Does ergonomic tables and chairs help the backbone a lot ? Don't know if that $2000 is worth spending ....... Thers's no ledge or anything to hold the book so the book might slip off and it will be troublesome . So I really don't know if it's worth it . I've heard about crosscom and the other one which i can't remember at the moment ... How bout the one at Ikea might be cheaper ...

I know there is Kinder Fun and Crosscom and there is one more at Ergoworks . I went to http://www.ergoworks.com.sg and at first the tables looked cheaper but then I realized it might be more expensive . The chair has an even more unique and customized design than Kinder Fun and Crosscom . I read a blog at http://paul-chan.net/?p=101 (which is where i found out about ergoworks at the comment board ) And the feedback about Kinder fun and crosscom seems quite good ( well actually Kinder Fun has better feedback cos it's cheaper by about 2/3 of crosscom based on the blog in the link above... ) So donno how crosscom is gonna be any competition compared to Kinder Fun and I need to know what are the opening hours for Kinder Fun , Ergoworks has 2 showrooms at United square and OUB centre and the opening hours can be found at http://www.ergoworks.com.sg/contactus.htm ... So basically i need more Feedback, the opening hours for kinder fun and the cost of the ergowork products .. Tks

i went ahead an purchased the crosscom bag for my son. still not decided about the workstation. quite expensive.


do take note that their prices are going up in january due to increase in material costs. FYI.

i wonder if we can sue them should our children develop back problems in future!!! (erm.. joke hor...)

:lol:

I actually bought the kinderfun set because I find that he has outgrown from the Ikea set which we bought for him few years back, when he was about 1.


And because of the glossy nature of the table, the lights that reflected on the table was rather glaring. And his chair is so low, his 5-year-old physics just no longer fit. He had to bend his head all the way down just to look at the book. His eyesight was a concern for me when I decided to buy the kinderfun set, backbone was a lesser concern for me then.

The kinderfun that we bought for him was so much better. He literally spent his whole life there. Worked there right from morning till afternoon before he played with his blocks/soldiers.
