Alea Office Chair

Office seating for varied workspaces

Alea’s 4-star chairs offer a coordinated option for furnishing individual desks, shared work areas or meeting spaces. The family includes armless and armrest designs, as well as both a polypropylene shell and a fabric-upholstered chair. This gives workplace planners a few practical ways to match seating to the room and its day-to-day use.

All three models have a swivel design and a powder-coated metal structure or base. The specific features differ by model, so check the product details before selecting chairs for a particular workspace.

Compare the three chair designs

The Alea 4-Star Armless Swivel Office Chair (ALF068) has a polypropylene shell, no armrests and wheels. The Alea 4-Star Upholstered Swivel Office Chair (DIL261) has fabric upholstery and fixed armrests; its listed upholstery is red. The Alea 4-Star With Armrests Office Chair (ALF062) has a white polypropylene shell and armrests.

Manual height adjustment is specified for ALF062. Do not assume the same adjustment or wheel configuration across the family: compare each model’s listing with the user’s needs and the intended desk setup.

All Alea Office Chair models

Where Alea 4-Star chairs can work

Use the family to furnish workstations, collaborative areas or meeting rooms where a swivel chair fits the layout. The armless ALF068 can be a practical choice when users need a simpler profile or when armrests may get in the way of moving close to a desk. Its wheels are explicitly listed, which may suit a workstation where users need to reposition the chair.

For a more upholstered appearance, consider DIL261, which has a fabric-covered seat and back with fixed armrests. Its red upholstery can add a distinct color accent. ALF062 pairs armrests with a white polypropylene shell and is the model in this group specified with manual height adjustment. Match these features to the way the chair will be used rather than assuming the models are interchangeable.

How to choose between the models

Start with the desk and user

Check the desk height, available floor space and whether users prefer arm support. If armrests are needed, compare the fixed-arm upholstered DIL261 with the polypropylene-shell ALF062. If an armless chair better suits the desk or room, ALF068 is the family’s armless option. Where seat-height adjustment matters, ALF062 is the listed choice with manual adjustment; confirm the product listing for any details relevant to your setup.

Consider finish and upkeep

The family includes polypropylene-shell and fabric-upholstered construction. A shell design may suit a space where a simple, wipeable-looking finish is preferred; fabric may be chosen for a softer visual and seating finish. These are material distinctions, not a substitute for checking cleaning guidance. Across the family, the listed color attributes include multiple upholstery and base colors, but the available combination depends on the selected model. The specific descriptions identify DIL261 upholstery as red and the ALF062 shell as white.

Check before specifying a group

Before ordering for a team, review each model’s dimensions and confirm that it fits the desk and circulation space. Confirm whether a chair has wheels, armrests or height adjustment where those details affect the user or floor layout. Also check the product listing for the finish and color offered on that model; family-level options should not be treated as available on every chair.

Myntwork offers Alea chairs on a monthly lease, which can be considered when planning furniture for a workplace. Compare the individual listings to settle on the right mix for each area, and verify the relevant product details before finalizing a selection.
