15 best computer chairs

*Overview of the best according to the editors of Healthy Food Near Me. About selection criteria. This material is subjective, is not an advertisement and does not serve as a guide to the purchase. Before buying, you need to consult with a specialist.

When it comes to the dangers of long hours of work at the computer, most people associate this problem with vision and the quality of the monitor. However, no less important issues are maintaining posture, preventing diseases of the spine, minimizing harm from physical inactivity, and so on. In this, most of the tasks fall on a computer chair, and its choice must be approached with all responsibility.

The editors of Simplerule magazine have prepared for you an overview with descriptions of the best of the range of computer chairs in 2019. Our experts have compiled thematic selections of armchairs for office equipment, gaming chairs, and a separate age category is highlighted – children’s and teenage chairs.

How to choose the right computer chair

Like almost any other product, computer chairs have characteristics that can be neglected, and there are those that must be considered without fail before buying. It is these points that we will clarify as part of the recommendations of our experts on choosing a model.

Back, seat, ergonomics

The characteristics of the back and seat of a computer chair are the most important parameters that will directly affect not only the convenience of work, but also how much time you can spend at the computer without noticeable discomfort.

1. In the back, its shape is important – the more anatomical, the better. This means that the backrest must have the “correct” points of contact with the back of the operator. The correct form prevents circulatory disorders and subsequent problems. It is also very important to have a bend in the area of ​​​​the proposed lower back, which repeats the natural bend of the spine in shape.

2. The role of the seat here seems to be secondary, but by no means – the convenience of work and the ability to relax without interrupting work or play will directly depend on its depth. The shape of the seat is also important – there should be no areas of increased pressure on areas of the body that can lead to circulatory disorders.

3. A significant role in the convenience of a computer chair and its safety for health in the long term can be played by auxiliary accessories and structural elements, which may not exist in the minimum configuration. These are armrests, a lumbar pillow (emphasis), a headrest. The presence of such accessories is highly desirable, especially for armrests, but only in the case of chairs for adults, since armrests are strictly contraindicated in child seats. “Exotic” accessories like a coffee stand are already a matter of personal choice.

Devices

Computer chairs necessarily have adjustment mechanisms that allow you to adjust the chair as much as possible to the anatomical features of the user. At a minimum, such a chair should be adjustable in height. You can most often adjust other parts of the chair, the optimal position of which depends on the anatomy of the operator – armrests in different directions, the height of the backrest (rarely), the rigidity of the rocking mechanism. Sometimes even the depth of the seat can be adjustable, but there are not too many such models on sale.

The mere presence of these mechanisms does not guarantee maximum convenience. Here, the quality of the materials of the mechanisms and their durability are extremely important. So, for example, many inexpensive office chairs with screw fixation of the back position lose this ability in a matter of months due to the rapid wear of the mechanism. In this matter, it makes sense to study the experience of predecessors in real reviews.

Cross

This detail of the design of an office chair is no longer as critical as the previous ones, but it should not be ignored either. The diameter of the cross is important – the larger it is, the more stable the chair. This is important for gamers who, in the heat of battle, can make sudden involuntary movements of the body, risking tipping over along with the chair.

The material of the crosspiece can be plastic, metal or wood. And here the question is more of aesthetics than reliability. In terms of resistance to typical loads, a plastic cross may not be inferior to a metal one, and in a wooden one, wood is used only for decoration – there is still a metal frame inside. Nevertheless, it is advisable to study the reviews of real users before buying – in some models, the strength of the cross is the weakest point of the chair.

Upholstery

This detail of a computer chair is often paid attention only from the point of view of aesthetics, ignoring the practical side of the issue. Typical and most commonly used upholstery materials: furniture textiles, microfiber, eco-leather, natural leather, aero mesh. The properties of all these materials are dramatically different and directly affect the comfort, practicality and durability of the chair.

1. Furniture textiles have no equal in terms of “breathing” properties. Contact of exposed areas of the body with such upholstery does not cause discomfort, a feeling of cold or profuse sweating. Microfiber has the same benefits, plus a pleasant tactile feel. One huge disadvantage of such upholstery is that it is almost impossible to clean it effectively. Spilled coffee, food stains, accumulated dust – all this will quickly make the appearance of the chair sloppy.

