A Seat Extender, also known as a seat depth extender or seat cushion extender, is an accessibility accommodation designed to increase the depth of a chair seat. This adjustment helps individuals who have longer legs or require additional thigh support to sit comfortably and maintain proper posture. By extending the seating surface, it reduces pressure on the back of the knees and promotes better circulation, which can alleviate discomfort during prolonged sitting. Seat Extenders are commonly used in workplaces, schools, and public spaces to adapt standard seating for people with varying body sizes or mobility needs, enhancing overall comfort and accessibility.
To use a Seat Extender, place it securely on the existing chair seat, aligning it to extend the seating surface evenly. Adjust the extender so it fits snugly without slipping, providing stable support. Regularly check for wear and clean the extender according to manufacturer instructions to maintain hygiene. Combining the extender with ergonomic seating practices, such as proper back support and foot positioning, enhances comfort and reduces strain throughout the day.
