Frequently asked questions
What makes an office chair ergonomic?
A useful ergonomic chair lets you align seat height, lumbar support, armrests and backrest position with your body and desk.
Is mesh better for long workdays?
Mesh improves airflow, but the best choice is the chair that fits you and keeps its support comfortable through your normal work session.
Do I need a footrest?
Not always. An integrated footrest is helpful for reclining breaks; for upright work, your feet should be supported by the floor or a separate footrest.
Are #1 and #2 the same chair?
They are separate B300 Pro listings in different finishes/configurations. We keep both because shoppers may find different availability or listing details.
