How to choose the right home office chair

A good office chair is important for a good working environment. Regardless of whether you are going to use the office chair in your office or a teenager's room, a sitting position is important to take care of your back and neck. How your desk chair fits your desk is crucial to sitting comfortably, and therefore you need to find the right setting on the office chair so that you get the correct sitting height, sitting position, lumbar support, and arm support. We have office chairs with and without backrests, headrests, and armrests, with low or high backs and underframes with and without wheels and a raise-lower function. At JYSK, we focus on requirements for safety and quality, and you can therefore safely buy your favorite office chair from our large range.

In order to select the right home office chair for you, it is important to take into consideration the amount of time you spend in your home or workspace. If you frequently work at home, it is important to make ergonomic comfort a priority. Be sure to choose a work chair with several customisation options and ergonomic features that can be adjusted to your needs. There are a number of features that are good to have in mind before making a purchase.

• Adjustable - adjustment of seat height with raising/lowering function and adjustment of seat and backrest.
• Upholstered backrest and seat - provides the most optimal support and seating comfort.
• With or without armrests - can provide a more relaxed position in front of the computer if the arms rest on it.
• Headrest - a relief for the neck muscles.
• Tilt function - sit back and relax in the back, instead of hanging over the desk.

Consider how much time you will be spending at the desk - whether you need to game or work, and adjust the features accordingly. The more time you spend on your home office chair, the more setting options there should be.

5 Tips for correct sitting position in your computer chair 

1. Place your feet flat on the floor at your office desk.
2. Ensure your legs and arms are at a 90 degree angle. 
3. Your desk and office chair should be two-to-three centimeters higher than your elbow. Make sure to relax your shoulders when measuring.
4. You should not be relying on your armrest to offer you support, the armrest offers comfort when needed.
5. Make sure you change your siting position on your office chair, take a short walk or stretch every hour.
