YOU NEED THIS BUNDLE IF YOU...

YOU NEED THIS BUNDLE IF YOU...

BIG GUYS WHO ARE TIRED OF SEATS THAT DON'T FIT

If you're 6'2"+ and over 250 lbs, the standard 14-inch seat puts you on the edges instead of in the chair. The Big Boy is the upgrade that finally fits you. Buyers at 6'4" 400 lbs, 6'5" 350 lbs, and every size up will tell you this is the first shop chair that actually accommodates them.

OLDER BUYERS WHO WANT THE MOST STABLE, COMFORTABLE CONFIGURATION

The bundle skews older for a reason. Wider seat means easier to sit down without perfectly centering yourself. Wider seat means leverage to push off when standing up. Big Boy adds weight and stability that buyers in their 60s, 70s, and 80s rely on to keep using the chair safely. Tool Tray means tools come to you instead of you walking back for them.

SERIOUS DIYERS AND PROS WHO KNOW THEY'LL ADD ACCESSORIES EVENTUALLY

If you're already convinced you want the RSM and you've spent enough time in working garages to know the Big Boy and Tool Tray are the two upgrades buyers wish they'd added at the start, the Fully Loaded version saves you $135 and saves you the retrofit hassle. The buyers who add these later don't regret the upgrades. They regret not buying the bundle.

THOSE WHO WANT TO BUY AMERICAN MADE

Every Vyper chair, stool, cart, and creeper in this bundle is designed, welded, powder-coated, and assembled in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Built here, by Americans, on American soil. The team that builds your bundle is the same team that picks up the phone if you call us. When you buy a Vyper bundle, you're paying American workers, not subsidizing factories overseas. That matters to a lot of our customers. It matters to us too.

Proudly American Made

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

Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 4284 reviews.

I bought the Vyper chair for my husband who is a wood sculptor/wood carver. The adjustable aspect makes it perfect to get the right angles for working on his projects.

ROBUST STEEL MAX

Nervous about the price before ordering but that went away once I saw the parts and once I sat on it and used it the price didn't matter any more. Nothing like it . Highly recommend.

ROBUST STEEL MAX

Hi quality product. This is my 2nd shop stool from Vyper Industrial.

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

I received the Vyper Robust Stee Max and the assembly was the most fun I've had putting something like it together in a very long time. Overall, I am impressed with the ruggedness and beauty and comfort of the product and look forward to skittering around my workshop on it, sometimes for no apparent reason at all. A quality product if I've ever seen one.

ROBUST STEEL MAX

I'm 80 yr old & this chair is easy to get up from & rolls around easily .

ROBUST STEEL MAX

Really love the chair!! One thing aggravating about the experience though - I received the chair on Thursday and didn't receive the Big Boy add-on til Monday. I wanted to use the chair, so I assembled it right away on Friday. Then when I received and went to put the Big Boy on, I basically had to take the entire EZLtift seat area back apart and reassemble it. That was aggravating. My guess is that you probably shipped the two boxes together, but FedEx didn't deliver them together? I have had MANY VERY BAD EXPERIENCES with Fed Ex. As a matter of fact, if I had know that you used Fed Ex, I would have purchased the chair through Amazon instead of direct from you, simply to avoid FedEx. Just thought I would vent a little and let you know how your service provider (FedEx) performs and is perceived by customers, like me. Again, I love the chair, very high quality, the rollers are awesome for the concrete floor of my woodworking shop. No more falling out of my chair when I hit a small piece of wood on the floor, just roll right over it. Sincerely, Martin

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

The phrase you get what you pay for fits perfectly. This chair is very well built and look forward to many years of use. The assembly process can be cumbersome, as I did have some issues getting the wheels installed. I would give this a 4.8 out of 5.

FORD MUSTANG® - RACE RED

Best shop chair out there!!

ROBUST STEEL MAX

Great product. This is the 3rd time I have ordered fron Vyper and I have been happy with the product and shipping every time.

FORD® OVAL - FORD BLUE

So well built and sturdy!

ROBUST STEEL MAX

I like the chair so far, haven't used it much yet but seems well built and heavy duty. Would recommend.

ROBUST STEEL MAX

It works … second vyper, so that’s enough of a compliment.

ROBUST STEEL MAX

Easy order and quick delivery. Easy to assemble and best of all its very comfortable!

