"A correct chair can add as much as 40 productive minutes to the working day." - E.R. Tischauer, "Biomechanical Basis of Ergonomics"

"The chair is the starting point for a properly designed work station." - Centers for Disease Control


"A proper chair is probably the most important purchase, ergonomically speaking, since approximately 70% of all employees work while sitting." - Small Business Success Magazine


The U.S. Health Services Department has provided a list of questions and answers about ergonomics in general. This resource can prove useful in the full set up of an ergonomic workstation, including positioning of monitors, keyboard, and lights as well as ergonomic exercises you and your employees can practice to further prevent on-the-job injuries.

"The chair is the starting point for a properly designed work station." - Centers for Disease Control


Sun's workers' compensation claims fell from $12,000 in 1992 to $2,500 after introduction of ergonomic chairs and other equipment in 2002

It feels a little odd to call the act of sitting "work." Everybody knows that sitting is less physically demanding than walking or standing, right? In Western culture, sitting is synonymous with relaxation itself. Montgomery Burns summed up the prevailing view when he asked, "From the mightiest pharaoh to the lowliest peasant, who doesn't enjoy a good sit?"

But when people are parked in a chair for most of their waking hours, new stresses will cause new aches and pains. Extended periods of sitting are hard on the back, putting added pressure on the intervertebral discs that cushion impact on the spine. And circulation from the feet and legs can be hampered by simple gravity and aggravated by poor chair design, causing numbness and discomfort as blood struggles to return to the heart. The human body simply isn't built to remain in one position for hours at a time.

Institutions with large staffs that spend their workday sitting at computer terminals have begun to recognize the health issues surrounding extended sitting. A World Bank study found that their staff suffered more frequently from lower back pain than from any other disorders. The solution? More comfortable chairs, which the study called "a primordial aspect to consider in terms of staff's well-being at work."

Other studies have reinforced the importance of healthy, supportive chairs. A 2001 study by Cornell University's Human Factors and Ergonomics Laboratory found that workers who were given ergonomic products and trained in their use reported an average 40% decline in musculoskeletal problems in only eight months. The Centers for Disease Control states flatly, "The chair is the starting point for a properly designed work station."

When firms have introduced company-wide ergonomic improvements, the effect on the bottom line has been dramatic. In 1993, employees of Sun Microsystems filed over 300 workers' compensation claims in California alone for repetitive motion injuries related to prolonged computer use. Concerned over the cost of such claims and the attendant loss of productivity, Sun provided ergonomic chairs and other equipment to any employees who requested them. Over the next ten years, claims fell precipitously despite a sharp increase in the number of Sun employees, and the average cost of each claim fell from $12,000 in 1992 to about $2,500 in 2002.

As employers have increasingly felt the economic impact of a cramped and cranky workforce, the ergonomic chair has gone from novelty to necessity. Several manufacturers have marketed high-end ergonomic chairs to companies willing to invest in the health and morale of their employees. Every model offers some of the same supportive features for increased back, neck, and circulatory health, but choosing the right erg chair from a crowded field can be a daunting proposition.

Adding to the confusion is the status and cache that some models have acquired, irrespective of their actual utility. Budgets are tighter and leaner today than just a few years ago, and far fewer employers are willing to pay more for showpiece chairs with the "right" name brand.

So how can you sift through the hype, filter out the noise, and make sense of the bewildering array of choices in the ergonomic-chair field? How can you be sure that dollars spent on these funny-looking high-tech sitting machines will translate into a healthier, happier staff?

In a perfect world, that chair you're sitting in would never cross your mind. You'd be free to focus on the really important stuff, like that looming deadline, that project meeting tomorrow, or that new lunch place everybody's talking about. And best of all, you wouldn't be distracted by the aches and pains you've picked up from sitting at your computer all day.

Multiply these problems by however many people work in your office, and you can practically see the dollar signs flying out the window. Every minute spent worried about comfort, every sick day due to skeleton- muscular complaints, every worker's comp claim adds to the strain on your bottom line.

