I’ve been using this chair for almost a month now and I don’t have any complaints at all. It’s very comfortable to work on for hours. Also the packaging is very premium, it almost feels like a luxury brand haha.
Recently I have noticed that the seat foam has started to degrade, and I can feel the hard base/bolts holding it all together through the seat when I sit on it. It’s especially noticeable when comparing the foam where I actually sit to the gap between my legs. I think that’s acceptable after 3 years of near daily prolonged use.
Hopefully a new cushion will help fix that, because the rest of the chair is holding up really well. Previous office chairs have broken at the hinge, or lost bolts in the arms by this point. I just wish it were easier to fix/replace worn parts.
When assembling you put the wheels in first and then the bar to mount the seat but the instructions say fit the base of the chair (that lifts it up) next but when you do this it is very hard to fit the arms, so fit the arms first then fit the base of the seat or you will be going around in circles.
Would definitely recommend 🙂
I have never assembled anything so easy. Extremely sturdy and comfortable.
Easy to assemble, very comfortable chair. I’m using it in my newly created studio at home.
I have had this chair for about a month now, and it is very comfortable. I do not feel like i have been sat at my desk for hours. It is good looking and easy to assemble. Highly recommended.
My teenagers is very happy with this chair. At first he had some pain, but we think this was due to his posture having been bad from the previous one. Nice that the arms flip up to save space too. Lovely desig
If this is just for the home office and you are smaller than 6ft then I’d say this is probably fine.
Having trouble with the height adjuster keeps collapsing need a new gas bottle
Comfy enough to WFH from a few days a week. Wouldn’t be comfy enough for 5 days a week 8 hours a day though. You get what you pay fo
Arrived extremely quickly. Reasonably easy to assemble – came with all the parts and tools required. Needed some strength to put the back on – I m a lone female but managed eventually. Not as high as other chairs. Reasonably comfortable with deep seat. Back not adjustable.
One of the screws could not be screwed in due to the hole being drilled out of line.
I liked the look of these chairs, and after deliberating for some time I went ahead and bought one. It all looks smart enough, but in use I find it is becoming increasingly intolerable to live with. The assembly is correctly bolted and screwed together, but when moving on the seat, it makes loud creaking noises and seems to wobble and clunk about. I tipped the whole thing over and checked all fittings and adjusments, but to no avail. I am 5’9″ tall, not overweight and the chair is not under any excessive strain. Being of average height, I also find the seat level is too low. I bought chairs from Staples previously for around 70 which lasted very well. If it wasn’t such a pain to send it back I would ask for a refund. I’ll look for a better replacement and demote this to a guest chair – supplied with earplugs!
One of the 5 legs comes in 2 parts, probably to make the packaging smaller, but this might become a weak point after continued use. Getting the back and arms to line up was a bit of a pain, but I got there in the end. Instructions list the parts, but they don’t say which bolts go where, so it’s a voyage of discovery to a certain extent.
Took me about 45 mins to assemble and it is surprisingly comfortable. Only time will tell if that split leg design will cope with constant daily usage.
There is also a small mark in the cushion but it is fine with me. It is not a hole; more like a sticky glue that I cannot take out. Overall, I loved it.
It only took about ten minutes to put together and was very comfortable to sit in.
It was comfortable, easy to assemble, love that the arm rests can be moved up, but the only down side is that the chair is not too high. The highest setting is still not too high. Otherwise, a good value for this chair.
First, please look at my pics. When you open the box and find that the 5 star base only has 4.5 legs, don’t send it back as I did. We have two of these already with a 5 star base so I know exactly how to build them, or so I thought. It looks like they have changed their manufacturing so you get a missing half leg with the other half that needs attaching. I ordered another after sending it back and it came with the 4.5 star base but this time I noticed the other half legdohI guess it means they can pack it in a marginally smaller box – about 2cm smaller!
I bought this mostly because of the reviews talking about it being good for short people like me (5’1″), and I’m pleased with it, I can sit in it properly with my feet on the floor and my back against the backrest without awkwardness. It only adjusts up and down but I haven’t needed any more than that.
I really like the fold-up arms which mean it can easily slide under a desk to free up space in the room unlike a lot of the big bulky chairs. The mesh back is good to allow airflow. I found it easy to put together.
