Ergonomic Office Task Chairs
Office Task chairs are typically more compact than other office chairs. Computer chairs are perfect for those with a variety of duties, but with limited interaction. Almost of our Office task chairs can be purchased armless.
When buying a Office task chair, look for the same ergonomic features available on our ergonomic computer chairs. Easily adjustable chair surfaces allow you to move around freely and help to maintain support for your back, legs and arms as you change body positions. A good ergonomic task chair can be the difference between absolute comfort and irritating distress.
- Is the seat comfortable and does it fit?
The seat of an ergonomic task chair should be at least one inch wider than the hips and thighs on either side. For optimal comfort, the seat should have a waterfall front and concave contour to allow your weight to be evenly distributed.
- Is the backrest or lumbar support height adjustable so it can be fit different people?
Many ergonomic task chairs have cushioned lumbar supports that can be adjusted up and
down and forwards and backwards to best fit your shape. If the chair will
be used by multiple users then this level of adjustment should be required.
- Is the foam dense enough to support your weight?
If the seat is made from low-density foam continuous use can cause
it to become permanently deformed and it will no longer provide adequate support. Insufficient cushioning or inappropriate contouring can cause discomfort, imbalance, and hip and back fatigue.
- Does the ergonomic task chair have a "waterfall" seat cushion that slopes down at the front to help improve circulation to lower legs?
If the seat is too long the cushion may exert pressure behind your knees and reduce circulation in your legs. Most ergonomic chairs have a waterfall front that prevents the seat from catching you behind the knees.
- Is the chair height adjustable so your feet are flat on the floor?
You should be able to adjust the height of the seat so that the front
of your knees are level or slightly below level and your feet are firmly
on the ground. The mechanism to adjust seat height should be easy to reach and operate
when you are seated.
- Can you reach all the chair adjustments from a seated position?
A good ergonomic chair should move with you and be easily adjusted to match your various tasks throughout the day. Make sure the all the controls are easy to reach.
- Does the chair have a 5 pedestal base?
If chair mobility is important to help you to do your work then the task chair
should have at least a 5 pedestal base with casters that glide freely over
the floor surface.
