Office Chair FAQs
Which type of office chair is best?
There are all kinds of different office chairs on the market, though there are a few distinct types that are often considered the “Best”.
Operator Chairs are perfect for all kinds of workspaces thanks to their subtle designs. Many operator chairs feature built-in armrests to allow you to relax your shoulders. This in turn keeps your back from straining and helps you to work for longer without tiring.
Executive Chairs are designed to bring a sense of sophistication to any office space. They often feature much larger shapes and make use of higher-quality materials, for a truly premium user experience.
Gaming Chairs, unlike standard office chairs, are designed to help desktop gamers to play at their best. They typically come with a range of advanced features such as adjustable armrests and headrests to facilitate long gaming sessions!
What makes an office chair ergonomic?
Ergonomic office chairs promote focus and productivity as you work and they’re designed with a number of key features that help to improve your comfort:
Height Adjustment: You’ll need your seat to be at the right height so that you can plant your feet firmly on the floor.
A Good Backrest: Bad posture can put your spine at risk of aches and pains, as such an ergonomic chair should support the natural curvature of the spine.
Adjustable Armrests: Armrests allow you to relax your arms and ease tension in your shoulders, so you can type for longer.
A Five-Star Base: This kind of base provides optimal stability and allows you to roll the chair easily between spaces.
How long should you sit in your office chair?
We’d recommend that you sit in your office chair for no longer than 20 to 30 minutes at a time. While office chairs are designed for all-day comfort, it’s still recommended to stand up and stretch your legs throughout the day.
Every half hour, we recommend standing up and taking a quick walk away from your desk. This gets your blood pumping, which improves your mood and productivity. It also gives you a chance to rest your eyes by taking them away from the glare of your computer screen.
Taking short breaks like this throughout the workday can vastly improve your physical health in the long term!
Is a gaming chair good for office work?
Gaming chairs are surprisingly versatile. Of course, they’re perfect for long-term use while gaming, but they can also keep you comfortable as you engage with office work.
However, gaming chairs can vary slightly from model to model, as such, you’ll want to make sure your chosen chair is suitable for working. The chair should be ergonomic, and designed to promote a good posture throughout hours of prolonged use.
Good posture is crucial for desk work, as it ensures good blood flow across your body, to keep you from aching, and to keep your brain working at its best.