I like the springy tilting machanism, but it’s been a bit unreliable – early on it didn’t tilt much but then after a few months something must have pinged into/out of place and suddenly it tilts more which I prefer. The mechanism to stop the tilting entirely is a bit basic – just a metal rod that slides in to lock the chair in place (seems like it must be a lot of pressure on that little rod!) or out to allow the chair to rock. Every once in a while it engages/disengages by itself.
I’ve been working from home full time, and overall I’ve been pleased with this chair.
I think the chair is very comfortable but had difficulty getting the left side arm attached. The screw won’t go in properly.
The chair is really comfortable and the ability to raise the arms is a great asset.
It lost one star for me because when fully raised the seat is a little too low for me and at five eleven in height I’m no giant.
Other than that, it’s a good product.
I really love this chair. I have back issues so need comfort and support. Prior to this I have always bought executive chairs and needed cushions to help me sit reasonably correctly. I don’t need them with this chair. It is wide, so I can move easily and it has excellent back support. One thing, when I altered it so my feet could be flat on the floor I found I had aching butt muscles after an hour. By raising it so I just touch the floor I sit much more comfortably.
Easy to assemble, easy instructions took me about 15 mins, can see what previous reviews mean about the seat. It is very soft and I would have preferred a thicker more firm cushion, however it is a good looking solid chair.
Have been using the chair for nearly 8 weeks now.
Assembly was easy and straight forward- took approx 10mins.
Was initially disappointed with the basic look of chair, thought from pictures it would look more substantial, thought arms had padding, they don’t.
However, I sit in this chair for up to 10hrs daily (obvs with breaks in between!) and find it comfortable and supportive. I do suffer with back problems, but don’t find this chair exacerbates those in any way. The ‘mesh’ back looks like it wouldn’t support, but it does and you can angle the back of the chair to comfort.
Overall, despite my initial reservations, the chair is comfortable and fit for purpose so I would recommend.
Great chair, very comfortable & easy to assemble – easy to follow tutorials found on youtube. One issue is the chair does tend to squeak when leaning back, but this could just be down to my assembling skills?
I use this chair as my main home office chair, but it’s also where I play musical instruments, and so it’s important that the arms go up out of the way when I am playing the guitar, or other stringed instruments or my keyboard. The rocking function is also good.
A good quality and comfy chair, so I’d recommend it to my smaller friends/family.
I am 5″7 and for me the chair is a little too low for my legs and it does not fully support my back. In hindsight I should have sent it back but it’s only a couple of months later that I noticed the niggles.
The only minor gripe (which does not detract from the overall ratings) relates to the assembly. I recommend that (despite what the istructions suggest) is that the arms are loose-fitted to the seat, with the bolts not tightened until the back has been fitted to the arms. There is a little room for adustment between the arms and the seat, which can mean that the arms do not fit snugly against the back. My recommendation would be:
1. Fit the arms to the seat as per the instructions, but do not tighten trhe bolts fully.
2. Fit the back to the arms, inserting each of the bolts to the back, not tightening them until the joints are even.
3. Tighten the bolts between the arms and the back in turn.
4. Tighten the bolts fixing the arms to the base.
AS I say, not a problem with the quality of the chair, just the instructions that need tweaking.
When I sat on this chair for the first time, I felt like this is the worst chair in the world. I was about to send it back but when I played my guitar, damn this chair is comfy. just to play guitar I decided to keep it. I have used this chair since over three months and I could not tell if this chair is comfortable or not, but what I can tell is I find my office chairs uncomfortable comparing to this one.
If you find flat pack (in any form) challenging, this chair is for you. when I turned the seat over I was delighted to find little stickers to indicate front and back, and just in case, left and right. This has been manufactured well and all the parts fit together so where you add the screws they just slide into place, marvellous. I did this in half an hour and was thrilled with it.
Having sat down I’m also delighted with the angle of the back rest and the cushion is nice and thick for an older lady who needs a bit of cushioning to keep comfy for her 7.5 office hours at the work station at home.
I’m pleased I chose it.
Got this in Oct 2019 it’s 8th May 2021 for the price (99) if you’re using the chair for short periods and you’re light it’s probably Okay.
