Nefil Office Chair

The higher up you get in office life, the less likely you are to take a real lunch break. And office life doesn’t only occur in offices. A strange thing to say I know but even a manager in a residential home is working in an office, so you see what I mean. While computers were to reduce paperwork, I suppose they did reduce the ‘paper’ element but they didn’t reduce the need to fill in forms, hence the need to be comfortable when you’re sitting at your desk.

I love to sit with a straight back but, referring back to that manager in a residential home, or any job where that budget seems to overwhelm you, you can find yourself glued to your seat, tossing figures around in your mind and easily forgetting that you should have gone home hours ago. And that’s when I realised I wasn’t sitting upright anymore but was, at times, sprawling across my desk and suffering the consequent pain.

A good ergonomic office chair will encourage you to sit up properly. It will have all those whizzes and bangs that, when you adjust them to suit your frame, you’ll want to own those changes, to make use of them and, as you’ll find out, to benefit from them.

Relax with an Ergonomic Office Chair like the Nefil Chair
Relax with an Ergonomic Office Chair like the Nefil Chair

Take the Nefil Office Chair model as an example. Coming in a mesh upholstery, it’s a breathable material which is already giving you comfort. With its adjustments of seat height, seat tilt and glide, you can get your perfect sitting position. Have you ever sunk into a sofa that is too low and too squidgy and, though it might feel good as you drop into it, it’s not really a comfortable experience? Well, getting that seat pad of the Nefil just right for you means that you’re guaranteed comfort, that you can enjoy the experience and that coming and going, as office life demands, become second nature actions.

The Nefil ergonomic office chair also has an in-built lumbar support panel which, when you’ve adjusted the seat back to make that lumbar panel meet with your lumbar region, you will be hugging your back and keeping those all-important internal organs in comfortable working order. It seems strange to talk about internal organs when talking about chairs, so think of carrying a bottle of wine in a suitcase, without having first wrapped the bottle in a tee-shirt or two and then fixing it in position inside your suitcase. with more rigid objects. Something’s going to give, isn’t it? While you might b able to replace the bottle of wine the same day, getting the pain out of your body as a result of sitting badly isn’t going to be so quick. So, yes, supporting your lower back really is important, as it goes towards supporting all-round good health.

And when that Nefil ergonomic office chair comes in a super colour of your own choice, it’ll feel just as good as that personally-chosen wine tastes.

The Ergohuman ‘Enjoy’ Does Just That!

The name ‘Enjoy’ for an ergonomic office chair makes you like it straightaway, doesn’t it? Still, we’re inquisitive creatures and would need to know a little more before purchasing, wouldn’t we?

Well, the Enjoy ergonomic office chair is one of the stunning designs offered in the Ergohuman range and I always advise that this is the best place to start looking if you want a seriously effective chair. With autoflex zones which give lumbar support, a single lever for making many of the adjustments (including back height , back tilt and seat slide), three-dimensional arm rest adjustments (height, width and angle) and the option of a headrest, this ergonomic office chair is serious business when it comes to looking after the human frame.

The chair frame is very inviting to look at, the back support giving the impression of a tree and its branches. To me, that has the psychological feeling of growth and that’s something that is needed in the work environment. Gone are the days of chairs designed simply to sit on; today’s chairs have to sell themselves by looking good as well.

The upholstery I would go for is mesh, as it offers so many advantages. It’s breathable and thus helps to keep you cool longer. It’s longer-lasting, as the mesh is tightly-woven. It’s easy to look after, simply needing the occasional wipe over to keep it looking clean and fresh. And, as for colour, you can have straightforward black or blue, or go for a more interesting red, green, orange, burgundy, white or grey. Teamed with a white, black, or silver frame (for me, in that order), you’ve got a nice piece of equipment to help you with your job. It looks good, feels good and so do you!

Mirus Office Chair

The Ergohuman range of office chairs are stunning and, although they are similar but different, you’ll be hard-pushed to choose the one for you. The Mirus is the latest addition and, like many of the other designs, it also boasts the single-lever control, which allows you to adjust the three popular features of seat height, seat depth and back tilt.

The seat height makes the seat available to short, medium and tall users, getting the seat pad in position to allow your feet to touch the floor comfortably. The seat depth complements the seat back’s purpose of addressing height, in that it allows you to make sure that your thighs are fully supported and your knees fold comfortably at the seat pad end. Like in a car, the seat tilt is about feeling right and getting your arms and hands to meet the working area (keyboard or desk as opposed to the steering wheel) at the most effective distance.

The multi-directional neck-roll gets the support just where you need it, as is the case with the 3D lumbar support facility. The seat slide manoeuvre adds the finishing touches.

The Mirus Office Chair is one of the Ergohuman range of office chairs that offer a zero-pressure seat cushion, with the purpose of distributing weight evenly and making sitting feel like a luxurious experience, rather than being simply to take the weight off your feet.

When choosing the frame, you can opt for either black or white with aluminium, or all-black, complemented by the all-aluminium base and five black castors.

Three of the nine models come with a 3D headrest and, in a choice of either fabric or mesh which both come in a range of colours, you really will be hard-pushed for choice.

The Mirus Office Chair is 98 percent recyclable and really does deserve your attention, before making your mind up about which Ergohuman ergonomic chair should be the one to serve your personal needs.

