An ergonomic office chair that's ready for work, rest and play

Buying an office chair used to be simple. You'd find something sturdy and comfortable-looking, in the knowledge that at most you'd be sitting in it for a few hours a few hours a day.

These days, though, you need to put a lot more thought into finding the best office chair. With many of us working from home at least some of the time, you need an ergonomic chair that'll keep you properly supported, long-term. And chances are that you won't just use it for working. You might use it for gaming, for sitting back and watching videos, or simply for relaxing if your home office is also your living room.

Frankly, most office chairs aren't suitable for such varied use. Not only that, we don't all sit in the same way; you might prefer to lean forward, sit up straight or even recline, you might change positions throughout the day, and the last thing you want is to find out that your new chair doesn't feel right in your preferred position.

Fortunately a solution is at hand. The new EP600 ergonomic chair from Boulies is designed to adapt to your needs, and it's built for everything from everyday work, downtime gaming and lounging around in the evenings. Here's what you need to know.

A chair that moves with you and adapts to you

The Boulies EP600 is more than just an office chair. It's an adaptive and flexible chair that's built to support different people and different postures at different parts of the day, with premium features that mean you won't have to spend ages fiddling around with it to find the ideal fit.

We all understand the importance of good lumbar support when you're sitting at a desk all day, and having lumbar support that's tailored to you is much better than a one-size-fits-all solution. The EP600 offers just that — you can adjust the lumber height and the support angle — but it goes one step further.

It features a 4D adaptive lumbar system that's designed to deliver continuous lower back support whenever you switch your sitting position. So if you tend to change your posture throughout the day you'll always get the lower back support you need; however if you generally stay in one position you can instead lock the lumbar system so it provides more consistent support.

To keep your arms comfortable, whatever your sitting position, the EP600 also features Boulies 6D armrests so you can easily get that just-right feel. You can adjust their height, depth and angle, you can rotate them 360°, and if you need more freedom of movement they can also be flipped up and moved out of the way.

What this all adds up to is a chair that's thoroughly comfortable and supportive in every sitting position. But there's more.

All the ergonomic adjustments you need

Almost every aspect of the Boulies EP600 can be adjusted to fit your own requirements. The chair is designed to accommodate anyone between around 5'5" and 6'3" in height, with a host of ergonomic adjustments to help you get that perfect fit.

There's a 70mm backrest height adjustment that gives you precise support for your torso length and body proportions, a 50mm seat depth adjustment to accommodate different leg lengths while providing extra thigh support and reducing pressure behind your needs, and you can adjust both the height and the angle of the headrest for optimal head and neck support.

You also get adjustments for when you've finished work for the day and want to chill out for a while: the EP600's backrest reclines by up to 120° and can be locked into the most comfortable position for you, and if you really want to relax there's also an integrated footrest that can be extended from beneath the seat, then stowed away neatly when it's time to get back to business.

It's not just for the office

Boulies is a professional adjustable chair brand, but its EP600 chair is designed for more than just a professional setting. Having a dedicated office chair that's just for work isn't something that suits everyone; your home office space during the day might be your gaming or creative space in the evening, and it might also be part of your wider living space.

This means finding a chair that fits in every environment, and the EP600 does just that. Its clean, understated design means that it'll fit into both home and office interiors, while its adjustable and ergonomic features ensure that it's suitable for whatever you're doing at any time.

Boulies believes that its products should adapt to people — not the other way around. So if you're looking for more than a chair to sit on while you're working, the EP600 is available now from Boulies at a launch price of $429.99 / £359.99, and it’s a serious choice that'll fit in with your needs throughout the day.
