How long should a commercial office chair last?

Commercial office chair service life at OfficeFurniture2go.com is a key specification metric. BIFMA X5.1 certification tests chairs to 5-year commercial use cycles at minimum — most quality commercial chairs are designed for 8–12 years. We specify chairs with warranties that reflect this service life: 5-year to lifetime warranties on commercial frames indicate manufacturer confidence in longevity. A $450 commercial chair lasting 10 years is a better investment than a $150 chair replaced every 2.5 years. Call 1-800-460-0858 for life-cycle cost analysis.
