WANT TO BUY AMERICAN MADE

Every Vyper chair is designed, welded, powder-coated, and assembled in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Built here, by Americans, on American soil. When you buy an Elevated Steel Max, you're paying American workers, not subsidizing factories overseas. That matters to a lot of our customers. It matters to us too.

HAVE A WORKBENCH THAT'S TALLER THAN STANDARD

If you've welded your bench legs higher, built a fab table at counter height, set up a woodworking bench tall enough to save your back, or just always work at a standing-height setup, your shop chair was probably designed for a different bench than yours. The Elevated Steel Max sits where you work. Lumbar-support backrest, 3.5-inch foam, smooth glide so you're rolling between sections of a panel or stations on a bench instead of pushing yourself.

ARE TIRED OF STANDING ALL DAY ON SORE FEET

Tired feet, sore back, knees that start barking by 3pm. You wanted to sit, but a regular shop chair was too short, and the only seating that matched your bench height was a rickety stool with no back support. The Elevated Steel Max sits at the right height with the lumbar support and stability you actually need to work a full shift sitting down.

RUN A SHOP WHERE EVERY MINUTE MATTERS

If your team is welding, fabricating, woodworking, or running CNCs, you know what standing on tired feet does to productivity. Slower work, more breaks, sore backs the next day, and fewer jobs in the schedule. The Elevated Steel Max lets your guys sit through the work without losing height or stability. 400 lb capacity, anti-tip base, hand-welded in Wisconsin. The chair that keeps your shift on schedule.

Proudly American Made

Designed, manufactured, and packaged in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Every chair, every cart, every creeper.

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 3012 reviews.

The quality of the chair is great. My basement floor is smooth, but not perfectly flat, with minor imperfections. I notice when I roll across the floor the bottom carriage spins below me franticly which will push me directions id rather not go. This also creates an inconvenience when I am rolled up to a bench as when I try to fine tune my position it always want to roll back to where "it" wants to go , not where I want to be.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX

Was a little hesitant because of the price, but its just as high quality as advertised.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Love my Vyper chair! Sits high enough to work at my toolbox and low enough to work on my truck! And it’s very comfortable!

FORD® OVAL - FORD BLUE (ELEVATED)

Customer photo review of FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

Well packed, arrived undamaged. Lots of parts and bolts!! Took awhile to assemble and reassemble. Recommend watching the appropriate assembly video several times. It is very freewheeling and comfortable . I like everything but the price!

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

Biggest problem is there should have been a video assembling the Freedom chair. For a girl assembling by herself, it would have been a bigggg game changer if the parts bags which are confusing if you would also put the number on it also that reflects in the assembly book. Having the item numbered would have been a faster to assemble. Really would appreciate you considering this be done on all parts bags. Love my chair but it was confusing for a girl.

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

I had one of the shorter chairs which is great but I some leg issues and it was painful to stand up from it. I got the taller one which has the same greatness but easier for me to sit down and stand up. My wife is happy as she got the shorter one. It is the right size as she is 5 ft tall, so it all worked out. I ordered easy lift kit for the taller chair which is a big win, and yes I will get one for the other seat as well.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

The chair is very well built and rolls over all the cracks in the floor without catching.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

I was skeptical about ordering a shop stool this expensive, but it is absolutely worth it. Very comfortable and well built. The large casters make moving around the shop feel safer than anything I’ve used before, and the stool is just flat out comfortable to sit on. I’m so glad that I broke down and ordered this for myself. Now I’m trying to justify the cost for another one to use when I’m working in the basement.

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

A very high quality product. I look forward to years of use out of my new chair. The assembly video was great, straight forward and easy to follow making assembly relatively fast. There were no issues with fitment, paint is immaculate; a super product.

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

I thought that my WIZARD edition looked amazing. But the FREDOM edition is next level!

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

Customer photo review of FORD® OVAL - FORD BLUE (ELEVATED)

This chair is built ford tough. Finally found one to match my box. Been waiting on something and glad I’ve waited this long for one.

FORD® OVAL - FORD BLUE (ELEVATED)

Customer photo review of FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

Very solid build on the seat. Easy to roll around and can be used in multiple different types of cases. Would recommend for a shop or office!

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

I was very pleased with how easy it was to build my vyper chair was. I wish it took a little less time to get one but it was also a special edition one so I understand.

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

Love the chair. Wuality is definately top rate. Only critique i have is in the assembly guide is on step 1 you give guidance on the correct bolts with a 1:1 scale. In my opinion going further if you did that for all the bolts I think it could be better. Just my opinion. Again love the chair and thanks.

