Best Use Cases

  • Office & Desk Chairs are remarkably versatile, making them an essential addition to any Australian home. At During Days, we've seen how these pieces can adapt to diverse settings, solving comfort needs while enhancing your work experience. Let's explore the best ways to use ergonomic chairs, executive chairs, and other styles to maximize both productivity and physical wellbeing.
  • In the home office, an ergonomic chair serves as the foundation of a healthy workspace, ideal for supporting proper posture during long work hours while providing adjustable features that adapt to your body's unique needs. Choose a chair with comprehensive lumbar support to maintain the natural curve of your spine, or opt for a model with adjustable armrests that keep your shoulders relaxed and wrists properly aligned. For those spending 8+ hours at their desk, consider upgrading to a chair with synchronized tilt mechanisms that encourage dynamic sitting, promoting better circulation and reducing fatigue throughout the workday.
  • For executive or professional settings, a premium leather office chair creates an atmosphere of sophistication while offering plush comfort for important calls or meetings. These chairs often feature high backs with integrated headrests, wider seats for unrestricted movement, and premium padding that maintains its shape and support even after years of use. Look for models with polished aluminum bases and genuine leather upholstery to make a statement in client-facing spaces or video conferences.
  • Creative professionals and those who move frequently between tasks benefit from versatile task chairs designed for dynamic work styles. These chairs typically feature smooth-rolling casters, 360-degree swivel capabilities, and lightweight designs that allow for easy movement around your workspace. Upsell to a premium model with breathable mesh backing for temperature regulation during intense work sessions, or choose a chair with a waterfall seat edge that reduces pressure on the backs of your thighs during extended sitting.

Whatever your professional needs, our diverse range of Office & Desk Chairs at During Days is designed to adapt to your work style, making them a wise investment in both productivity and physical health.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. What features should I look for in an ergonomic office chair?

When selecting an ergonomic chair, prioritize adjustable lumbar support that follows your spine's natural curve—this is crucial for preventing back pain during long work sessions. Look for multiple adjustment points: seat height (45-57cm from floor), seat depth (allowing 5-10cm between the seat edge and back of knees), armrest height and width, and backrest tilt. A synchro-tilt mechanism that maintains proper posture as you recline is valuable for dynamic sitting. Consider breathable materials like mesh for temperature regulation, especially in warmer climates. The best ergonomic chairs adapt to your unique body shape, so test multiple adjustment features before purchasing if possible.

2. How do I choose between mesh and leather office chairs?

The choice between mesh and leather office chairs depends on your priorities, environment, and work style. Mesh chairs offer superior breathability, making them ideal for warmer climates or users who feel hot while working. They're typically lighter, more contemporary in appearance, and require less maintenance. Leather chairs (or quality faux leather) provide a premium, executive aesthetic with plush comfort that often improves with age. They offer better insulation in air-conditioned environments and generally have more padding for extended sitting. Consider your office temperature, desired aesthetic, maintenance willingness, and sitting duration when deciding—mesh for breathability and modern looks, leather for classic sophistication and cushioned support.

3. What's the difference between a task chair and an executive chair?

Task chairs and executive chairs serve different purposes and offer distinct features. Task chairs are designed for versatility and movement, typically featuring compact dimensions, basic adjustability, and mid-height backrests. They're ideal for environments where you frequently shift positions or move around your workspace. Executive chairs prioritize status and comfort with high backs, integrated headrests, wider seats, and premium materials like leather. They often include plush padding, sophisticated tilt mechanisms, and polished bases. While task chairs excel for active work styles and smaller spaces, executive chairs create an impression of authority and provide comprehensive support for longer, more stationary work sessions. Choose based on your work style and the image you wish to project.

4. How important is lumbar support in an office chair?

Lumbar support is arguably the most critical feature in any office chair, as it directly impacts spinal health and comfort during extended sitting. The lumbar region (lower back) naturally curves inward, and without proper support, this curve flattens, leading to strain and discomfort. Quality lumbar support maintains this natural curve, reducing pressure on spinal discs and preventing slouched posture that contributes to back pain. Look for adjustable lumbar support that matches your specific spine curvature and height. Some premium chairs offer dynamic lumbar support that adjusts as you move. Investing in proper lumbar support is a preventative health measure that can significantly impact wellbeing and productivity.

5. What's the ideal seat height for an office chair?

The ideal seat height for an office chair should allow your feet to rest flat on the floor with knees at approximately 90-degree angles and thighs parallel to the ground. For most adults, this falls between 45-57cm from the floor, depending on your height and desk dimensions. When seated, you should have about 5-10cm clearance between the front edge of the seat and the backs of your knees. A properly adjusted seat height prevents pressure on the thighs that can restrict circulation and ensures your arms align correctly with your desk. Most quality office chairs offer height adjustment via pneumatic gas lifts—ensure the range accommodates your body dimensions and workspace setup.

