When choosing a seat on wheels, you may need to know your weight in pounds or kilogrammes to determine the weight capacity you need. | |||
 |
Where possible, you should sit on the seat to check that it is comfortable. Some seats are flat, while others come with grooves, so choose one that fits your body shape. | |||
 |
The seats on wheels that come with a fixed seat are often designed for users who only require a seat to perform simple maintenance on a vehicle. | |||
 |
The adjustable mechanic’s seats gives the user the option to adjust the height of the seat to enable different working positions.
A number of adjustable seats often come with locking castors, so if you need to stay in one position while working this will be ideal for you. |

If you need to perform a variety of tasks, both in a seated position and whilst lying down, a car creeper seat may be the best option. Many of these come with a built-in tray to store tools and parts. | |||
 |
For tasks that require a great deal of manoeuvrability, a mechanic’s seat with a tripod base may be the best option, as it allows for 360 degree rotation. However, it may cost you a bit more than most other designs. | |||
