You’ve all seen pictorial instructions before, apparently drawn by a three year old, where the dimensions and shapes of the items don’t remotely correspond to what you have received, and to make matters worse you’ve got a fourth generation photocopy, and fewer nuts and bolts than the instructions describe.
I’ve never given a good review for instructions ..until now. I’d put off the assembly for a few days such was my dread of what was to follow, and being ‘fined’ by my wife for multiple expletives. But this was totally different! A clear set of instructions combining pictures with occasional helpful pointers in English, in a good quality booklet. The whole thing took 15 minutes with a further 5 for tweaking the position of the arm rests, heights and so on. The only point where I got stuck was with the word ‘shim’, though it was pretty obvious by process of elimination that this word meant ‘washer’. I’d never heard that term before!
Anyway, it would be picky to dwell on that point. 5 stars for assembly! Just amazing, totally unexpected.
I’m now adding to the original review above to give my verdict on the chair after a couple of weeks’ use. I find the chair very comfortable overall but it has minor faults. I was a bit worried about the lumbar support, a few people have complained about that, but I see no issue there at all. Height adjustment of chair and arm rests are independent, which is perfect. The range of movement of the back is very limited and to my mind the angle is not quite steep enough at the highest setting. In fact, I am struggling to discern any difference regardless of how much I turn the knob on the back. A slightly more upright position is needed, but it’s okay.
The one real dislike I have concerns the arm rests. You really want to have rotation about the axis of the rest. Your arm sits in a groove in the armrest, with a raised lip to the left and right. This is perfect if you want to tap endlessly the letter Q and the plus sign on the numeric section of the keyboard, but realistically the vast majority of your key presses are going to be more central, with your arms at an angle of 20-45 degrees relative to the arm rest. This means your forearm is pressing on the raised lip on the inner edge of the rest. If the lip were just on the outside edge it would be fine. Or if you could rotate the arm rests to be pointing slightly inwards.
However, the chair overall is very good, and would be perfect with a bit more thought about the design of the arm rests and the most likely positions of the users’ arms when typing.
Item received had scratch marks at the metal base. I believe this was sent out like this as opposed to damaged in transit as it had a layer of protective cover on. Overall, the quality of the chair was ok, easy to assembly but not as sturdy and comfy as I would like for the price. Customer service dealt with the issue, happy with the resolutio
Adding my review as so many others helped me decide to buy this chair! It’s a good chair for the price point. I won’t go into all the benefits as I am sure with a bigger budget you can improve on back support etc. But I use it everyday and I don’t hate it at all, it’s comfortable and the slight recline is my favourite position in this chair. For < 200 this I think, is as good as it gets. My previous chair was a 900 Haworth which I had to return to the company when I left the job so I've used expensive chairs before.
It’s massively better than Songmic Office Chair Ergonomic OBN52BKUK, which I bought for the spare room (although one might expect all these things are built in the same warehouse and designed by the same people). Like that, the Sihoo is limited and a tad flimsy around the arms, but overall, unlike the Songmic, it’s overall a more comfortable sitting upright experience. The rollerblade-style wheels, which I’d never seen before on a chair, are of particular note: combined with the chair being fairly light, it’s very easy to move around, it’s like gliding, even on carpet. Ultimately, it is a cheap office chair, you go into it not expecting the best build quality, but to its credit it has decent lumbar support (far better than the Ikea Markus it replaced, and the Songmics), and just as crucially, a semblence of a headrest with a decent range of movement, which the Songmics lacks entirely. Frankly, I’ve used far, far worse chairs in professional offices back in the Before Times.
Build is pretty easy, and the package includes a spare of everything, and an actually useful allen key with a big grip. I’m hanging on to that for future reference.
My only real negative, even at this price point, is that while the back recline options are limited to two additional fixed positions as may usually be the case in these types of chair, neither of them feel right: even the 2nd position is a too far back for my taste, especially given the seat reclines with it, so it lifts your feet off the floor and you have to reduce the height, which is awkward as both are controlled by a single, dual-function lever.
Still, for 136, and knowing the mesh will inevitably be torn to shreds by the cat in a few years, as happened to the Markus—hence why I can’t risk even a second-hand Aeron—I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Have low expectations, it will beat them easily.

