Ask anyone who works from home what the single most important piece of furniture is in their home office and they will tell you that a comfortable, supportive office chair is absolutely critical to their success. Because you spend so long at work sitting down at the computer, a badly designed chair can lead to postural problems, back ache and muscle strains. How do you know what to look for to ensure that your chair won’t let you down? Read on for some top tips on selecting the right chair to complete your home office perfectly.
 

Adjustability is Key
 
Because no two people are exactly the same shape, you need a chair which can be altered to meet your individual requirements. Office chairs that are ergonomic and come with adjustment features are essential for home office work because their sitting position can be altered to properly accommodate your work. Seat height, back rest angle and arm rest height should all be adjustable to enable you to get a perfect fit. Some models feature head rests for additional support.
 
Try Before You Buy
 
It’s almost impossible to know whether a chair will suit without trying it out. If possible, visit a reputable furniture warehouse and try out the various models which are on offer. Most office furniture providers will be happy to help you find one which is exactly right and will match online prices for the same product.
 
Build Around the Chair
 
Ensure that all the furniture in your home office complements your choice of chair. If possible, select an adjustable desk which can be altered to give you the perfect height and incline at which to work once seated in your chair. If you’re not sure what features to look for, a handy guide to making your working environment more ergonomic and user friendly you always check the Internet for information regarding the said issue.
 
Working from home is a fantastic opportunity to achieve a better work/life balance whilst still being productive. Choosing furniture which allows you good posture whilst working can have numerous health benefits as well as facilitating better concentration and output.
