What is a waterfall seat edge on a stacking chair and why is it important?

A waterfall seat edge is a gently curved, downward-sloping front edge on the seat pan rather than a sharp 90° edge. The waterfall design reduces pressure on the underside of the thighs at the seat edge — a key comfort improvement for seated users whose feet don't quite reach the floor, or for chairs with a slightly lower seat height. For stacking chairs used in training rooms or during long presentations, a waterfall seat edge is a meaningful comfort feature. Most commercial stacking chairs rated for conference or training use include a waterfall front edge; economy stacking chairs for short-duration use often have a flat seat edge.
