Don't Replace Your Chair Without Trying These 5 Adjustments

Just to be clear, we're an office furniture and seating company. We love to sell new ergonomic chairs. That being said, you might not need one just yet. With a few proper adjustments you'll likely be able to get more out of your current seating situation. From adjusting the height of your chair to tweaking the angle at which you work, the 6 adjustments show here might just prolong your need for a new chair and save you a little money in the process.

1.) Adjust Chair Height

First things first, you've got to analyze your chair height. Even if you've got the best new office chair on the market, if it's set too low you'll be restricting blood flow in your legs. Restricted blood flow can lead to cramping and fatigue. If your chair is set too high you'll be straining to compute. The perfect chair height is slightly different for everyone as we are all different for everyone. You want your chair set to a height that allows your thighs to rest flat across the seat with your feet flat on the ground, thus creating a 45 degree angle. This creates stability, optimal blood flow, and support.

2.) Adjust Chair Arms

Even many of the basic ergonomic office chairs manufactured in the last 5 years come standard with height adjustable arms. Your chair might even have width adjustable arms with swiveling arm caps. Setting up your arms for healthy computing is essential. Your forearms should be flush with the arm pads and level with your keyboard. Proper arm height will reduce muscular effort in the neck and shoulders to minimize risk of pain throughout long work days.

3.) Adjust Tilt Tension

Your chair tilts from a pivot point underneath the seat. The tilt tension knob (typically located underneath the front edge of your seat) controls the rate of recline. You don't want your chair set so loose that it creates a falling feeling every time you lean back. Alternatively, you don't want your tilt tension so tight that straining is required to rock gently throughout the work day. A little rocking motion in your personal task chair is a good thing. When you lean back and forth on your chair back, your muscles are active, working, and effective. It's when you sit stagnant for long periods of time that fatigue strikes!

4.) Adjust Seat Depth

If your chair has an adjustable seat, you definitely need to use it. It's an awesome weapon in your ergonomic arsenal against discomfort. The seat depth feature allows you to slide your chair up behind your thighs for additional knee support. If there's a wide gap between the back of your knee and the office chair when sitting naturally, it's a problem!

5.) Adjust Lumbar Support

Shoppers always want a chair with an adjustable lumbar support. The problem is, they seldom use the adjustment feature to improve comfort. The "set it and forget it" approach to office chair comfort isn't going to work regardless of what chair you use. Like all chair features, the lumbar support needs to be adjusted to your specific body type to provide optimal support. Adjusting the lumbar area of your chair will increase or decrease the curvature of the chair to fit the profile of your lower back. If you perform all of the adjustments above, your lumbar will need to be tweaked as well. If you don't have an ergonomic computer chair with an adjustable lumbar support feature, lower back pads are available at a fraction of the cost of an all new chair.

Bonus Tip: Take Short Breaks

Lat but not least, you need to take short breaks. Even the most advanced office seating solutions are not intended to be used around the clock without short breaks. As you sit for hours on end, even the best posture habits suffer. Take a 5 to 10 minute break once an hour to stay refreshed. Walk away from your desk, get a drink of water to stay hydrated, and stretch out your muscles to get the blood flowing!

Sit Superior With A Weight Sensing Office Chair

Weight sensing office chairs are the latest ergonomic craze. They'll soon become the industry standard and we'll wonder how we lived without them. The ability to improve comfort while simultaneously reducing the need for adjustments is extremely appealing. Weight sensing chairs adapt on the fly to ensure a healthy sit while minimizing the ergonomic learning curve. If you're ready to sit superior, the chairs showcased here are a must consider.

Let's start simple, shall we? The most practical weight sensing task chair on the market is the 11322B from Offices To Go. It's easy to use, comfortable, and cost effective. At just $229.99, the 11322B chair from Offices To Go is also the most affordable weight sensing task chair on the market. The thick padded seat, breathable mesh back, and adjustable arms are also nice attributes that ensure long term comfort.

Global offers the largest selection of weight sensing office chairs on the market. We'll show you a few of our favorites today, starting with the Takori. The 6680 model Takori chair is all about performance. This fashionable task chair offers a two tone upholstery that makes it easy to personalize any space. The weight sensing mechanism on this chair is an absolute winner as it's incredibly well made and easy to use. The 6680 Takori chair can be pretty much mastered in less than 30 minutes.

The 6760-8 Spritz chair from Global packs a major ergonomic punch and looks great doing it. This weight sensing chair with a high back design and upholstered headrest is an excellent option for taller chair operators. The 6760-8 can be used effectively on the work floor and in private office interior to encourage healthy sitting habits without the need for constant adjustment.

Global's newest weight sensing office chair is the Sora. It's also our favorite. Sit in it once and it will likely be your favorite too. It's the best office chair under $500.00 and an absolute gem in the workplace. The Sora chair is ultra stylish and equally comfortable. As one of the newest chairs on the market, it's got all the bells and whistles you could ever want.

The LV34GG Living chair from Mayline is responsive in more ways than one. The weight activated seat and articulating back work together to mimic users movements. This "smart chair" from Mayline is high tech and ultra effective.

Any modern office chair shopper on a budget will definitely want to check out the FX2 chair from Eurotech. For starters, the weight activated seat is responsive and supportive. The modern back is contoured and well padded to provide support in all the right areas. This computer chair offers just the right amount of flair without being impractical.

Last but not least is a chair you'll want to pick up while you still can. The Creedence from Woodstock Marketing is currently on clearance for just $329.00. This ergonomically correct mesh chair boasts a weight activated synchro tilt mechanism that moves with you to ensure you're properly supported while computing at your desk. If you want a high performance ergonomic office chair that's up to date with the today's standards, the Creedence has your back... Literally!
