Healthy Food Near Me talks about the best school chairs available in 2022.

Top 10 rating according to KP

Editor’s Choice

1. TetChair Kiddy (from 3000 rubles)

Bright and stylish chair for schoolchildren. In the contours, retroforms are guessed, which are so relevant in 2022. In addition, the manufacturers have chosen very beautiful colors. On the one hand, they are bright, but at the same time very pleasing to the eye. Such a chair can be a wonderful bright spot in a schoolboy’s room – note the passionate design.

Pay attention to the local cross. Under it is a metal rim. Additional wheels are fixed on it, and there are six of them in total. This guarantees maximum stability. The back is also interesting. In this model, it is not fabric, like most chairs, but plastic. The assembly is quite simple, but to combine the individual parts, you need to make an effort. And if something doesn’t add up, don’t worry. You just need to press harder, according to custom.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 100 kg, plastic cross, gas lift, footrest.

2. Nowy Styl Ministyle (from 2400 rubles)

First of all, this chair attracts attention with a variety of prints on the upholstery. There are girly colors with flowers and princesses, neutral ones like cartoon dinosaurs or owls, and of course guys racing. You can just take a single color. Soft in this chair is not only the seat, but also the back. They are ergonomically slightly concave for comfortable seating.

But there are no armrests here. The manufacturer motivates this by the desire to instill in the child the ability to keep his back straight. You can adjust both the height of the seat and the back. This is important because it will allow you to adjust the furniture for your child and has a certain margin for what is called growth. Moreover, the back extends upward and deeper. Please note that in stores there is a model with different rollers. Some for hard surfaces like laminate or linoleum, others for carpets.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 80 kg, plastic cross, gas lift.

3. Bureaucrat CH-797 (from 3600 rubles)

A classic office chair that is suitable for any student, with the exception of perhaps first graders. Such models serve regularly up to five years. Then the mechanisms loosen, the previous fixation disappears. However, this is a fairly profitable investment for such money for such a period. Below is a classic five-pointed cross – according to the number of wheels. The lever under the seat adjusts the height. There is a swing mechanism so that you can lean back and unload your back.

The seat is covered with absorbent fabric. Such textiles absorb moisture and allow air to pass through. In stores you can find a large number of colors: from monotone colors to patterned fabrics. The main complaints about the mesh attachment in this model. It seems to be fixed with both rubber and furniture staples. But the rubber keeps breaking out. It can be corrected, but over time it will still lead to stretching of the mesh on the back.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 120 kg, with armrests, plastic cross, gas lift, rocking mechanism.

What other school chairs are worth paying attention to

4. Bureaucrat KD-2 (from 7800 rubles)

In the picture, this chair looks compact. Slightly only confuses an unusual form for us, adults. The crosspiece is not under the seat, but bulges forward. Be prepared that in real life this chair for schoolchildren is more bulky. The seat height and backrest depth are adjustable here in an unusual way. All on separate mechanisms. The setting is fixed: it cannot be set at any distance, only by rearranging the mechanism in special grooves.

The seat moves not only up and down, but also back and forth on the platform. However, this does not affect the comfort of sitting. As we already wrote, the chair is quite large. The manufacturer calls this a reinforced design. The back is stiff and slightly curved forward to support the lower back. Inside, the soft parts are stuffed with molded polyurethane foam. Formally, it is plastic, but it looks and feels like an elastic polyurethane foam.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 100 kg, plastic cross.

5. Kulik System Fly (from 37 thousand rubles)

In our ratings and reviews, we always strive to acquaint readers with the full range of products in the selected category. The rating of the best chairs for schoolchildren was no exception. We want to talk about a very expensive and worthy model. Outwardly, it looks futuristic: something between an 80s movie spaceship seat and a racing seat.

The manufacturer focuses not only on design, but also on ergonomics of the design. There is a headrest and a protruding part in the lumbar region. There is a recess on the seat to control the position of the pelvis. Elastomer inside. This is a soft filler that holds its shape very well. This is often used in business class seats. Buyers note that even after several years of operation, the parts do not creak or loosen.

Features

Upholstery in a combination of textile and artificial leather, up to 80 kg, metal cross, gas lift, footrest.

6. RIFFORMA Comfort-33 (from 12 thousand rubles)

These chairs are called “growing” because they seem to grow with the child. Suitable for children from 100 years old up to middle school age. Permissible height from 175 to XNUMX centimeters. A good margin for the weight of the seated.

There is no usual and recommended by orthopedists footrest. The fact is that the design is such that the chair can be lowered literally to the floor. For the legs there is a special recess in the crosspiece, so the student on the chair in any case will reach the fulcrum.

The back and seat have a special relief in order to be as useful as possible for posture. The wheels can be locked to prevent the child from rolling. All elements of the chair are slightly rounded. This is important for safety: what if a child stumbles upon a sharp detail during an awkward game? Here the risk is minimized.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 110 kg.

