How to Choose the Right Stool

There are many uses for stools in the business world. You probably have a use for stools in your business if your think about it. The break area, for instance, if it’s small could probably be a little roomer with stools instead of chairs. If you have a small break room with just a microwave and an apartment-sized refrigerator and a few chairs, you can make it a little bigger then by replacing the chair with stools. Add a counter, some nice lighting; maybe a snack machine and some stools under the counter. You’ll have more room to move around, and your employees will it enjoy too.  The Izzy+ Hannah Stool is a perfect stool for this type of situation. It’s a modern design and armless.

Features:

Leaning stools

An interesting stool is a leaning stool. Leaning stools are used with sit/standing desks. The benefits of a leaning stool are increased productivity, less backpain, increased comfort and better moods and energy levels because you are using the right furniture for your body on the job. With a leaning stool, it will take a few days to get used to it though. Studies show, however, that using a stool instead of a regular office chair helps with circulation in your legs and circulation to your lower body and feet. So, this stool will also help to reduce pressure on your lower back.

There are several styles of leaning stools.

  • Stool with blue seat cushionThe saddle stools are good for when you are reaching for work with 2 hands. They do have a wide stance and saddle pressure, so it may take some getting used to.
  • Leaning and standing stools are almost as high as when you stand. These seats work well if you’re working on a fixed activity, but not if you need to move around a lot.
  • The bicycle seat stool is smaller than the saddle seat stool and costs less. But the smaller seat makes it less comfortable when sitting for long periods.
  • The perch stool costs less and is more rugged, but can be uncomfortable after a while. You can also slip forward off the flat seat if you’re not careful.

Though the seats can lack comfort if you sit too long, they are good if you are in and out of your desk often. This is especially true since sitting too long in a chair even if comfortable can cause health problems because of the reduction in blood circulation over an extended period of time.

Other stools

Ergonomic Task Chair Stool with High BackA drafting stool has a higher seat to reach a counter or a bar height work surface. These stools usually have a foot ring around the cylinder of the stool so that you can rest your feet when sitting on the stool. Task stools, computer stools and stools which are multipurpose have many advantages for people who use them. The stools can help maintain your posture and increase comfort. If you’re half-sitting on your work stool, you can get up more easily to move around and stand up without as much stress on your body. Being able to move around helps to reduce pain in your back, knees, joints and other sections of your body. The Herman Miller Ergon Armless Stool has an adjustable foot bar and seat height to make you as comfortable as possible.

Task stools have become a big part of the sit and stand movement in the office. Specialists have discovered that when people sit for a long period, it can hurt your body. You can develop injuries, fatigue, muscle cramps and discomfort and pain. It’s been found that using stools can improve work performance. So, Steelcase Leap V2 Used Task Chair  has upper back force, a back stop and adjustable seat heights. It has lumbar support with lower back firmness. The stools have good height, width, pivot and depth with the arms as well as seat depth

Another use for stools is at a conference table. So, there are stools which will reach to the height of a conference table without a problem. Also, with stools, you have more elbow room without hitting your arm on the chair beside you when the table is crowded. With stools, when the meeting is over, the stools can all be pushed under the table for a more streamlined and neater appearance in the office too. A good example of this stool is the Steelcase Think Used Conference Chair; it has an adjustable height, a sliding seat and tilt tension. The arms are small and fixed. It has a fabric seat and back.

As you can see, there’s a stool for every need in an office.

New Heavy Duty Folding Tables by goSIT

For new heavy duty folding tables, goSIT has the new models that are out. These tables can be used in your conference room for the extra tables that you’re going to need if you are having an in-town conference with other business people. Or if you are just having an event like a retirement party, or even just because you need the tables for regular work. So, you just open them up, and you have all the extra table tops you need for all the people at work.

goSIT Heavy Duty Folding Table in Gray LaminateThe heavy duty folding table can also be used in the breakroom or lunchroom. This is especially handy if the room is used for another event later in the day which won’t be using tables. The tables can be broken down and stacked neatly against the wall until needed again.

