Ergohuman Office Chairs

I already have my office chair but, if you need to buy one for yourself, I would suggest that you look no further than the Ergohuman range. I have the Nefil office chair, though my colleague swears by the Enjoy office chair model but it really depends on what you’re looking for. One of the points that should affect your decision is your body frame but the nature of your job is also important. What I mean by that second consideration is do you sit down all day long or are you always up and down, does the job involve a lot of twisting (maybe your filing cabinets are right next to you and you don’t have to actually leave your seat to put something away).

For me, the seat tilt and slide and the backrest tilt mean that I can get my back and my bottom to fit comfortably into the Nefil chair, so that I am actually using its magnificent features to support the whole of my back. That means that I am making use of the lumbar support that the chair back gives. My friend likes the Enjoy chair, as it has autoflex zones in the lumbar support feature and this does it for her.

All of the Ergohuman chair models are to die for, as a lot of thinking has gone into their design. They all have many features and adjustments and I suppose the most noticeable difference is the look of the chair. I just love the simple look and the Nefil’s chair back from the rear reminds me of the old-style beer bottle opener. The chair looks good and makes me feel good. With its ribbed look back support, the Enjoy appeals to my friend and that’s fine.

One thing we both agreed on was the choice of fabric. Though the leather is very nice, we much preferred the airiness of the mesh. It’s easy to wipe clean and is a chair that breathes, if you know what I mean.

I’m really pleased that I was guided towards the Ergohuman range of chairs. It was sound advice and that’s why I am passing the same information on. There’s an interesting range of colours to choose from as well. And as regards to that sound advice … don’t forget to pass it on.

The Perfect Office

Imagine you’re sitting in a perfect office: somewhere where you have to go but you’re also pleased to be.  Everyone’s idea will be slightly different, though all will contain the essentials.

A perfect office will be light and inviting.  If there’s a window close to you, the natural light will make the office feel fresh and alive.  If this isn’t happening for you, then you need to invite light into the room.  A standard lamp may add a touch of homeliness and you can also use angle poise lamps, to direct the light to your office desk, making reading easy, particularly on those long winter days when everything seems to be overcast.  Don’t forget that view from the window which I find is very important as I tend to look out into the distance when I’m thinking.  Looking and focusing on things in the distance and adjusting your vision helps your eyes overcome issues related to computer work.  How many hours are you stuck looking at the screen and nothing else?  I try and get my eyes to focus on distant objects every 10 minutes or less.  Maybe it’s beautiful, maybe it’s not, so why not hang a scenic picture on the wall in front of you, or frame a smaller version for your desk:  it might not be a desk toy but it will still make you feel good.

If your office is small, make it feel bigger.  This can be done by using glass office furniture, as the light passing through that beautiful crystal gives an illusion of space.  However, if you’re one of those people that hoards a lot of stuff under your office desk, you’re now going to have to tidy up your act.  This in itself is a good thing, as we are always being told to de-clutter our lives and getting rid of unnecessary paper will again create space.  It will also make work more pleasurable, as you have now become more organised.

So, the place looks bigger, brighter and inviting.  The next step is to get that office chair right.  Right for you, as you’re the one who is going to be sitting in it.  It’s not only the seat pad that is important, although sitting on something soft is better than something that has no flexibility.  You want that best office chair to be supporting you in all the right places.  The lower back of the chair matches your lower back: it’s giving support and taking some of the weight of your upper body off your own frame.  Its adjustable arm rests, its swivel action and its seat pad height mechanism make sitting a more natural action, rather than an expected pose.  While all of this happening, your body is relaxing and encouraging your thoughts to be in the same frame of mind.

For many of us, even the journey to work can be stressful, so the last thing you want is to carry this edginess through the day.  Getting that ergonomic office right for you will reflect itself in the quality of your work and the quantity and that can’t be a bad thing, can it?
