What is the difference between an executive chair and a conference chair?

Executive chairs are designed for long-duration use at a private desk — high backs, full padding, tilt mechanisms, and premium upholstery. Conference chairs are designed for shorter meeting use — typically mid-back, sled or 4-legged base (no casters for conference rooms), and coordinated upholstery. Conference chairs prioritize sleek aesthetics and easy movement in and out of; executive chairs prioritize ergonomic comfort for sustained sitting. Some buyers use the same chair for both purposes.