For displays of your merchandise at an expo, these tables will pack up and travel too. Unfold them; set them up, and you can display whatever it is that you’ve brought to show interested buyers. They travel easily and can be carried by two people.

For training sessions, these tables have enough tabletop room for everyone to spread out their documents also. They can even be used by the presenter to setup their presentations, slideshows and whatever else they would need to do with the tables.

goSIT also makes an adjustable folding table for those times when you need a table that’s just a little higher. It’s great for presentations which need to be seen from the back of the room or something along that nature.

Other advantages of heavy folding tables

Imagine these situations. The rooms are all set up with regular folding tables. The problem is that they look tacky. The legs on some are wobbly. It looks like you are having a conference in a laundry room. Or, just as bad, you have a table with drinks and food on it. But someone bumps into the table, and this shakes the table so that food or drinks fall onto the floor. Or you put a device on a table that you are pitching or something that is somewhat heavy that you need for a speaker. But when you place the item on the table, the table collapses before your eyes right in front of you prospective customers.

These examples are given because we’ve all had to deal with a table that is not heavy duty at home where something like the examples above have happened so they are easy to visualize. But this kind of thing is not what you want to happen in a business setting. So, with the use of a heavy table, these problems can be avoided. Additionally, costs can be saved because the tables are sturdier so that when you store them, they have less chance of being damaged by the weight of other things being placed by them. They also won’t damage easily when they’re used, or in the set up.

Tables for Small Spaces

Knoll Reff Used 2 Drawer 36 Inch Lateral, Maple

Tables are used in offices for many different reasons. You may need a few in the breakroom to replace older ones or perhaps because you’ve hired new employees. You may need tables for your training room or even some for your reception area. Whatever your need, there is sure to be a table to fill it. Just find a table which complements your office or whatever room you need it for.

Types of tables

72 Inch Used Round Plastic Folding Table, White SpeckledSince there are different types of tables for small spaces, let’s go over a few. For example, there are the folding tables which can be set up for a display of products or even for an impromptu meeting. A goSIT  60 Inch Round Plastic Folding Table is one such table. It has a plastic top, and its metal legs fold up quickly. This table can be stored when the meeting is over easily too. It can be put in a closet out of the way until it’s needed the next time.

Training tables which are small and can be stacked to take up less space when you’re finished using them are also something to think about. These tables sit inside one another for storage and can be placed against a wall or in a closet when not in use. A good example of these are goSIT Mobile Nesting Training Tables. These tables are modern training tables that are on casters to move wherever you need them to be. They fold down for nesting in storage, taking up less space than regular tables. They’re easy to clean and have a folding latch and four casters with two that lock.  The corners are rounded so that no one is bumping into sharp corners. They come in a range of sizes.

Breakroom tables and reception area are two more places that need tables which aren’t too large. Employees enjoy sitting a few at a table, or pulling a few tables together if sitting with a larger group of colleagues too. Or a small table is perfect in the reception room for placing drinks, or even placing a small lamp for extra light. This table, the Steelcase Vecta Used Laminate Half Round Table is great for both. It has a laminated top for easy cleaning and is a half round shaped. This can be easily pushed against a wall or placed against another one for more tabletop if a longer table is needed.

Everyday 24x24 Laminate End Table, CherryAnother table which can be used in the reception room is the Espresso Laminate End Table. This table will create an inviting space in any reception area. Use it in a waiting area or office. It also works well between the waiting room chairs against a wall for placing the magazines.

Adjustable height tables are for when you’re tired of sitting and want to stand and work. If you want to stand and work, then you can raise the height of your desk. When you’re ready to sit back down you can lower it again. Ikea Galant Used 47×63 Adjustable Height Laminate Table Left Bend is an example of this kind of office table. It has a laminated top which makes wiping it up easy and three metal legs which are adjustable.

