What height is the most suitable for furniture?

Now low furniture is popular in the market. Even the furniture advertisements in fashion magazines mostly publicize some low tables to reflect their unique personality and fashionable style. But do you know that although many low furniture are fashionable and unique, their height is unreasonable. Long term use can easily affect the spine, lumbar spine, cervical spine, vision, shoulder, elbow, knee and leg joints of the body, and bury many hidden diseases.

1. Table

When standing, spread your hands flat. The distance between the palm and the ground is the height of the table that best suits you. If the table is too low, the upper body will involuntarily lie on the table, and the head will lower. If you bend down and lower your head for a long time, the spine, waist and neck are easy to be sore and tired. In serious cases, it will even cause diseases such as spondylosis, lumbar muscle strain and cervical spondylosis.

2. Chair

The height difference of tables and chairs shall be between 280mm and 300mm, and the height under the writing desk shall not be less than 580mm and the width shall not be less than 520mm. When sitting on a chair with two feet flat, if the thighs are parallel to the ground and the lower legs can be basically perpendicular to the ground, the height of the chair is appropriate. The chair is too close to the ground. When people sit on it, it is difficult to straighten their legs. The lower limbs are in a curved state, and the leg joints cannot be relaxed. For a long time, the legs, waist and arms are very prone to fatigue, which may lead to some waist diseases and arthritis.

6. Tea table

The height of the tea table should be the same as that of the sofa seat, so that we can easily take things on the table. The tea table is too low. When people take things, the strength of their arms and waist have to be lowered, which is easy to damage their waist and back.

7. TV cabinet

The height of the TV cabinet should ensure that the audience's line of sight after sitting is just in the center of the TV screen. If the cabinet is too low, it will cause overlooking, and the head will drop involuntarily, which is bad for the cervical spine and vision. If it is a wall mounted TV, the height of the TV cabinet can be ignored.

8. Kitchen utensils

In general, the height of the stove top is about 65cm-70cm, and the operation console and dishwasher are about 80-85cm. Similarly, if the kitchen utensils are too low, people often need to bend down in the process of cooking, and the neck and legs are easily tired due to involvement, which is easy to cause repeated strain and injury to the waist, back, spine and neck.

The above dimensions need to be determined according to their own conditions. There is no strict standard. It mainly depends on the height of the main users.

In short, when purchasing furniture, we should not only pay attention to the fashionable appearance, but must try it in person to feel comfortable, effortless, not easy to fatigue and flexible.
