The Eurotech Apollo II is a stylish, modern yet practical swivel office chair that is fit for any work station. It has a tall mesh backrest that provides both great back support and contouring. Because it’s made of heavy duty mesh and not a cushion, your back stays cool and comfortable even if you’re sitting for an extended period of time. For mobility and versatility, the seat can swivel 360 degrees and can tilt back and forth. Five smooth roller casters make it easy to move the chair around.

The Humanscale Diffrient is one of the best smart, intuitive chairs for office use. For starters, thanks to its novel tri-panel backrest, the chair offers excellent lumbar support. The high-tech U-shaped backrest easily adapts to the person’s body type, and since it is made of foam-sensing mesh, you’ll stay cool while sitting on it. Unique among office chairs, the Humascale Diffrient doesn’t have manual controls. Instead, it features a fully-adjustable, weight-sensitive, self-locking recline mechanism that allows a comfortable and healthy sitting position.

Proudly made in the USA, the Aeron Chair by Herman Miller is an ergonomic office chair featuring a patented PostureFit SL Support system. The system includes an adjustable backrest that supports your spine while retaining your pelvis forward tilt. Specifically, the heart of the PostureFit SL system is a pair of back pads that flex independently, allowing them to conform to your lumbar area so they could stabilize your spine. The breathable 8Z Pellicle Suspension seat and back mesh has eight zones of different levels of tension, providing comfortable support and, at the same time, allowing air to circulate to keep you cool.

Simple yet elegant, the Steelcase Gesture Chair is full of ergonomic features designed exclusively for the user’s ultimate comfort. It all starts with its Core Equalizer technology. The system’s torsional spring automatically alters the angle of the backrest and seat. The more you recline, the lesser the lumbar support. Conversely, when you’re sitting in an upright position, the system adds more lumbar support. In addition, the synchronized 3D Liveback interface system allows the back, seat, and arms to mimic your natural spine movement and alignment. For further comfort and plush, the seat and backrest have air pockets under the foam.
