Many years ago, what would become the office environment was still being worked out. Gigantic sheets of printer paper and jumbo printers, large, boxy computers, and even knee-high socks could be found in the then office environment. Fast-forward to modern times and realize how far things have come.
One specific and quite interesting transformation that took place – office chairs. At one time, an office chair might be any type of chair or similar item that could be used in the new office setting. Today, office chairs have evolved into a very articulate selection, specializing in anything from comfort to accessory storage. We sort through today’s offerings and bring you the ten best ergonomic office chairs for 2013.
