Comfort is only one of the factors buyers should consider when testing the quality of an ergonomic office chair. Here are the rest to look out for:
Adjustability: At the very least, an ergonomic chair should have pneumatic height function (unless it’s a kneeling chair), where pressurized air is used to transition into different heights as the user is seated with feet flat on the ground. This system makes adjustment simple and smooth. Additionally, buyers should check for chair tilt and if the chair can be fixed at certain tilt angles. If it’s a swivel chair, check the ease of turning while seated.
Comfort: Most office chairs are comfortable the moment you sit down, but the same might not be said after 30 minutes of sitting. Make sure the cushioning is thick but not dense. If it’s a swivel chair, check for cushioning everywhere, including armrests. As for kneeling chairs, test the cushioning on the seat and knee pad.
Ergonomic Support: As previously mentioned, comfort and ergonomic support don’t necessarily go hand in hand. An ergonomic chair promotes the natural S-curve of the spine, as well as relieves lumbar pressure. The armrest must also maintain the L-shape for proper typing posture.
Mobility: A person with a larger workspace may benefit more from a wheeled chair for the ability to move to one end of the desk to another without leaving their seat. Check the ease of mobility on the chair’s wheels by moving around while sitting on the kneeling chair.
Now that you have all this information, let’s get right into the DRAGONN Ergonomic Kneeling Chair review.
