Verdict. The Giroflex 353 is a Swiss swivel chair designed by Paolo Fancelli whose big idea is the Automatic Move mechanism, which self-adjusts to the user's weight with no levers. The seat has a two-zone profile that wraps the pelvis and stops you sliding forward, with the front edge slightly tilted to relieve the thighs. Its height range starts quite low, making it suitable for shorter people, an unusual strength. The backrest comes in 3D knit fabric or classic upholstery. It adds Swiss manufacturing with Cradle to Cradle certification and a Red Dot 2014. It's a solid buy for anyone who values self-adjustment and provenance over a surplus of levers.

What the community says

Giroflex is a Swiss brand with a good reputation for quality and design in the office segment, now under the Flokk group. The 353 is known for its award-winning design (Red Dot 2014) and its self-adjusting mechanism, though public end-user reviews are limited because its main channel is contract and project. The available consensus describes it as a well-built, comfortable chair, especially valued by those after a low seat.