2. Genuine leather – has huge advantages over textiles in terms of ease of care, and hence the duration of the preservation of the original appearance. On the other hand, there is also a minus – although the skin “breathes”, it is far from being as intense as fabric upholstery, so the problem of accumulated sweat remains. Manufacturers partially get out of the situation by perforating the skin, but this, as a rule, is not enough for complete comfort. Finally, computer chairs with leather upholstery, other things being equal, are the most expensive.

3. “Eco-leather” is a purely marketing term, which hides a banal synthetic leatherette. Most often, polyurethane is used for the production of such upholstery. Quite, by the way, is a good material, not easily soiled, easy to care for, pleasant for tactile contact and having the maximum resemblance to genuine leather. However, such a coating is much easier to accidentally damage – scratch, cut, tear.

4. Finally, aero mesh is a material that ideally removes evaporation from the body. As a rule, an aero mesh is used to design areas that experience the most intense contact with the body in easily sweating areas.

Rollers

And at the end of the recommendations for choosing – a part of a computer chair, which will not directly affect your comfort and health in any way, but it significantly affects the “health” of the flooring.

Rollers for computer chairs are made from various polymers or metal. Ideal if the rollers have a rubber or rubberized outer surface regardless of the base material. Hard plastic and metal in the rollers “kill” the varnished surface of the parquet in a matter of days, and in a slightly longer term make the laminate unsightly.

A compromise option that manufacturers offer most often is nylon rollers. To the touch, they treacherously resemble hard plastic, but still damage the surface much less.

Rating of the best computer chairs

The best gaming computer chairs

In the first selection, Simplerule experts offer to look at four examples of gaming computer chairs, mostly in the middle price category. All samples have armrests, adjustable headrests, and lumbar support pillows.

Vertagear S-Line SL4000

Rating: 4.9

First in the gaming selection, consider the computer chair of the American brand Vertagear. The company manufactures its products in China, but with strict quality control and under the supervision of office representatives.

In this model, the appearance itself is already impressive – the chair is massive, solid, looks expensive. Operator weight limit is 150kg. The dimensions are as follows: total height – up to 130cm; seat width – 52cm, depth – 45cm, height range – from 42 to 52cm from the floor; the top of the back is at the level of 78cm. The chair weighs 25kg.

The main upholstery material is high-quality “eco-leather”. In the design of the composite upholstery of the back, in the places of the closest contact with the body of the operator, a special complex material is used, which provides intensive removal of fumes. The materials are of high quality, the assembly is neat – fully adequate to the price of a middle-class chair.

This model provides all the most popular options: built-in rocking mechanism; it is possible to adjust the position of the armrests in four directions, including the distance between them. You can expand the chair only up to an angle of 140 degrees, and this is a small minus of the model.

The product is delivered unassembled in a package. You can assemble it yourself alone without any difficulty.

DXRacer Drifting OH/DF73

Rating: 4.8

Now consider the gaming computer chair, which Simplerule experts could not ignore, if only because of the famous brand. This is a representative of a bright and original series of chairs for DXRacer cyber-racers. Due to the powerful promotional campaign among streamers and vloggers, the DXSeat and DXRacer chairs have become to some extent an element of prestige.

The dimensions of the chair are as follows: full height – 125-135cm; seats – 52 and 53cm width and depth, 41-51cm height; the top of the back at the level of 84cm.

The artistic performance of the chair is well known to any gamer – a design in the style of “Ricara”. From ergonomics, there is lateral back support, neck support, lumbar support. Weight without packaging – 22kg, with packaging – 26kg.

The entire Drifting series is actually an extended modification of the super popular Formula series. They are, on average, better than any other office chair able to support the back along the length of the entire spine from the pelvis. The backrest tilt can be changed from 90 to 135 degrees. There is a rather significant restriction on the maximum weight of the operator – up to 90kg; maximum height – 185cm.

