§ 1. Wooden Chair

§ 2. Chairs with metal frames

§ 3. Swivel Chair

§ 4. Sofas, lounge chairs

Next, let's talk about what type of meeting chair is suitable for which situation.

wooden chair

These types of conference chairs consist of a backrest, a seat, and four legs. They can be used in any meeting, and you choose them simply because their appearance and style match your aesthetic standards.

They are expensive and require a very large space to be placed. They cannot be stacked like other framed chairs because their legs are thick and they are very bulky.

The main advantages of wooden chairs are: comfort and attractive appearance.

Chair with metal frame

Metal-framed conference chairs share the same frame style as wooden chairs and also include folding chairs, which are made of a less common material.

Chairs with metal frames are characterized by their durability; they can withstand impacts and bumps without falling apart or getting scratched like wooden chairs.

They are very convenient to stack together, and can be stacked up to the height of 10 tables and chairs. Like folding chairs, they can save a lot of space, which is their special function.

The main advantages of metal chairs are: durability and practicality.

swivel chair

While swivel chairs are very common and classic meeting chairs, and people prefer them for short meetings, the drawbacks of choosing one become apparent when frequent, long meetings are required. Their casters allow for easy movement to and from the desk. These chairs are particularly popular in high-level executive offices or conference rooms.

The main advantages of swivel conference chairs are comfort, appearance, and practicality.

Sofas, sofas and lounge seating

These seats are ideal for informal meeting areas and are perfect for placement in reception halls and waiting areas.

There are many different styles, and choosing the right type of seating, as well as making people remember their choice of these seats, are two important factors to consider.

First, try to avoid choosing seats with deep interiors, as people may feel awkward and uncomfortable when leaving. Second, avoid sofa seats that are too deep, for the same reason.

They work for most users, but people shorter than average may find themselves sitting on the edge of the seat and feeling uncomfortable.

The main advantages of sofas include the informality of sofa and lounge seating and their aesthetic appeal.

The above summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of four types of office chairs. Ultimately, the choice depends on your specific needs. The one that suits you best is always the best.
