FAQs About Haus® Office Chair in Malaysia

Office chairs in Malaysia usually range from under RM200 for basic models to over RM25,000 for designer pieces. At Haus®, Vitra office chairs start from MYR 2,639 for task chairs and go up to MYR 24,563 for executive models. Prices reflect designer pedigree, material quality, and long-term durability.

A quality office chair used 8 hours a day for 5 years costs under RM2 per day at Haus®' entry price of MYR 2,639. The practical case for spending more: better lumbar support, longer-lasting materials, and full adjustability that fits your body rather than forces adaptation. For daily desk work, the investment holds up.

For sessions of 6 hours or more, a mesh-back ergonomic task chair is the practical choice for Malaysia's climate. Mesh allows airflow and reduces the heat buildup that fabric upholstery traps. Look for adjustable lumbar support and seat depth, these two features have the most impact on fatigue reduction over a full workday.

Haus® ships office chairs across Malaysia through its online store. The full Vitra collection is available online with door-to-door delivery. For delivery timelines, bulk orders, or corporate fitout enquiries, contact the team via WhatsApp at +60 12 638 7966.

Yes. Haus® has a showroom at 28G The Row, Jalan Doraisamy, Kuala Lumpur where the full Vitra office chair range is on display. Open Monday to Friday 10am–7pm, Saturday 11am–6pm, and Sunday by appointment. Testing chairs in person before buying is recommended, as individual fit varies between models.

Choosing the right ergonomic office chair starts with matching the chair's adjustability range to your body dimensions and daily working hours:

1. Lumbar support: should sit at the hollow of your lower back at waist height. Adjustable depth gives a more precise fit than a fixed pad.
2. Seat height: feet flat on the floor, knees at roughly 90 degrees. This varies between individuals and should be easy to adjust without tools.
3. Seat depth: aim for a 2 to 4 cm gap between the back of your knee and the seat front edge. This prevents circulation pressure on long sessions.
4. Armrests: elbows at approximately 90 degrees, shoulders relaxed and not raised. A wider adjustment range means better fit across different desk heights.
5. Recline resistance: a slight backward angle reduces spinal compression. Look for adjustable resistance, not just a tilt lock.

Task chairs, executive chairs, and conference chairs each serve a different work function and are built to different ergonomic and aesthetic standards.

• Task chairs prioritise adjustability for 6 to 8 hours of individual desk work. The Physix and ID Mesh series are examples.
• Executive chairs have taller backs and a formal appearance suited to managerial offices. The Grand Executive Highback is an example.
• Conference chairs are designed for shorter sessions and a uniform appearance across a room. The AC 5 Meet and Physix Conference are purpose-built for this use.

For full-day desk work, task chairs deliver better ergonomic value than executive models.

For a home office in Malaysia, the right chair depends on daily hours at the desk, available space, and whether the chair needs to fit a residential interior aesthetically.

• For full workdays of 6 or more hours: the Physix series and ID Mesh chairs offer full lumbar and armrest adjustability for extended sitting.
• For part-time use under 4 hours: the Rookie and AC 5 Work are compact options suited to a study or spare room.
• For design-conscious interiors: the Softshell Chair and Mynt work as both office seating and residential pieces.

Mesh and upholstered office chairs serve different needs depending on sitting duration and environment.

• Mesh backrests allow airflow, which reduces heat buildup during long sessions, the more practical choice for Malaysia's climate and full day desk work.
• Upholstered chairs offer a softer feel and a more formal appearance, better suited for executive offices or meeting rooms where aesthetics come first.
• A padded seat with a mesh back is a common middle ground in task chairs, combining airflow with cushioning.

At Haus®, mesh options include the ID Mesh and Physix series; upholstered and leather models include the Grand Executive Highback and Fauteuil Direction Pivotant.

The main difference between Vitra and most ergonomic chairs sold in Malaysia comes down to design origin, testing standards, and build intent. Most local options are practical choices built around adjustability at accessible price points. Vitra differs in three ways:

1. Design origin: developed jointly by engineers and internationally recognised designers.
2. Testing depth: up to 54 assessments per chair; 15 years of daily use simulated. The European standard requires 16 tests.
3. Build positioning: designed as long-term pieces, not replacement-cycle products.