6. Are armrests necessary on an office chair?

While not essential for everyone, armrests on an office chair provide significant benefits for most users. Properly adjusted armrests support your arms' weight, reducing strain on shoulders, neck, and upper back during extended computer work. They help maintain proper posture by preventing slouching forward and can reduce the risk of repetitive strain injuries by keeping wrists aligned with keyboards. However, armrests should be adjustable—fixed armrests that are too high force shoulders up, while those too low encourage slouching. Look for 3D or 4D adjustable armrests that modify in height, width, depth, and angle. For those with limited space or who prefer freedom of movement, armless chairs are a viable option.

7. How long should a good office chair last?

A quality office chair should last 7-10 years with proper care, though this varies based on construction, materials, usage patterns, and maintenance. Premium chairs often come with warranties ranging from 5-12 years, reflecting their expected lifespan. Chairs in the $500+ range typically feature replaceable components, higher-grade materials, and robust mechanisms that extend their usable life. Signs that it's time to replace your chair include noticeable compression in seat padding, unstable mechanisms, cylinder issues affecting height adjustment, or failing ergonomic features. Regular maintenance—tightening components, cleaning, and addressing minor issues—can significantly extend your chair's lifespan.

8. What weight capacity should I look for in an office chair?

Standard office chairs typically support between 100-120kg, which accommodates most users. If you require additional support, many manufacturers offer heavy-duty or bariatric options designed for 150-200kg or more. Chairs for higher weights often feature reinforced frames, stronger mechanisms, denser foam, and robust bases and casters. They may also offer wider seats and additional reinforcement in high-stress areas. For comfort and safety, choose a chair with a weight capacity that exceeds your requirements by at least 10-20kg to ensure longevity and optimal performance.

9. Are expensive office chairs worth the investment?

Premium ergonomic chairs in the $500-$2,500 range represent a significant investment, but their value is evident in health benefits and longevity. High-end chairs offer sophisticated ergonomic features—dynamic lumbar support, synchronized tilt mechanisms, and multiple adjustment points that adapt to your physiology. They're constructed with higher-quality materials, often lasting 10+ years compared to 2-3 years for budget options. When amortized over their lifespan, premium chairs can cost less annually than budget alternatives needing frequent replacement. For professionals spending 40+ hours weekly seated, the health benefits—reduced pain, better circulation, improved posture, and enhanced productivity—can outweigh the initial cost.

10. How do I properly adjust my office chair for ergonomics?

Properly adjusting your office chair involves a systematic approach for optimal alignment with your body and desk. Start with seat height—feet should rest flat on the floor with knees at 90 degrees and thighs parallel to the ground. Adjust seat depth to leave 5-10cm between the seat edge and the backs of your knees. Position lumbar support to fill the natural curve in your lower back, typically at belt level. Set armrests to support arms with shoulders relaxed and elbows at 90-110 degrees when typing. Adjust the backrest tilt to support your preferred posture—slightly reclined positions (100-110 degrees) reduce spinal pressure. Revisit these adjustments periodically, especially if discomfort develops.

11. What's the difference between synchro-tilt and knee-tilt mechanisms?

Tilt mechanisms impact how an office chair moves with your body. Synchro-tilt mechanisms, found in many premium ergonomic chairs, allow the seat and backrest to move in a synchronized ratio (typically 1:2 or 1:3), with the backrest reclining at a greater angle than the seat tilts. This maintains proper posture, keeping feet on the floor and ensuring consistent support. Knee-tilt mechanisms pivot near the front edge of the seat, creating a natural reclining motion that prevents the "shirt-pull" effect of basic tilt mechanisms. Basic center-tilt mechanisms, common in budget chairs, can cause knees to rise when reclining. Synchro-tilt often offers the best combination of ergonomic support and natural movement.

12. How do I clean and maintain different types of office chairs?

Proper maintenance extends the life of your office chair. For mesh chairs, vacuum regularly with a soft brush attachment and spot clean with mild soap and water for stains, allowing to air dry. Leather chairs (genuine or faux) should be dusted weekly and cleaned with appropriate leather cleaner every 3-6 months; apply conditioner to genuine leather to prevent drying. Fabric upholstery benefits from regular vacuuming and periodic deep cleaning with suitable upholstery cleaner. For all chair types, tighten screws quarterly, lubricate moving parts annually, and check casters for debris. Replace worn components when possible. Follow the manufacturer's care instructions for your chair's materials to keep it comfortable and functional.
