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 win one of these chairs. I have fibromyalgia and work in an office all day so my back is always killing me at the end of the day.

  2. Kara on December 10, 2014 at 12:24 pm

    Great giveaway! I’d be the envy of all my students ha!

  3. Kristi D on December 10, 2014 at 12:26 pm

    WOW this chair looks amazing. I just joined the wellness initiative at my company and would love to get this out in front of my desk at the office!

  4. Krissy on December 10, 2014 at 12:27 pm

    When I sit at my desk I borrow a kitchen chair, it would be nice to have a permenant chair.

  5. Kerry on December 10, 2014 at 12:28 pm

    I would love this chair for my father! He sits at a desk all day and it is affecting his posture.

      Christmas tree failed attempt.

  7. Elissa on December 10, 2014 at 12:31 pm

    Love the chair!! It could replace the dining chair we’re currently using! And much more stylish than using a stability ball – we have a small desk in a corner of our living room, so we can work and watch the kiddo!

  8. cynthiasolc on December 10, 2014 at 12:35 pm

    I would love to see if it helps with my lower back pain.

  9. Jackie on December 10, 2014 at 12:36 pm

    That looks fun I would love it!

  10. Alexis on December 10, 2014 at 12:36 pm

    What a great chair! My dad is a chiropractor so I know he’d appreciate me being proactive about my shoddy posture ๐Ÿ™‚

    The thing I love most on my desk is one of those digital picture frames, which is stocked with pictures from my wedding day last year. Even when my day is going entirely off-kilter, it’s nice to have an engaging visual reminder of a time that was so incredible.

  11. Ariel on December 10, 2014 at 12:40 pm

    As I was reading this I found myself slouched and bent over at my desk…would die for one of these chairs to keep me moving in my seat a little more!

    I’ve been looking for a new desk chair, I can’t seem to find one that I love. Plus I love that it doesn’t take over your room, but slides neatly beneath the desk.

  14. Sara on December 10, 2014 at 12:43 pm
  15. Tarah on December 10, 2014 at 12:44 pm

    I’d love this for my office, I sit for 8+ hours a day at work & worry all the time about the effects it’s having on my body!

  16. Melissa on December 10, 2014 at 12:44 pm

    I spend so much time studying at my desk, I would love to win this chair!

  17. Tarah on December 10, 2014 at 12:45 pm
  18. Charlotte on December 10, 2014 at 12:45 pm

    The chair is such a cool concept! I really would love a new desk chair!

  19. Sara on December 10, 2014 at 12:45 pm
  20. Laura on December 10, 2014 at 12:46 pm

    I have terrible posture, so this would be perfect for work!

  21. May on December 10, 2014 at 12:49 pm

    I would love to win this for my husband! He is always complaining his chair is so uncomfortable and sometimes just sits on a ball for his back. I think this would be a perfect chair for him!

  22. Nikki on December 10, 2014 at 12:52 pm
  23. Julia @ LordStillLovesMe on December 10, 2014 at 12:55 pm

    This chair would go nicely in my dorm room!

  24. Amanda S. on December 10, 2014 at 12:58 pm

    My little errand-running buddy was cracking me up all morning (he’s my 3 year-old son). I wish he could just stay this age forever because he says and does some of the funniest things. He just told his older sister (who asked if she could play the computer game after him), “No! And no means no!” Love it!!

  25. Amanda S. on December 10, 2014 at 1:01 pm
  26. Amy on December 10, 2014 at 1:04 pm

    What a cool chair! I’d love to have one in my classroom.

  27. Natalie on December 10, 2014 at 1:10 pm

    I would love to win this chair and replace the chair in my office! I spend about 8 hours a day in my office chair, so it would be really nice to get a little core workout in!

  28. Erika on December 10, 2014 at 1:11 pm

    I would love this! At home we have don’t have good furniture (but they were very economical!). It would be great to have something that feels nice and helps the body!

  29. Becca on December 10, 2014 at 1:11 pm

    My friend Ellen is making me smile today, but I also would LOVE a new chair for my office ๐Ÿ™‚

  30. Robyn on December 10, 2014 at 1:12 pm

    I already have a Swopper and can’t say enough how much I love it! I bought mine locally at Ergo Depot, but I know a few co-workers who would enjoy it for sure!

  31. nicki on December 10, 2014 at 1:12 pm

    I would love this because it might help my back after sitting all day for work!

  32. Amanda S. on December 10, 2014 at 1:12 pm

  34. Rebecca on December 10, 2014 at 1:14 pm

    I’m such a slouch at work so this would be fantastic to bring in for the new year!:)

  35. Liz Marchese on December 10, 2014 at 1:17 pm

    I spend so much time working at a desk and always think about my posture so this would be great to have!

  36. Margo d on December 10, 2014 at 1:18 pm

    I have awful posture! This would be wonderful for work!!

  37. masala girl on December 10, 2014 at 1:18 pm

    ohmygosh, this would be PERFECTat school. currently am using core ball, like I did at home, but this would be better ๐Ÿ™‚

  38. Megan B. on December 10, 2014 at 1:27 pm

    Oh my goodness! This would be awesome! I have a research and writing job, so I sit ALL DAY! Except today, when I got to spend an hour or so practicing with some work friends for our work holiday party skit . . . total ridiculousness (and Disney parodies!).

  39. Michelle on December 10, 2014 at 1:27 pm

    I would love to try this chair!

  40. court on December 10, 2014 at 1:31 pm

    I would love to have a chair like this to use at work!

  41. Kacie on December 10, 2014 at 1:33 pm

    I would love to have this chair for my office in my new house.

  42. ashley on December 10, 2014 at 1:37 pm

    i’m so happy my family is all home together after 4 months

  43. Mary Jane on December 10, 2014 at 1:40 pm

    I have gone back to school for a career change and would like to win this chair to help me with my hours of studying at night!

  45. Shana on December 10, 2014 at 1:50 pm

    Just reading about this chair made me sit up straighter in my boring old office chair! My body is already complaining after an hour of Zumba and 30 minutes of fat-burning Pilates, but good posture is more important!

  46. Genna on December 10, 2014 at 1:54 pm

    I have horrible posture and sit in an office, at my desk 8 hours a day! Think I need this! ๐Ÿ™‚
