Mesh back or foam back — which ergonomic chair is better?

For most people doing all-day desk work, mesh wins: it breathes freely so you don't overheat, conforms to your back as you shift positions, and distributes pressure more evenly than a static foam panel. High-quality elastomeric mesh provides real support while still flexing naturally. Foam backs feel firmer, but they trap heat and don't adapt as you move throughout the day. If you run warm or sit 6–8 hours straight, mesh is almost always the smarter call. See both options side by side at FindOfficeFurniture.com or call 888-719-4960.
