Frequently Asked Questions
sliding movement
Yes, the bench can be locked in the middle, allowing it to be used in the traditional way. The Petervary Smart Piano Bench also offers plenty of extra features without the side movement, such as a multi-layered foam seatpad and backrest for a comfortable, healthy seating position. Furthermore, the electric height adjustment feature is also available and values can be replicated in our other smart benches, with precise adjustment exact to the millimetre.
Research and analysis is currently underway to confirm the true health benefits of the product we offer. Our primary goal has always been to create an innovative solution that improves the comfort and ergonomics of piano playing. Based on the feedback we've received so far and the experiences of our users, it seems that the Petervary Smart Piano Bench could be a significant improvement for those who spend long hours at the piano. Although there is currently no concrete scientific evidence of the health effects of the Smart Piano Bench, all feedback is valued and taken into account in our ongoing product development. Our commitment to quality and customer comfort is at the core of our product and we will provide all information and scientific research as it becomes available.
We would like to confirm that our chair is specifically designed to be silent in use. The innovative and ergonomic design of the chair incorporates mechanisms that ensure a stable position and easy movement without any disturbing noise when playing the piano.
Using the pedal whilst sat on our chair is rather intuitive and simple. You can use the pedal whilst playing the piano in the same way as you would with any conventional piano. This function of the Petervary Smart Piano Bench is in harmony with traditional piano playing and pedal use, so the experience of playing the piano remains not only comfortable, but also natural. In addition to using the legs, the hips or body weight transfer are also effective tools for moving and controlling the chair.
The habit of using the chair varies from person to person and depends on many factors, such as the frequency of playing the piano, individual posture and adaptability. Based on the tests, it can be said that most piano players adapt to the Petervary Smart Piano Bench relatively quickly - within 15-30 minutes, but some took a day to do so. The purpose of the ergonomic design and innovative functions is precisely that pianists can use the chair more comfortably and efficiently with adaptation taking as little time as possible. The first few times you may find the features unusual, but with practice and time, using the chair will become natural. The design and ergonomics of the chair contribute to maintaining a comfortable and healthy posture while playing the piano.
We currently do not make chairs specifically for organists, but the great news is that we are working on a version specifically designed for this instrument as well. Aspects important to organists, such as posture, comfort, stability and arm and hand position, are all crucial for adaptation to an organ. The specially designed version will allow the Petervary Smart Piano Bench to further meet the instrument-specific needs of organists even more. We can reassure you that the version for organists will bring the same high quality and innovation as the model designed for traditional pianists. The version designed for organists expresses our commitment to them and meeting their needs. If you have any further questions or comments about the version for organists, or would like to know more details about the development process, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Since our piano bench is also a tool which can be used on stage, an important aspect of its design was to avoid the possibility of failure. That's why we didn't install any electrical features for the sliding element. To move and control the chair, one can use their legs, move the hips or shift the body weight effectively, which also aids accurate usage. All of this means a new type of movement compared to previously practiced ones, but based on tests and observations, this is relatively simple to adapt to. If you have any further questions regarding the use of the pedal or any other aspect, please do not hesitate to contact us as we are always ready to help.
