A swivel chair with 180-degree rotation is primarily intended for the dining table or conference table, not as an office swivel chair for a desk. The ability to rotate in a semicircle allows for relaxed sitting and provides flexibility in movement.
These swivel chairs are ideal for tables with less space behind the chairs, as you only need to swivel the chair to sit down and stand up, rather than having to move it.
What are the advantages of such a swivel chair?
Most swivel chairs have a rotation of up to 180 degrees in a semicircle. This provides increased flexibility at the table; you can easily turn to face the person next to you or reach distant objects more easily. 
When standing up and sitting down, you don't need a lot of space behind the chair; you can simply rotate the chair 90 degrees and don't have to move it away from the table.
This semicircle rotation capability is also ideal for elderly and mobility-impaired individuals. The chair is rotated 90 degrees to the table, the person sits down or can be helped into the chair, and then simply rotated towards the table surface.
Upholstered chairs with a swivel base are usually armchairs with comfortable armrests and a padded seat. The armrests allow the forearms and hands to rest and enable additional sitting positions that are not possible without armrests. The armrests also provide a bit more 'elbow room' as the chairs are slightly wider than regular chairs without armrests.
Another advantage of design swivel chairs is their high-quality appearance. If you value that certain something extra in your dining area or conference room, you simply can't do without swivel chairs with armrests.
The wide selection of seat cushions makes a swivel chair universally applicable. Fabric, suede look, faux leather, genuine leather, mesh cover – there is a wide variety of upholstery options for swivel chairs. In most cases, a damp cloth and neutral soap are sufficient for cleaning to remove any stains; dust can often be removed with a vacuum cleaner. For genuine leather chairs, a gentle leather cleaner and leather cream are recommended.
The design upholstered chairs also go perfectly with live edge dining tables. Especially the stylistic difference between a more rustic live edge table and a modern upholstered swivel chair creates a very appealing ensemble and an attractive contrast.
What are the differences between the various swivel chairs?
In addition to color, material, surface texture, and the shape of the seat shell, different frame types are an important distinguishing feature.
For frames, besides the classic four-legged frame, there are swivel chairs with spider frames and those with double strut guides, which create a more delicate look.
The frame for swivel chairs for dining tables and conference tables usually has a 180-degree rotation option, but there are also variants with 360-degree rotation.
