of experience in the traditional furniture industry, they say.
The new Web-based venture is offering furniture to accommodate extra height, width or weight in the user. The company is offering products from a variety of manufacturers. The chairs are
designed to be comfortable for the user weighing anywhere from 275 to 500 pounds. Big & Tall also offer chairs that meet bariatric standards for people weighing up to 750 pounds.
The company offers desks that are 33 inches tall's8212;the standard height is 29 inches's8212;to offer extra leg room for the end user.
The owners noted that there was a need for an accessible central location featuring a large variety of chairs and desks that would accommodate people who are out of the norm,
size-wise.
In this initial phase of development, the company is hosted on eBay to allow on-line payments and shipping to the continental United States. To learn more visit the company website