I’m 6ft and 100kgs and have been using it for on average 3 hours a day during this time the gas failed. I reported this and to their credit they replaced this for free but now the cushion where your weight goes is not just flat it’s completely gone like you’re touching the base.
Needless to say I have ordered a new better chair now.
Would I recommend this? Casual gamer, kids room yes. Working from home, or playing for longer periods no.
That said you get what you pay for I have a m57 sihoo on way twice the price though.
It is a comfortable chair, well supported and easy to assemble. Would have given it 4 stars if it did not arrive damaged on one of the arms. More hassle to return, than just put up with the defect.
Update:
Contacted seller, and they responded straight away, and have dispatched a replacement part, so I have increased the rating to 4 stars.
I bought this as my desk chair for working from home. It is a nice chair, light enough, looks nice, not too chunky, perfect for my home office.
The cover of the seat pad was a little twisted, or maybe even the internal pad, but it makes no difference to the seating comfort.
The chair was easy to assemble, but a little fiddly with the back. We found it easier to attach the armrests to the seat first and then sliding the back in and fix it.
Please note: In accordance with HSE recommendations the backrest should adjust sufficiently in height and depth to allow the user to individual gain support? Unfortunately this is not possible as the armrests are permanently fixed to the seat and the back. This means that the armrest cannot be adjusted in to the required individual height, nor can the backrest be adjusted sufficiently in height and depth to allow the user to gain the individual support needed in accordance with their height and weight. The backrest can be set strait or tilt backwards if you lean against it.
Bear the height of armrests also in mind for your desk height.
I personally find the chair very comfortable to sit on several hours a day. I am 170 cm/5’7″ tall and I get sufficient support in my lower back and for my arms. People taller than me may find that the armrests are too low and the backrest not high and/or deep enough for sufficient support.
I’ve had this chair for quite a few months now that I’m working from home full time. At first it was very comfortable but as the months have passed the seat cushion has flattened and now I can feel the board under the cushioning. I am considering getting a cushion or replacing the chair because I can’t sit on it for long periods any more. I am 87kgs.
This chair is just what I needed. I am only quite small (5′) and have sat at my desk top computer for many years on a much larger chair with several cushions (very unergonomic!). I recently started getting back pain so looked for a more suitable smaller chair. This one fits the bill very well and at last I can sit upright with my back supported. I find it very comfortable for long or short periods at the computer. It swivels easily and has an easy rocking movement which I love. I can’t really speak for the assembly, but my son put it together for me without much trouble. I think it would be ok for an average size person, but not sure how suitable it would be for anyone larger than that.
In my opinion this is an excellent chair. It’s comfortable to sit on for long periods and offers excellent support for one’s back. The castors run easily. i have a tiled floor and find it easy to swivel from workstation to adjacent desk desk. The instructions are excellent, and an allen key is supplied with the screws which is all the tools one needs. Assembly took me exactly 50 minutes from opening the box to sitting on the chair. It would have been less but I carelessly put an arm on the wrong way round. Clumsy! Obviously have no idea how long the chair will last but at present I’m very pleased
I did not have any probs assembling the chair. My first impression once i had ? ‘Oops, what have i bought’. It looks so small, especially compared to my previous one, a luxury armchair type. However, after using it, for a couple of weeks now, i have to say it is comfy and supports my lower back. I also find it easy to move around, from room to room, as i do to watch some TV in a bedroom. Far easier than my last chair, banging into doors and risking a hernia when lifting. So, i suppose, it suits my purposes and therefore i’d recommend buying this chair.
Bought this after home working for almost a year sitting on an old kitchen chair with a cushion. I chose this because it’s compact and white so it won’t stand out too much in corner of the living room where I work. Assembly was easy, took about 20 mins. I’ve only been using the chair for a couple of days but so far it feels comfortable, no more numb bum! The height adjust works well and I like the slight rocking mechanism. The chair moves very easily on the carpet but I think i will end up with track marks so I may buy a mat to go underneath it. I’ve read other comments about the cushioning failing after a few months but I’m pretty lightweight so I don’t think it will be an issue.
Bought this as a small chair for my desk. Easy to assemble, looks decent, arm rests are foldable which is a great feature if you want to tuck the chair under a desk, fits a child, adolescent or small adult well. Cushion is comfortable and warm, back rest is supportive and even though its netting, still warm. Has developed a creak after a couple of months use, but most chairs do.
