Ergohuman vs Ergohuman Plus

Ergohuman Office Chair versus Ergohuman Plus Office Chair:
What is the difference and which one is the best Ergohuman chair?

While looking for a comfortable ergonomic chair, one of the acclaimed range of chairs you may come across is the Ergohuman range. These chairs are popular for their high built quality, extensive range of adjustments, breathable mesh or real leather and good lumbar support thanks to their split-back design.

However within the Ergohuman range of office chairs, various models emerge and it can be difficult to choose one over the other. The Ergohuman Plus has a higher price so what are the differences exactly is the question. Everyone wants to choose the right chair depending on their requirements and budget.  So what are the extra that the Ergohuman Plus chair offers?

The Ergohuman Plus Luxury is at the very top in the Ergohuman chair range. The chair has more polished aluminium parts: notably there is polished aluminium under the armrests and all the way up to the headrest. The spider base of the chair (also called star-base) has a curved design unlike the standard Ergohuman which has a straight starbase which is much more angular in design. So overall the Ergohuman Plus looks more stylish and has more shine thanks to the polished aluminium details.

However if you have a sore back you may be looking for more than just style and design. Indeed the Ergohuman Plus does have an additional ergonomic adjustment that is not available on the standard Ergohuman. It is called the “seat forward tilt angle” not to be confused with the reclining adjustment that is available on both Ergohuman and Ergohuman Plus – all the chairs are fully reclining. Basically the seat forward tilt angle adjustment allows you to angle the seat part of the chair independently from the backrest so that the seat is at a downward angle at the front edge. This means that you will be able to sit in a slight “alert” position, with the chair slightly lower at the front of the seat. The angle or slope is only a 4 to 5 degrees angle, however this is all you need as sitting at this angle promotes a better and more natural posture. Therefore it is well worth considering  stretching a bit further to buy the Ergohuman Plus chair as the investment will last you a long time and a healthy back is priceless. (the chairs come with warranty and replaceable parts).

While researching the chairs you may notice that there are different names such as Ergohuman, Ergohuman Elite, Ergohuman Plus, Ergohuman Plus Luxury. This is due to a gradual name change of the Ergohuman chairs. In effect:

– Ergohuman is also called Ergohuman Elite (these are the same chairs)
– Ergohuman Plus is also called Ergohuman Plus Luxury (same chairs).

Ergohuman old model: there is another older Ergohuman model easily recognizable by its bulky armrests and usually a black plastic casing under the seat to conceal the mechanism. This is the Ergohuman previous model and the easiest way to identify this chair as an old model, would be the round pad on the elbow parts of the armrests, and the rounded armpads at the front. Sometime these chairs don’t have the combined lever adjustment so they may have more than one lever under the seat as this improvement was added to the later chairs.

So if you can afford it, it is well worth choosing the Ergohuman Plus Luxury, if not you still have a very good chair with the Ergohuman Elite. If style design and shine matters then the Ergohuman Plus Luxury Office Chair wins it all round.

There’s an Ergohuman Plus Luxury Office Chair Just For You

If we’re all individual with different weights and body frames, then it stands to reason that there are going to be lots of different office chairs out there. When looking for your own personal ergonomic office chair, you need to be addressing your job responsibilities and the layout of the office, before setting your mind on the office chair of your choice as, like cars, different chairs perform in different ways. From type of fabric to the properties of the ergonomic chair, there is one waiting out there for you.

A chair worth its salt is the Ergohuman Plus. Your first choice might relate to whether you want Ergohuman Plus Luxury Mesh or whether the Ergohuman Plus Luxury leather is more your style. Of course, you can also mix and match, maybe preferring a leather seat but a mesh chair back, to make you feel comfortable while you are managing your job responsibilities. In black leather (other colours come to order) or your choice from the range of colours available in mesh, that personal touch makes you feel even more comfortable.

A single lever operates the seat height, the depth of the seat and the tilt of the chair back, catering for height differences and adjusting the positioning of the chair back, to give personalised lumbar support. The arm rests adjust in all directions, to get the right fit for you, the user, making that lower arm perfectly horizontal to meet your desk or keyboard. The headrest as an optional extra, adds the finishing touch to whole body support.

The Ergohuman Plus also boasts a mechanism which allows you to tilt and slide the seat to your requirements, helping you take some pressure off your spine during those many hours of sitting.

With a polished aluminium frame and base and its black castors, the Ergohuman Plus looks classy and its whole frame highlights the technology that has gone into this office chair. With six models to choose from, there is sure to be an Ergohuman Plus Luxury for you.

Enjoy Mesh Office Chair

The name ‘Enjoy’ for an ergonomic office chair makes you like it straightaway, doesn’t it? Still, we’re inquisitive creatures and would need to know a little more before purchasing, wouldn’t we?

Well, the Enjoy ergonomic office chair is one of the stunning designs offered in the Ergohuman range and I always advise that this is the best place to start looking if you want a seriously effective chair. With autoflex zones which give lumbar support, a single lever for making many of the adjustments (including back height , back tilt and seat slide), three-dimensional arm rest adjustments (height, width and angle) and the option of a headrest, this ergonomic office chair is serious business when it comes to looking after the human frame.

The chair frame is very inviting to look at, the back support giving the impression of a tree and its branches. To me, that has the psychological feeling of growth and that’s something that is needed in the work environment. Gone are the days of chairs designed simply to sit on; today’s chairs have to sell themselves by looking good as well.

The upholstery I would go for is mesh, as it offers so many advantages. It’s breathable and thus helps to keep you cool longer. It’s longer-lasting, as the mesh is tightly-woven. It’s easy to look after, simply needing the occasional wipe over to keep it looking clean and fresh. And, as for colour, you can have straightforward black or blue, or go for a more interesting red, green, orange, burgundy, white or grey. Teamed with a white, black, or silver frame (for me, in that order), you’ve got a nice piece of equipment to help you with your job. It looks good, feels good and so do you!
