Big and Tall Office Chair

Despite what people think, chairs are not a one size fits all piece of furniture. When you are larger or taller than average, getting into the standard office chair may be a bit of a challenge. But it doesn’t have to be. A big and tall office chair is just what you need to feel comfortable at your desk.  Unlike typical chairs, that usually have a 19” seat, big and tall chairs are made with a 21” seat for lots of room. For additional comfort, some chairs have adjustable armrests thereby allowing for even more width space. And if you need extra depth to your seat, then look for a chair that lets you re-position the back.

Office chairs for the big and tall are weight-rated for 350lbs, although some chairs are rated up to 450lbs.This means that big and tall office chairs are built to last, so expect your chair cushioning not to wimp out on you. Because these chairs are made with foam padding designed for 24 hour wear, you’ll never have to deal with flat and limp cushions after just a few months of use again.

Other helpful features of the big and tall chair include the waterfall seat front. Because the front of the seat slopes down, there’s no pressure behind your knees. This helps with circulation as well as comfort.