As you can see, tables have many uses in an office. So, tables can be used in the lobby for clients to place their refreshments on, or for the magazines that are neatly placed for them to read while waiting. Tables are needed for the breakroom too for the magazines and for the refreshments and lunches. Tables can be used in a training room for meetings and training programs also. Adjustable tables can be used for when employees don’t feel like sitting anymore, but feel the need to stretch and stand while working. For small spaces, there are tables which measure 26 inches wide and can hold up to 100 pounds safely. And with small tables, they can be stored easily and put together when the need arises. You can’t cut a larger table after all.

Whatever the need is for a table in your office, check out the links below.

Different Types of Desk Styles to Choose for Your Office

When redecorating your office, deciding on a new desk to fit your style may be a little difficult. Because there are so many different styles and choices in the styles to pick from. Do you go with an impressive executive double pedestal desk or with an L-shape desk? Maybe a U-shape desk is more your style. Or if you want to interact more with your co-workers, then you can always choose a Peninsula, otherwise known a P-top or Bullet top desk; or even a partner desk.

Denmark Executive U-shape Desk with Hutch in Gray LaminateThe choices are numerous, and it helps to know a little about each one before making your selection. So, this article will review the desks so that you can get a better idea on what you might be interested in. There are also links below the article so that you can see the desks and get more information on the choices offered. But before you click on the links, below are different types of desks as well as their descriptions so that you’ll better know about the desks and their functionality:

The executive desk with double pedestals: This is a type of executive pedestal desk that has a pedestal on each side of the desk. A small platform known as a plinth is what the pedestal sits on usually. The pedestals aren’t just for looks but also have sets of drawers or small cabinets inside. The drawers are not all the same size. A small drawer may be on the top for office supplies with a larger drawer on the bottom for files.

Sometimes in the middle of the desk is a center drawer which comes in handy. This type of desk is a freestanding unit, more easily moved from one place to another place and traditionally has a leather top. The rest is made from wood.

The Executive “L”: This executive desk has two pieces. These pieces are a single pedestal main desk and the return. Both of these pieces are usually at the same height of about 29” or 30”. The return on this desk can be either on the right or left side.

The Executive “U”: This is a large desk shaped in a U. It consists of a desk, connecting bridge and a credenza. Sometimes a wall mounted overhead storage unit or a hutch will be included with the pieces

The “L” desk: This “L” desk has a single pedestal desk with only one storage pedestal and a connecting return that only has one storage pedestal.  An “L” shaped executive desk has a “left” or a “right” dealing with its description. This is for where the return is placed.

Manhattan 36x72 24x48 Bullet L-Shape Desk Right Return, Cashmere GrayThe Bullet desk: This Bullet desk is sometimes used in the place of a standard desk in an office. It’s also called a D-top desk, peninsula desk, Key-top and P-top desks.  It takes the place of the standard desk in the “L” desk configuration. The Bullet desk looks like the cross section of a bullet when looked at from above. It has a rounded end and is usually supported by a post made from metal. This type of desk is great for multiple users that are meeting at the desk.

The Partner Desk: The Partner or Partner’s Desk is a double desk. It’s two pedestal desks made as one large desk joined in the front. It’s used for two people to work facing each other.

Deciding what desk you want is more of a personal choice that anything. It is also a functional choice. So, do you want something large and impressive? Or do you want a desk which other people can sit around and go over a team project? Perhaps you like the idea of sharing a desk, sharing ideas and facing across from someone. The right desk would make it handy to pass files back and forth and check each other’s progress.

Or maybe you want lots of room to spread out, like the Executive U? So, with the right choice, you can make for your office one of comfort and functionality. Again, if you would like to see these desks, just follow the links.

The Versatility of Training Tables

Knoll Reff Used 2 Drawer 36 Inch Lateral, Maple

The training room in your business facility is an important area of your business. What goes on here are the meetings, lectures and brainstorming which may be done on a day to day basis. Of course; this is also where meetings are held that deal with training about new product lines or compliance issues. So, since a lot of time is spent in these rooms by your employees, you want these rooms designed for effectiveness and versatility. So, having tables which you can move around and fit into different arrangements is beneficial for this.

