Grand Rapids, MI, January 31, 2023 – AMQ Solutions today launches Personality Plus, a task chair that provides comfort the entire office can get behind. The newest addition to AMQ’s value seating line introduces an innovation that seems almost too good to be true: in place of the plethora of knobs, levers, and buttons found on so many task chairs, Personality Plus utilizes a user’s body weight as the chair’s “built-in” counterbalance. Replacing the traditional manual adjustments found on most task chairs, AMQ incorporates a weight-activated spring mechanism that results in the perfect recline tension and support when a user simply leans back in the chair. One knob gives a user the ability to adjust from upright to full recline and also features a boost setting that provides an intermediate position for greater flexibility. The result is a chair designed to bring comfort, support, and movement to any body type – without added cost.

Known as the chair that offers rear-end respite and low-back love, this innovative seating line also boasts a seat pan crafted with a proprietary blend of high-density foam. Pressure mapping research was used to ensure a sit that is free from pressure points, with strategically placed air pocket cut-outs that mold around a user's backside.

When people work in a multitude of spaces, from their personal offices to shared meeting spaces to conference rooms, most don’t take the time to figure out how to adjust every chair they sit in to meet their specific comfort and productivity needs. Personality Plus eliminates this tedious fine-tuning guesswork as the chair automatically responds to each user’s body weight. Additionally, unlike other task seating at this price point, the chair’s seat back is constructed of a soft, breathable mesh with a flexible frame and no hard edges.

Personality Plus offers an abundance of appealing features. Crafted from high recycled material content, it features fully biodegradable arm caps and is designed with fewer plastics, metals, and mechanisms. Now users can get all the bells and whistles without all the knobs and levers. The chair’s manufacturing process not only prioritizes waste reduction but also boasts some of the industry’s most rigorous testing, resulting in a product that surpasses life cycle expectations. This approach ultimately diminishes the buy-and-replace cycle, leading to reduced associated costs.

From initial sit through continuous daily movement, Personality Plus offers healthy, ergonomic support. From its highly responsive patented mesh back, to its fluid, reactive 4D armrests, to weight and height accommodations beyond industry standards, every part of this chair continuously responds to the position changes users make throughout the day. And it accomplishes all of this at an incredible price point with a 10-year warranty.

“Personality Plus is a seating product that incorporates innovations never before seen in the mid or value market. It is truly unique,” said Ryan Vander Ploeg, AMQ’s Vice President of Product Development and Marketing. “The ability to offer a personalized, adaptive seating option at such an affordable price is a major breakthrough. Our commitment to extensive research and testing, listening to customer feedback, and always keeping costs and waste as low as possible is what makes a chair like Personality Plus possible.”

AMQ is driven by its commitment to bringing product features not typically available to budget-focused small to medium-sized businesses, and Personality Plus is a perfect example of this. “SMBs don’t typically have the same budgets as their larger counterparts but they still deserve high quality, long-lasting, comfortable furniture,” said Vander Ploeg. “AMQ ensures that even if businesses don’t have a large furniture budget, they are guaranteed to have access to highly functional office furnishings.”

Personality Plus is available to order now with several options available for delivery within 20 days of order entry.
