# Best ergonomic office chairs with a footrest Source: https://chairandposture.co.uk/best/best-office-chair-with-footrest Publisher: Chair and Posture. Picks are based on what the Amazon listings state, not on hands-on testing. Method: https://chairandposture.co.uk/how-we-pick A pull-out footrest turns a desk chair into somewhere to lean back during a call or a break. The catch is that many footrest chairs are really recliners with a few desk features added, and they can fall short when you sit upright to type. The chairs worth considering keep the basics right: a lumbar support you can position, armrests that adjust, a tilt that locks upright, and a load rating that suits you. This guide compares seven footrest chairs from Elabest, Hbada, Flexispot, LarkLeaves and Efomao on the footrest itself, the recline range, lumbar, armrests and maximum load. All facts come from the listings. If a listing does not give the footrest length or seat travel, we say so, because those details decide whether the chair suits a small room. ## Products ### 1. ELABEST X100 Ergonomic Office Chair with Footrest - Full Mesh Desk Chair Footrest: 46 cm, 2 angles; Recline: 3 stages to 120°; Lumbar: 3D, height, depth, angle; Armrests: 5D, flip-up; Max load: 136 kg A full-mesh chair with a 46 cm two-angle footrest, 3D lumbar and 5D flip-up arms, built to EN 1335. It suits hybrid workers who want proper desk adjustment and a footrest for breaks. In its favour: - The lumbar adjusts about 4 cm in depth, 5 cm in height and 15° in angle, more control than most footrest chairs. - Seat height runs from 46.5 to 58.5 cm, and Elabest quotes a fit range of about 155 to 190 cm. - The 5D armrests adjust in height, width, depth and rotation, then flip up 90° to clear the desk. Good to know: - Recline stops at 120°, shallower than several rivals here, so it is less of a lie-back chair. - The 136 kg rating is moderate for a chair aimed at long sessions. ### 2.

Good to know: - The footrest adds bulk under the seat, which some desk setups do not need. - The listing does not give the seat depth travel in centimetres. ### 4.

It suits a home office where the chair also doubles as a reading seat. In its favour: - The backrest has 5 height levels, so the lumbar area can be lined up with your lower back. - A 145° tilt is the deepest recline among the mesh chairs in this guide. - Seat, back and headrest are all mesh, which keeps air moving in a warm room.

Good to know: - Seat height travel is only about 8.5 cm, so check it against your desk height. - No seat depth adjustment is mentioned in the listing. ### 6.