Different types of training tables

goSIT Nesting Mobile Training TablesThere are different types of training tables, one is the flip-flop table or flipper. These tables save space and will organize nicely against a wall when no one is using them. The tables are easy to operate and have locks that will keep them in place so that the tables are stable. Because the tables can be moved around so easily, the rooms that they are in can be cleaned up efficiently also and used again quickly when the rooms are needed.

Another type of training table is one with wheels. Tables on wheels are easy to move from place to place. So, if you need to make room for something else that is added during a session, the tables on wheels let you do this without fuss. The important point to consider though is to make sure that the tables you purchase have locking casters. This way a table will stay where it’s put. If you need to move tables around a lot, then this table is the best one for you because you can still unlock the casters.

One other idea for a table is the nesting table. This type of table can be nested into corners, walls and hallways when not in use. They can be stacked on top of each other, convenient when a room is not in use, so the space that they take up is minimal.

The colors, sizes and shapes that all these tables come in are varied. Some of the tops can be wood shades, black, silver or white also. Some of the shapes are different sized rectangles, squares, half-circles, circles and long rectangular.

In addition, when tables can be pushed together and rearranged in any form or shape needed for training sessions. The tables can be used so that if one needs rearranged or moved, this can be done with ease.

Some examples of training tables

Why We Love Our Steelcase Leap V2 Chairs

The Leap Chair took 4 years of research with 11 studies done; using 27 scientists, and 732 participants to test it. Because of this research, information was obtained about how people sit which led to the advanced seating technology of today. So, the Leap Chairs are a wonder to sit in. The back of the chair moves when you move your back. When your arms move, the arms of the chair moves. When you move in your seat, the seat moves as well. This is the first chair designed to mimic and to support the spine as it moves.

What kind of features does the Leap Chair include?

Why We Love Our Steelcase Leap V2 ChairsThere are many ergonomic features of the Leap Chair. One is that the chair’s back moves to support the entire spine when a person changes position. This helps to reduce hunched over posture and lower back sag. These positions can weaken the disc walls, can cause the spine to deteriorate and they stress back ligaments. The chair also has slats in the back and in the seat to help the spine. A special foam in the chair allows breathability to control the balance of moisture and heat for a more comfortable feeling when sitting too. The comfort of the person sitting was a high priority with the design.

In addition, it has an adjustable seat depth that will adjust to different shapes of a person’s body so that you have long-term comfort if you are seated in one. With the lower back firmness control, you can set the control to your degree of firmness you like too so this helps keep the natural curve of the lower spine healthy. Additionally, the telescopic arm controls move the chair arms in and out; plus forward and back for a more natural position. The arms also pivot and adjust up and down for better support of the neck, shoulders, forearms and wrists.

Plus, when you want to recline, you can glide your seat forward. This allows reclining without leaving your Vision and Reach Zone. This will allow you to stay oriented with your work, and because you are in more varied positions that help the spine, there’s less pressure on the spine. On top of that, the edge of the seat will flex when you lean forward or recline which relieves the pressure on back of the legs. Too, there’s an upper back force control. This lets you set the control at the correct amount of push back which will let you recline. Whatever your body size is, it allows just the right amount of support for reclining.

How these features affect your body

Back Side of Steelcase Leap V2 Task ChairResearch shows that your spine doesn’t move together as a single unit, but separately. So, when you recline, your lower spine moves forward and your upper spine moves backward. Everyone’s spine moves differently, no two are alike. Each part of your back requires a different type of support then. So, the lower part of your back needs support that is constant and firm. Your upper back needs more support as you go into a reclining position though. Plus, your vision and reach can impact your posture as well. These discoveries were the guidelines for the design of the Leap Chair.

So, the Leap Chair moves along with you when you are seated in one which reduces pressure on the spine and helps to increase the blood flow to the brain. This also sends oxygen to your muscles by allowing for better blood flow in the body. Since the changes in your posture will help you be more comfortable, it additionally improves your attention span. The Natural Glide System helps you to recline in a comfortable position and reduces strain on your neck arms and eyes as an added included feature.

