Would this chair work for a computer office chair? Do you think the arm rests would get in the way of typing on a keyboard? Thank you.

I bet it would work, but as pictured it is fairly reclined in its upright position.

I wouldn't use it for that. Its a little low setting for a desk. Armrest aren't that high tho.

I would not use it my office because 1. it is too low; and 2. it swivels and reclines, but is not on wheels or casters and therefore does not move in relation to a desk.

I don't think so. It is too short; plus, it is further set back, so it will be difficult to reach out.

I no longer have this chair. Didn't use it for a computer desk chair. It was very comfortable.

Hi, my wife bought this chair for her office and she uses it with a little lap table for her laptop. I guess it can work the same way with a wireless keyboard. If you are working on a desk , it will work if the desk is high enough to allow the arm rests to go under.Hope the answer helps.

This chair, although comfortable, is too wide for an office chair. also, you cannot adjust the height.

My dining chairs do not have arms so I can't try it out for you. It looks as if it can fit on chairs that have arms because the tray itself looks higher than where arms would be placed and the base it not too wide. It looks like the chair has to be flat I have a chair cushion and this product sits on that. There is a recline option but it is just for the back rest.

Yes, I have both pieces. And you are correct. The chair will not slide under the desk. But it is fine for working, writing etc. it may not fit well in a toght space.

It's not high enough to sit at a desk. I have a lap desk for a wireless keyboard and mouse, and I also have my monitor on an arm that I can adjust. That's how I can work from this chair. It's certainly comfortable, but it won't replace a traditional desk chair.

I use an office chair with arms because I really like my chair. It has to be comfortable more than aesthetic.

Yes, that's what I use it for. But check the width of your laptop, keyboard, a/o monitor. I have my laptop on it, leaving just enough room for a mouse. Also isn't the best solution, ergonomically speaking. You really need your keyboard, monitor, and mouse at different heights. But this is a good, cheap interim solution for getting off your butt at the office.

It would probably depend on how wide the arms are. If they are like a dining room chair, probably not, but wider arms might work.

Yes, it would work great as a computer desk! Just make sure you have a very low chair, as the desk is not as high as it looks in the picture. I use it for doing work on my laptop.

A typewriter's keys sit a bit higher than a flat laptop keyboard, but with an adjustable chair it should work. Its quite sturdy and should handle the added weight.

I don't have a computer chair yet. I'm using a small round ottoman. But it does sit low.

The arms can be left off, but in my opinion, they're essential to the comfort of the chair.... as in an armrest when using a keyboard, etc. I agree with the suggestion to try it and see what you like.

It's the height of the arms that may cause a difficulty. My computer desk is at the right height to work on, but the chair arms won't quite fit under it if I have the chair near enough & high enough to be comfortable. It's no big deal, but just means adjusting to sitting slightly away from the desk and the chair can't be moved under it when not in use.

It is for a keyboard. Although, depending on the size of the laptop, it may work for that as well. I have a large laptop (an HP that is 17 inches long and quite wide) that will not fit. Check the product dimensions and measure your laptop to see if it would fit. Please keep in mind that there is a 2 inch wide bar that is glued to the edge for wrist support. There is about 9 inches of width of flat desk that is 27 inches long. So if your laptop is 9 inches wide or less, it would work. I hope this helps!

The center of the armrest 'cup' can only extend about 5 inches over the edge of the desk. It's plenty for elbow movement when using a mouse or keyboard within 12" of front edge of desk.

Lynda, I use the Microsoft 4000 ergo keyboard that is 20 x 11 and there is no problem whatsoever. You can move your keyboard to whatever position you want. My chair has padded round arms, too, and I believe that they include enough adaptors for you to be able to install it on any chair. You should not have any issues.

I use on on my office chair at work which has arms, but it also has an isolated back so it is easy to slip over just the back rest. I have also used it by just placing it on my lounge chair and leaning back into it. This works good also, but sometimes needs to be adjusted since it cannot be strapped in. Hope this helps.

It will possibly be a tight fit. The legs at the base are approximately 18-18.5 inches wide. The arm rests, if you put them on, will bring it to 22 inches wide at the top. It is an excellent chair and is not as slick or slippery as some of the other chairs. If you only need to worry about the base dimensions, then this should work fine. Hope this helps.
