Selection Tips

1. Backrest Design:

   • It should fit the curves of the waist and neck, dynamically supporting the lumbar and cervical spine. The human spine is S-shaped, and a qualified reclining chair should support manual adjustment (recommended range of 105°–135°), with a filling layer made of memory foam or high-elasticity sponge, of moderate thickness.
   • Focus on testing whether the lumbar support floats with body posture to avoid the waist hanging in the air after prolonged use.

2. Seat Depth and Height:

   • The standard seat depth is 40–48cm, and the seat height should allow the feet to rest flat on the ground with the thighs at approximately a 90° angle to the ground.
   • The adjustment knob should be smooth, and the gas lift should raise and lower steadily, with a recommended span from the lowest to the highest position of ≥12cm to accommodate users of different heights.

3. Reclining Mechanism:

   • A high-quality mechanism should feature multiple gear limits and infinite damping adjustment, with coordinated linkage between the backrest and seat cushion when reclining, and the footrest extending smoothly without protruding.
   • It should automatically reset without jamming when getting up, with the entire process being quiet, stable, and supportive.

4. Fabric Selection:

   • For mesh fabric, choose high-density weaving + elastic fiber blends; for genuine or faux leather, it should have microporous technology and an underlying elastic base fabric.
   • Test whether the edges of the seat cushion are prone to "sagging", how quickly it rebounds when pressed, and whether the surface temperature rises by no more than 2°C after 30 minutes of sitting as a qualified breathability standard.

5. Armrest Function:

   • The ideal state is four-way adjustment (up and down, forward and backward, left and right, flipping), with the adjustment knob positioned reasonably and requiring moderate force.
   • Test whether the armrest lightly touches the outside of the forearm during actions such as typing, resting the chin, or leaning sideways, with the elbow joint maintaining a natural 90° bend.