The main upholstery material is leather-look vinyl. The sturdy steel frame in the design of the chair is complemented by a durable aluminum alloy cross. The rollers are made of polyurethane and are semi-soft.

Of the elements of ergonomics, this model has an adjustable headrest, adjustable armrests (horizontally and heightwise). The built-in swing mechanism allows you to fix any position in the swing. Seat depth and backrest height adjustable.

As part of this series, computer chairs are produced in three additional colors to the main black theme: white, gray and brown. Manufacture guarantee – 12 months.

ThunderX3 TGC31

Rating: 4.7

Another chair highly rated by Simplerule experts is from the ThunderX3 series, manufactured by AeroCool Advanced Technologies. This model is one of the best combinations of quality and relatively affordable price in this segment of equipment and accessories for gamers.

The height of the chair is 135-143 cm, the corresponding seat height is 56-64 cm, the width and depth are 56 and 54 cm, respectively. Back height – 79cm. The maximum allowable weight load is 150kg. The weight of the product itself with packaging is 16.15 kg. The most important detail – the gas cartridge – here belongs to the highest fourth class.

The main upholstery material of the chair is black eco-leather with a matte surface. The filler is polyurethane RIM. The density of the filler in the backrest is 45, in the seat – 50. The material of the main load-bearing elements is solid steel. The 35 cm crosspiece is also made of metal. Wheels 60mm in diameter, semi-soft type, nylon.

Even in this chair, the possibilities for adjustment and customization are pleasing – all key elements can be adjusted in position. The course of the rocking mechanism (the widespread “Butterfly”) is 3-18 degrees. You can even adjust the stiffness and fix the back in any position. Pillows for the lower back and head/neck are available. An important advantage of this model is the ability to decompose 180 degrees, turning into an impromptu couch for relaxation.

This is not the most expensive chair in the gaming selection, and the price is almost the same as the famous DXRacer. However, if we take into account all the advantages, take into account the materials used, the care of the assembly and the durability, which can be judged in part from the reviews, this cost is more than justified.

DXRacer King OH/KS06

Rating: 4.6

At the end of the selection of the four best, according to Simplerule experts, computer chairs for gamers, we suggest paying attention to another DXRacer model. This is the “king” of the entire series, which is clearly hinted at by the word “King” in the nomenclature. With some reservations, this chair can be attributed to the premium class for a number of important parameters.

Last but not least, the royal title was awarded for the ability to withstand a really big, in every sense, person – up to 180kg. In linear dimensions, it is also noticeable that the model is designed for a large physique: the width of the seat is increased to 58 cm, the depth is also more than average – 57 cm. Seat height adjustment – from 38 to 46cm. The total height of the chair is up to 131cm, weight is 25kg.

This model largely repeats the key advantages of another computer chair – GT Comfort GTC 500 of the same DXRacer series with a nice bonus in the form of massiveness and impressive appearance. 3-inch semi-soft rollers made of a special polymer – according to the manufacturer, they do not pose a threat to the safety of the floor, but it will still be useful to study the reviews before ordering.

The functionality of the chair includes all the most popular positions and adjustments, including a multi-block rocking mechanism with fixation and stiffness adjustment. As for the gas lift, here the manufacturers decided to pay more attention to durability and safety – the chair is equipped with a German-made gas lift that meets the highest European standards.

The base color of the computer chairs of this model range is black. Design artifacts can be of the following colors: white, black, orange, red, green, blue.

The delivery set includes separately: backrest, seat assembly with armrests, gas lift cartridge with a decorative overlay, cross with five overlays, rolling mechanism, lumbar support, neck pillow, wheels – 5 pieces, instructions, assembly key, spare bolt. The standard bolts from the factory are already baited in those holes where fastening is supposed.

The best office computer chairs

In the second selection of the best computer chairs, Simplerule experts offer six interesting models that are optimal for working use in the office. Here, the experts were guided, in addition to convenience, also by considerations of reliability and durability – given the much more intensive use and not too careful attitude.

