Let’s consider some key points when selecting an Ergonomic chair.

  • Adjustability: Ensure that your chair can adjust in some, or all the areas listed below, to accommodate your bodies optimum level of comfort, for example our Merryfair Ergonomic Range.
  • Seat Depth: Around 40% of the Thighs should be supported by the seat, sliders allow the user to move the seat to their comfort position whilst seated for example, the Merryfair Motion High Back Ergonomic Chair. 
  • Armrests: Adjustable, broad and comfortable so that your elbows can fit comfortably on them for example the Merryfair Wau Ergonomic Chair. 
     
  • Seat and Backrest materials: Most common being fabric seat for structure, and mesh breathable backrest for example the Merryfair Tune Ergonomic Chair.
