The backrest adopts a waist-back separation design, with the lumbar support adjustable in height independently. It also has adjustable support strength, divided into strong, medium, and weak levels. When sitting upright, the neck, shoulders, waist, and back fit well, making it very suitable for people who sit upright for office work and effectively reducing body fatigue from long hours of work.

For instance, a model priced at 50 yuan with monthly sales of 30 units. These chairs have a simple design and relatively basic functions, meeting basic office sitting needs. There is also a home computer chair priced at 94.64 yuan, which is comfortable for long sitting and suitable for various scenarios such as home office, meetings, and dormitory use by students.
3. Multi-functional Folding Chairs: Like the folding training chair with a tabletop for conference tables, priced at 62.99 yuan. This type of chair has a folding function, making it convenient for storage and portability, and suitable for occasions where temporary seating arrangements are needed, such as training sessions and meetings.
4. Chairs with Special Designs: A simple reception chair with armrests, featuring a thickened integrated bent-pipe steel frame, is suitable for reception areas in office buildings and has a breathable mesh backrest, priced at 66 yuan. It uses a thickened integrated bent-pipe steel frame, ensuring structural stability. The breathable mesh backrest design increases comfort during use, making it suitable for reception areas in office buildings.

II. Quality Issues of Steel Office Chairs Between 2023 and 2025, there have been recalls of some office chairs in the United States, Canada, and China. The reasons for recalls mainly include the possibility of backrest breakage, which affects the normal use of the chairs and may even cause harm to users; prominent stability issues, with chairs being prone to wobbling during use, posing safety hazards; and the potential failure of bolts, leading to loose chair structures and an inability to ensure user safety.
