Now with Pi Topping for a Limited Time!
The Pi Topping is a 1/4" foam sticky mat that adds extra cushioning and comfort to your Pi To Go Meditation Bench. The sticky mat material helps to keep the Topping in place. The Pi Topping is removable. Color options are not available and will be of a dark color as shown.
The Pi To Go Meditation Bench is a simple kneeling bench that offers greater comfort during meditation. The design is so unique, you'll wonder why nobody thought of it before now. The Pi To Go is a folding version for easier transport as the legs fold down flat to just over an inch thick.
As with the original Pi Bench, the feet are located in the center of the bench where they will not impede your ability to comfortably place your legs under the bench. There is no border on the outer ends of the bench to impinge on your calves. Yet, the feet are far enough apart at the center to create a stable platform for your meditation posture.
The rounded feet can be set in an infinite number of positions so that you can place the bench at the perfect angle for your comfort. The height of the bench combined with this feature creates a comfortable sitting posture for anyone.
The bench is hand made from select hardwoods and finished with a durable lacquer coat. The wood color can vary from a warm honey ash to natural oak color. Each bench has distinct wood grain and markings making this uniquely your bench.
This product is made in Wisconsin, USA.

More than I thought
I love this bench so much. I use it for meditation and the curved legs makes it so I can get the perfect posture. I also use it when playing video games or as a footstool when sitting on the sofa. It's an amazing little piece of furniture.

Fantastic meditation bench
I love my new travel meditation bench! I'm having to work up to sitting on it longer, but I like that my quadriceps are getting a good stretch. I alternate between this and my cushion. It's very easy to use. I'm 5'11, so this is another reason it's taking me some time to adjust to it. It's very sturdy. The top has all the gorgeous character of real wood. Plus the shipping was incredibly fast. I will happily purchase from this store again.

PEACE Pi
When i use my meditation bench it allows me to kneel comfortably and adjust as needed. i do not feel like it will break at any time while seated and when folded it is up to me to make sure to carry with care. i am happy with this product.

Awesome little bench
I originally looked at this bench before purchasing a less expensive model on Amazon. Well, I wound up returning that one because it broke off the hinges after about 2 weeks. I am a light weight person and very careful with my stuff and it still broke. Enter the PI Bench!!!! Obviously this would have been a smart first choice. I am ecstatic over this bench. Sturdy and extremely well made. Expert craftsmanship and very comfortable. Totally would purchase again!!!!! Do not hesitate!!! You get what you pay for. Well done PI Bench.

Pi is the way to go
I tried a lot of meditation positions and benches before getting the original Pi. I can't sit crosslegged very long no matter how many cushions I use and I couldn't get comfortable for long periods in a chair. I tried three different seiza benches before purchasing a Pi. It is my absolute favorite and I recently bought the Pi to Go so I can have my bench with me when I travel. It folds fairly flat for packing and is sturdy enough for me at 175 lbs when unfolded. I read a review that said a downside of the Pi was that it was a little slippery to sit on. I'm OK with sitting without a cushion as I got used to the finished wood surface after a while. For longer sits, I took a thin yoga mat and cut a custom cushion that solved the slippery issue as well as provide a little extra comfort. I would have saved myself a few bucks if I would have tried the Pi earlier on in my search for the perfect bench, and I have no reservations in recommending this to anyone else either looking for a bench to try or wanting a replacement. Be well.

Great little bench
This bench is very comfortable when used together with a folded blanket under the shins & knees. The bodily position it supports is nicely conducive to peaceful focus. The bench is built firmly in a high-quality way. The collapsible feet are a nice feature: they allow you to store the bench when not in use or pack it in a suitcase. I am very happy with it. If a friend were looking for a meditation seat, I would recommend this one.

Meditation bench
Absolutely beautiful!!!!!

very nice -- but a little short for me
Bench is very nice and well made, and surprisingly study. The one improvement I would suggest is to offer some models that are one and two inches taller, as I am over 6 feet, with long legs and pretty big feet, and these benches are a bit snug for me. Otherwise, very nicely made product.
