Office Chairs: A Wooden Office Chair

Posted by Oze Parrot on November 21st, 2005

Another option for your office chair is the wooden office chair; some of these chairs are available with upholstery options, as well as ergonomic adjustments.

Wooden Office Chair
All wood chairs are one more option for you to consider. These are sometimes referred to as banker’s chairs. Usually, there are fewer adjustments available; height is sometimes the only adjustment.

The same considerations about fitting the chair to the individual mentioned previously apply here. Unless you are going to use a cushioned seat pad, the contour of the edge of the seat must not be too hard.

All wood chairs tend to be more durable, there is no upholstery to wear out, or padding to compress, and with a minimum of care will last many years.

Here are a few recommendations that will enable you to prolong the life of your wooden office chairs:

  • Do not place too close to heat sources, which could lead to excessive dryness.
  • Do not leave in direct sunlight for prolonged periods, which may damage the finish.
  • Dust frequently with a soft cloth, and clean according to manufacturers directions.
  • Wax or polish the chair occasionally. (Do not wax urethane finished woods, as this will increase the amount of dust it attracts.)
  • Used office chairs are often available on the market and a price of 60-80% below retail value is not unusual.
    Doing the rounds of the second hand shops could lead you to a substantial saving on your purchase of quality furniture.
