Have you considered investing in an ergonomic chair for your home or corporate office? Recent studies have found that hundreds of thousands of common workplace injuries, such as back problems and neck pains, are caused by outdated and unsafe office furniture.

The good news is, you don’t have to break the bank to invest in your smart ergonomic office now! Autonomous, a company that specializes in smart office products, has an incredibly affordable option accessible to most office workers: the ErgoChair Recline.

Perhaps the most important feature of any ergonomic chair is its ability to adapt and adjust to ensure each individual person has the optimal ergonomic support they need. Since we’re all built differently, we all need different adjustments to ensure we sit at work safely and ergonomically. 

To get a better idea of how the ErgoChair Recline (MyoChair) works, here is a complete guide to all of its adjustment points and features.

1. Headrest

The ErgoChair Recline's headrest is an easily adjustable add-on that can be lifted and lowered as a whole to cradle your head and neck in the exact right spot. In addition to lifting and lower, the headrest can be tilted up or down to meet the natural curve of the back of your head and neck. 

Covered in a breathable TPB mesh material, the ErgoChair Recline’s headrest is designed for ultimate comfort and flexibility.

The armrests in the ErgoChair Recline are slightly concave to cradle your forearms comfortably. In addition to moving forward and backward to support different arm lengths, the armrests are easy to adjust up and down to ensure that your arms are bent at an ergonomic 90 degree angle.

Simply lift, lower, and adjust forward or backward until your arms are resting comfortably by your sides and bent at 90 degrees, which should also be parallel to your desk surface.

Using the right handle located under your seat, you can press upward to release the chair and lower it down, or remove your weight to lift the cushion upward. The seat’s height range is from 18-21.7 inches from the floor.

For optimal comfort, you should adjust the height of your seat so that your legs are bent at a 90 degree angle with your feet resting flat on the floor.

Feel like taking a load off and relaxing? The ErgoChair Recline's got you covered. Under your seat, you’ll find a retractable leg rest cleverly tucked away that unfolds right out in front of you. Simply extend the leg rest, put your feet up, lean back, and take a well-deserved break.

To take advantage of the ErgoChair Recline’s 18 degree range of reclining, simply flip up the left handle below your seat to unlock the backrest. You can then lean back or forward to the precise position you want. Simply flip the handle back down again to lock the backrest in place. 

This is the best way to make sure you’re sitting straight and upright to focus on your work, and get a nice relaxing recline when it’s time to take a break.

Every ErgoChair Recline comes with a lumbar support cushion. Since taller and shorter people need support at different points to achieve a natural lumbar curve, the lumbar support cushion can be pushed up or pulled down easily to support any body type. 

With up to 6 cm of range, the lumbar support cushion should support most tall, medium, and short body types. You may need to adjust this cushion a few times to get a feel for where your spine curves most naturally.
