Kids, Students and Petite Users
Children, teenagers and shorter adults share one fitting problem: most chairs are built for a larger body. A seat that is too deep pushes the sitter forward off the backrest, a minimum height that is too tall leaves the feet dangling, and a lumbar pad lands in the wrong place. The chairs that solve this have a shallow or sliding seat, a lower gas lift and a backrest sized to a shorter torso, and children's models are often built to be adjusted again as the child grows. This category lists makers and stores with ranges for smaller sitters, from growing school chairs to petite versions of office models.