I’m fairly impressed with this chair. My one complaint would be that the seat cushion isn’t quite as padded as I’d like, you do “bottom out” on it fairly easily,
I think I was expecting a little more, purely because of the thousands and thousands of positive reviews, but for the price it’s definitely better than my last chair! But if you want something that’s going to be super comfortable for an entire working day, you might want to go a little more up-market.
Nice chair when finally assembled.
Followed the instructions, perhaps the manufacturer wrote these in isolation from the actual assembly trials as if you attach the arms to the seat first then try and attach a back, there are misalignments and tensions. No perfect visible way to attach arms to the seat, there is room for error there, angle is critical though. Removed the arms several times to get that perfect alignment but no success. Ended up attaching arms to the back first then the whole piece to the seat. Was pleased with the chair when it came together.
A smart looking chair, with decent, but not amazing support. The tilt feature is good, with decent tension available. The seat itself is of average comfort, maybe slightly above average. It creaks quite loudly, and I find when leaning back it tilts very slightly to one side which is odd. Only a tiny amount, but you’ll notice it if you sit every day as I do in this chair. I’d probably recommend as a good chair at this price point. It’s not going to solve all of your chair problems though, you’d probably have to spend more.
Chair looks good & the foldable arms with narrow width means it fits well under my desk, which is the reason I bought it as I have a small study. Didn’t initially feel that comfortable compared to my old chair, but have got used to it very quickly & no longer an issue. The biggest problem was putting it together. One of the screws just would not pull the two pieces of plastic together & despite over an hour of unscrewing/re-screwing various screws to make adjustments, still have a small gap between two of the pieces of plastic. Doesn’t seem to affect the function or strength of the chair & no longer notice the gap, but rather annoying & frustrating at the beginning.
A great office chair, great price, well made, easy to assemble and reasonably comfortable. However…I use this chair everyday to work from home as a Graphic Designer and after just over a week the foam in the seat had pretty moulded to the contours of my derrire leaving me virtually sitting the wooden base… Maybe more suited to occasional use or to limited amounts of time but if your going to be in this seat for long periods you my well need a decent cushion!
Working from home on wooden dining chair had given me back pain. This chair offers good lower back support and the mesh back means it doesn’t get over-hot even through a high-temp summer. It’s sturdy with some back/forth movement to make sure the chair has ‘give’. I found the seat a little hard for my coccyx when sitting for a long time; but a coccyx cushion solved the problem. Only minus is that the seat height is fixed.
Overall it’s a pretty good office chair. In terms of support, it certainly supports my back, although you won’t get quite as much support as you would with, say, a Hermann Miller, but it’s much cheaper than one of those. It could do with having more height adjustment (upwards). I’m not very tall, but would prefer to sit higher relative to my perfectly normal height desk, with the arms level with the desk.
Assembly was ok, slightly fiddly on your own but not difficult.
Aside from these things, it’s comfortable and good value for money.
I feel like this chair will be viewed differently for other people however. I’m 5’10” and this chair is perfectly fine for me however I do feel that if you’re 6’0+ then it might be a different set of circumstances. The build quality is decent for the price and the cushion is firmer than I expected. I’m not saying it’s uncomfortable, but I am hoping that after a couple weeks I’ll get more used to it. If you prefer more of a memory foam feel then I wouldn’t recommend this chair.
The only criticism I have regarding the chair is the instructions. I found them easy to follow however due to the lack of clear dialogue some may have difficulty with the 7 photographed steps provided.
Overall if you’re looking for a chair that stands out or lends itself well to the right environment then I would recommend it. If you’re a bit taller than myself then I would suggest further research.
Rolls and turns smoothly.
Tilts back seamlessly.
No noisy components.
Armrests can be easily wiped.
Seat cushion is firm but comfortable. Hopefully it will last but I guess time will tell.
Lever function easy to use.
No lumbar support but the back rest fits snug in your back.
It’s not a very large chair. I am a smaller frame 8-9 stone and I fit in the chair comfortably.
Great quality for the price!
