What should a petite or short person (under 5'4") specifically look for in an ergonomic chair?

Beyond seat height minimum (look for 15"–16.5"), petite users should check that the lumbar support can adjust to 6"–7" above the seat (not just the standard 8"–10" range that fits taller users), and that the backrest height doesn't push a headrest into the back of the skull at seated eye level. Seat depth adjustment down to 15" prevents the seat from cutting behind the knees of shorter-legged users. Footrests are often still necessary even with a properly adjusted petite chair, depending on desk height.
