Enova Sparta 3 Office Chair - Light Grey / Dual-Axis Adjustable Headrest / Italian DONATI wire controlled quick adjustment chassis / Floating Buffer Cushion / Vertical Height Adjustment for Lumbar Support / ESP3-001A-HS-Lightgrey + FREE DELIVERY !

The Enova Sparta 3, model EZY-008A-1, is a light grey executive chair built to the BIFMA product standard with a 136kg seat load capacity. Grey upholstery runs across headrest, back and seat, framed by a silver decorative frame over a polished aluminium base. A retractable footrest sets it apart from a standard task chair.

The headrest adjusts on two axes, so both its height and its angle can be set. Height alone puts the pad near your head, while the angle axis turns it to meet the back of your skull at the recline you sit in. Both use the same FF-YM90-17M-56-10 grey component as the seat and back.

The Sparta 3 runs an Italian DONATI wire-controlled chassis. Wire control routes the adjustments to paddles you can reach without leaning out of the seat, so changing recline or seat position happens in one movement rather than several. It is the mechanism doing the work every time you shift position during the day.

Rather than a tension dial you set by trial and error, the Sparta 3 uses a self weight adjusted mechanism. The recline resistance responds to the weight of the person sitting in it, so a lighter user is not fighting a stiff backrest and a heavier user is not dropping straight through the recline range.

The grey lumbar support moves vertically on the backrest, so the contact point can be raised or lowered until it sits in the hollow of your lower back. Fixed lumbar panels only fit users of one particular height; a vertical slide is what lets the same chair fit a tall and a short person properly.

The seat uses a floating buffer cushion, a pad mounted to give slightly and follow your movement instead of sitting on a rigid pan. That spreads the contact area as you shift position through a long session at the desk, and stops the cushion feeling like a flat board by the end of an afternoon.

The Sparta 3 uses 6D armrests in grey with PU tops, giving six directions of adjustment across the pair. Beyond up and down they move forward and back, inward and outward, and rotate, so the pads can be lined up with a keyboard, a mouse or a controller instead of forcing your arms to the armrest position.

A grey mesh footrest is built into the chair and pulls out from under the seat. Mesh keeps the panel light and lets air through rather than trapping heat under your legs, and it slides away completely when you go back to working at the desk, so the chair still tucks in.

The chair stands on a polished aluminium base, with a silver decorative frame carrying the theme up into the backrest. Aluminium holds its shape under years of load where moulded plastic gradually flexes, and the polished finish reads as executive furniture rather than as a general-issue office chair.

Height comes from a KGS class 4 gas lift specified at 185/85/80 and finished in black. It raises and lowers the seat from a lever under the pan, which is how you set the chair so your forearms meet the desk level and your feet stay flat rather than dangling.

The Sparta 3 rolls on 60mm casters with black PU wheels. PU is softer than bare nylon, which keeps the chair quiet on laminate, tile and sealed concrete, and the 60mm diameter rolls over floor joins and cable covers without the chair snagging as you move between desk and printer.

The Sparta 3 is built to the BIFMA product standard, the testing benchmark used for office furniture, and carries a seat weight load capacity of 136kg. That rating applies to the chair as a whole, covering the frame, aluminium base and gas lift working together under daily use.

Assembled the Sparta 3 weighs 23.5kg, with a gross weight of 28kg in a carton of 810 by 500 by 680 millimetres. It is a substantial chair aimed at home offices, executive desks and anyone seated for most of the working day, so plan the route from the front door to the desk before it arrives.
