About the Steelcase Amia Chair:
The Steelcase 482 Amia office chair has been a proven workhorse in the Steelcase lineup for years. Featuring all current ergonomic adjustments and over-the-top build quality, the Steelcase 482 Amia chair is a comfortable, fully adjustable chair that offers tier-1 build quality.
Steelcase Amia Chair Features:
Much like most of the Steelcase chairs, the Amia chair has a ton of great ergonomic features and adjustments, most notably the same Optional 4D fully adjustable arms as the Steelcase V2 Leap.
We currently have chairs with height adjustable only arms, as well as chairs with optional 4D fully adjustable arms available – select the option under the “Arms” drop down above to confirm which style you’d like.
Listed below are some of the features of the Steelcase Amia:

- Lean Back Tension (how much force it takes to lean back in your chair)
- Adjustable Lumbar (Optional)
Steelcase Amia Remanufacturing Process:
Crandall Office Furniture has been the industry leader in remanufacturing office chairs since 2002. Every chair we sell is completely torn down and remanufactured from the ground up in Greenville, Michigan.
We do our absolute best to make sure every chair is as close to new as possible. The only place you may see some variation is in the plastic surfaces – we have no way to resurfacing plastic, so some minor scrapes and dings on plastic pieces are to be expected – we remove anything that has large damage from inventory and use them as parts chairs
We go through all of the working components of every chair, then put it back together with new casters, new gas cylinder, new arm pads, new fabric (always removing the old fabric, chair pads are sterilized with high temperature steam), and we stand behind each of our Amia chairs with a 12 year warranty.
With 10,000+ chairs in stock at all times, we’re ready for orders of a single chair, to thousands at a time.
Be careful of terms like “used,” “refurbished,” or “open box” without doing your research – we’ve outlined our process in detail to make sure you know what to expect. We always encourage our buyers to look into the product they are purchasing, and more importantly, the company they are choosing to do business with. Ratings, reviews, and questions are your friend!

New Seat Pad:
We’re excited to announce that we are now offering a brand new seat pad on all of our Steelcase Amia Chairs!
Our new seat pad is made of high density molded foam, identical to the Steelcase OEM seat pads (including the contoured shape of the original), except we’ve chosen to add an additional 1/2″ of thickness to our new seat cushion for additional comfort. On top of that, our new seat pad is made right here in the U.S.A. and the original foam pad is sent to our foam supplier to be recycled! Win-Win-Win!!
The result is a brand new, slightly thicker seat on every Steelcase Amia chair we sell!
- Brand New Virgin Foam Seat Pad (Never Sat In)
- +1/2″ of Additional Thickness
- High Density Molded Foam
- Contoured Shape
- Increased Comfort
- Made in the USA
Guilford of Maine's Open House line of fabric has been the gold standard for 100% Polyester woven commercial grade seating fabrics, and our go-to standard upholstery fabric since we opened our doors in 2002. Chosen for it's consistent high quality, and high durability rating of 250,000 double rubs, Open House is a great standard fabric that will last.
We're excited to be offering our new proprietary BioKnit fabric on all of our chairs! This unique knitted fabric is significantly softer than most traditional woven fabrics, is made of 100% recycled material, is bleach cleanable, biodegradable, and made in the USA, all without sacrificing durability.
NOTE: BioKnit is not Available on Gestures with Wrap Back or Headrest at this time.
BioKnit is 100% made, dyed, and knitted in Grand Rapids, Michigan! Keeping things local, just the way we like it!
Being a knitted fabric makes BioKnit softer, stretchier, more breathable, while also being made to size to reduce fabric waste significantly.
BioKnit has a Durability Rating of 250,000 Double Rubs; 16.6x the 15,000 required to be considered "Heavy Duty Commercial Grade"
BioKnit has a cleaning code of WS (Water or Solvent Based Cleaners), and is also Bleach Cleanable (9:1 Water:Bleach)
At the end of it's useful life, BioKnit can be recycled or sent to a landfill where it will safely biodegrade in as little as 1,278 days.
BioKnit is constructed of 100% Post-Consumer Recycled polyester, and can also be recycled again at the end of it's useful life.
Made using the same materials and process as our original BioKnit fabric, our 3D BioKnit fabric is a thicker, more breathable version that utilizes two different yarn colors, creating a unique 3 dimensional look to any office chair.
- Softer & More Breathable Than Standard Fabrics
- Thicker 3D Construction
- Constructed Using Two Yarn Colors for Unique 3D Look
- Rated at 150,000 Double Rubs (15,000+ is considered heavy duty commercial grade)
- Content: 100% Polyester
- 9 Color Choices Available
- Made in the USA
3D BioKnit Color Note: The front color is the prominent color, and covers more surface area than the back color. If you are trying to match the seat to the back, the front color (listed first) will match much closer than if trying to match the back color. (example: Gunmetal/Splash will match much better with a Gunmetal Seat than a Splash Seat)
NOTE: 3D BioKnit is not Available on Gestures with Wrap Back or Headrest at this time.
*Note: 3D BioKnit Fabric Pictured on V2 Leap Chair, but Available on All Chairs 🙂
We are now offering full-grain leather as a premium upholstery option. We took a great deal of time to source premium leather, which only come from Europe and New Zealand cattle, and provide a luxurious soft and smooth hand feel. Our leather is ~1mm thick, and has a Wyzenbeek Abrasion Rating of 100,000 double rubs.
We cut and sew every hide to-order, by hand. Because of this, every chair will be slightly unique. We also stitch every hide on every chair to match OEM stitching patterns.
We are also offering a limited selection of real leather with a Microfiber Suede coating. This leather is a split leather from Europe with a Microfiber Suede layer applied to it, providing an extremely unique and soft suede feel, while also providing stain resistance, UV protection, and high wear resistance. If you want a real leather with an extremely soft and durable suede-like feel, this a great option!
Texture Note: Our Micro-Suede Leather has a directionality to it - when you move your hand over the leather, it will change the look of the leather.
Ultrafabrics Brisa Vinyl has set the bar for premium grade polyurethane vinyl. The softness and hand feel of Brisa really needs to be felt to be appreciated - it is genuinely one of the softest, most comfortable materials we've ever upholstered with. What's more, it achieves this while providing one of the most breathable vinyls on the market, and maintaining an extreme Wyzenbeek Abrasion Rating of 300,000 double rubs.
For the first time ever, we are now offering a 100% Natural Wool based upholstery option. Our wool fabric has a two-tone weave that provides a very unique look. As with most natural wool products, this fabric has a more textured/course hand feel than a more traditional polyester based fabric, and is prone to a bit of natural pilling over time.