Choosing and Ergonomic Chair

A quality office chair will do wonders for people who spend the maximum time sitting and working on computers or at a office desk. An Ergonomic chair is apt for those people who suffer from leg and chronic problems due to sitting for so many hours together. A chair that makes your posture mechanically correct is appropriate which suggests diminished strain on lower part of your back and less back ache complaints. An office chair apart from offering a comfortable position for working also plays a role in boosting the productivity.

There are some vital things that you need to consider while shopping for an office chair. The first thing on the list is the height of the seat. The adjustment of your office chair should be easy even when you are sitting. A lever should be attached to the chair that adjusts the height if the chair as per your requirement. This will permit you to rest your feet on the ground with legs straight and arms on the desk to make you feel more relaxed.

The next important aspect that is worth considering is the width and the depth of the seat. The chair should be of immense comfort for the users with the seat having enough depth which will enable you to comfortably relax next to the backrest ant at the same time regulate the chair angle. If in case you have a propensity to stoop in the chair then you can easily adjust an ergonomic office chair as per your need and will give support to your lower back. The back support should have a broad backrest which can be easily adjusted while sitting.

The arm rests are not mandatory in an ergonomic office chair but if in case you require them go for arm rests that can be easily adjusted and permits you to set your arms comfortably, at the same time soothing your shoulders. As far as materials of the office chair are concerned there are various materials to select from, but an ergonomic office chair should always be stuffed for more comfort. For those who sit for long duration, the chair should be breathable. Two chairs that tick most of the boxes and is similar to the Herman Miller Aeron Chair are the Ergohuman Chair and the Enjoy Chair

An office chair should enable you to move around liberally and at the same time permit you to have a reach on all the things with least strain. Choosing a chair that suits your needs should not be a tough task with so many outstanding manufacturers providing the best office furniture.

Here are some guides

Determine what options you need or want in an executive chair. Do you really need or want leather, or will a vinyl or cloth chair do just as well. Are you interested in a high back or do you want a more conservative mid-back chair that will work just as well.

Consider your size. If you’re a larger or taller individual, you need a chair with a generous seat. You may also benefit from a chair made especially for taller or bigger people.

Set a budget for your new chair. Believe it or not, an executive leather chair can run from about 100 dollars upwards into the thousands. Set a budget and clear it with your accounting department, then you know what type of executive chair to shop for and in which price range to stay.

Search office chair sites such as simply-ergonomic.co.uk. These specialty sites have a wide range of options in executive chairs and have prices that are super competitive. Be sure to calculate shipping costs into the budget you have set.

Look for an executive chair with a warranty. Most chairs have at least a 1 year warranty, but some have a 3 or 5 year warranty. You may be buying a longer lasting chair when you select the one with the better warranty.

You’d like to splurge on an executive leather chair that you’ve been craving for some time. Now that the business is finally seeing black after crawling out from under the capital investment loan, you might be able to splurge on the leather chair for the executive office. Here’s how to get that executive leather chair without the whole accounting department calling foul.

Computer Workstations

Computer workstation desks come in various sizes. Some are gigantic while others are small. But the more shelves your workstation desks hold the better would be your workstation. Besides primary equipment, it must accommodate printer, scanner, and other important and related equipments. More the shelves more will be the storage area leading to better utilization of workstation. Moreover, wheeled workstation desks are preferred over those without wheels. The biggest advantage of workstation desk is that it uses the available space rational and wisely and hence put your employees in healthier and friendly environment.

Ergonomics for workstations:

  1. Monitors: Monitors should be placed in such a way that it should not affect the eyes and musculoskeletal system adversely. Monitors should be placed at a distance of approx. arm’s length. Brightness and contrast should be set to most favorable point.
  2. Keyboard: Your keyboard should be at around 1 to 2 inches above your thighs. Generally, this requires a desk which is 25 to 29 inches in height (depends upon individuals’ height). It should be close to user to avoid extended reaching.
  3. Mouse: While using mouse your wrist should be in neutral position. Don’t rest the hand on mouse while not using it.
  4. Chair: Chair’s level should match the workstation’s desk level. Chair being used should be comfortable and flexible.

Following are the guidelines concerning computer workstations. These guidelines should not be ignored.

  1. The work surface area should be adequate so as to accommodate computer components and accessories. Moreover, space should be available underneath the work surface area for operator to adjust and make free movement of his legs and feet.
  2. The keyboard and mouse should be positioned in front of the operator at a height that supports neutral posture i.e. 23 to 28 inches. Though different alternatives like adjustable keyboard platform, raising the chair but it is good to have a proper workstation.
  3. The monitor should be placed at a distance of arm’s length and in front of user. The top of the screen not be higher than user’s eye level.
  4. The chair being used should be well designed as it will not only affect posture, movements and stress on back. Make sure that the chair being used has features such as pneumatic seat height adjustment, 360 degree swivel, seat depth adjustment, etc.
  5. Footrest should be used as feet cannot be placed on the floor for long. Moreover, task lamps should be used to illuminate the working area when the room light is switched off or reduced.

It is preferred to go for Workstation desk constructed out of wood as its sturdy construction will last longer.  Some of the best desks are made in Europe to a high standard.  They cost a little more but make up for it
