CUSTOM ADAPTATION PURPOSE: To provide a child with global developmental delays and low muscle tone with appropriate seating and positioning.

This enables the user to sit upright for as long as can be tolerated and then recline as needed. The chair is equipped with a tray clamped to metal slides, making it adjustable in height and tilt, and enabling it to follow the angle of the chair. Tray features include a torso cutout and tipped edges to keep items from falling off.

The base was designed to fit under the family dining table. Without the base, the chair is at child's table height, enabling the child to participate in crafts and other activities with other children. DIMENSIONS: The base is 400 millimeters high.
