How to choose the right office chair
- Task chairs: for everyday desk work. Look for adjustable seat height and a supportive backrest.
- Ergonomic chairs: for long working days. Adjustable lumbar support, seat depth and armrests help reduce strain on your back and shoulders.
- Executive chairs: high backs and extra padding, often in leather or faux leather. Ideal for managers' offices and meeting rooms.
- Key adjustments: seat height, backrest tilt, lumbar support and armrests. The more a chair adjusts, the better it fits different users.
- Quality standard: look for EN 1335, the European standard for office work chairs.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best office chair for back pain?
An ergonomic chair with adjustable lumbar support is usually the best choice. Look for adjustable seat height, seat depth and armrests so the chair fits your body. If back pain continues, speak to a health professional.
How should I set up my office chair?
Sit with your feet flat on the floor and your knees level with or slightly below your hips. Adjust the backrest so it supports the curve of your lower back. Leave a gap of two to three fingers between the front of the seat and the back of your knees. Set the armrests so your shoulders stay relaxed.
Should I choose a mesh or fabric office chair?
Mesh chairs are breathable and stay cooler, which suits warm offices and long days. Fabric chairs feel softer and come in more colours. Leather and faux leather chairs look smart and are easy to wipe clean.
How much weight can an office chair hold?
Most standard office chairs are designed for users up to about 110kg. Heavy-duty chairs are rated higher, often 150kg or more. Always check the maximum user weight before you buy.
Do I need a chair mat?
A chair mat protects carpets and hard floors from wear caused by chair wheels, and helps your chair roll more easily. See our range of chair mats.