The Leap Chair has a patented LiveBack technology which will provide for you with both comfort and adjustability that’s effortless. So, it will adjust to bodies of all sizes and shapes. Because Leap mimics the shape of your spine, it will support your body then. This makes you comfortable so that you can better focus and be more productive as you go through your work day.

The Leap Chair is the best chair for you to get through your workday with comfort; a comfort scientifically designed to give you the greatest health.

How to Keep White Fabric and White Leather Chairs Clean

White furniture looks pristine and gives a touch of class to an office. But what about when it becomes dirty from use; or when something has been spilled on it? Then pristine it isn’t anymore. In fact, it looks worse than a tan fabric chair that at least will hide a stain or that you can pass off as having character. So how do you keep white fabric and white leather chairs clean?

White Leather Chairs

How to keep white leather cleanLeather is a great durable material for chairs because of its sturdiness. But the downside is that it’s also very porous so that it will absorb oils from your skin and hands which causes stains. White leather is even worse because it’s more susceptible to noticeable stains. So how do you remove the stains so that your white leather chair is white again?

To begin with, wipe the leather often with a dry microfiber cloth. This will get rid of light soiling and smudges. If you need to clean deeper, you can use a commercial cleaner for leather. You can also make a solution of your own. All you need to do is get some warm water in a small bowl and add dish soap; or some Castile soap. Then add a few drops white vinegar. Next, take a cloth and dampen it with the solution and wipe off the soiled surfaces. You shouldn’t saturate the leather though because if too much water is used, the chair will be ruined. The next step is use a second cloth dampened with water to remove the soap residue.

For stains on white leather

As soon as there’s a spill, it needs to be wiped up so that it doesn’t set in. If the stain is ink, take nail polish remover or rubbing alcohol and wet a cotton ball with this. Then blot the stain gently, but don’t rub it. When the stain is gone, when use a solution of mild dish soap and water to clean the area. Wipe off residue with a clean damp cloth.

If there’s grease or oil on the chair from a person’s hands or hair, sprinkle some cornstarch or baking soda on the offensive spot. Gently rub it in and let sit for a couple of hours or even overnight depending how bad the stain is. The cornstarch or baking soda will absorb the oil and grease. Take a soft cloth and wipe off the powder.

Another option for stains is to combine lemon juice and Cream of Tartar together into a paste. Put it on the stain and let in sit there for about 30 minutes. Dampen a clean sponge and use it to remove the paste. A combination of lemon jouce and Cream of Tartar will work almost like a bleach, and this will help to remove the stain.

How to Keep white fabric chairs clean

Haworth Zody Gray and White with Fixed Arms

  • W=this means that the chair can be cleaned with a water based cleaning solution. This also means the chair is made with the most durable of the fabrics.
  • S=this means that the chair can only be cleaned with a cleaning solvent (it means dry clean only) or a product which is water free. It will not clean well if water is used and may be damaged.
  • SW or WS=this means a water based product or a dry-cleaning product can be used without damaging the furniture. This type of coded furniture should only be used in areas where there is low traffic though.
  • X=this means the chair had to be professionally cleaned; don’t touch it!

Keeping your white furniture clean isn’t difficult if you keep up with the spots and use the products that are best for cleaning the furniture that you have in the office.

Why Should You Purchase Steelcase Avenir Cubicles?

Office cubicles are used in most offices and have benefits for both the employees and the employers. One of the benefits for the employees is that they can exchange ideas back and forth more readily because there are cubicles designed with lower walls between the divides of the cubicles. Another key benefit is that the separate cubicles also can have doors that can be closed when employees want privacy and they don’t want to be interrupted. This is important if employees need time for deep concentration on important projects.Steelcase Avenir Cubicle Workstation

The benefits for the employer is that a well-designed office where employers welcome employees making workspaces extensions of the employees’ personal tastes is a welcoming place to work in. This leads to higher productivity and a happier workforce. This means greater profits and less employee turnover. All this can be accomplished with cubicles since the employees have walls and individual spaces that they can decorate.

