• Back. The height of this component of the chair should end in the middle of the blades. The best option would be to purchase a chair with an adjustable back, so parents can independently adjust it to the required criterion. If the back is not regulated, then for the purchase you need to take a student with you to make sure the purchase is correct.

• Additionally worth noting that the back in the lumbar region should be curved inward. This is required in order to keep the lower back in the correct position.
• Armrests. With this part of the chair a little more difficult.

• When choosing a children's furniture attribute, you must make sure that the sitting child does not push the legs under the chair. Therefore, the important point will be the purchase of furniture with a footrest. Then the child will automatically put his feet on the stand, which guarantees the correct fit for the student. However, you can do without it. Then, for a seated child, the legs should be placed with both feet on the floor.
• Sustainability. The design should be strong and not loosen over time.

• Some models of orthopedic children's furniture are equipped with wheels for movement around the apartment. The best option would be the furniture that has 5 wheels on the legs. This will ensure maximum stability of the structure.

• Marking Hard chairs for a child are usually labeled by age.

• For hard chairs there is one feature: since there is no adjustment in this category of furniture, it is necessary to seat the child on the chair before buying and look at the angle between the lower leg and the hip. If the angle is different from the direct, then such furniture will not work. Indeed, for the correct landing just such an angle is necessary.
• Adjustment. In order not to buy furniture for the child every year, it is advisable to look at such a model where the seat is height adjustable.

• Structural strength. The most durable options are chairs made from cast steel or aluminum.
• In some advanced cases, when the posture is already damaged, it is better to consult a doctor. He will indicate the required characteristics for an orthopedic chair.
• To change the situation in the nursery is better to get additional protective equipment for the chair. Covers can become them: for a teenager - these are moderate tones, for a first grader - bright and saturated shades.In addition, the cover is easier to remove and wash than to clean the furniture itself from dirt.
