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.

    Because it’s so cute

  2. Kylie on December 10, 2014 at 7:43 am

    I sit at a desk 9 hours a day (4 days a week) and have lots of back pain. This would really help! I’m very intrigued.

  3. Julie on December 10, 2014 at 7:45 am

    I’m a photographer, so editing and working a 40 hour a week office job so my days consist of sitting at a computer over 10 hours a day. The concept of this chair is wonderful!

  4. Mallory Driggers on December 10, 2014 at 7:46 am

    oooooohhhh! I definitely need this chair! I work full-time and am a doctoral student which means I spend all of my time sitting. This would be a great change! Thinking about my posture right now and someone needs to get that back straight!

    I would LOVE this for my office! I have tried sitting on a stability ball while at my desk and I just couldn’t get comfortable. I am a huge sloucher when I sit in my normal desk chair, so this would be such an amazing replacement!

  7. Lindsey on December 10, 2014 at 7:49 am

    That chair would surely keep me awake when I’m working!

  8. Katie @ Peace Love & Oats on December 10, 2014 at 7:49 am

    I would LOVE this for my office – I sit so much!

  9. Katie @ Peace Love & Oats on December 10, 2014 at 7:50 am

    I tweeted!

  10. Jaleh on December 10, 2014 at 7:53 am

    Today I’ve been smiling because I woke up early, made some green tea, and sat on the couch to study. Within a few minutes my sweet dog Sophie came to cuddle next to me. ๐Ÿ™‚

  11. Nikki S on December 10, 2014 at 7:53 am

    My student employees showed up on time and in work mode. Yay for productive assistance at work today!

  12. Betsy on December 10, 2014 at 7:55 am

    I’d give this chair to my husband. He works from home and his office chair is a little sad ๐Ÿ™

  13. Nicole on December 10, 2014 at 7:55 am

    The Swopper sounds amazing! I could use a replacement for my horrible desk chair.

  14. Catherine P.S. on December 10, 2014 at 7:55 am

    This chair would be awesome for our home office! ๐Ÿ™‚

  15. Melissa Boyle on December 10, 2014 at 7:56 am

    Today I am happy because all of my coworkers are in a great mood! ๐Ÿ™‚

  16. terri d. on December 10, 2014 at 7:56 am

    This chair seems awesome! I spend so much time sitting and I worry about how it’s impacting my body since I don’t have great posture. This seems like a great solution!

  17. Chloe D on December 10, 2014 at 7:56 am

    I would love to win! I am a CPA and work insane hours, this chair would improve the quality of my life 10x!

    Love your site!

  20. Sara Butler on December 10, 2014 at 7:58 am

    This chair would be so great! I spend 11+ hours a day sitting at the computer and I know that it is killing my posture!

  21. Sarah on December 10, 2014 at 7:59 am

    I have never heard of that chair before, but it looks awesome!

  22. Christine Y on December 10, 2014 at 7:59 am

    I’m an attorney and sit in my office for long periods of time each and every day. I would love to win the swopper chair — I don’t have great posture and I’ve noticed that by the end of the day my back is aching ๐Ÿ™

  23. Laura on December 10, 2014 at 7:59 am

    Would love this chair to help improve my posture while at my desk.

  24. Cassie S on December 10, 2014 at 8:00 am

    This chair would be the perfect addition to our office. Love that the design is built around the concept that life is movement. Great giveaway!

  25. Claire on December 10, 2014 at 8:05 am

    Oh my gosh this chair looks like a life saver. Ever since I started my desk job, I feel so unhealthy. Sitting all day drives me crazy. Thanks so much for the awesome giveaway.

  26. Sara on December 10, 2014 at 8:05 am

    Meeting my husband for lunch. That makes me smile.

  27. Dee on December 10, 2014 at 8:05 am

    I need a chair that will be ergonomically comfort for my office.

  28. Emmy on December 10, 2014 at 8:06 am

    I would love to win one of these for my office! Sometimes I feel like all I do is sit and it would be nice to have some benefits while doing so!

  29. Stephanie on December 10, 2014 at 8:08 am

    I think that chair would be awesome!

  30. Lynsi on December 10, 2014 at 8:08 am

    I would love to get this for my husband, I think he would use this the most since he has a desk job!

  31. Sara Baker on December 10, 2014 at 8:08 am

    I would love to win one of these for my office. I’m working on getting up and moving around more, but this looks like a great tool to add to my arsenal when I have to be sitting!

  32. Julie on December 10, 2014 at 8:09 am

    This chair looks amazing!
    The bit about decreased oxygen flow leading to sleepiness hits fairly close to home today…

  33. Liz on December 10, 2014 at 8:10 am

    Something that is making me smile today is that after a year I am able to run again with minimal pain ๐Ÿ™‚

  34. Kathryn on December 10, 2014 at 8:11 am

    It’s making me smile today that today is technically my “Thursday” and I only have 6 more days of work until a long holiday break!

  35. Brittany on December 10, 2014 at 8:12 am

    This would be perfect for work!!

  36. Laura on December 10, 2014 at 8:12 am

    Wow what a great chair! I conduct ergonomic evaluations at work and have recommended all sorts of chairs, but have never seen anything like that! My chair is horrible, but it’s not in my budget to replace it (which is crazy, considering I tell other people to!). Something that makes me smile at work today – the internet was out for 2 hours, so I got to sit and drink coffee all morning!

  37. Mandy on December 10, 2014 at 8:13 am

    I’m a total sloucher! I work at a desk 9 – 11 hours a day, and even though I regularly exercise, I notice my back gets stiff and sore. I would love to try this chair!!

  38. Beth on December 10, 2014 at 8:16 am

    My project this month is to convert a little nook in our basement into my office. This chair would be perfect… Small and cute!

  39. Kristi S on December 10, 2014 at 8:16 am

    What a great chair! I’d love to have one for my office!

  40. Natalie on December 10, 2014 at 8:16 am

    Because I sit at work about 10 hours a day, this would be great!

  41. Tori on December 10, 2014 at 8:17 am

    That chair would make crafting more fun!

  42. Tori on December 10, 2014 at 8:17 am
  43. Kristi S on December 10, 2014 at 8:18 am
  44. Elizabeth on December 10, 2014 at 8:18 am

    I’m always slumping in my chair at work, this would be a fabulous addition to my desk!

  45. Megan on December 10, 2014 at 8:19 am

    I would love to win this chair! I’ve been looking for a new office chair for years!!

  46. Dyanna on December 10, 2014 at 8:19 am

    That chair looks amazing! I sit most of the day at work (though am currently begging for a stand up desk) and I would love a healthier chair option. I’m happy at work today because I found out I’m going to be able to go work out of our Tampa office in March (I live in NH and it’s FREEZING).

  47. Kandice Harris on December 10, 2014 at 8:19 am

    Sweet chairfor tight spaces. This would look awesome in my homeschool room and my home office!

  48. Kristi S on December 10, 2014 at 8:19 am
  49. Karen Shannon on December 10, 2014 at 8:20 am

    Would love to work on my posture.
