I think its so funny how something as simple as an office chair can make you day enjoyable, are these boring times? No I don’t think so. Its just something about that comfy ‘just right’ feeling that a good office chair can give you. These ones we got are nothing amazing really, but they do look smart…infact they give you the feeling of sitting in a Subaru sports car, and boy are they comfortable. Well, I guess in reality you spend a good part of your life sitting in one so it makes sense to have a good chair.

I like to research all interesting things that are new to me, and thought it would be interesting to find out more about what makes a good office chair. These are my findings:

  • A good ergonomic office chair can reduce shoulder, back, and neck strain.
  • An average worker sits more than 7 hours a day.
  • A seat should be adjustable to your unique body type this should include adjustable height and back support.
  • It’s important to choose a chair that matches your occupation. A chair that is more open allows you to move around more freely, a chair that is more ‘hugging’will keep you comfy when sitting in the same position for hours.
  • Your feet should be flat on the floor at all times (not too high).
  • The back support should go with the contour of your back.

Oh yeah assembly is fun to ^^