Pros
– Looks good and sports a pleasing design
– Easy to assemble
– Fairly compact with folding arms (fits under a desk with ease)
– Sensible price
– Is faily robust (I havn’t had any damage incurred or structure issues with months of heavy use…and I’m known to destroy chairs)
– Personally saved me when I had to start working from home because of COVID
Cons
– The seat padding…the is the Achilles heel…. the padding after 3-7 days of use becomes flat as a pancake and will destory the bones in your bum (i’m only 8 stone). If you’re buying this chair then I would definately buy a foam seat pad to accompany the chair. Heed my warning! I did this and it’s been fine ever since.
First thing to say is that I have no connection nor interest in this seller and product and this review is entered purely as an independent purchaser.
With my 5 year old and previously comfortable home but office work chair needing changing I decided to look at all options and as I normally do when buying ‘major’ items, look at reviews. I will often dismiss very critical reviews if they do not seem ‘right’ thinking possibly they were entered by a competitor.
So I looked at reviewed all options and reviews by those that had previously purchased this product which I had narrowed down to being my likely ‘first choice’. Reviews were good, conforming being comfortable, easy to assemble etc., and so I decided to buy and try!!
Brilliant…..arrived via Amazon quickly, assembled easily [ suggest starting with the bottom i.e. castors to legs etc., any nuts needed are there with one tool needed [supplied] to do] . Assembled in 15 minutes and I am not brill with something new [second time yes but not first]. Sat on it, my wife then sat on it both and both immediately thinking so comfortable, great on the back [so important] with its great design. We sat on it and with the merest touch on the foot it turned around full circle again and again which merely confirmed brilliant design and manufacturing. It tilts back easily to keep variations of use. Just so comfortable, easy to use and work with and was great for me size wise.
I have not tried it yet in summer and hot weather as just purchased here in England in winter, however hopefully its back allowing air access will be nice when using when weather is hot.
I use my office chair as this chair will do,, everyday and so obviously I can not say how long the chair will last, however certainly the quality of the items implies that the chair will last a long time and its comfort will certainly be a major plus.
All I can say is that personally I really recommend this product, however the choice is yours, my review is entirely independent
Just as a footnote shortly after purchasing my computers maintenance guy came round, sat on it, he said ‘oh new chair’…yes I said and….. do you know what he said he had just that morning purchased another chair, wished he had not as my purchase was so good and he was looking at returning his purchase and buy this chair!!
Anyway all comments are true and independent, however the choice is yours?
Simple assembly, clear instructions and tools provided. I’ve been working from home a fair bit and the last chair was not supportive and I started having posture issues. This chair changed it instantly. Highly recommend when you get it, release the tilt mechanism and loose the spring underneath the front, the tilt makes this chair really wonderful. It’s been as comfortable to sit in as some really expensive office chairs I’ve had. The thing I only would change is mesh back chairs generally can let your back get cold, with any mesh back chair I use a pillow or blanket on the back of it. This chair however just saved me considering something almost triple the price though, still would recommend it as it’s a solid yet comfortable design. My back was entirely comfortable the whole day, cannot be happier.
I don’t usually buy chairs without trying them first, but with the current COVID situation, trying to find somewhere that has stock and is happy for me to try the chairs is difficult. I decided to take a risk and order this chair through Amazon, and I love it! It was easy to assemble and is suitable to use all day long. The back support is excellent and the seat padding is very comfortable. Highly recommended.
good if basic item; it happens to suit me well, but i didn’t know that before it arrived, it was bought quickly at the start of covid19 when needed an adjustable office type chair because of more home working.
delivery quickly (especially as this was right in first weeks of lockdown when things generally were difficult) and eay to assemble
my only gripe is i bought the white one – there were no other colour choices at the time – and it does show dirt very quickly
This chair represents good value. I have certainly been supplied with better, more comfortable chairs with more functionality and configurability but for the price, this works really well for me in my home office. I expect you might pay much more and not get anything much better, so why bother – this chair does what it needs to. The assembly instructions could do with a little more clarity but it was manageable and quick once I worked it out.
Back support is good for my husband, but I still need additional support, I think it’s because I’m only 5ft. I have this problem with most chairs so I wouldn’t mark it down for that.
Appearance wise, I think it looks good, and glad it’s not an unsightly dark colour so it looks good in the room too.
Easy to assemble but would have been even better if I had ignored the order of assembly .
The shaping of the back support is not right for me but with the addition of a seat pad out is more comfortable.
