Refurbished Steelcase Gesture Ergonomic Office Chair - Australia

Upgrade your workspace with a refurbished Steelcase Gesture ergonomic office chair from Kate’s Furniture. Designed to support the different postures people adopt while working with computers, tablets and smartphones, the Gesture combines responsive back support, highly adjustable arms and intuitive seating controls.

Each chair is carefully inspected, cleaned and function-tested before being prepared for sale. As a refurbished office chair, it may show minor cosmetic signs from previous use, but these do not prevent the chair from performing its intended adjustments.

Available for delivery across Australia, the refurbished Steelcase Gesture is an excellent option for home offices, professional workspaces and businesses looking for premium ergonomic seating at a more accessible price.

Why Choose a Refurbished Steelcase Gesture Chair?

The Steelcase Gesture is a commercial-grade ergonomic chair originally developed after Steelcase studied more than 2,000 people across 11 countries. The research focused on how modern technology has changed the way people sit, move and interact with different devices throughout the working day.

Choosing a refurbished Steelcase Gesture allows you to access many of the same core ergonomic features found in the original model without purchasing a newly manufactured chair.

It can be a suitable choice if you want:

• A premium ergonomic office chair at a lower price than a comparable new model
• Flexible arm support for computers, tablets and smartphones
• Adjustable seat depth, height and recline controls
• Commercial-grade construction suitable for regular office use
• A more sustainable alternative to buying newly manufactured furniture

Reusing high-quality commercial furniture also helps extend the chair’s working life and reduces the number of office chairs being prematurely discarded.

Steelcase Gesture Features and Adjustments

3D LiveBack® Support

The Steelcase Gesture features a flexible backrest designed to respond as you change posture. Its 3D LiveBack system follows the shape and movement of the back while transitioning between upright and reclined sitting positions.

Instead of locking the user into one fixed posture, the backrest supports natural movement throughout the day. Individual comfort and support will still depend on correctly adjusting the chair for your body and workstation.

360-Degree Adjustable Arms

One of the most recognisable features of the Steelcase Gesture ergonomic chair is its highly adjustable arm system.

The arms can move inward to support activities such as using a tablet or smartphone, or outward to accommodate different desk layouts and working positions. Their height, width, depth and angle can also be adjusted to suit the user.

This flexibility makes the Gesture particularly relevant for people who regularly move between multiple devices.

Adjustable Seat Height and Depth

The pneumatic height control allows the chair to be positioned according to the height of your desk and feet. Ideally, your feet should rest comfortably on the floor or an appropriate footrest.

The sliding seat pan lets you adjust the seat depth. This helps users with different leg lengths find a more comfortable position while maintaining a small space between the front edge of the seat and the back of the knees.

Recline and Back-Tension Controls

The Steelcase Gesture includes controls for adjusting recline resistance and limiting the backrest at different reclining positions.

Users can choose a more upright position for focused computer work or allow greater recline for reading, phone calls and other tasks. The appropriate setting depends on personal preference, body size and the activity being performed.

Our Refurbishment and Inspection Process

A refurbished chair is different from a chair that is simply resold in its existing condition. Before a Steelcase Gesture is listed for sale by Kate’s Furniture, it is cleaned, inspected and checked for core functionality.

The process focuses on areas such as:

• Seat-height adjustment
• Seat-depth movement
• Recline and tension controls
• Armrest movement
• Backrest operation
• Casters and base stability
• General frame and upholstery condition

Parts may be serviced or replaced where necessary and available. The precise work required can vary because every refurbished chair has a different service history and starting condition.

No claim should be made that a refurbished chair is cosmetically identical to a newly manufactured product. The objective is to provide a clean, functional ergonomic chair while clearly communicating any material condition differences.

Condition of Your Refurbished Steelcase Gesture

Refurbished Steelcase Gesture chairs have previously been used in an office or commercial environment. Minor cosmetic signs may therefore remain after cleaning and preparation.

Depending on the individual chair, these may include:

• Light marks on the frame or base
• Small scuffs on plastic surfaces
• Minor variations in fabric colour or texture
• Normal signs of previous commercial use

These cosmetic variations do not necessarily affect the operation of the chair. Because refurbished stock can vary, customers who need confirmation of a particular chair’s condition should contact Kate’s Furniture before ordering. Additional photos or a condition video may be available on request.

Available colours, upholstery, frames, casters and optional features depend on current stock. Do not assume that a headrest or any other accessory is included unless it is shown in the product images or specifically stated in the selected product option.

Steelcase Gesture Dimensions and Specifications

The following measurements are based on Steelcase’s published specifications for the Gesture model:

Measurements and features can vary between different production years and configurations. Customers should confirm any critical requirements before purchasing, particularly when fitting the chair beneath a specific desk or within a limited workspace.

Refurbished vs Untested Used Steelcase Gesture

A refurbished chair has been prepared for resale through cleaning, inspection and functional testing. An untested used chair is generally sold in its existing condition without the same preparation process.

A refurbished chair may still have cosmetic wear. Refurbishment should not be interpreted as meaning the product is brand new or free from every visible mark.

Who Is the Steelcase Gesture Suitable For?

The refurbished Steelcase Gesture may suit:

• Remote and hybrid workers building a long-term home office
• Professionals who regularly use computers, tablets and smartphones
• Designers, developers and content creators who change posture frequently
• Businesses seeking commercial ergonomic chairs for their teams
• Customers who prefer refurbished furniture over newly manufactured products

Although the Gesture offers extensive adjustments, comfort remains personal. Where possible, customers are encouraged to try the chair or discuss their preferred seating position with Kate’s Furniture before purchasing.