Since our world isn't perfect, you need a chair that is. The science of ergonomics tells us that well-designed equipment can relieve discomfort and fatigue, and prevent many common work-related health problems. If you sit at a computer desk at work, your armrests should be at the right height for you and your keyboard, and the right width for your shoulders. You should lean toward your screen at the proper angle. Your knees should bend just beyond the edge of the seat, with your feet flat on the floor. Most of all, the lumbar region of your back needs firm support. Prolonged periods of sitting exert pressure on your spine and back, and that can lead to long-term back trouble.

Now consider your chair. Chances are it was designed for some mythical "average person" who only exists on somebody's drawing board. Is the seat height right for you? Is the seat back at a comfortable angle? How about the seat angle? Do you feel like you're sliding out of your chair? And those armrests - do your elbows have to reach outward for them, or are your shoulders hunched because they're too close? You can adjust the WWCS- EZ2 Chair to your personal specifications in all of these areas.

With the WWCS - EZ2 Chair, our design team grants every chair wish you've ever made, and some that you haven't. The adjustable lumbar support reinforces your back where your tired muscles need it most. The waterfall seat design delicately cradles your body, conforming to your unique contours. You may not realize you need a sliding seat pan, to adjust seat depth, but your body does. And your shoulders and middle back will appreciate the WWCS - EZ2 Chair's generously sized chair back. (Everybody pays attention to the lumbar, but the rest of your back needs love, too.)

We understand that you're working under a budget, and you worry that ergonomic chairs are beyond your means. Ask Sun Microsystems how well their ergonomic investment paid off. In 1992, they spent a total of $1.5 million on workers' comp claims for repetitive motion injuries. After introducing ergonomic equipment and training, these expenditures shrunk to less than $100,000 in the first nine months of 2002, despite a huge growth in the number of employees.

WWCS- EZ2 Chair  delivers as much health benefit as any chair in the field, at a fraction of the cost. In the leaner corporate environment of today, it isn't just a nice piece of furniture; it's also a winning investment in the well-being and productivity of you and your workforce.

Features

What makes the  WWCS- EZ2 Chair unique within the task-based swivel chair market?

The WWCS- EZ2 Chair starts with all the industry standard features, combining the best of the conventional wisdom with new twists like our patented dual action synchronous knee pivot control. We believe there are only a few other chairs that offer the range of features that the WWCS- EZ2 Chair provides, but it's important to research which features are most important to you and your workforce. Start here, with this chart listing the features offered by the WWCS- EZ2 Chair  and its competitors. The Ergonomics section of this site offers more detail and resources for further research.


Why is the
WWCS- EZ2 Chair  so much less expensive than most ergonomic chairs?

We assemble the WWCS - EZ2 Chair  from a variety of sources around the world. We search out the components that offer the highest quality at the lowest cost, wherever they may originate, and assemble them ourselves into our own unique chair.


How was the
WWCS- EZ2 Chair designed?

Ergonomic insights have revolutionized office chairs in recent years, but many potential customers have been priced out of the market. In these days of corporate belt-tightening and leaner budgets, we recognized the need for a chair delivering maximum health benefits at a reasonable cost. Every aspect of the WWCS- EZ2 Chair was developed with one goal in mind: to offer an affordable, fully functional chair with a fashionable contemporary look. The WWCS- EZ2 Chair synthesizes form and function without sacrificing economy. This enables us to sell the WWCS- EZ2 Chair  at prices far below chairs with trendier brand names. When you buy an WWCS- EZ2 Chair, you're paying for quality and only quality.


What is the
 WWCS- EZ2 Chair made of?
 

The chair frame consists of nylon, fiber plastic, and high-impact polypropylene, with steel reinforcements. The back is covered in 100% high tenacity polyester mesh, and the base has a five-pointed star shape made of injection aluminum with a powder coating. The WWCS- EZ2 Chair is fully certified by BIFMA (the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturer's Association), and meets all BIFMA standards.