I cannot get the lift to work But really couldn’t face repacking to send back or taking it apart.
Update 4 months on. With lockdown 2 I have been spending more time sitting on the chair than originally envisaged and sadly the design of the seat back is not right for me..If it reclined a little that would help. A lesson learned…. always sit in a chair before buying it.
Fairly easy to assemble using the manual, doesn’t require too many parts or fussing about. Can be done without expert assembly, I built it with my younger brother quite easily, an hour tops. Feels very comfortable and sturdy. A little bit stiff when rocking, it doesn’t rock as easily and smoothly as it looks in the video but is good enough. My only complaint is that I got the white chair and found a couple of marks on it, rust coloured. I wiped it down but it didn’t go away. The rest of the chair was in good condition. The plastic on the arms also could’ve been smoother or sanded down.
Pros:
– Easy to put together
– Back is supportive
– Arms can be pulled up and the wheels are small enough to store the chair under the desk in full.
-Arms support elbows whilst typing on keyboard.
Cons:
– Some of the stated measurements at time of purchase (September 2020) were wrong. The height range (measuring to the top of the seat cushion) is actually 39.5cm to 50cm, which made it too short for my desk height of 68cm (needing the full 54 cm stated). The full extended height is 98 cm from top to bottom.
– The above caused issues with the arms digging into my elbows (as you angle them to adjust the height, not move up and down). So, if you need to adjust the arms to a higher point, this may effect you – but only if the chair os too short by DSE standards.
– Not highly sturdy with original gas stem (moving side to side I could feel the chair move ever so slightly). This improved with a replacement gas stem though.
Overall:
– If your desk is any higher than 60cm, purchase a different stem and install it when first building the chair (trust me, it’s an effort to remove the original stem one sat on). The one which worked for me is a 9″ Straight Gas Lift, with a 43cm – 57cm range to the top of the seat. This runs about 12.50 at the time of review.
– Will be perfect for shorter desks (I’d say 60cm height or less), where there is not everyday full time use of the chair. I can’t imagine it being suitable for a heavier (by means of muscle or height) person – but this is pretty standard with office chairs.
– Customer Service responded promptly and were very helpful.
I desperately needed an ‘office’ style chair as working from home on an ordinary chair was giving me lots of aches and pains. But, I didn’t want an ugly black chair in my home, and didn’t want to spend hundreds of pounds. This chair seemed to fit the bill and I’ve been so impressed with it. I’ve now had it for two weeks, and used it for 7-8 hours a day, four days a week. It’s comfortable, you can adjust the height (important so for good posture when typing, to avoid RSI), and it moves with your body, from side to side, and, if you want, rocks slightly (unless you lock it, which you can). Before using this chair I hadn’t realised how important it is for office chairs to be designed to ‘wobble’ rather be static.
The cushion is comfortable, although slightly less so after eight hours (but what do you expect for less than 100)? It might be less comfortable for someone heavier (I weigh 55kg / 8.5 stone).
The chair is really well designed, and so was the box it came in, the instruction leaflet and the labels attached to it. The only thing that let it down was that the text for the assembly instructions was written in terrible English, which might be why reviewers say it’s hard to assemble. I found it easy to assemble – but I enjoy that sort of thing.
I was looking to purchase a desk chair, to replace my old desk chair I had over 15 years.And I cannot afford anything really expensive and don’t spend too much time at my desk. I make music as a hobby .
This chair is great for the price,nylon construction so fairly lightweight,the mesh back is great , and will keep my back cool,the seat cushion is decent enough.
Only put this together today,so time will tell on the comfort front.The rocking action is a nice touch,you have a tension adjuster for that too.
Easy to put together, max 20 mins I guess, the chair was well packed ,when I got it,yesterday
Overall very happy
My only slight cons are that I’m 5ft1 and I think the arm rests are a bit too low. And the chair squeaks a bit when I use the tilt.
All around great chair, would recommend.
This chair replaces a wooden dining chair that I used for years, which was not at all suitable for sitting on for hours every day and was digging in to the backs of my legs. I wasn’t sure about buying an office chair at this medium-to-low price, because the one I used to use at work was a super-expensive Herman Miller ergonomic chair and I was worried that this would have set my expectations too high. The Hbada office chair turns out to be very comfortable, easy to adjust, and has just the right amount of “give” to make sitting down comfortable. It doesn’t press into the backs of my legs just above the knee, like the old wooden chair did and as a result, I no longer get my knee locking-out after sitting for a while, which is a huge relief. Wish I had bought one of these sooner.