Kulik System Business

Rating: 4.9

The first in this collection, and probably the most noticeable solution, is the Business chair from the specialized brand Kulik System. There are serious discrepancies in the network about the origin of the trademark – there are versions about Italian or even Ukrainian roots. In fact, the Kulik System is the brainchild of Eugeniusz Kulik, a Polish chiropractor. For obvious reasons, the main advantage of most of the chairs of this brand is the emphasis on orthopedic properties.

The armchair has an expressive and sophisticated design, the quality of the materials does not raise any doubts even at a cursory examination, and for quite objective reasons it demonstrates a confident premium class. An important feature is the ability to choose both upholstery material and shade. From materials it can be high-quality eco-leather, special fabric or even genuine leather – all this can be multiplied by four colors – white, black, gray and brown.

The chair is quite massive – 25kg, seat with adjustable depth 50cm wide and 45-50cm deep. Full size in height – 133-149cm, one back – 68cm. The bearing capacity of the frame in total gives the chair the ability to withstand an operator weighing up to 130 kg.

The developers paid special attention to the cross – it is made of an alloy with increased strength characteristics, the outer surface is glossy polished.

As for customization, in this case we have even more room for customization than even the above gaming samples. So, for example, here you can move the backrest up and down and fix the position, change the depth of the seat (a rarity for office chairs). The rocking mechanism is asynchronous (the angle between the seat and the back is not fixed), it allows you to adjust the rigidity.

The presence of a head restraint in this model is an option, and when ordering for its presence in the kit, you must indicate separately or carefully look at the configuration of a particular heading.

C2W Channel Co

Rating: 4.8

Now consider a successful office solution from a domestic manufacturer. The C2W brand stands for a modest formulation – Chairs To Work. In addition to its own production facilities directly in the Russian Federation, the company also supplies products from abroad.

The Channel Co model is a distinct executive class, designed for a larger manager than a simple manager. But this, of course, is a convention. The classic design with all the paraphernalia of aristocratic antiques is also suitable for equipping a home office in the same style. The armchair is massive, impressive, with double diagonal stitching. French classics of the 60s of the last century are harmoniously complemented by elements of modern style.

The “carrying capacity” of this model is limited to 120 kilograms. When choosing through the distributors online store or directly from the manufacturer, you can choose from a range of upholstery options – natural or artificial leather, special fabric and other materials in different shades: brown, white, beige, black. Manufacturers themselves unobtrusively recommend choosing eco-leather for its breathability (more than 50 ml per sq. cm) in combination with an attractive appearance, indistinguishable from genuine leather.

When choosing this model, be sure to take into account the fact that there are not many opportunities for customizing the chair for individual anatomical features. With a seat size of 44x50cm and a vertical backrest of 64cm, neither can be adjusted. You can only change the position of the seat from the floor within the limits of 44 to 57cm (hence the total height of 108-121cm). The seat is equipped with a very lush cushion, which can be easily lifted to remove accumulated dust. Rocking block Multiblock – with a fixed angle between the back and seat, but with the ability to adjust the rigidity.

At the selection stage, the buyer is given the opportunity to specify the shape of the cross, which will be equipped with the chair. The material of any of them will be a high-strength metal alloy. The wheels are chrome-plated, but only in those parts that do not come into contact with the floor. The worktops are covered with soft enough polyurethane, which does not damage the flooring.

For natural reasons, it is difficult to provide wide opportunities in terms of adjustment and adjustment of ergonomic elements in a chair of this type. Therefore, some restrictions in this regard should not be considered a serious drawback.

Kulik System Elegance

Rating: 4.7

Another armchair manufactured by Evgeniusz Kulik, which was highly appreciated by Simplerule specialists, is the Elegance model. There are some common points with the Business model described at the beginning of the compilation, but due to some relaxations in terms of technical requirements, a less distinct orthopedic function and general optimization, the manufacturer managed to reduce the final cost by almost two times.

The resistance to constant workload is identical to the reviewed C2W chair – up to 120kg. The chair itself weighs 24kg net. Seat width – 42cm, depth can be adjusted from 43 to 48cm. The vertical size of the backrest is 59cm, the chairs as a whole are from 117 to 133cm.