What colors and fabrics are available for the
 WWCS- EZ2 Chair?

The frame is available in dark gray and chrome. Fabric colors include black, bisque, mocha, forest, slate, and a black and gray diamond pattern. Whatever your color scheme, we're confident that you'll be able to coordinate the WWCS- EZ2 Chair's colors with your office.


I'm not sure if the
 WWCS- EZ2 Chair will fit my desk. What are its measurements?

The WWCS- EZ2 Chair is 26" wide at the armrests and 21" at the seat front. In addition, the arms are recessed 8" to ensure a comfortable fit under your work surface or desktop. Depending on your particular adjustment of the WWCS- EZ2 Chair, the height of the seat is between 18" and 22" and the arm rests are generally between ¾" and 1 ½".


Does the
 WWCS- EZ2 Chair come with repair &
 maintenance instructions, and customer support?

Every WWCS- EZ2 Chair is covered by a factory warranty.


How do I keep my
 WWCS- EZ2 Chair clean?

You may clean the frame and the mesh back with mild soap and water, and the seat with a mild shampoo or upholstery cleaner, occasionally or as needed.


Is the
 WWCS- EZ2 Chair useful as a conference room chair?

Yes. The tilting back is particularly helpful in this capacity. We also offer a companion chair, with the same design as the WWCS - EZ2 Chair but on a sled base.

Adjusting Your Chair!

Now that you've got your  WWCS- EZ2 Chair, it's time to get to know it. Proper usage of the ezz-chair is essential for taking full advantage of its features. We understand that the WWCS - EZ2 Chair's array of controls can be a little daunting, but it's not as tough as it looks. We promise. Each feature headline below links to a video to help you. Just take a deep breath and follow these instructions.

Seat Height
seat height
 

 

To properly adjust seat height, use the seat height adjustment located below the seat on the right side. Raise the lever with your weight off the chair and allow the seat to reach its highest point. Then, slowly lower yourself down until your feet are firmly placed on the floor. When the height is set correctly, your hips should be slightly higher than your knees.

 

Seat Pan

Now, on to the seat. The seat pan adjustment control allows you to slide the seat pan forward or backwards in relation to the back, for the best possible knee position. The adjustment control is the most forward lever on the left side of the chair beneath the seat. To adjust the position of the seat, simply lift the lever and slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position. Once you've found the position that's most comfortable, release the lever and the chair will lock in place.

Lumbar Support

Next up is the active lumbar support, which provides continuous support and constant alignment. Simply slide the lumbar support up or down to the proper height.

Back Angle
back angle
 

 

The WWCS - EZ2 Chair  back helps maintain equal distribution of body weight by providing continuous support with no seat rise. The back is lockable in any position. To adjust the angle of the seat back, lift the back tilt lever, which is the rearmost lever below seat level on the left side of the chair. Lean back or forward to the desired position. Then push the lever back down to lock it into place. The back should lock firmly into place.

Back Tension

The resistance of the chair back can be continuously adjusted to provide the most comfortable level of support while you are leaning back in the chair. Simply turn the knob located directly under the middle of the seat to either increase or decrease the resistance of the back.

Arm Height
arm height
 

   

Arm supports are adjustable in both height and width to provide you with the most precise support in a natural sitting position. To adjust arm height, push the button located on the vertical armrest support that's located on each side of the chair. First, push the arms down to their lowest setting. Then, while you are sitting on the chair, relax your shoulders and arms down to your side. Once they are relaxed, raise the arm supports until you can gently rest your elbows and forearms.

Arm Width
arm width

   

Then, to adjust the width of the armrests, use the lever located under the seat, directly in front of the armrest support on each side. Push the lever forward to unlock, then slide the armrest to the desired width. Pull the lever back to lock the armrest into place. Repeat for the other armrest.

