What kind of chair do you use? Would an office chair work?

Just a metal fold up chair, just make sure it's comfy and easy to store. Make sure the part that supports the person's back is more rounded and not squared because it can hurt the person's back. I would Not recommend that has wheels because they might accidentally push themselves and that can cause the whole shampoo bowl to tip over and themselves.

It should be possible to use a low back office chair that tilts back. The rinse basin has plenty of height adjustment for standard height seating where the seat is approx. 18-20 inches off the floor.

An office chair should work. Also note that I will be selling ours, as the patient no longer needs it. We only used it a couple times.

I could see an office chair would work. But I actually use it for people that are on wheel chairs. And most of the wheel chairs lean back. But the sink can be raised up and down

We use our chair for a desk chair and it is very good for the price but I don't think I would use them daily for that purpose.

I agree with the previous answers. The chair is very small and the siting surface and back support are rather hard for long period of sitting, not comparable to the office chairs on the market that have high back support and contoured, well cushioned surface. It is an elegant chair and could be used as a desk chair in small space. In that case, one may consider getting extra cushions for the sitting and back.

I think you should look for another chair. Too bad as this is a GREAT chair.

I purchased the chair for an employee in our office. I haven't been able to contact him for instructions. I am sorry that I couldn't help you.

I feel it should work. My office chair is pretty big and weighs roughly 30 lbs...I take that back. I didn't want to give you misinformation so I decided to actually weigh it for myself... Turns out my office chair weighs in between 46-47lbs, I couldn't believe it! I knew it was heavy, but not THAT heavy. LOL! I sit and roll around on it daily for hours at a time. Never heard it crackle or felt like it was going to buckle.Keep in mind- I weigh 140lbs and usually sit on it with my 2 year old that weighs roughly 25lbs (last time I checked)I've had the mat for several months now and it sits on carpet of a decent thickness. It's not plush but it's not low pile either.Hope I answered your question.All the bestB. I feel it should work. My office chair is pretty big and weighs roughly 30 lbs...I take that back.

Yes, I currently use it for the purpose of a chair instead of a computer chair. But I would keep your current office chair handy for the first few days until you are comfortable sitting in it all the time. I never use my computer chair anymore and sit on this all day, feels great.

I think it would be uncomfortable...I used it for couches and beds. Can't imagine that a chair would work out well

I'm sorry but a regular office chair will be good to work at the desk, it will not fit under it. I just measured it for you and the height from floor to drawer is 22". I love my desk so much I found a new favorite office chair. Hope this helps. Bonnie

I would assume so however, I know they make Large chairs in the same model that might be more comfortable - good luck!

Yes, you can use it for your office chair. They sell straps for it, or they sell one with straps. You may have to look at their website to find out more.

I have it at work and my primary work seat is a yoga ball so that is what I sit on most of the time but I have also used a traditional desk chair.

It's a good idea to have another chair available for a while, when I first started using it I could only go for an hour at a time, now I can use it all day though I typically only use it before lunch then switch to a conventional chair for the rest of the day. My next step will be a treadmill desk.

It is a very sturdy chair. I have seen someone close to that weight regularly use the chair, butI am not sure if it would work for you.

Yes, it woild work. It is sturdy enough. You may want a chair that has height adjustment, as itnis a bit higher than a normal desk. I just raise my office-style chair whennI turn to use it like a desk.

I dont believe it will work. It's part of the suport structure. I have been really happy with this chair. I'm getting ready to order a second one.

I have a basic office chair that rolls, it fits perfectly. With room to raise the seat if needs be.
