If you're thinking about creating a mini home office, you'll probably need a desk chair.

But, as the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, rightly noted, when buying such furniture there is a high risk of running into a stylish, but uncomfortable product.

This is not the case when you should sacrifice your comfort and convenience for the sake of aesthetics.

Instead of buying a fancy chair, choose a high table that has a soft seat and a suitable back.

Signs of a good office chair

1. It does not necessarily have to have armrests. These elements are only needed for a person to lean on them when he sits down or, conversely, stands up.

If your elbows are always placed on the armrests while you are in the chair, your body will always be in an unnatural position. As a result, by the end of the working day you will feel pain and aches.

2. To choose the correct height, make sure your feet rest comfortably on the floor.

The lower limbs should not bend too much at the knees, but they should not hang in the air either.

3. Those who can maintain their posture on their own can look at options that are not equipped with a backrest.

But if it so happens that you have chosen a model with a back, lean on it with your entire back, and not just your shoulder blades or lower back.