7. Moll Maximo (from 46 thousand rubles)

Another expensive chair for schoolchildren. They make furniture exclusively for children. The factory is located in Germany. Over 40 colors are available for sale. Not only the shade of the upholstery differs, but also the base. There is gray and white. The manufacturer suggests choosing the color of the plastic to match the color of the desk. However, these are all design issues. Let’s go directly to the characteristics. The manufacturer promises that the back and seat are designed for children from three years old.

Five-beam supports are the standard for any modern chair, and not just the best chairs for schoolchildren. But there is a nuance in the design. This base is made of steel for greater reliability. It is not very convenient to use it as a stand. The manufacturer offers to purchase a separate shelf for legs. The backrest is adjustable in height. To ensure that the design continues to control posture when tilted, the design is slightly bent at the edges. There is also a seat depth adjustment. The rollers can be replaced with static ones, but they will have to be purchased separately.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 80 k, plastic and steel cross.

8. Chairman 696 (from 3000 rubles)

Another budget option in the category of the best chairs for a student. Small classic computer chair. The average child will be held well: you can sway slightly and lean back on the mesh back. The fabric is well fixed and does not tear at all. It rises high enough so that it will be possible to adjust the position under any table.

The backrest angle can also be changed. The armrests are in place, but they are too stiff. The crosspiece is plastic and very strong, durable. At the beginning of our review, we mentioned the “middle child”. The fact is that the components of this chair are poorly designed for a large person. That is, you can sit down and be comfortable. But after a couple of months of leaning back, the locking mechanism begins to loosen up. A creak appears.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 100 kg, with armrests, plastic cross, gas lift, rocking mechanism.

9. MEALUX Aladdin (from 8 thousand rubles)

An interesting model of a chair for a schoolchild, named after a fairy-tale hero. If you look at it from the side, you get the feeling that it all comes in a wave. The back is concave inside with wings, a seat with modulations of heights. The manufacturer himself explains this with orthopedic forms in order to unload the spine. The backrest is adjustable in height regardless of the seat. And the latter, in turn, is adjustable in depth.

The wheels are lined with nylon. This is important so as not to damage surfaces such as carpets or laminate. They are designed in such a way as to constantly slow down and prevent the chair from rolling. Note that this is the most budgetary chair for a student in the line of this company. There are more expensive models that are similar in design features to other premium models in our ranking of the best.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 80 k, plastic cross, gas lift.

10. FUNDESK SST6 (from 11 thousand rubles)

The company specializes in the production of exclusively children’s furniture. The price of all products is above the market average. In return, the manufacturer offers high manufacturability of the product. From children’s orthopedic chairs for schoolchildren, we have chosen this model, which is popular in 2021. Let’s see what we pay for.

First of all, the two-part back attracts attention. The components are made in the form of petals. We have not seen orthopedic studies on this subject, but the manufacturer’s engineers explain this by the need for correct positioning of the spine. It is adjustable in height and extends in depth.

Unusual shape of the roller base, for extra stability. The adjustment mechanism here is a pneumatic spring. It sounds nice, but in fact it is the usual “gas lift”. Thought rollers – they are covered with rubber. Because of this, it is impossible to ride it if someone is sitting on top.

Features

Textile upholstery, up to 80 kg, plastic cross, footrest.

How to choose a chair for a student

We talked about the best chairs for schoolchildren that can be found in stores in 2022. We pass the floor to our expert – candidate of medical sciences, orthopedist-traumatologist of the European Medical Center Irina But-Gusaim. An expert will tell you how to choose a chair for lessons.

Criteria

A chair for a schoolchild should be selected so that the legs stand at an angle of 90 degrees tightly on the floor. The table is at the level of the stomach, but the legs do not reach the floor? Then you need a footrest. There should be a gap of 10-15 centimeters between the tabletop and the knees.

With wheels or without?

My opinion is that older children should have an office chair on wheels – from the second or third grade. A first-grader can be distracted – ride.

chair back

Children’s office chairs, which are now being made, have special backs that support the back of the child, preserving the natural curves of the spine. The backrest also needs to support the upper back in order to sit straight.

Armrests and headrest

I don’t think you need a headrest in a work chair. Because the child sits slightly leaning forward when writing and drawing. The headrest just doesn’t work. It is needed when we work at the computer. But this is clearly not for younger students. Based on the fact that the child’s hands are on the tabletop when working at the table, I don’t see the point in the armrests of the chair.

How to sit correctly

It is correct to sit at the desktop in such a way that the legs are on the floor, the hands, without straining in the shoulders, lie on the table. The body is slightly tilted forward. The distance between the eyes and the table is equal to the distance from the elbow to the tip of the fingers. The back is straight. If the legs do not reach the floor, we substitute something. The knees should be bent 90 degrees.

When you need a break

As in school, after 30-40 minutes of lessons, the student needs to get up to warm up. Attention begins to dissipate. It is better to stretch, perform inclinations than to be distracted by the phone.