Pivot Control
pivot control
 

Finally, the WWCS - EZ2 Chair  offers a unique synchronous knee pivot control that can optimize the chair in three ways: forward, for writing or keyboard work; middle, for normal seating; and rearward, for conferencing or relaxing. To set this adjustment, use the tilt lever, which is the most forward lever on the right side of the chair, under the level of the seat. While leaning back, rotate the lever to one of the three positions.

That wasn't so hard, was it? Don't hesitate to readjust any parts that seem uncomfortable or unnatural. There's no one correct way to sit for everyone, so feel free to shape the WWCS- EZ2 Chair to suit your body. Time spent now learning what the WWCS - EZ2 Chair  can do will pay off in years of healthy sitting!

 

Let's get philosophical for a moment. Imagine you've got an WWCS- EZ2 Chair at your desk right now. While you're enjoying the effortless comfort and admiring the tasteful styling of the WWCS- EZ2 Chair, it may not occur to you to ask where it came from. When was that chair born? How did this mass of metal, plastic and fabric become a beautiful and useful object that you can sit on? As the WWCS-EZ2 Chair traveled the long road from our drawing board to your desk, at what moment did the theory of an WWCS-EZ2 Chair  become the reality?

Like all great ideas, the WWCS- EZ2 Chair is an attempt to answer a puzzling question. We wondered why the proven benefits of ergonomic chair design were confined to the elite who could afford it. Those who stood to gain the most from the ergonomic revolution- employers burdened by the low productivity and workers' comp costs associated with repetitive motion injuries- were shut out of the market. Certainly, in an era of economic uncertainty and slimmer corporate budgets, there was a need for a high-quality ergonomic chair with a reasonable price tag. We decided to find a way to meet that need.

If we look back far enough into the WWCS - EZ2 Chair  family tree, we see miners pulling iron and aluminum from a hillside, and huge furnaces forging iron into steel. We see liquid plastic pouring into molds, and polyester threads weaving into mesh. We see an idea taking shape.

We don't see an actual chair taking shape until we look at the international network of suppliers that construct and assemble the WWCS- EZ2 Chair's many components. We've scoured the globe to find the parts that offer higher quality at lower prices, from experienced companies with a successful track record of providing precision components. While the mesh fabric is stretched over the skeletal structure of the chair back, aluminum is shaped into a five-pointed star for the base, and covered in a powder coating. Fire retardant foam is molded into a seat shape covered in fabric. As these parts are assembled from sources around the world we see the first glimmer of recognition, the first glimpse of the full-function office chair to come.

Then, as trucks and planes bring the components to our facility in St. Louis, our assembly team unites them with American-made controls that are tailored to our exact specifications. The reclining back sliding seat pan mechanism is bolted to the chair body, and the armrests are attached, along with their width and height controls. Our unique, custom-designed lumbar support is added to the mix. As a last step in the process, the WWCS- EZ2 Chair is put through a battery of testing performed by independent laboratories to ensure structural integrity and safety. The end result is not just a chair anymore; it's the fully-formed WWCS - EZ2 Chair, in the shape you will come to know and love.

But if a chair is defined as a piece of furniture that people sit on, one could say that the WWCS- EZ2 Chair isn't really finished until somebody uses it. Open the crate, unwrap the WWCS- EZ2 Chair, have a seat and let the WWCS- EZ2 Chair spring into life at long last in its new home. Pop the instructional CD into your computer and the WWCS- EZ2 Chair will introduce itself to you as you learn how to set the armrests for your height and width, slide the seat pan into just the right position and perform other adjustments to make the WWCS- EZ2 Chair your very own. For all the work that goes into the WWCS- EZ2 Chair, for all the moments that add up to a living, breathing work of ergonomic art, this is the moment that matters: when you climb aboard at the last stop on its journey. Your new WWCS- EZ2 Chair will help support your body, and your bottom line, for years to come. If you'd like to join the adventure, contact us about bringing the WWCS- EZ2 Chair to your home or office.
