More and more people are starting to pay attention to their health and well-being. We spend a lot of time in a sitting position, so it is very important that the work chair provides maximum support for your back and your well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>How to choose from a wide range<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Online stores and furniture stores often have a confusingly large selection of chairs. Where to start when looking for a chair and how to understand that the right one has been found? The methods for finding the right chair may be different, but we&#8217;ve put together a few important steps. Before you start your chair search, think about the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>how many hours do you plan to spend at work;<\/li><li>in which room will your office chair be located &#8211; will it be a room intended for other activities or a separate office;<\/li><li>what is your current work chair, which functions are important to you and what additional functions would be important for the new chair;<\/li><li>what is your work desk &#8211; fixed height or height adjustable;<\/li><li>what design and colors do you prefer;<\/li><li>what is the budget.<\/li><li>Once you have thought about these things, it will be easier for you to navigate the wide range of office chairs and to understand what is unclear in the process and what you want to know more about.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have thought about these things, it will be easier for you to navigate the wide range of office chairs and to understand what is unclear in the process and what you want to know more about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>WORK CHAIR FUNCTIONS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to be able to navigate the large selection of chairs, it is important to know at least the most popular chair functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"SURF task chair by NARBUTAS\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sPB5kXOxyvo?start=1&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>DEPTH ADJUSTABLE SEAT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>People are different, so what works for one will not work for another. If the chair is going to be used by other colleagues or housewives, or you are tall, it is wise to choose a seat with adjustable depth. This option is especially enjoyable for shorter and taller people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>BACK SUPPORT MEC<strong>HANISM<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have seen professional office chairs, you have noticed that many have a mechanism that provides back support. But how does it work? The technology is different and it depends on each manufacturer. The idea is quite simple &#8211; it is an additional support point that can be adjusted in height and depth, depending on the natural curvature of the back. We offer chairs from different manufacturers, in different designs. Nowadays, the new generation of chairs with adjustable mechanisms is becoming more and more popular &#8211; it is a mechanism that adapts to the user&#8217;s weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Interstuhl - PUREis3 - Innovation for your health\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/t4NfYYyvzOE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>SEAT AND BACKREST TILT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like the seat with adjustable depth, the possibility to adjust the inclination of the chair provides additional comfort. We&#8217;ve all seen the tutorials on how to sit properly. But how long can you sit properly? The chairs, which have a movable seat and the inclination of the backrest, are able to adapt to the movement of the body, providing the most important thing &#8211; the necessary support for the body even when you want to lean forward or backward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>ADJUSTABLE ARMRESTS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When we think of a chair for a home workplace, we may not be able to imagine it with adjustable armrests. This could be because we have not thought about their functional necessity! It is important to mention that the armrests are also different. We can divide them into several categories &#8211; 2D, 3D and 4D. D in this case denotes dimensions. 2D armrests are height-adjustable, 3D can be adjusted in height and width, while 4D armrests can be adjusted not only in height and width, but also in the angle of their upper support part.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>CHAIR DESIGN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once it is clear what functions you want for the chair, all you have to do is understand what design chair you are looking for! The chairs are basically available with a mesh back and are fully upholstered. Chairs with a mesh back will be more suitable for a specially designed workspace &#8211; home office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"AccisPro [EN]\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0LfreWeih2c?start=4&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Choosing a work chair is an important issue when it comes to our well-being during the working day.