As in the business model, here a potential buyer can choose three upholstery options – fabric, leather, leatherette; and six shades of finishes, among which there are expressive red-white and even pink.

As for individual adjustment, quite a lot can be adjusted here: the horizontal size of the seat in depth, the vertical position of the backrest and its inclination, the position of the armrests up and down. Even the rocking mechanism here is asynchronous, in which the angle between the back and the seat can change. Of course, the rocking stiffness and seat height are adjustable.

The crosspiece here is practically an analogue of the Kulik System Business – the same durable alloy, the same mirror polishing. Semi-soft polymer wheels. A headrest may also be included, but this is an option and must be specified separately when ordering.

Metta Samurai S-3

Rating: 4.6

Let’s turn to the Russian manufacturer again and consider an interesting development of the Metta trademark – the Samurai S-3 chair. Our experts noted this chair for a somewhat non-standard, but overall very successful approach to ergonomics.

The first thing that makes this model significantly different from most other office chairs is that, by definition, there is no filler either in the back or in the seat. But from this the chair does not necessarily become a hard chair – you can always order additional covers specially created for this model. They can be different in terms of softness, but are made of a special material – perforated genuine leather with nylon reinforcing threads. Without such a cover, the surface of the back and seat is a strong mesh material reinforced with aramid fibers.

In terms of maximum safe working load, this model is no different from the previous one – up to 120kg. The dimensions of the seat are 52×54 cm, the height of its position is from 49 to 59 cm, the height of the chair assembly is from 123 to 131 cm.

Customization options are available already at the selection stage – you can choose a configuration with or without a headrest. Adjustable armrests in three directions and the rocking mechanism – stiffness and center of gravity. If the configuration with a headrest is selected, then its position can also be changed in height and angle of inclination.

All metal elements of the chair, which are in plain sight, are covered with chrome with a mirror finish. The size of the wheels is 60mm, the material is a soft polymer, and in general, their quietness and durability are highly appreciated by users and our experts. The wheels are equipped with wheel chocks to prevent arbitrary movement of the empty chair.

The company gives a whole 10-year warranty on the supporting frame and reinforced mesh material of the back and seat. This is a serious advantage, but in relation to this model it is advisable not to create high expectations regarding the build quality. Some flaws may be present, but ergonomics and durability are not affected in any way.

Chairman 668 LT

Rating: 4.5

Now let’s take a look at the armchair that our experts have proposed as the optimal solution for those who want to get the maximum visual representativeness and sufficient practicality at the lowest possible price. Model 668 LT is produced by the Taipit Group of Companies as part of a large series of upholstered furniture Chairman (English – Chairman).

In terms of expressiveness of design, this chair is quite neutral – it is equally suitable for the head of an organization in an office with a democratic interior, and for an ordinary manager. The upholstery is a good and pleasant to the touch leatherette, the filler is ordinary foam rubber. This is a minus for durability, but given the affordable price, it is quite acceptable. The color of the upholstery can be 4 shades – beige, brown, gray or pure black. The material of the cross is plastic.

The dimensions of the chair are more or less standard: seat width – 53 cm, depth – 46 cm, height adjustable from 51 to 61 cm; back height – 56cm; the total height of the chair is up to 117cm; net weight – 17.5kg. Guaranteed to withstand weight up to 120kg.

The possibilities for individual adjustment are very limited here for the sake of minimizing the price. You can only adjust the height. The armrests are not adjustable, but very comfortable in themselves – a soft pad on a metal base. Also, the developers left an important element of comfort, which is not used so often, but its presence is highly desirable for an express vacation – a rocking mechanism with a stiffness setting.

Bureaucrat KB-8

Rating: 4.4

The final item in the selection of the best office computer chairs according to Simplerule magazine is another development of a domestic manufacturer. The trademark with the bold name “Bureaucrat” belongs to MERLION. In addition to office furniture, the company also produces a wide range of stationery, office equipment and even digital equipment. Most of the products are manufactured in Southeast Asia, and some are produced on our own assembly lines in the Moscow region.

