Office workers have to sit in the office for several hours every day. Choosing a comfortable office chair can not only improve employees’ work efficiency but also relieve fatigue and reduce the pressure brought by work. So how to determine the comfort and quality of an office chair?
If you try to choose a lift office chair when buying an office chair, or choose according to the height of yourself and the desk, if the office chair does not meet your own conditions, it will not only affect the comfort but also easily cause symptoms such as lumbar or neck diseases. When buying, you must choose an office chair that allows your legs to land smoothly, which can greatly reduce the chance of occupational diseases. When purchasing, you should also pay attention to the fact that the armrests of the office chair cannot be too high, which will cause the shoulders to rise, and it is also easy to cause discomfort in the waist, back or neck and also affect comfort.
The most basic design requirements of ergonomic chairs are to ensure the support of the legs, waist, neck, and elbows when sitting, and to ensure the right angle, which is the key to reducing fatigue from sitting for a long time.
The support of the back is particularly important. Most people feel uncomfortable in the waist when sitting for a long time. For people who sit for a long time, if the waist is not well supported or the sitting posture is incorrect, it will increase the burden on the lumbar spine, causing lumbar muscle strain or lumbar disc herniation. Reasonable design should be based on the backrest, the lumbar support is full, and the spine should be kept in a low pressure state.
To judge the comfort and quality of an office chair, the cushion is also very important. When purchasing, you can press the cushion with your palm for 5 to 10 seconds, and then pull it out to see if the sponge has strong resilience. If it rebounds quickly, it proves that the quality of the cushion is good. If the sponge sinks deeper when pressed, it also proves that the thickness of the sponge is also very good.
Mesh office chairs are more comfortable in terms of material than office chairs made of other materials. Now many office furniture companies use mesh materials for their office chairs. Because the material is elastic and soft, when the user leans back, the chair back material can tightly support the back, and the back curvature can be adjusted according to their own physical needs, which not only protects the waist, but also meets their own comfort requirements.
The weight of an office chair can also be used to judge the quality of a chair. Generally, a good quality office chair is heavier than an inferior chair. To determine whether a chair is comfortable, you still have to sit on it and feel it yourself.