65mm (2.5 inch) vs. 75mm (3 inch) Casters:
65mm (2.5 inch) casters are the standard OEM size caster. Due to their size, they work great on low-pile or dense carpets, and operate best with loads of 200lbs or less. Above that weight you will begin to experience a decline in rolling smoothness.
vs.
The larger 75mm (3 inch) casters are oversized casters. Due to their size, the 75mm caster offers a very fluid rolling experience (especially hard floor 75mm casters on a hard surface). These casters also excel in deep carpets, and uneven or rough surfaces. 75mm casters are also great for larger / big and tall users, as they will roll much more smoothly under stress, and also give you an additional bit of height to your chair.
Roller Blade Casters:
Roller blade style casters are most similar to the hard floor style casters we discussed above, and are the larger 75mm size. Due to their construction, they actually give a bit more height to your chair than our 75mm casters. They have a soft treat that is ideal for harder surfaces, but also rolls well on carpet. These roller blade style casters improve rolling smoothness beyond the twin wheel casters, will help protect your floor, and will significantly decrease rolling noise on hard surfaces. These casters also have the advantage of looking much more modern, and stylish than a standard caster.
Roller Blade Casters are Best For:
- The Smoothest Rolling Experience
- Lowest Amount of Rolling Noise
- Hard Surfaces
- Larger / Heavier Individuals
- Deep Carpet Floors
- Uneven or Rough Surfaces
- Those Needing Extra Height in their Chair (slightly more than 75mm twin-wheel)
- Those Looking for a More Modern Look
Soft Floor (Carpet) vs Hard Floor Casters:
Soft floor casters are constructed of a hard plastic and are designed to work best on carpeted floors. Soft floor casters are the default standard caster that most chairs come with, and are much more common to come across.
vs.
Hard floor casters are constructed of hard plastic, but also have a soft rubber or polyurethane coating on the outside of the wheels. Because the floor itself is hard, a soft coating on the caster provides additional grip (similar to the tread on a tire) and rolling smoothness needed for your chair to roll properly.
This soft coating also doubles as a protective material that helps defend your flooring from dings and scratches. When hard plastic carpet casters are used on hard floors with no protection, it’s not uncommon for there to be wear marks, scratches, and damage to the floor itself.
In addition to protecting your floor, you will also notice a significant decrease in rolling noise on hard surfaces when using hard floor casters.
There is also a safety aspect to this soft coating, as soft floor casters tend to slide a bit unpredictably on hard surfaces, and can easily roll further than expected. This can cause issues when sitting down in, or getting up from your office chair.
Ideal For Flooring Types:
- Wood / Hardwood Floors
- Concrete
- Laminate
- Epoxy
- Tile
- Chair Floor Mats

Great chair with the extra foam and new fabric. Much better than the Leap v2 that I returned because common seat pan comfort issue. Only issue with the Amia is I wish it had multiple locking recline positions like the Leap.
Michael P. (verified owner) –
Most comfortable desk chair I have ever owned. The assembly instructions were easy to follow and the putting it together was a breeze.

Best $500 I’ve ever spent. Had an extended gaming session for 11 hours and my back and butt were totally comfy. Thank you Crandall!

This is my first time shopping with Crandall, and the chair I received is great. The chair feels like new with a great fabric color to complement the platinum frame. The fabrics they use for the seating and backing all feel great and support my back well. I would recommend the company to anyone who needs a new chair based off my experience.
