Best Office Chair of All Time

For those who have discerning requirements for their office chair, only the best office chair will do. A good office chair will serve its purpose at work and provide enough comfort for the owner. But the best office chair will inspire ultimate seating comfort and challenge the industry to continuously strive for breakthrough in office chair technology.

Moreover, a site about office chairs will not be complete without an endeavor to determine at the best office chairs. So here we go.

Our evaluation criteria will be based on the factors already established in our Office Chair Selection Guide page. However, the price factor will be given a lesser weightage here because in choosing the best office chair, we would like to focus at its features and design, and not limited by the price factor. We still maintain that no one chair is the best for every person, we merely evaluate based on the office chair advance feature and technology.