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

I like the quality of materials used, that the chair is made in the USA and the modern design. Definitely worth the money.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX

The freedom edition chair was definitely worth the wait it's absolutely beautiful from the color down to the 250 badge/emblem the craftsmanship is top of the line im a very detail oriented person so i don't throw that out there alot but i have to say it's definitely a nice piece of work. Aside from the fact that it looks fantastic its extremely functional i am a disabled combat veteran and this chair has made my life much easier. Im able to roll around my shop now with little effort my lower body injuries has made it difficult in the past but this chair rolls so easy and smooth its a huge improvement. Thank you for a great product. My next purchase is a your loaded work cart in blue can't wait to get one. Thanks again for your quality craftsmanship.

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

Love this chair, works great with my shop bench. Very comfortable and well built. Very easy to assemble and a quality product.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX

My new Vyper chair makes creating my stained glass projects so much more enjoyable. No more sore back, no jumping from chair to chair as I work on different stages of my projects, I just safely and efficiently roll from one area to another. It is extremely comfortable and I dont worry at all about tipping. ❤️ it!!

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Fantastic product, this is my third Vyper chair and every one of them was a great decision. Highly recommend! Thanks, Vyper.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

I've been wanting one of these chairs for a while now. I finally bought one and it does NOT disappoint. smooth action, comfortable and stable. I love it! And since I'm a Mustang guy, I especially love it. I just wish you made an office chair style seat option. I would have added that to my order. But he seat it has is still very comfortable. Thank you. ps. your customer service is great as well!

FORD MUSTANG® - GRABBER BLUE (ELEVATED)

The Vyper shop chair is definitely a top quality product. The welds on the footrest would pass aviation standards, very nicely done. All the parts fit flawlessly. The casters are excellent as well. They’re heavy duty and roll very easy. The chair is smooth and looks to easily last a lifetime even in a shop environment. Yes, it’s expensive. No doubt. But you get what you pay for.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Customer photo review of ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Already had the regular robust EZ Lift MAX. This time I got the same chair in elevated EZ lift MAX. I use my first chair while waxing t sides of lower parts of the car also shining tires and wheels. They sit good and roll easier then any other chair.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Purchased for my dad as a gift, kind of expensive but definitely worth it. Vyper Industrial is doing it right!! I Love that it’s made in the USA!!

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

The chair is noticeably better quality than any similar-usage chairs I saw on the sales floors of hardware stores. I am also swayed to purchase an item like Vyper when I see that it’s made in America. My husband was delighted when he got it for an early Christmas present!

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Very well constructed and easy to assemble

ELEVATED STEEL MAX

Customer photo review of FORD MUSTANG® - RACE RED (ELEVATED)

Awesome shop chair. Heavy duty, comfortable, relatively easy assembly, and so pretty to look at. It’s going to outlast me for sure. Gonna have to put in the trust! 😉 Took me a while to decide to cry once but I’m very glad I did!

FORD MUSTANG® - RACE RED (ELEVATED)

Very nice built really well it sits in my shop and I sit in it every night after work. The only thing I have to say is I didn’t like spending $600 for this.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

I was blown away by the quality and attention to detail of this chair. The price point is steep but it’s worth every penny. Well done to the folks at Vyper

ELEVATED STEEL MAX

The chair did not ship with the adjustable back rest I ordered. the back rest was back ordered. after sitting in it I canceled the back rest. I got a camo "limited edition". the seat is cloth, they may all be cloth. I thought a leather of pleather surface might stay cleaner. I will cover it when not in use to protect the seat from dust, sawdust, sanding dust and what not. It is a 600 buck chair and other than that it is great, comfortable, rolls and adjust easy. I will not be returning it. it lets me spend more time in my "hobby" shop.

REALTREE® - ORIGINAL CAMO (ELEVATED STEEL MAX)

The chair looks and feels like we expected. The specific seat adjustments will work great for my application. Fit was great. Assembly was straightforward and the chair feels like it can handle everything I expect of it. While doing it comfortably.

ELEVATED STEEL MAX

Customer photo review of REALTREE® - HYDRO - APX CAMO (ELEVATED STEEL MAX)

Absolutely love it and was fun to put together. Heavy duty, strong, no flex in the backrest, very minimal drop (1/2" or so) in the seat height when you sit on it. Make all black wheels/caster hardware and you'd really put these even farther above any competition!

