What is a waterfall seat edge on an office chair?

A waterfall seat edge is a gentle downward curve at the front of the seat pan — instead of a hard or straight edge, the seat contours downward, reducing pressure on the back of the thighs and improving circulation to the lower legs. This design distributes the user's weight more evenly across the seat and prevents the "cutting" sensation that straight seat edges cause after extended sitting. Waterfall edges are standard on ergonomic chairs and increasingly common on commercial task chairs. FindOfficeFurniture.com carries office chairs with proper waterfall seat edges — call 888-719-4960.
