What kind of leather chair do you need?

If you’re in an office chair for 8 hours a day you want something durable & long lasting in terms of quality. Comfort is important, perhaps you need extra padding, headrests or lumbar support and the ability to adjust the chair to the optimum position for you.

Each chair has a unique set of features, some with all the bells and whistles, others with the basics such as seat height and back height adjustments. These are still suitable for most employees who don’t have any additional requirements.

All chairs have a recommended usage time so check these are in line with your needs.