REALTREE® - HYDRO - APX CAMO (ELEVATED STEEL MAX)

Preordered back in July as the color way seemed nice. Received it a little later than anticipated but I was excited nonetheless. Quality is great but a little disheartened the black powder coated foot rail was scuffed on the inner side of the ring right out of the box. It’s a bit disappointing considering there was supposedly a “quality check” before packing and shipping but apparently that’s not the case. For the $700 price of the chair, I’d expect better therefore my lower rating.

FREEDOM EDITION (ELEVATED MODEL)

Very sturdy, comfortable, and moves so smooth. And it comes with heavy duty hardware for assembly!

ELEVATED STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

I reorder for the chair to lift easy because of my age i did not realize it did come with i am 75 year old but the chair is great it will work out great

ELEVATED STEEL MAX

Cant say enough how great these well designed and built chairs are. At 64 and retiring next year cant stay on my feet all day so these will help me work more comfortable as I'm starting to set up my dream shop in a 40x20 4 car garage. When my wife retires we plan to move to land with a much bigger shop so just got the bundle for now when i set up the full detailing area will be getting the low detailing chair and a few other accessory's. The blue matched my big Royal blue Snap On box and cart i will be bringing home in April

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you upgrade.

This is a big purchase. What if I'm not satisfied?

Everything you need to know before you upgrade. If these don't answer your questions, please reach out to us at sales@vyperindustrial.com or call us at (920) 301 3822

I already have a shop stool, why should I upgrade?

If you're like us, you've more than likely either tipped over from hitting a crack or experience annoying back / knee pain from an uncomfortable stool.

Vyper Chairs (and our entire product line) were strategically designed to help reduce fatigue while working, help prevent from tipping over while rolling, and provide comfort for long working durations.

Plus, Vyper Chairs are made in America! Check out our top selling chair here to learn more.

What is a Vyper limited edition?

A Vyper limited edition is a one-time small-batch run of an existing product (chair, stool, creeper, or cart) in a named colorway, finish, or collaboration design, for example: Ghoul (glow-in-the-dark), Phantom (color-shift chameleon), Sublime (green), Voodoo, Scorch, Joker, Vein, Tribute (military canvas), and Warrior 2.0 (hot pink).

We also have an existing line of collaborations with Vyper x Realtree® and Vyper x Hendrick Motorsports that are always available. 

Each limited edition features unique embroidery, custom badges, exclusive stickers and a specific colorway you won't find in the standard lineup. The underlying build (steel frame, casters, foam, mechanisms, capacity, warranty) is identical to the standard product.

Will sold-out Vyper limited editions ever come back?

Once a Vyper limited edition sells out, it does not restock. That's the point, small batch, no second runs. Buyers who miss a drop have to wait for the next release, which will be a different colorway or collaboration entirely.

There are two different styles of limited editions: time based and quantity based. 

Some editions we will run where it’s first come first serve (quantity based). Other times we will run a limited colorway for a certain amount of time (time based). If you miss the cutoff, there’s no going back. 

Occasionally we will re-release a previously sold-out edition as a special return (for example, "Scorch, Joker, Volt, Shocker and Viola are back" was a one-time encore drop, called out as a last-chance opportunity). But the default policy is one-and-done. If you see a limited edition in stock and you want it, lock it in.

Are limited edition Vyper chairs different from regular chairs in build quality?

No. The build is identical to the standard product. A limited edition Robust Steel Max is the same Robust Steel Max underneath: same powder-coated steel frame, same 3.5" industrial foam, same lumbar-support backrest, same 400 lb capacity, same 5-caster anti-tip base, same lifetime warranty on the frame.

What changes is the finish: custom powdercoat color, custom embroidery, custom badges, and specific accent colors on hardware and stitching. You're getting the same chair Chip Foose, Jay Leno and Gas Monkey Garage use, just in a finish that won't be made again.

Are limited edition Vyper chairs different from regular chairs in build quality?

The fastest way is signing up for the Vyper email list and following @vyperchair on Instagram and YouTube, limited editions are announced usually 1 to 2 weeks before the drop with the exact date and time. Most drops go live at 9 AM CST on the announced date.

High-demand drops frequently sell out within hours. Customers on the email list get the announcement first, which is the difference between getting the chair and not.

Can I add custom accessories to a limited edition chair and do they ship with the same accessories as the standard model?

Yes. Limited edition chairs are compatible with the full Vyper accessory lineup (armrests, backrests, EZ-Lift, Big Boy attachment, tool trays, footrails, Sidekick). Many limited editions offer matching-color accessories during the drop window; once the drop closes, accessories may only be available in standard colors.

Gear worth your workspace.

Build your dream garage with chairs, carts, creepers and fans that are guaranteed to outlast anything else in your shop.