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Love the chair. Craftsmanship is excellent even the fasteners used to assemble were top shelf

ROBUST STEEL MAX

Absolutely top quality!! Assembly was very simple, instructions were very easy to understand. Rolls over everything, the 5 casters make it very stable. The thick padding on the seat and the backrest make it very comfortable even when sitting for extended periods of time. 100% worth the price.

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Quality is obvious when taken out of the box. Easy to assemble. Once all the bolts and nuts are tight, it's like having a miniature heavy duty dozer under your gluteus maximus easily gliding across any direction of garage floor. Expensive but as they say you get what you pay for.

Customer photo review of FORD MUSTANG® - GRABBER BLUE

I love my Ford Vyper chair! The assembly was played out great in the manual. I added the numbers to each bag. Before I started the assembly. The wheels glide over the garage floor wit ease. The cushions are really comfortable. You can feel the quality.

Customer photo review of FORD® BRONCO - SHADOW BLACK (ROBUST)

Here it is next to the Vyper wana be chairs that I put together till I could afford the real deal. The Vyper is super awesome and comfortable. Glad I bought it finally. Like they say buy once cry once. The fit and material is far superior than I could have hoped for. The back rest is in that sweet spot and the gas cylinder is great.

FORD® BRONCO - SHADOW BLACK (ROBUST)

Love the chair, my shop burned last March, moodys hot rods and muscle cars.... I had a couple of them in that shop, im still fighting litigation with insurance companies or I would have bought 2, just can't afford right now.

Customer photo review of ROBUST STEEL MAX

I LOVE my Viper! Every piece is heavy duty, easy to assemble and looks bad a**! I added the sidekick and tray to my initial order and I’m so glad I did. I have no doubt my viper chair will out live me. Thank you

ROBUST STEEL MAX

Took a bit to assemble it, but when you see quality you’ll know why! Bought it for my 84-year-old father who still runs his whole farm, donkey, feet and all ha ha. He said he took a tumble two or three times in his old chair. But he seen this one online and was super happy when we were done assembling it! Definitely worth the money!

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Shipping was fast with no damage. Product is great quality and nice looking. One petty issue is the backrest was not wrapped and had a lot of styrofoam pellets stuck to it and was a bit difficult to clean off. Compared to some other stools i think is overpriced

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

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

I am a retired precision machinist of 35 years. Also a machine builder. So, I know quality when I see it. This VYPER chair I bought is the very best item I have purchased since my Harley Electra glide, well done to all of you in VYPER company. Your quality is top notch. Thank you from Mark!

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

Instructions are very poor. The pictures are not adequately labeled to understand by somebody who is less than a machinist. More wrenches are required than our call for in the instructions. All in all not impossible to assemble, but could save a lot of time with better instructions.

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

So far just love this thing! So much better than my other one 👍

ROBUST STEEL MAX (EZ-LIFT)

I love everything, amazing chair, so glad I bought this, it’s worth the money, not a cheap chair, it’s amazing

NO. 5 KYLE LARSON EDITION

a little pricy, but well worth it. Easy to assemble, very sturdy, rolls over bumpy terrain easily

Customer photo review of FORD MUSTANG® - SHADOW BLACK

My son loves these chairs and I’m going to purchase an elevated one for the shop.

FORD MUSTANG® - SHADOW BLACK

Shipping was perfect, zero damage to the exterior box.

FORD® OVAL - FORD BLUE

I Love the chair I received. I made a mistake in not ordering the Chair that raise to the higher position. 🤔☹️ I will use it anyway because I cannot invest that much again to get the one I really wanted. Nothing against the Chair I received. Like I said it is everything you said it was It is the best build Chair I have ever seen. The assembly was simple and the directions were well displayed. Love it. ❤️❤️

LET'S TALK SHOP

Everything you need to know before you upgrade.

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

We get it. The price is more than you've spent on a shop chair/stool/cart before, and you can't sit in it before you buy it. That's why every Vyper purchase comes with a 30-day, 100% money-back guarantee. Roll it, sit in it, put it through a real weekend in your shop. If it's not what we said it was, send it back. We'll refund every penny and cover the return shipping.

The lifetime warranty on the frame, hardware, and casters covers you long after the 30 days are up. If you have questions before or after purchase, call (920) 301-3822 and you'll reach a real person at our Green Bay headquarters. Not a chatbot, not an offshore call center. The team that builds your chair is the team that picks up the phone.