It was easy to assemble and feels nice and comfortable. In fact, it was so good that my wife bought a second one.
I’m removing a star, just because the second chair had the wrong sized shims (washers) for attaching the back to the chair base. Luckily I could find some replacements in a local hardware store (I was able to use a washer left over from the previous chair to find a match) but it was an extra load of faff I didn’t need!
But all in all, I’m more than happy. It’s comfortably firm, and adjusts well.
Be aware that the back angle adjustment isn’t continuous, but has a small number of locked positions. (Or it can be free-moving with a spring return of adjustable tension.)

The chair is well made and very easy to assemble.
The materials used appear to be of good quality, the seat is firm but supportive, the mesh backrest is very comfortable. The base is reasuringly solid and the castors allow easy movement of what is a fairly heavy chair, however the armrests are a little bit wobbly at the point of adjustment (not where they are fixed to the seat). In use the movement is barely noticeable, I’m just being very picky. It’s very comfortable, the adjustable head rest and lumbar support is a welome addition. How long will it last??? the $64K question…only time will tell.
Addition 29 Oct 21.
My chair developed a minor fault in the armrest.
I contacted Customer Services and I have to say the level of assistance I received was truly outstanding, a replacement part was dispatched very soon after I sent a couple of photographs of the fault.
The defective armrest has been fitted and the chair is now back to origional condition and by the way it’s still as comfortable as the day I assembled it.
Excellent chair, 1st class Customer Service, highly recommended
educes back/ posture problems and pain, not amazing quality but nice enough and certainly does the job,
it very much helps maintain a good posture and supports back and neck/ head.
nice adjustable height for actual chair itself, armrests and for head support which can also tilt.
Comfy memory foam base which is somewhat moulded to fit the shape of your legs however the base is a bit deep so might not be the best for very short legs.
provides good value for money as it is one of the most important things for your overall health to maintain a good posture.
I have had the chair for a week and it is big upgrade from the previous chair which squeaked and rocked. This is very well built and looks great. There is lots of adjustment on the lumbar and neck support so the chair can be easily set up although the seat is on the firm side. The packaging was first class with good instructions and a very good Allen key which made the build very easy. I am not a fan of arms on a chair so it is a shame that the same model can’t be purchased slightly cheaper without them. Overall, I am very pleased and the product lives up to the billing of the best value chair under 200.
I saw this chair with its lumbar support, neck support and arm rests that could be moved up or down and saw that it was available in a fun colour instead of just black, and knew that I had to have it.
When it came, I went about setting it up. Now there are many components to this but the instruction leaflet provided gives you all the information you need to get the job done.
I did it by myself and it took about half an hour, mostly because of the unpacking of all the pieces but once set up, I was amazed at just how sturdy it is.
Someone commented that the arm rests aren’t sturdy enough but I found them to be just that. I don’t really know why that would be an issue… There’s never any need to put your entire weight down on the armrests but I’m sure that if you did they would perform just fine.
My husband was over the moon and says he no longer has that niggling lower back pain when he works at his desk. He is working at his desk more now that he has a great seat.
It’s definitely a great buy.

I am 6’4 and find the chair to be comfortable enough to sit in all day, it adjusts to a really good height and I like the factvthe arm rests can adjust to different heights too. It has a reclining back rest that can be adjust to 3 different levels which I find to be very convenient and also includes lumbar support which actually does what it’s suppose to.
I’ve had 1 chair before and I can definitely say this is of a better quality and standard to that I would totally recommend
Before I bought this I noticed there was a reviewer concerned that his order was fulfilled by MARTUNIS, and a reply suggested that only orders fulfilled by SIHOO would be eligable for the full guarantee.
Anyway, I took a gamble and purchased this as it was reviewed on T3.COM.
What’s been delivered has been fulfilled by MARTUNIS and looks like the chair advertised, but the box, instructions and chair seem totally unbranded. No reference to SIHOO anywhere.
Does it make a difference to the chair itself? Unsure, but why buyers have to go through these concerns when buying online is beyond me.
Pros:
Good lower back support, comfy arm rests with light padding, easily adjustable seat height and if you have ADHD (I do) it’s got a great ‘rocking feature’ 🙂 No annoying squeaks or rattles. Sturdy chair even with the foot rest kicked out.
Cons:
Upper part of back rest doesn’t lock quite upright enough, so you’re always slightly reclining.
I bought this based on reviews, as consistently appeared in top 10 reviews of chairs. Had a genric computer/gamer style chair which was not that good to sit in and most reviews say go for an office type chair instead on these.
Was really easy to put together. They provide all tools to fit including cloth gloves, as the washers have a little oil on to them to keep from rusting. All screws have an extra one incase you lose one. Took me 20 mins to put together. The only gripe I have is the adjustable armrests that move up and down and headrest wobble a bit, not quite a plush fit, but these don’t affect you whilst in use. Was just looking for something negative to say as no product is perfect. Had the chair for 2 weeks now and all good so far.

