Desk Chairs

F.A.Q.

What is the best desk chair for sitting all day?

Ergonomic desk chairs are the best option for people who need to sit for prolonged periods. Chairs with this design typically have fully adjustable armrests, backrests, and seat heights. These convenient features allow you to customize your setup for your body and desk. For example, you can raise or lower the height of your seat so your forearms are level with the desk to prevent shoulder and wrist strain. Additionally, you can maximize your comfort by choosing a chair made from cushy but supportive materials. For example, a chair made from soft leather or upholstery will cradle your back, preventing stiffness and soreness. Mesh fabric desk chairs also provide support without restricting airflow between your body and the chair, helping you stay cool.

Are quality desk chairs worth the investment?

An excellent desk chair can significantly improve your quality of life. The top desk chairs have ergonomic designs to keep you comfortable and safe throughout the workday. In addition, quality office furniture improves productivity. You can work more efficiently and for longer periods of time if you have a comfortable desk chair. A supportive desk chair also helps you stay alert and feel focused. If you want to be more comfortable and productive, a quality desk chair is definitely worth the investment.

How often should you replace your desk chair?

Typically, you should replace your desk chair every five to seven years. Over time, padded chairs tend to lose their firmness and provide less support for your neck and spine. Replace your desk chair when the seat cushion or back gets worn out to avoid injury. Additionally, you should get a new chair if the armrests or base get damaged. These features provide additional support and stability for your arms and back. You should also replace your desk chair if you feel increasingly uncomfortable while sitting for long periods. This discomfort could indicate that the chair is wearing out or that your body needs more support.

The Desk Chairs Guide

If you’ve spent any extended period of time sitting at a desk, you’ll know that a comfortable and supportive chair can be the difference between a productive day’s work and hours of pain or discomfort. Finding the proper chair for your home office setup takes a little bit of research, but will be well worth it in the long run.

When it comes to choosing a desk chair, there isn’t a one-size fits all approach. The settings and functionality will be determined by a person’s physical attributes—like height, weight, and any additional support that’s needed (i.e. lumbar support). Learn more in our guide below.

Finding The Right Chair for You

To help hone in on the ideal desk chair, consider the primary function needed, as well as any physical accommodations needed while completing tasks. Do you plan to spend a full 8-hour work day sitting in this chair? Is your work computer-heavy and involves looking at screens? Is the ability to change between sitting and standing throughout the day important? Here are some initial factors to consider before you start your search.
