Ergonomic Chair Buying Guide

As an administrative staff in a company, getting a chair that fits anyone is very important when shopping for a good ergonomic office chair. Not every chair labeled “ergonomic” has all the features necessary to truly be ergonomic. This article will guide you to make a better selection.

Seat Height Adjustment:

The height of your ergonomic chair should be adjustable. The seat height should be in relation to how tall you are, so a seat height of 15” to 22” will comfortably seat a person between 5’0″ to 6’4″ tall. The seat should be easy to adjust upwards or downwards. This adjustment will allow for people of different heights to comfortably sit on the chair. The seat should have pneumatic height adjustment so you can easily adjust the seat height while you sit on the chair. Your feet should be able to sit flat on the floor while your knees are bent at ninety-degree angles. Adjusting your chair to the right seated height helps minimize stress on the knees and lumber. Most chairs will offer only a small range of adjustment, so pay careful attention to the seated height range of any chair you are considering.

Back Tilt Tension Adjustment:

This adjustment allows the user to adjust the amount of force required to recline to your body weight. Make the user sit in a suitable tilt tension.

The backrest can slide up and down to allow the lumbar curve of the chair’s backrest to fit into your lower back curve. A height adjustable lumbar support is a common substitution.

Seat Pan Size:

As an ergonomic office chair, the seat pan should be deep enough to support most of your upper leg. And the width of the seat should be wider than your hips. It’s believed that almost all office chairs are meet this condition.

Armrests:

The armrests of an ergonomic chair should be height or width or outwards adjustable. In addition, a swing back arm will also allow the user to move the arm out of the way when not needed. But these three adjustments usually could not be in one chair. Ideally, armrests should be outwards and width-adjustable to allow a more personalized fit and allow the users to better position the arms for support while typing.

Stable Base and Quality Casters:

The chair base should have a minimum five-casters base. It is easy to tip over when reclining back in your chair with less five spoke bases. Quality casters can slide freely over various floor surfaces.

Headrest:

Strongly recommend buying a chair with a headrest if you have some pain in your neck. Because a headrest can provide support for your head and can reduce the weight of your neck must support.

Footrest:

When you want to relax or take a nap for a while, the telescopic footrest will make your more comfortable. And with a tilt-adjustable, you seem to lay on the bed to have a break at lunchtime.