On first seating it feels very comfortable and the lock and unlock for the tilt is very intuitive. The adjustable headrest and lumbar support are also excellent.
Will further update after using for a few days but a great start.

I have an issue with sciatica and needed a chair that had a good back support
This chair is very comfortable the arm rest height, head/neck rest, back and seat height are all adjustable. There is also a back support that you can adjust.
Quite heavy to assemble but I managed it single-handed. The instructions are just pictures and I struggled to understand how to attach the back but managed eventually!
Fantastic chair, considering the huge price difference it doesn’t feel much different in use to my Herman Miller in work – which is a huge compliment to something a small fraction of the cost.
Building it was quick and very straightforward, pleased to see they supplied extra bolts although none were needed. It’s solid, comfy and very adjustable, looks great and the upgraded rollerblade wheels are absoluutely fantastic – undoubtedly the highlight.
I used to work in a carpeted room but have since switched my home working space to a wood floor room, the wheels are silent and feel much smoother on the wood floor than my previous chair did on carpet. I’ve also avoided having to buy (oddly expensive) floor protectors, which from experience are a pain, and I need one set of wheels not two protectors for my desks. Note that the wheel upgrade will make the chair a few centimetres taller, but this isn’t a problem.
Excellent stuff, Sihoo!
So, I have to say that this Office Chair as it is marketed, its actually I would say both for gaming and office chair customers. I have a basic gaming chair for about 7 years and there was no back support and neither were there any head rest.
I know, I know that chairs have improved massively epsecially gaming. However, I would so reccomend to anyone who’s looking for back support adjustability and for any other adjustability to get this chair. It is pricey I won’t lie, but I wont be swapping for another chair for possibly another 7/8 years.
Really recommend to anyone who is a gamer or streams or works at a desk for more than 6/7 hours a day!
With a mixture of reviews I decided to take the plunge. Many who gave negative comments about the sizing I thing must be over 5’8″ as it fits me perfectly. I can see how taller people could struggle to get the headrest to fit comfortably. Although Sihoo (I think that’s the name) have other chairs available and the next model up has an adjustable backrest so perhaps that would fit the taller people better.
It only arrived today so haven’t spent too much time in it, maybe 4 or 5 hours in total. So far it’s very comfortable and supportive. I can feel the pressure relief from my lower back as the chair encourages good posture. I came to this from a very comfortable 10 year old chair that I often used to fall asleep in (Not whilst working, just in case my boss see’s this) pre COVID. The last year of working from home finished it off and I’ve been researching seats for a long time as I know there’s a lot out there that aren’t as good as the blurb suggests. Given that shops are closed and you can’t visit to try I was super cautious. But I have to say I’m more than happy with my choice. Only time will tell if it remains as good as initial tests have been. Should it become uncomfortable I will amend this review and the star rating but for now, if you’re looking for a chair and are 5’8″ or shorter buy this with confidence.
It’s well comfy.
P.s. one review said that the gloves provided must be for a midget – I wondered what they were on about. In the assembly kit there is a pair of white cotton gloves provided, I can only guess it’s either to keep your hands clean while assembling or to keep the fabric clean? What you have to bare in mind is that the company who make this are Chinese I think, and how many Chinese do you see with big monkey hands? The gloves are sized for their home market, that being said I did manage to squeeze my large hands into them during assembly.
Any competent diy’er should be able to build this no worries. It’s actually easier to follow these instructions than some IKEA ones all in I’d say it took around 30 mins to assemble.
The chair arrived sooner than i expected which was a bonus. Easy to assambled by one person within 20 min. The chair looks and feels sturdy and the upgraded wheels was all worth it as makes the chair very silent and easy when moving around. I opted not to have the arms installed due to personal choise but the chair still looks great. Lumbar support is good so far and the high back with with the head rest complete this chair. The seat is very comfy and wide which makes it even more comfy. I think the price reflect fairly the quality of this chair. We have an markus ikea chair at home as well and after testing boths this is the winner. Very pleased with this chair and the seller so far.

