Features of the Kindseat Meditation Bench:
- Our Kindseat is fully adjustable, meaning it’s very flexible and inclusive, suiting all body shapes, sizes and types!
- The Kindseat is very reliable and strong:
- the legs can’t collapse since there are no screws or hinges to move unintentionally
- Our bench has been tested up to 20 stone in weight, making it very strong
- Because the legs are independent from the seat, they follow the surface they rest on. This means the bench can sit on thick mats or our Zabuton cushion and uneven ground
- The materials and products used are ethically sourced, produced and shipped to you
- The bench is made of sustainable Birchwood Ply from Finland
- Our Kindseat cushion is made of durable water resistant materials, with a non slip base, meaning you will ever slide off the bench when resting on it
- The straps holding the legs to the seat are wide and stable, with easy-use clips to make assembly pain free.
AN INTRODUCTION TO KINDSEAT
This short video describes and demonstrates the characteristics of the Kindseat and all their benefits.
WHAT YOU CAN USE THE KINDSEAT BENCH FOR:
The Kindseat was designed for the purpose of sustained, pain free meditation practices. You can comfortably sit in both a cross-legged and easy seat position on our bench, if you wish to discover more ways to sit in your Kindseat, please read our Meditation and Yoga poses article.
However, the limits of the Kindseat meditation bench don’t stop there; the bench ranges in height from 0.75cm to 27cm, meaning it doubles as a comfortable low regular seat. This is perfect for sitting around low tables and taking to events and gatherings where you will be sitting for a long duration of time.
The Kindseat bench is also perfect for travel, weighing only 1.1kg transporting it in its very own carry case is effortless. Taking on holidays and retreats, to picnics or camping, the options are endless!
What is the difference between the Kindseat Original and the Kindseat Plus?
- The Kindseat plus is even stronger than our Kindseat original to ensure greater support and use at greater heights. In order to do this, the Kindseat Plus is 1.5inches thick at the points where the two legs go through the seat
- The seat itself is both deeper and wider, meaning more support for your pelvis and more room for your hips
- The cushion is both thicker and softer, making it more comfortable!
Despite its larger size, the Kindseat Meditation bench Plus is still very portable, assembling and disassembling in the same style as the original bench. Whilst it is heavier, it weighs only 2.8kg making it easy to transport whilst also being more comfortable thanks to its larger size and thicker cushion.

Adjustability:
The Kindseat meditation bench is that it’s fully adjustable in both height and tilt. Because we are all built differently, we need our meditation bench to be at different heights to support our spine and at different tilts to support our pelvis.
The adjustments don’t have to be drastic, even little changes of tilt can hugely improve your posture and comfort levels. The design facilitates for everyone, and there is no risk of tipping backwards off the bench thanks to the engineering of the bench.

There is absolutely nothing I would ever use for sitting meditation except the Kindseat (I bought the Kindseat Plus as I’m a male over 6ft tall). It’s unbelievably comfortable and I forget I’m sitting on anything at all. The automatic adjustable angle works with my body perfectly to open my hips, so I can breathe into my diaphragm more fully. It’s absolutely perfect. The build quality is so good I can see it lasting many years. There’s replacements straps and cushion on the website if anything wears out too. Sublime quality and design. Thank you so much for ending my search for the best sitting meditation aid.