We've built this so the risk is on us, not you.

How do I know which Vyper Chair is right for me?

Quick decision tree based on the work you do:

Working at standard workbench height? Robust Steel Max chair (or Robust Steel Pro stool if you don't need a backrest or adjustability).

Working at tall fab tables, weld benches, or counter-height workstations? Our Elevated Steel Max chair.

Detailing, polishing, or any work close to the ground? Low Pro stool. For ultra-low work (wheels, baseboards, lower body panels), pair it with a Mini Creeper.

Working under cars, trucks, or anything that needs an undercar position? Lay-Down Creeper. Foldable Creeper if you need a portable secondary.

Need mobile tool storage that rolls between bays? X32 Series Tool Cart.

Hot summers in the shop with no AC? Vyper Turbo Fan 24".

If your work cycles between multiple positions (which most working shops do), check our bundles. We've configured packages around the way buyers actually work.

Still unsure? Call us at (920) 301-3822. Real humans in Green Bay who can walk you through the right pick for your shop.

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

Honest answer: if your current stool works for you, doesn't hurt your back, doesn't tip when you reach, doesn't have foam that's flat, and isn't on its way to the dumpster within a year or two, you don't need to upgrade.

But that's not why most buyers come to us. Most buyers upgrade because they've owned three or four cheap stools at $80 to $150 each and they're tired of the cycle. Foam compresses. Wheels break. Frames bend. Welds pop. Within two years, the stool is junk and they're shopping again.

A Vyper chair starts around $475 and includes a lifetime warranty on the frame, hardware, and casters. Buy once. Sit comfortably. Stop replacing every couple of years. The math works out over a decade.

The other reason buyers upgrade: the cheap stool was hurting them. Bad foam, no lumbar support, low weight capacity, narrow seat. After 30 years of trade work, that stool wasn't doing them any favors. The Vyper is the chair that finally lets them keep working without paying for it the next morning.

Is Vyper actually made in the USA?

Yes. Every chair, stool, cart, and creeper is designed, welded, powder-coated, and assembled in Wisconsin. Built here, by Americans, on American soil.

The team that builds your equipment is the same team you'll talk to if you call customer service. Pioneering shop equipment manufacturing in the U.S. since 2020.

When you buy a Vyper, you're paying American workers, not subsidizing factories overseas. That matters to a lot of our customers. It matters to us too.

Are Vyper products good for older buyers, people with bad backs, or those with mobility issues?

A real pattern across our reviews: customers in their 60s, 70s, and 80s, customers with back surgeries, amputees, customers with sciatica, and customers with bad knees explicitly mention Vyper as the equipment that lets them keep working in the shop.

A few specific reasons why:

The Robust Steel Max and Elevated Steel Max chairs have lumbar-support backrests and 3.5-inch industrial foam seats. The smooth EZ-Lift height adjustment lets you dial in the exact position your back needs without fighting a stuck pin. The five-caster anti-tip base keeps the chair planted when you're sitting down or standing up.

The Big Boy attachment is the most-recommended upgrade for older buyers. The wider seat means you don't have to perfectly center yourself when sitting down, and the wider surface gives you leverage to push off when standing. Reviewers explicitly mention this as a confidence upgrade for buyers worried about getting in and out of the chair safely.

The Adjustable Armrest gives older buyers something solid to grip while sitting down or standing up. Multiple reviewers in their 70s and 80s call this a safety upgrade, not a comfort one. Customers with mobility limitations and amputees mention the armrests as the reason they can use the chair independently.

The Adjustable Backrest is the upgrade for buyers with sciatica, spinal surgeries, or chronic back issues. The height adjustment puts lumbar support exactly where it needs to be. The 10-degree tilt lets you change positions throughout the day instead of being locked into one angle.

The Mini Creeper and Low Pro stool keep you off the concrete for low work. Buyers who can't kneel anymore use these for the wheel detailing, brake jobs, baseboards, and outlet wiring that used to mean kneeling on the floor.

If you have specific concerns about whether a Vyper product is right for your situation, call us at (920) 301-3822 before ordering. Real humans in Green Bay who can talk through your specific needs and recommend the right configuration.

Gear worth your workspace.

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