I’ve suffered With Back pain and Sciatica since a Fall in 1999 was forced to leave a Job as Security Officer been Online gamer since 1990’s and had many chairs including ‘Gaming Chairs’ Dining room chairs Wooden chairs plastic chairs.
Never had a chair quite like this, most gaming chairs have the Racing car style to them which isn’t great if you have broad shoulders and cushions that slide about allowing the user to slouch.
It’s easy to assemble, I had this chair assembled within minuets All the tools needed come with it fully adjustable headrest the arm rests despite appearances are a very firm cushioned material not hard plastic I opted for Rollerblade wheels as i use it upstairs on hard floor so they make less noise, they do travel a lot so I’ve purchased a small flat rug just big enough for the wheelbase.
Within the first week of owning this chair I fell asleep in it, I was not tired but it was so comfortable in the reclined position.
It’s nearly a month since i got this and used it every day for perhaps 12 hours a day
Highly Recommended. It really has made a difference in my pain management (I personally would like some removable covers for it though.)

The chair arrived very quickly and was easy to assemble – I did it myself in about 20 minutes. It feels solid and durable.
I have the rollerblade wheels and these dig into the carpet which makes it hard to move the chair whilst sitting in it. The tilt is either on or off, it isn’t possible to set a smaller rang of tilt. The full extent of tilt is quite far back which might be nice for a nap but too far for a mid-meeting ponder so i keep the tilt off which does still allow for a gentle recline.
Comfort wise it is pretty good. The seat is spacious and quite firm. It is comfortable for a while but numb bum does encourage you to get up every now and again, which is probably a good thing. The adjustable/removable lumbar support and head rest are nice features.
I am very happy with the chair and it holds my 6ft 4″ frame very well.
4 Stars because it isn’t perfect but I consider it a good value purchase
Update:
I’ve upgraded to 5 stars. After using this chair for a year I still love it and find other office chairs uncomfortable in comparison. One of the arm rests developed a small tear and the seller replaced it very quickly. So I can confirm excellent after sales support too.

Anyway, features i miss are a rocker that i had on my previous chair. The arms are comfortable and solid, however not very long and are a bit loose so they make a constant noise if you move your arms. I am by no means a skinny 5ft woman who i think this chair would be better for. I could do with another 2-3 inches on the length of the seat, it feelt like i am perched sometimes and not fully sat in it. After around 6hrs sitting on it, its time to have a good half an hour break and walk off that numbness.
On that positive side, the chair looks to be very well built. As long as the material lasts a good while then the chair won’t need replaced for a few years. Another small niggle is the headrest, it can move down all of a sudden, there isn’t anything to tighten it with, only notches.
Since owning the chair i have developed a stiff neck and dull pain in my shoulders, however this could also be a result of lockdown and spending a lot more time in the chair for work.
Anyway, features i miss are a rocker that i had on my previous chair. The arms are comfortable and solid, however not very long and are a bit loose so they make a constant noise if you move your arms.

