Buyer’s Guide

Proper acquisition of knowledge is always better before buying a product. It helps you in making the right choice and makes you regret less later.

In this section, we would like to point out certain things that you should keep in mind while buying your best first ergonomic office chair.

And if the criteria is to buy a chair that is a pocket-friendly chair, in this case, the budget being under 200 dollars, you should consider these factors.

❖ Material: even though low-budget but the material of the chair matters the most. For one to feel comfortable while sitting on a chair, the material has to be comfortable and airy. Mesh material keeps the air well-ventilated (this shall be discussed in the following points). Hence, always check the material that is comfortable for you before you purchase one.

❖ Ventilation: a well-ventilated chair has a few advantages- (a) it keep you sweat-free, (b) it lets air pass through the air thereby maintaining a cool temperature,(c ) it allows you to work for longer durations, (d) it encourages better blood circulation in the body and maintains body temperature. Reading these benefits, and caring for your health and comfort, it is recommended to buy chairs that have mesh on their seats because the mesh allows passage of air.

❖ Adjustability: an office chair under $200 may not have motor/ electronic adjustable gears for height and tilt adjusting, but it should definitely have the lever system. Any office chair should provide the facility of being able to able to adjust the height of the chair because there are natural height-differences in people and also the height of the desk may vary and adjusting to that requires the chair to offer this facility. Tilt adjusting provides more ease to work and it is a win-win situation if you find a chair with both these features under this budget. So, make sure that whichever chair you buy it offers this gear.

❖ Lumbar support: an ergonomic chair’s basic service is to provide lumbar support irrespective of the price of the product. Lumbar support is essential to support your lower back and reduce pressure on your things and legs. This saves you from incurring any lower back problems and gives you ease and a good body posture. Hence, to save yourself any medical issues, it is wise and recommended to buy chairs that provide lumbar support.

❖ Wheelbase: a strong and sturdy wheelbase is necessary for smooth navigation and also more importantly for the safety of the user from tripping off of the chair. A low budget chair doesn’t require the user or the manufacturer to compromise on the base of the chair and the user’s safety. So it is always wise to check the material of the casters.

❖ Headrest: giving support to your head is as much important as to support to your spine. Hence, chairs with headrests are one of the best buys you can get. The headrest keeps your muscles relaxed and allows you to work for longer hours in a productive manner. Some even provide a headrest pillow for more ease at work.

❖ Swivel base: swivel base allows for easy movement from one corner of your workplace to another. Most chairs under $200 come with swivel bases. It is a basic quality of an office chair. So it is advisable to not buy static chairs and compromise on your comfort.

❖ Safety lock: safety locks are important to avoid any mishap while you are sitting on the chair. While tilt functions are not always available under this budget, few manufacturers succeed in providing that (discussed in the following points). And whether this option is available or not, the safety lock is a must. The safety lock system safeguards you when you adjust the height or the recline and holds the chair in that position until you change it. Therefore, make it an essential in your list for any chair you opt to buy.

❖ Tilt function: in a working setup, the office chairs need to have a tilt mechanism to allow you to stretch yourself while working for such long hours. The tilt function ensures better body relaxation during stressful periods and encourages one to work for even longer durations. Though not all products have been able to include this feature, there are still a good number of manufacturers who provide this feature under this budget as well.

❖ Flexible armrest: some of you might think flexible armrest would seldom be a feature of a chair under $200. But to your surprise, office chairs come with flexible flip-up and down armrests. The benefits of having a flexible armrest can be quite a few- it provides support to your shoulders and arms while working on computers for long hours and prevent and muscle pull or pain in your hands; it also provides you with the option of lifting the armrests to allow free movement of your arms and prevent muscle fatigue. Also, in compact workspaces or in conference rooms, it acts advantageously since it gives you more space to move in and out of the chair.

These are a few important pointers to help you know about what things and facilities that you can avail yourself of under $200.
