This ergonomic website provides users with a lot of products. The website has many pictures, ideas, and products for different settings. The only downside of the site is it is very company based.

Agree with Autumn1's comment...terrific resource workspace accessibility products. Description should be changed though as I could not find the 8 question quiz.

This website provides a great number of products for many different environments to help increase the ergonomics, however, the 8 question quiz does not seem to be on this site anymore. The quiz would be a very useful tool for a person to get recommendations on which products they should consider.

It took me several years of struggling with the heavy door to my building, sometimes having to wait until a person stronger came along, to realize that the door was an accessibility problem, not only for me, but for others as well. And I did not notice, until one of my students pointed it out, that the lack of signs that could be read from a distance at my university forced people with mobility impairments to expend a lot of energy unnecessarily, searching for rooms and offices. Although I have encountered this difficulty myself on days when walking was exhausting to me, I interpreted it, automatically, as a problem arising from my illness (as I did with the door), rather than as a problem arising from the built environment having been created for too narrow a range of people and situations.
