Dimensional aspect
Seat width: The body size of obese people is larger, and a wider seat surface is needed to ensure comfort. In general, the width of the seat should not be less than 50 cm, so that the hips and thighs can be fully supported, to avoid the sides of the body being squeezed.
Seat depth: The appropriate seat depth can make the thigh get enough support and reduce leg pressure. For obese people, the depth of the seat is 45-50 cm, ensuring that the thigh has enough space to stretch on the seat and will not hang.
The height and width of the back of the chair: the height of the back of the chair should be high enough, at least to reach the shoulder, and it is best to support the neck, generally about 70-90 cm. The width of the back of the chair should also be increased accordingly, not less than 50 cm, to provide comprehensive back support.
Material aspect
Cushion material: High rebound sponge or memory cotton is the ideal choice. High resilience sponges can quickly deform according to body pressure and temperature, providing good support and comfort; The memory cotton can better fit the curve of the body, disperse the pressure and reduce the burden on all parts of the body.
Back material: can choose good air permeability mesh material or soft leather material. The mesh material has good air permeability, which can keep the back dry and avoid the stuffy feeling of sitting for a long time; The leather is soft, comfortable and easy to clean.
Functional aspect
Adjustable function: Multi-dimensional adjustable function is very important. The seat height is adjustable, allowing users to find the right sitting position according to their height and desk height; The back Angle of the chair can be adjusted to facilitate the user to switch different positions during work and rest, reducing the pressure on the waist; The adjustable armrest provides comfortable support for the arm and relieves shoulder fatigue.
Load-bearing capacity: obese people have high load-bearing requirements for office chairs, so it is recommended to choose an office chair with strong load-bearing capacity, and it is generally recommended to choose products with a bearing capacity of at least 150 kg to ensure the stability and safety of the chair. Some office chairs will also be equipped with enhanced pressure bars and casters to improve the overall load-bearing performance.
Quality and stability
Frame structure: The solid frame structure is the key to ensure the stability of the office chair. High-quality office chairs usually use metal or solid wood frame, metal frame high strength, good toughness, solid wood frame is more environmentally friendly and durable. In the selection, you can gently shake the chair to check whether the frame is stable, there is no loose or abnormal sound.
Casters and base: casters should be selected with a large diameter and wear-resistant material, so as to ensure the flexible movement of the chair, but also to disperse the weight and reduce the pressure on the ground. The base is generally designed with five PAWS or more PAWS, and the contact area between the PAWS and the ground should be large to enhance the stability of the chair and prevent rollover.
Brand and after-sales
After-sales service: Good after-sales service can provide more protection for users. When buying office chairs, pay attention to the brand’s warranty period, return policy, etc. Generally speaking, the quality of products with a warranty period of 3-5 years is more guaranteed, and brands with loose return and exchange policies can make users more assured after purchase.
