How to choose an ergonomic office chair
An ergonomic chair should fit the person, not the other way around. Before you compare models, note who will sit in it, for how many hours a day, and at what kind of desk.
Adjustments that matter
- Seat height, so feet rest flat on the floor with thighs roughly level.
- Seat depth, so there is a gap of two or three fingers between the seat edge and the back of the knee.
- Lumbar support you can move to sit in the curve of the lower back.
- Armrests that adjust in height, and ideally width, so shoulders stay relaxed at the keyboard.
- A tilt mechanism with tension control and a lock, so the chair supports you when you lean back.
Task, executive or guest?
Task chairs are built for full workdays at a desk. Executive chairs add a higher back and a more formal look for private offices and boardrooms. For reception areas and training rooms, see our guest and waiting room chairs.
Chairs for sit-stand desks
If your team uses sit-stand desks, choose a chair with enough seat-height range for the desk's lowest setting, and add a monitor arm or keyboard tray so the screen and keyboard follow the user.
Buying for a team
For ten or more chairs, add them to your cart and choose "Request a quote" for volume pricing, or send a list through the quote form. Organizations with an approved purchase order account can pay by PO. If the chairs are part of a move or refresh, our office design service plans seating along with the rest of the floor, and the EME Utility Engineering project shows a full office furnished at once.
Common questions about ergonomic office chairs
Can I get volume pricing on office chairs?
Yes. If you are buying ten or more chairs, or outfitting a whole department, add them to your cart and choose "Request a quote" instead of checking out by card. We confirm pricing, delivery and any installation in writing before you commit. Carts over $5,000 go to the quote route automatically, so a person always checks large seating orders.
How are sales tax and shipping charged?
Prices are in Canadian dollars. At checkout, GST, HST or PST is calculated for your ship-to province, and shipping is calculated from your postal code and the size of the order. You see both before you pay. Most chairs ship by courier. If something in your cart needs freight, the order moves to a quote so we can confirm the delivery cost first.
How long does a chair take to arrive?
It depends on the model and on whether the manufacturer has it in stock. In-stock chairs ship after processing. If an item is not in stock, we contact you with an estimated lead time before anything ships. Configured seating is built to order; if you are working to a deadline, ask about Seating Quick Ship on our quick ship page.
Can government or First Nations buyers pay by purchase order?
Yes, once your organization has an approved purchase order account. Apply on our PO accounts page; when your credit application is approved, sign in and choose Purchase order at checkout, or send your PO with a quote request. IHS is a CCIB-certified Indigenous business and PSIB-eligible, so federal buyers can count the purchase toward Indigenous procurement. We can include our certification details with the quote.
Need more than a few pieces?
IHS plans and supplies complete offices and manages installation, anywhere in Canada.
