I wish I had purchased this earlier. Instead, I tried using a cheaper “universal” pneumatic cylinder that I purchased from Amazon. That ended up being a waste of money and time because it didn’t work with my Steelcase Leap v1. Thankfully, the item from Crandall solved my sinking chair issue and now I can use my chair.

I can’t speak highly enough of David and his staff at Crandall Office Furniture, Inc. I bought a replacement cylinder for my Leap V1 chair and had some initial difficulty with it holding position. David and his team immediately responded with advice and videos on how the properly adjust the chair mechanism to work correctly. They also offered to immediately send a replacement cylinder if the adjustment didn’t solve the problem. My favorite chair now works perfectly thanks to Crandall Office Furniture. They provide quality parts, competetive pricing, fast delivery, great online information and most importantly …. SERVICE. You will be hard pressed to find that combination at any other supplier. They have my heartfelt thanks.
