While it may seem like a small detail, there are a number of reasons to opt for a comfortable office chair, especially if your use-case involves long hours at the desk. The right choice can make a big difference in your comfort, health, and work performance.
However, finding the best in a sea of options can be difficult, and so, to help, we’ve compiled a list of our top picks for comfortable rolling chairs.
AVA Mesh Office Chair
The AVA Mesh, despite being cheaper than some of the other office chairs on this list, deserves a mention due to its unique value proposition.
There are three key reasons why we recommend the AVA Mesh Office Chair: the first has to do with its mesh backrest, which, like the Argus, conforms to the contours of your back for comfort, while keeping you cool and dry—especially in hot climates like Singapore.
The second reason for why we love the AVA has to do with its backrest, which, beyond offering enhanced support and comfort, accommodates a variety of body shapes and sizes, making it ideal for meeting rooms or offices.
The last reason why you should get the AVA boils down to its overall durability. From the 360° swivel and castors to the sturdy 5-pronged leg frame, the AVA has been designed from the ground up to endure rigorous use.
Argus Mesh Office Chair
The Argus Mesh Office Chair is, if anything, quietly brilliant. Suitable for home or work environments, it contains several thoughtfully designed elements that together elevate the user experience.
For example, the soft mesh backrest not only promotes breathability by allowing air to circulate and minimising sweat buildup, but it also conforms to the contours of your back. Together with the included lumbar support, this promotes enhanced comfort and proper posture during long periods of sitting.
And then you have the floating armrests attached to the backrest, positioned at the right height to allow freedom of movement when adjusting sitting positions (perfect for those who like to sit cross-legged on a chair) while at the same time serving its intended purpose as an armrest. These small elements together make the Argus Mesh chair a compelling choice.
Magnum Ultra+ Gaming Chair
The Magnum Ultra+ Gaming Chair had to be included in this list as an all-round great performer, whether you’re judging by metrics like durability, comfort, aesthetics, or adjustability.
Swivel armrests that lift or lower provide support at multiple angles, while the tilt mechanism allows for a smooth reclining experience. The lumbar support is adjustable, moving up or down to match the natural curvature of your spine for long-term comfort. The neck pillow is also adjustable and can be removed depending on your preference.
With a sturdy 5-pronged leg frame, adjustable height, reclining back rests, and 360° swivel, the Magnum Ultra+, available in all black (for those that hope to use it in an office environment), dark grey blue, dark grey, and pink, is an easy recommendation for those looking for a reliable, comfortable, high-quality office chair.
DANAUS Ergonomic Chair
Long hours at the desk can be taxing, putting undue strain on muscles, ligaments, bones and even joints.
The DANAUS Ergonomic Chair excels in support and comfort, with a unique design, characterised by soft, pliable cushioning, that distributes body weight evenly, reducing pressure points and discomfort during long sitting periods.
Despite the cosy appearance of the DANAUS Ergonomic chair, it is anything but delicate. A durable frame, engineered to provide stability and long-lasting support, make it a reliable choice for daily use whether it’s at the office or at home.
We love that despite the hyper focus on comfort, all the standard adjustments are present, including height, tilt, recline, not to mention 360° swivel. If you need a office chair that doesn’t eschew style or durability in favour of comfort, DANAUS Ergonomic Chair is the one for you.
Adonis Ergonomic Office Chair
The fifth of our top picks, and coincidentally one of our favourite comfortable office chairs, is the Adonis Ergonomic Office Chair.
All the standard comfort features are present, including the breathable mesh and curved arm rests for support. The durable elements are also well-represented, with a sturdy 360° swivel, smooth-rolling castors, and a robust 5-pronged leg frame.
What we especially love about the Adonis is the dynamic lumbar support, also made from mesh, that adapts to your sitting posture, providing proper alignment, reducing stress on the lumbar region, and, in general, promoting a more ergonomic sitting posture.
Design elements notwithstanding, the Autumn colourway is a visual delight, tickling the brain’s pleasure centres with its warm, vibrant hue that adds both style and sophistication to any workspace.
MONARCH Ergonomic Office Chair
Our last chair on the list is the MONARCH, a brilliant office chair that offers great adjustability and is as beautiful to look at as it is durable. The backrest, inspired by the unique patterns of a butterfly wing, is ergonomically designed to provide comfort for long hours on end.
The lumbar support is adjustable, and the seat depth can be easily shifted forward or backward to accommodate different sitting positions. If you need a quick break, simply extend the reclinable footrest, tilt back, and relax for a moment of comfort before getting back to work.
And that’s only the tip of the iceberg. The Monarch, available in black and grey, is designed from the ground up to mould to the user’s needs, offering all the necessary adjustments for personalised comfort. The armrests can lift, lower, swivel, or slide forward and backward; the backrest height is fully adjustable; and the headrest can be lifted or tilted forward and backward for optimal support.
