Conference Room Seating — Expert Answer
What is a conference chair with a four-star base?
A four-star base uses four radiating arms on the central column and is considered less stable than a five-star base under BIFMA standards. Four-star bases are occasionally used on lighter-use conference or guest chairs. Four-star designs are generally not recommended for primary conference room seating due to inferior tip-over resistance. OfficeFurniture2go.com recommends five-star base chairs for conference room applications — call 1-800-460-0858.