This model has some similarities with the Samurai S-3 chair discussed above. Basically, this similarity is manifested in the fact that the backrest does not use upholstery with filler (except for the headrest), and the contact surface is a strong mesh fabric. The seat is already more impressive, but also without the typical polyurethane foam as a filler.

The physical parameters of the model are as follows: maximum load – 120kg; seat width – 53cm, depth – 48cm, height – from 46 to 56cm; back height – 74 cm; chair height – up to 130cm. Four basic shades are offered: red, blue, black, gray. Of the ergonomic elements, there is a headrest, armrests with a plastic surface, a spring-screw swing mechanism, but only for the backrest. Adjustment of rigidity of swing – is.

The KB-8 model has been produced for more than a year, but in 2019 the manufacturer made some adjustments to the design. The updated version received a more elaborate bend in terms of human anatomy – the lumbar part is more pronounced. The headrest has also been increased in width for a more comfortable position not only for work, but also for relaxation. The shape of the seat has been changed – rounding in the front should prevent discomfort in the popliteal area during long-term continuous work.

These improvements are a big plus, but here our experts highlight some of the strangeness of the company’s policy. The official position states that when purchasing a batch of such chairs in one delivery, there may be different modifications, and this fact cannot serve as a basis for a return or replacement.

The best computer chairs for kids and teens

To wrap up our review of the best computer chairs of 2019 by Simplerule magazine, we’ll take a look at a selection of five models that are specifically designed for children and teens. Here, not only and not so much the size is taken into account, but the compliance with the requirements and standards, which in relation to goods for children are increased by definition. So, for example, the absence of armrests in some models is not a drawback, but only compliance with the requirements of specialists regarding safety for posture and the health of a growing organism as a whole.

Kulik System Trio

Rating: 4.9

And again, we turn to the outstanding samples of perhaps the most ideological manufacturer of orthopedic furniture – the enterprise of Evgeniusz Kulik. And here everything is even more interesting than in the case of the two previous described computer office chairs.

The Trio armchair is designed for both children and teenagers – there are armrests here. The lion’s share of the attention and diligence of the developers was aimed at making a youthful computer chair that would not only not harm posture, but, on the contrary, would contribute to normal development. The smallest details have been worked out in the forms of surfaces, bends and stops to minimize stress in the neck area, support the lower back, relieve the coccyx from the load. There is even a longitudinal recess in the seat for unhindered air exchange.

The chair is designed for a maximum load of 80 kg – such a large margin is provided for many reasons, including safety. Seat dimensions – 42x37cm, vertical backrest – 52cm, total chair height – up to 117cm, net weight – 23kg.

Three options for upholstery material are offered: genuine leather, special fabric, polymer leatherette. The latter causes claims from some users in terms of durability, but there is a significant subjective factor here. The offered colors can be monochromatic – beige, blue, pink; or composite – orange-blue, orange-beige or green-red.

The filler of the soft parts of the chair is a high-quality one-piece cast elastomer with a cellular structure. It easily withstands up to 1 million contacts without visible signs of deformation. Actually, partly for this reason, it is this material that is widely used in the aircraft and automotive industries.

The base of the chair deserves special praise. There is not only a durable metal cross with a mirror surface, but also a comfortable circular footrest. The stand is optional and needs to be confirmed.

As for the adjustment, the Trio chair allows you to adjust the height of the seat and backrest separately, change its angle, change the height of the armrests. Seat depth is fixed.

MEALUX Nobel

Rating: 4.8

Now let’s consider a computer chair, which our experts have identified from the whole variety of the market, focusing on the youngest audience – from 3 years old. This is a MEALUX Nobel model. The origin of the brand is not so important, it is important that the products are made in Taiwan and are noticeably distinguished by high quality, increased safety, and impeccable detail.

