Chair Essentials for Your Home Office
People who don’t work from home very often enjoy the novelty of putting pajamas on and taking their laptop to the couch, but the less they work out of their office building, the more they realize sofas and dining chairs aren’t comfortable or conducive to their best work long-term.
If you work from home regularly, a quality office chair is a good investment. Office chairs are more versatile than home furniture, offer more support and comfort, and are specifically designed to help people focus on tasks for hours at a time. The right chairs and accessories will make your home office as convenient and functional as any corporate environment.
What Kind of Chair Do You Need?
There are many different types and styles of office chairs on the market. How do you know what kind of chair you need? Let’s take a look at some of the typical options:
- Swivel Chair
If you spend a lot of your workday switching from one task to another, a swivel chair makes life easier. Pivoting from typing on your computer to filling out paperwork on your desk to filing a document is virtually effortless. - Big and Tall Chairs
Manufacturers design most furniture for people of average size, and while some chairs can be adjusted for different heights, they still don’t work for many. If you are more than six feet tall or have a wider frame, you may find that regular office chairs can’t accommodate you. In that case, order a big and tall chair for your home office. These chairs have higher backs, more robust materials, and are capable of supporting people of larger sizes. - Ergonomic Chairs
Home furniture designs tend to prioritize appearance over good posture—something that looks good in your living room isn’t necessarily good for your back. Ergonomic office chairs are the best choice for people concerned about back problems, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other conditions that come with sitting improperly for long periods at a time. These chairs are designed to keep people in a safe, upright position while working at a desk. - Chair Accessories
Once you’ve decided on a chair for your home office, it would be helpful to order some chair accessories too. Footrests keep your legs in a comfortable position while you work. A keyboard tray will hold your hands in a more natural, relaxed position while you type. If you have a carpeted floor, a chair mat can help you move and swivel more easily.
