Stools are among the most important and popular forms of seating in the work environment and at home. They are widely available from many seat manufacturers and comes in various shapes and sizes. A properly designed and fully adjustable stool, along with appropriate seating posture, play an important role in reducing back stress, fatigue and restricted blood circulation. It also assists in avoiding distractions caused by discomfort, which is triggered by inappropriate support and constantly requires adjustments to remain comfortable. Therefore, ergonomically designed wood pneumatic stools go hand in hand with healthy seating.
The selection of seating equipment is usually done with the assumption that one size fits all. However, this notion is untrue and should be avoided at all costs. Users have different body types and adjustments such as height should be considered to facilitate proper seating posture. Height adjusting mechanism ensures that the user is able to firmly place his/her feet on the ground, an important aspect of ergonomic positioning. Some work surfaces (e.g. drafting tables) require taller seating equipment and thus necessitate the presence of a foot ring to enable users to firmly place their feet and at the same time be able to reach the work surface comfortably. Wood pneumatic stools offer versatility and suffice different user requirements. A study revealed that pneumatic stools are more useful and are more adapted for workers who require constant height adjustment, than ordinary stools.
While choosing a wood pneumatic stool, it is essential to ensure that the casters are in accordance with the floor upon which they are intended to be used, a feature most people tend to forget. Soft floors like carpet, linoleum, rugs, etc. mandate 'soft floor casters' while hard floors like wood, tile, ceramic, etc. require 'hard floor casters'. A stool with a five star fiberglass reinforced nylon base should be selected for added stability. Also, the height adjustment mechanism should be easy to use and offer 360 degree height adjustment. It is also imperative that the height adjustment range be in sync with the user(s) requirement.
Apart from all the benefits it already has to offer, wood pneumatic stools blend well with decor and can be virtually used anywhere in the modern office or home. Therefore, wood pneumatic stools not only fulfill ergonomic seating needs, it also satisfies aesthetic requirements.