Also, if your office has an open floor plan without walls, employees can become too easily distracted by other employees’ conversations, phones which are ringing and other distractions. Cubicles with walls help to eliminate the distractions.

So, with cubicles, there is a proper balance between openness for collaboration with other employees and privacy. It’s provides for work areas that are private enough for employees to work in, but not too private so that they can get lost in unproductive time. In addition, cubicles help keep work contained in the area it needs to be done in so that it isn’t spread out everywhere. There are file drawers, shelves and laminated work surfaces to keep everything under control in cubicles too.

Cubicles also give a professional appearance to your office layout; this improves cooperation and interaction among your employees. When your employees want to have privacy without interruptions they can simply close their doors then. If they want collaboration and interaction with fellow colleagues, then the door can be opened. It’s so simple. So, you will find that your employees will get more work completed faster.

The Benefits of Budget Friendly Humanscale Chairs

There is probably nothing worse than sitting in an office chair that’s uncomfortable. It hurts your back; the arms won’t adjust and when you do stand up you can’t walk straight till the kinks work their way out. This is not only painful, but it cuts into your productivity. You can’t concentrate at work if you’re hurting too. So, this is where the Humanscale Freedom Chair comes into play.

Why Humanscale Chairs?

Humanscale Freedom Task ChairWhen you’re looking for an office chair, ergonomic support is the best way to go. Ergonomic chairs come in all sizes and shapes also such as with the Freedom Chair. They additionally have an assortment of settings so that you can choose the settings that fit your body perfectly. You can adjust the arms to the height that you’d like then as well as your seat height also. You work output will improve just because of the way that you’re comfortably sitting.

What’s different about the Freedom chair?

One of the first differences you’ll notice about the Freedom Chair is that is has less levers and knobs. Most chairs have enough knobs to become confusing, but the levers and knobs on the Freedom Chair aren’t. Because most of the chair’s movements are made automatically, there are fewer adjustments to be made manually then.

So, you can make the manual adjustments that you want to make. So, the height of the seat is adjusted by a paddle which is positioned on the underside of the chair to the right. All you need to do is to raise it to the height you wish and release the paddle to lock it in that position. Next, you’ll need to adjust your seat so that your legs are comfortable. The paddle for this is under the seat along the front edge. When you raise the paddle, you can slide your seat in and out. When you found the perfect seat depth, then you release the paddle to lock it in place.

Now onto the height adjustment. For the height adjustment, the lever is behind the chair on your right. So, when you press it, you can move the back up and down. When you’ve found the perfect spot for your back, release the lever to lock it. Additionally, the seat will pivot an inch when you recline, and the chair also has a wonderfully shaped low lumbar support.

Humanscale Freedom Task Chair with HeadrestThen there’s the arm adjustment. You wouldn’t really think that adjusting the arms on a chair would make much difference but you’d be surprised. Because where your arms are affects where your back is. So, the arms of the chair are supported from the back of the chair on the Freedom Chair. They’re on extended tubular steel supports. A great feature too is that anytime the arms aren’t going to be in use, you can lower them to seat level and they disappear. When you want them back up again, you grip the front edge of the arms and give them a little twist backwards. This causes the arms to be released and you can lift them up or down to where you want them to be. Just let go of them when you have them in the position that you want them in.

Finally, there is the optional headrest. It has two vertical supports which you use to adjust it with. Here, you reach over your shoulders, grip it on each side and pull or push it to raise it, or lower it to the level which suits you. The best part is that the rest is a curved shape. This allows you to either rest your head or your neck on it. In the recline position, the support is comfortable.

And the rest

Because of the heavy counter balanced mechanism, it does all the heavy lifting without effort which is why it needs so little in lever or knob control. The counter balance sense’s the user’s weight and automatically moves the seat and back of the chair where it should be. Also, because of the automated inbuilt controls, it will adjust to whatever your needs are.

In addition, it comes in gray, black fabric and black leather to match any office décor.

If you have an office chair which is hurting your back or is just plain uncomfortable, check out this chair.
