Executive Chairs have three distinct groupings according to their basic functions. Opposite is a quick guide to these functions to give an understanding of the main features of each different model.

Functions aside, each model will have a varying standard of operating control mechanism, seat foam and design. Executive chairs generally have the same basic operating functions, regardless of price. They all have gas height adjustment, swivel action, and tilting action. However, there are different methods of achieving these operations.

    
    1. Shape and size of chair seat and back.
    2. Size and quality of chair base.
    3. Quality and fitting of chair mechanism.
    4. Ease of chair adjustments.
    5. Warranty.
    6. Technology.

ACTION LEVEL 2 - This mechanism is far more substantial than the standard action. As well, the chair may be locked into any desired position in the tilt range.

ACTION LEVEL 3 - The normal chair actions are based around a chair stem. A front pivot chair pivots from under the chair front or knee area. The object is to remove the direct pressure felt in a normal chair, and gives the feeling of floating on air. The most advanced models will have a mechanism far superior and with unique features over and above the level 1 and level 2 actions. This will vary from model to model, and we would suggest that you thoroughly examine any level 3 action chair. You will note the the action is markedly larger and heavier and the chair more substantial. These chairs are recommended for 24 hour seating application.
