What exactly is a drafting chair and when do you need one instead of a regular office chair?

A drafting chair is a tall task chair built for use at elevated work surfaces — drafting tables, counter-height desks, standing desks set to seated mode, and lab or production benches. Unlike a standard office chair that tops out at around 20–22” of seat height, a drafting chair adjusts higher — typically 22–30” or more — to match surfaces that are 36” to 46” tall. Most drafting chairs include a built-in footrest ring so your legs aren’t dangling at height. If you work at any surface taller than a standard 29–30” desk, a drafting chair is the right seating solution.
