How do I choose between a drafting chair and a standard task chair?

Choose a drafting chair when your primary work surface is counter-height (34"+) or when you use a sit-stand desk in its raised position. Use a standard task chair for desks at standard 28"–30" height. The key difference is seat height range: standard task chairs top out at 20"–22" seat height, which is far too low for elevated surfaces. Using a standard chair at a counter-height desk forces the user into an unergonomic elevated shoulder posture.
