Buying a chair for office space isn’t an easy task. Each day, we are bombarded by information about different types of office chairs that would be the best for us by retailers and the internet. As opposed to our view of chairs as a ‘one size fits all’ affair, these differences in the sizes or ergonomics or design that many retailers boast of aren’t created to make a chair ‘unique’. These modifications actually act as ancillary features. They help to accommodate people of different statures and serve different purposes. All the buyer has to do is to decipher what these modifications mean and decide upon a chair which will meet his needs.

For the ease of the same, we have compiled a small guide to help you figure out what kind of an office chair will be the best for you.

Different sizes of office chairs:

Broadly, any chair comes in the following three sizes –

Low-Back Chair

Low-Back chairs have backs with short height, seats with narrow width along with a shallow seat pan. Since, these modifications make the chair smaller in size than an average sized chair, these chairs are also named petite chairs.

Mid-Back Chair

Mid-Back chairs usually work for most people. Generally, the mid-back chairs are good fits for everyone and are bought most frequently. Even amongst this particular size, there are many differences when it comes to which ergonomic adjustments are available.

High-Back Chair

Big and tall chairs are designed to offer higher weight capacity to ensure the safety of the seated user. High-Back chairs give roomy comfort, plush support. They have broad backs, wide seats and a deep seat pan.
