When working from home (WFH), some people need clarification about finding a chair for WFH. The reason is, that to be able to work smoothly and focus all day, you need the right support from the chair you use. Some considerations for choosing a work chair are price, function, and comfort. Meanwhile, the office chairs’ price is indeed expensive. Even so, are the functions and comfort of the office chair worth the price? Or maybe, other types of chairs are suitable for WFH?
Chair Alternatives for WFH
Ergonomic chairs
Ergonomic chairs are the most suitable type of chair for WFH. The reason is, that almost all offices use this chair so that their employees feel comfortable. Ergonomic chairs can relieve fatigue from sitting too long, optimized with a design that supports back posture. For a really good ergonomic chair, it will drain your pockets.
Even so, there are still many shops that sell this type of chair at a fairly affordable price.
Gaming chairs
The games played by gamers are mostly long-lasting. Therefore, gaming chairs are designed to be as comfortable as possible for hours. The design of a gaming chair can improve posture, and provide comfort to the back, and other parts of the body. Not only that, if the cushions are positioned properly, the neck will not feel tense like when sitting on a regular chair for a long time. But noticed that gaming chairs tend to be expensive.
Reclining chair
Use a chair to lean back (recline). Because, if you have back pain caused by sitting upright for too long, sitting back can be a suitable alternative. In addition to eliminating pain, working also feels more relaxed.
Exercise ball
Do you like to exercise, but can’t leave your work? If so, an exercise ball is an alternative office chair for you. Sitting on an exercise ball while working can improve posture, a fresher body, and balance. But constantly moving can be tiring. So, use your exercise ball when working only several times.
