The HÅG Capisco Puls 8020 is a versatile and modern ergonomic chair designed for dynamic sitting.

One common question we receive is: 

Can I put a head rest on a HAG Capisco Puls 8010 or 8020? 

The short answer is yes.

Technical Compatibility

The frame of the Capisco Puls shares structural similarities with other chairs in the Capisco range, such as the Capisco 8106 and 8107. This means that the same headrest unit can be physically mounted on the Capisco Puls. The installation is feasible, and the headrest will function as intended.

Design and Visual Integration

Despite the compatibility, it’s important to consider the visual and material coherence of this combination. The headrest is upholstered and was designed to complement the soft, fully upholstered appearance of the Capisco 8106 and 8107 models. These chairs feature plush seat and back padding, giving them a cohesive, high-end aesthetic.

The Capisco Puls, by contrast, is built around a lightweight plastic shell with a minimalist, contemporary design. Adding an upholstered headrest to a plastic-backed chair can create a contrast that some users may find visually inconsistent.

Who Might Still Benefit From It?

If your primary concern is extended comfort—especially during long periods of reclined work or relaxation—the addition of a headrest may still be worthwhile.