Overview:
A bit of background info, I’m a 5 ft 3 female and my whole working life, I have really struggled to find a suitable office chair due to being quite a short person. I have suffered with significant shoulder and back pain whilst sitting at any desks. Working in tech, I spend the majority of the day sat at a desk, furiously typing away.
The beauty of this particular chair is that it is fully adjustable to account for my lack of height. I considered gaming chairs before making this purchase, but decided against it, as I preferred the idea of a mesh back and adjustable lumbar support. The worst feeling in the world during summer is being unbearably hot and sweaty at your desk so I thought this would be a good solution to future proof myself for the upcoming summer months too. Great decision. You don’t stick to this mesh whatsoever, as the air circulation is great. I will also
Adjustable elements:
The lumbar support can move upwards and downwards, along with the point of contact with your back, which can also move inwards and outwards. The neck/head rest is height adjustable. The back moves back and forward when you’re sat in it, and there is an adjustable spring underneath to adjust the amount of tension to allow the back to stiffen up with your weight, or lean back without much resistance. The arm rests are also adjustable upwards and downwards. The foot rest is adjustable to length of leg size, and you can also set in a 45 degree angle mode. The seat is also height adjustable as you would expect with an office chair.
Assembly:
Easy to assemble and took less than 10 minutes. I actually couldn’t find the instructions (eventually found lost at the bottom of the box) and I was able to figure it out without them.
Build quality:
Very durable and has got some weight to it. It feels like a top quality chair straight out of the box. Base is very heavy metal, but it makes you feel like you’re sat on something that isn’t going to wobble around or warp.
Comfort:
I opted for the foot rest option and can honestly say it is a worthwhile upgrade. When this chair is in full incline mode with the foot rest up, in my opinion, it’s almost like sitting in a lounge chair. I will update this part of the review when I have utilised it as an office chair.
I would have no qualms in recommending this chair to anyone who has similar proportions and struggles to me, especially those who have found it difficult in the past to find a comfortable office chair.
After lots of research and trying to figure out how much you actually need to spend to get a decent chair I found this one and after reading the reviews decided it was worth the investment. I have not been dissapointed. The head rest is excellent for my neck, the chair itself is comfortable and adjusts in all the right ways. I don’t really bother with the lumbar support but that also has a decent range of motion.
The only small gripe is that the wheels rattle on my hard floors when I’m not sat on the chair. However, no such problems once I’m sat in it. If that’d be an issue for you then I recommend spending the small aount extra and going for the upgraded wheels.
Item was scheduled to come in 10 days time, arrived in just a few days. The chair was well packaged, the instructions were clear and all tools (hex/Allen key) provided. Also get spare just in case. The little work gloves was also a nice touch. It took about 10mins to put together. It is heavy and robust in construction. Everything adjustable. Word of warning- It is on the firm side, which might not appeal to all, but works for me (with 2 slipped discs, the adjustable lumbar support is good). The base also looked a little shiny from the picture, however, it is more of a brushed steel (more premium look/feel). It is early days, however, my experience thus far has been highly complementary and I’m hoping I will get some good and comfortable use of the years.
After 9 months of lockdown I finally decided to treat myself to a proper chair. While my previous 10 IKEA desk chair is an unfair comparison, this upgrade was better than I’d expected. The lumbar support has been great for my back and the neck support has actively encouraged me to sit upright. I’ve spent 12 hours+ at a stretch in this chair (lockdown hours, but no complaints) and I’ve walked away still feeling like my back was in one piece and had been well looked after. In short, I highly recommend this – it’s not the cheapest purchase but it’s fully worth it.

Very easy to put together with straightforward instructions, a lovely tool and spare bolts and washers so everything covered. I even used the mesh gloves which was a good job as you do pick up some factory grime when building it.
The chair feels very sturdy and is very comfortable to sit in for an office day. The only thing is the casters are not as easy to roll across the carpet in my home office as my previous task chair.
That said, I still highly recommend it.
The chair arrived a lot earlier than expected and was very easy to assemble alone. I’ve been looking for a chair with this kind of support for a while due to trigger points in my upper back that fire up when I used to sit on the previous chair and made working/studying extremely painful. I just went from always thinking about my back pain to no pain whatsoever!
With this chair, I can sit up straight, or a bit tilted back if I want with my head rested on the head support while working on my desk. The head support is very adjustable, it can be moved forward/back, up and down.
Finally, another great feature of this chair is the lumbar support which can be height adjusted and moved forward or backwards. The chair is very easy to use, supportive and feels like it was last a long time.
Like so many others, my office is now in my home. I bought this chair on the recommendation of a colleague and it’s good, but slightly flawed.
The good – really easy to assemble. Very, and I mean very comfortable. I have napped in it in the reclined position.
The not so good – I’m 6’4″. I could do with the headrest being slightly higher. Not a show stopper, but would be one improvement I would make. The lever that controls the recline function does not always work. This component seems a little cheap when compared to the rest of the chair.
Overall, I’m satisfied but it could be improved with a couple of minor changes.
Would I buy again? I’m not sure. I think so. Overall, it’s really comfortable and I’m spending every working day sat in it.

This is by far the best chair i have had. Its sturdy, comfortable, adaptable and reliable.
The wheels on the chair are the best i have yet to see, and the removability it flawless. (Unlike most Chairs that may get stuck and require more force to move)
How ever, the chair is quite heavy to lift, as half of it is made out of steel. This may be a problem for some people with a small build, but for me i dont mind it and i perfer the heavy steel for extra strength.
The adaptability of this chair is another one of its best features. As you can keep adjusting it until you have found your comfort zone.
I would recommend this to others if this is what you are looking for in a chair.
The chair came with a “prize card” where you scratch off and “win” a prize ($10 in my case). This is probably the same amount for everyone. However it seems to be a scam, you email in and they just ignore you.

