A good office chair provides sufficient support for your back, neck, and arms, and is ergonomically designed to keep your body in a healthy posture. Key features of a good office chair include adjustable backrest, seat height, and armrests, as well as a comfortable seat. Chairs with additional features such as synchronous mechanisms and a tilt mechanism can further optimize posture.
The lifespan of an office chair depends on its use and the quality of its materials. A high-quality office chair can last an average of 7-10 years with daily use. Less expensive chairs may have a shorter lifespan, but with proper maintenance and use, these chairs can also last for several years. At AJ Products, we offer a standard 7-year warranty on all our products.
The best ergonomic office chair is one that can be fully adjusted to your body. This means the chair should have an adjustable backrest, seat height, armrests, and lumbar support.
To properly adjust your office chair, follow these steps:
Make sure your feet are flat on the floor and your knees form a 90-degree angle.
Adjust the seat height so that your arms can rest comfortably on the desk, with your elbows also at a 90-degree angle.
The backrest should support the natural curve of your spine. If your chair has lumbar support, make sure it's properly positioned.
Adjust the armrests so that your shoulders remain relaxed.
If necessary, use the tilt mechanism to allow your back to move while you work.
Sitting for long periods can be the main cause of discomfort at the office, and, in some cases, it can lead to long-term posture problems. That is why every work chair in our range is ergonomically designed to provide comfort and reduce the risk of associated health concerns, both immediate and long-term. Not to mention, our office chairs are also aesthetically-pleasing.
The ideal work chair should have an ergonomic design and be fully customisable to meet your needs. To that extent, here are a few things to look out for:
Our chairs are made from high-quality materials like leather, mesh, wool, synthetic leather, and fabric. If you need meeting room chairs for your conference room, try our elegant synthetic leather options. If you need something that will endure more daily use, you might want to go for our more practical mesh options.
You need chairs that provide your employees with the ergonomic support they need. To this end, we offer chairs equipped with synchronous mechanisms – these are chairs where the backrests and seats move in tandem. We also have chairs with rake mechanisms – these chairs have backrests that can be locked into multiple positions.
