Video Editing Chairs for Editors, Colorists & Post-Production

Color grading, timeline scrubbing and multi-monitor reviews that run long after everyone else has gone home. Editors and colorists spend more consecutive hours at a desk than almost anyone in production, leaning toward the monitors and working a keyboard, mouse or control surface for precision cuts.

Most office chairs are built for sitting upright, and that mismatch is where the low-back fatigue by hour six comes from. Stealth's patented ZenWave seat and Free-Float backrest were engineered for that forward lean — and for sitting back to review the cut.

Why editors choose Stealth

  • Forward-lean seat that supports you deep in a cut, not just when you sit back
  • Free-Float backrest that follows you from trimming to reviewing
  • Tool-free 4D arms that adjust or come off for keyboard and panel clearance
  • Two piston heights and an adjustable footring for high desks and big displays
  • 400 lb capacity, 5-year warranty, every part replaceable — ships within 48 business hours

Built for Every Seat in Post

Video Editors & Assistant Editors

Long timeline sessions in edit bays and home suites, leaned in for every trim.

Colorists

Hours at a grading panel and reference monitor, where small movements and steady posture matter.

VFX & Motion Graphics Artists

Compositing and render reviews that run late. See our animation studio chairs too.

Post Houses & Edit Suites

Edit and color rooms shared by different editors from project to project.

Built for the Edit Bay

  • Lean in to cut. The ZenWave seat pivots forward as you get close to the timeline, so your lower back keeps its natural curve.
  • Sit back to review. The Free-Float backrest stays in contact when you recline to watch a cut down. Executive versions add a larger backrest.
  • Arms your way. The 4D arms adjust in height, width and angle, and come off without tools for clearance at the desk or grading panel.
  • Height for any suite. Two piston heights and an adjustable footring suit color suites with high desks and big displays.
  • Built for daily use. Every part is in stock and replaceable, so suite chairs keep working for years.

Editing Chair FAQ

What's the best chair for long editing sessions?

One that supports you while you lean toward the monitors, not just when you sit back. Stealth's seat pivots forward with you and the backrest stays in contact as you move.

Standard or Executive for editing?

If you mostly work leaned in, the Standard backrest is ideal. If you recline often to review cuts, the Executive's larger backrest adds support.

Will the arms get in the way of my desk?

The 4D arms adjust in height, width and angle, and come off without tools.
