A good office chair is going to help you maintain a neutral posture. That means sitting with your feet flat on the floor; your knees slightly higher than your hips; and your hips, shoulders, and ears all lined up with each other. And since that position will be slightly different for each person, the best way to find that neutral posture is with an adjustable chair — one that’s as intuitive as possible. That’s why Bautch likes the chairs from Humanscale, a New York City–based office furniture company that’s designs chairs that have “minimum amount of levers with maximum amount of adaptability for the person sitting in it.” Their Freedom office chair, for instance, uses what’s called “self-adjusting recline,” which allows the sitter to change the chair’s angle simply by leaning back, rather than fussing with a separate lever.

I already had one of these that I sat on at work while I was pregnant. I just brought it home and bounced the babe on there when he was sad. Not exactly essential, and looks a little insane in your living room or nursery, but my knees needed a break and it was there for me.
