10:24 am
  22. Sara on December 10, 2014 at 10:25 am

    My husband made me smile today…he brought me coffee in bed while I snuggled our two munchkins ๐Ÿ™‚ It was a great morning!

  23. Bethany H on December 10, 2014 at 10:25 am
  24. Cathy on December 10, 2014 at 10:26 am

    that chair looks great. I have terrible posture. I think my pilates teacher would say that i need to buy one for home and one for my desk in the office! That plus i could use more oxygen flow to the brain ๐Ÿ™‚

  25. Chaitali Pattanayak on December 10, 2014 at 10:28 am

    I work from home .. and would love this … considering sometimes I sit on couch and you can imagine what that does to my posture

  26. Missy on December 10, 2014 at 10:29 am

    I would love this for my classroom!!

  27. Tracy on December 10, 2014 at 10:32 am

    Awesome giveaway! I’d love to have a “better for me” new office chair!!

  28. Tracy on December 10, 2014 at 10:33 am

  30. Kara on December 10, 2014 at 10:36 am

    The chair in my home office is a crappy secondhand one, so I would be thrilled to win a Swopper chair!

  31. Rachelle on December 10, 2014 at 10:37 am

    I would love to win this chair. I work in the office all day but am soon becoming a full time Personal Trainer and Fitness Instructor. I plan my classes at home (usually on a couch or uncomfortable kitchen chair) so this chair would be awesome to have at home!

  32. Megan on December 10, 2014 at 10:37 am

    I LOVE anything that makes working at a computer all day long more comfortable!

  33. Anna on December 10, 2014 at 10:38 am

    My husband works from home in a home office and he needs something to switch it up once in a while! This chair would be great for him!

  34. Jen Cumming on December 10, 2014 at 10:39 am

    Would love this for my long days in an office desk job!

  35. Erin on December 10, 2014 at 10:40 am

    I have horrible posture, I bet this chair would help a ton!

  36. tiffany on December 10, 2014 at 10:40 am
  37. Karen on December 10, 2014 at 10:42 am

    I need a new chair for work and this one looks like it would be a perfect fit for work days spent at the computer!

  38. Jill on December 10, 2014 at 10:44 am

    I have back issues and think this could help. would love to win!

  39. Vivian on December 10, 2014 at 10:44 am

    I don’t have a desk chair so this would be awesome!

  40. Amanda Bee on December 10, 2014 at 10:45 am

    I’m transitioning to a new job, and I’d love to try this chair to make long days of sitting less difficult.

  41. Ashley Bible on December 10, 2014 at 10:45 am

    I’m a high school teacher and would love a better chair to use during my planning! I rarely sit during classes, but during my planning is when I need the most energy, so a nice chair would be awesome!

  42. tiffany on December 10, 2014 at 10:45 am

    Would LOVE to win! I am very tall for a lady (6’2”) and have a terrible time sitting/working at a desk because it seems to be a constant struggle to accommodate taller individuals with generic office equipment (desks aren’t high enough, chairs aren’t high enough in the back or the arm rests hit the desk, etc); this chair would be amazing because it would force me to correct my posture all day long and bc it lacks arm rests, would be one more thing that actually supports a healthy desk environment. Fingers crossed!

  43. Ella on December 10, 2014 at 10:45 am
  44. Nicole on December 10, 2014 at 10:45 am

    It’s nearing tax season where I sit for up to 12-14 hours a day so this would be amazing!!! I would love to have one. The snow right now is making me smile-only because I’m not out driving in it

  45. quinn on December 10, 2014 at 10:46 am

    Oh my gosh! My body would love me if I had this chair at my desk, how neat!

  46. Ashley Bible on December 10, 2014 at 10:47 am
  47. K Brady on December 10, 2014 at 10:49 am

    I actually have a ball chair I’ve taken with me to three different jobs/offices now, but it could really use an update/upgrade, and the Swopper chair looks like it may be a great option!

  48. Erika on December 10, 2014 at 10:49 am

    Ahh I have horrible posture, that chair looks amazing!

  49. britt on December 10, 2014 at 10:49 am

    I love my sit stand desk, but my chair is awful for sitting

  50. jaclyn on December 10, 2014 at 10:50 am

    this is awesome!!!!!!! i need a desk chair in my office (right now I just kneel – it’s bad!) and would LOVE to use this!!!!