I regularly use it for 3 hours at a time, using the computer or drawing, and there is no discomfort. I tend to sit quite upright and don’t lean back on the backrest, so can’t really comment on the comfort of that.
It was actually easy to assemble, although I was a bit mystified by the fact that “Bolts B” and “Bolts C” came in the same compartment (or was it a bag?) and I couldn’t see any difference between them, either in the assembly drawings or in the actual bolts. It seems that I did sort them out OK, though, and everything went together snugly. It would be a great idea to put Bolts B and Bolts C into separate bags/compartments. One of the castors took a firm push to push on, which was fine. The others slipped on easily.
Only downside is that although you can rock the entire back rest back and forth, you can’t ‘fix’ the tilt in a specific position you like. Given that I am short, means the I am always leaning forward a bit.
But overall would recommend for the price. Very comfy.
I’ve been working from home during the corona virus pandemic. I’m sat at the computer all day and have been getting neck and back pain – I had been using a dining room chair. So I took the plunge and bought this.
My neck and back pain has gone.
This chair is very comfortable and gives good support.
So why the 4 stars not 5? Well one of the screws for the arm rest would not screw in, so it is screwed on with 2 rather than 3 screws. Having said that, even with the two screws, it is very stable and I don’t think it will affect it at all.
Overall I would recommend this for a well priced, comfortable chair. Not bad looking either in what has become my office……
All in all a nice chair, good price, solidly built, feels secure when sat on and I am 82 kilos and it copes with that admirably. Time will tell on durability, personally for me the seat base could be an inch longer, but thats just being very fussy. If you want a comfortable chair for extended time at your computer this fits the bill.
I would recommend this chair.
Otherwise – the cushion has great padding (perfect if you’ll be stuck at your desk all day), it’s easy to build and was delivered quickly without any problems.
I’m obviously just the wrong size for this chair, so sadly returning it for a refund
I’m rubbish at assembling anything unless it’s Lego, but I managed to put this together in around twenty minutes, so you’ll get a good looking chair and a pretty decent ego boost as a result of it.
The chair itself is very comfortable. The pillow is really padded out and has a memory foam quality to it. The back of the chair is also great as it supports my lower back, which I’ve found office chairs seem to ignore in general. Video editing and general working will now be somewhat alright, my soul is still steadily being destroyed, but atleast I have a comfy chair.
Would buy again.
Ticks Two, Three, etc etc come from its comfort and supportiveness. The armrests are easy to fold up (useful for parking the chair under a desk rather than next to it) and comfortable to lean on when down. The backrest height is perfect, high enough to support the whole back should I want to lean against it but not interfering with the neck in any way. The shaped backrest is also very comfortable.
The chair is easy to roll around on when seated, even on carpet, and very light compared to all the office chairs I’ve had in the past. The only small criticism I can make is that for me the chair height/tilt lever is slightly hard to reach – much easier if it were 2-3 inches further forward – but the lever itself works well.
Overall, this comes highly recommended especially if it pops up on a Lighting Deal. But I’d pay full price to replace it if I had to 🙂
I’m 183cm (6ft) and 90kg, (not especially large) but my wife laughs when she sees me in this chair saying I’m wedged into it
This chair looks great but is a little narrow and the back is a little low for me. A bit of padding on the arms would be a nice touch as well. The feature of the arms raising up is a little pointless as it actually fits under my ikea desk anyway, and looks more…normal in doing it. Plus you could always lower the chair a little if you need to fit it under (the arms are thin and low profile so I can’t see it being a problem)
I’ll be sending this to my business office hotdesk and will get something bigger with head support. Probably another hbada as their stuff looks pretty slick and has a reasonable price.
The arm rest folds up which helps it fit under any table easily having a small room this is very useful as it uses less space in the room. The mesh backrest is very stretchy which helps with back comfort and is breathable which helps reduce sweat when sitting for long periods. The lean feature helps relaxing on the chair during brakes.
I am very pleased with this purchase.