In this model, the maximum load indicated by the manufacturer may cause some confusion. Here it is equal to 100kg, which is 20kg more than the teenage model described above. The fact is that the manufacturer positions this chair also for children and teenagers, and the range of recommended ages indicates close to universal – from 3 to 18 years. Such a wide applicability is also indicated by the range of seat height adjustment – from 28 to 55 cm. However, although unobtrusive, but clearly childish design style, dimensions and lack of armrests make the chair not the most convenient for older boys, this must be taken into account when choosing.

The key technical parameters of the chair are as follows: height-adjustable backrest measuring 40x42cm, seat measuring 40x42cm adjustable in depth from 32 to 40cm. The cross is asymmetrical, semi-soft nylon wheels are equipped with automatic stoppers to limit travel. The stopper can be disabled. The upholstery material can only be a special fabric, but a lot of colors are offered, including plain ones and decorated with multi-colored circles in a chaotic manner.

TCT Nanotec KIDS CHAIR

Rating: 4.7

Another Taiwan-made computer chair for children is a model with the direct and direct name KIDS CHAIR. Since 1962, TCT Nanotec has been producing children’s furniture for education and everyday life – armchairs, desks, shelves, cabinets, accessories. Products are highly marked by many certificates and diplomas.

The maximum permissible load here, as in the previous model, is by no means childish – up to 100 kg. The seat height is adjustable from 45 to 58 cm, the entire chair, respectively, from 82 to 98 cm. The seat depth can be changed from 37 to 42 cm. The backrest height is also adjustable. There is a circular footrest made of durable plastic – located at a level of 25 cm from the floor, if desired, it can be easily removed. The crosspiece is made of the same material.

As an upholstery for the chair, the manufacturer uses a special fabric with a hydrophobic coating – the surface is easy to clean, and it is not too susceptible to absorbing “colored” liquids. There are three options for upholstery colors – blue, pink, green.

TCT Nanotec DUO

Rating: 4.6

And one more children’s computer chair from the Taiwanese company TCT Nanotec was highly appreciated by Simpleule specialists for the original idea of ​​​​the back design and, in general, the same high technical and ergonomic characteristics as in the above described version. The only upsetting moment is the inexplicably high price of the chair. But this is actually the only obvious drawback.

When it comes to materials, the DUO chair is at the same high level as in all other products of the company. The frame is strong – it can withstand up to 100kg of weight, but the manufacturer still recommends a maximum weight of 80kg. The optimal height varies from 100 cm to the height of an adult.

Here, too, there is a footrest, but not circular, but frontal, and it can also be removed if it is not needed. The metal frame is painted white, textile upholstery is available in six shades: blue, pink, green, blue, turquoise, coral. The wheels are equipped with a switchable rotation lock.

The most interesting design solution in this model is the double backrest. It really consists of two completely separate parts – the section goes vertically. This solution is designed to provide equally reliable holding of the body, regardless of the direction of inclination. This greatly adds to the comfort and helps to maintain the correct posture.

The DUO armchair is equally well suited for both regular desks and “growing” study desks.

TetChair CH 413 baby

Rating: 4.5

At the end of the review of the best computer chairs of 2019 according to Simplerule, let’s consider a kind of price counterbalance to the previous model – an inexpensive, but very good chair from a well-known furniture supplier from Southeast Asia to the Russian market – TetChair.

The design of the chair is elementary – a seat 44x45cm with exactly the same range of height adjustment; backrest height 46cm; the total height of the chair is from 89 to 101 cm. Load limit – 100kg. The crosspiece is plastic, there are armrests, also plastic. Seat and back with filler, fabric upholstery with a variety of colors and patterns: anchors, geographical maps, butterflies, etc.

Also in this model a simple rocking mechanism is provided, but only for the back. There is an adjustment of the rocking stiffness. Seat depth, backrest height, armrests are fixed.

As for the cheapest children’s computer chair, this model pleasantly surprises with quite decent quality of materials and workmanship. The only negative is that there are no pronounced orthopedic properties. TetChair CH 413 is just a miniature child seat, comfortable and durable, but nothing more. However, in this price category on free sale, if it has competitors, then it is not superior in anything significant.

Attention! This material is subjective, is not an advertisement and does not serve as a guide to the purchase. Before buying, you need to consult with a specialist.