As a result of the Pandemic, I was forced into a lot of home working, but my setup was not ideal (it was a bar stool) and it started to cause me back and shoulder issues. I started looking around for something that was reasonably priced, had good levels of adjustability, was durable and had favourable reviews amongst users. This seemed like a good fit, and after 5 months of usage, I can confirm that I no longer experience the same aches, and I’m very happy with my purchase. Compared with other office chairs I have previously used, this offers a great level of adjustment, plus the components look and feel sturdy enough to last. Only downside was that the box in came in was quite heavy! If you need to invest in a comfortable chair for home working, I fully recommend this one.
The chair is solid, but not bulky and has improved my posture and as a consequence my back and neck pain are nearly gone, after a few weeks.
It was easy to assemble, unless you want to be super fast. The tool/key that comes with it was sufficient to fit all the screws. You only have to make attention to match the right and left harm rest with the correct side of the chair, I got it wrong the first time.
The head and back rests are easily adjustable and I a glad, as I am tall and wanted these adjustable to make sure they fit my back. The harm rests are not adjustable, but luckily are OK for me. I cannot comment on the pump to regulate the height, because once found the right position, I don’t need to use it that often, so only time can tell. So far I am super happy.
Assembly was maybe 30 minutes, with a nice pair of white gloves supplied to keep hands clean. Very impressed that they added a spare screw for each type of fitting, and the ‘allen’ key tool supplied was really easy to use (not like the ones you get from a certain Swedish furniture company).
The chair itself looks really smart, better than the pictures on the listing. The seat is wide and firm, but not uncomfortable. It feels solid, like it will do the job it is designed to do. I have adjusted the height of the arms to suit me perfectly, the lumber support and headrest are also adjustable.
I use this chair for 8+ hours a day, and then the cat uses it for a few hours each evening (a true sign of quality if the fussy cat loves it) and I just have to hoover up the cat hair each morning before work.
For the price I have to say I am delighted with the product. It took no more than a week from purchase to delivery, exceeding my expectations.
Thoroughly recommended.

Instructions are simple enough and it can be assembled by one person but two people would make it easier especially when fitting the back and lowering onto the strut
First impression wasnt good until when I realised you have to tension the back to stop you falling over backwards! But I still wasnt convinced and could see me trying to package a fully assembled chair for return.
It took a while to work out how to lock the backrest in place (next day) and this is my bug bear …. no instructions (in English). The Assembly instructions are adequate but there is no indication how to use the lever to adjust the seat heat and lock the back rest (Needed!).
Update1:
After 24 hours I think I will be keeping the chair and will update my review after I’ve used the chair for a few weeks. Off to find instructions/YouTube video on how to use a chair!!!!
Update2:
Received instruction video from reseller. Very useful and needed
As for the warranty – as for SIHOO saying they wont provide support if you dont buy from them – thats fine. Buy from anyone else for less – you are still protected by the retailler /Amazon and for 12 months sthe same as SIHOO (theya rent giving you any more than your consumer rights in the UK) . Saved me 15

Hi all
I wouldn’t recommend this chair if you are taller than183cm (6 foot). I am this height and its border line with the neck support provided.
I also have to mention that the lumber support feature works but the cushioning is very poor and the support tends to be unccomfortable over time, which really defeats the purpose of having a lumber support feature. I have fixed this by using a small thin pillow. i just feel with a little more R&D in this area and potentially changing the cushioning to something like a thicker memory foam, there chair would’ve been perfect.
Something for the manufacturer to ponder….
I have been to many shops to try out office chairs, afraid that buying a chair like that online is a bad decision making process. However, some chais were too big, some were almost there, but were uncomfortable in neck area or elsewhere, so I gave up and decided to order whatever online. Then I found this chair – highly customisable one but decently priced so I decided to give it a go. I liked a lot the fact that it has a support for the neck, and that you can modify the support for the back as well, but also that it comes in orange colour! (pretty tired of plain old black office chairs) I was worried that the chair might be too big for me (160cm < 50kg) but actually because of the customisation, it worked out pretty well and it was much better then any chair I tried in the shops. Honestly, don't know how long it will last, but it looks sturdy to me, so I definitely recommend it 🙂
I contacted the seller and they sent me a replacement part
~~~~~~~
Overall this is a comfortable chair, however, the reason i have given it such a low rating is because the lumbar support is useless. The adjustable lumbar support does not stay in place, and instead just slowly slides down to the lowest position while your sitting in it
I’m unsure if i have a faulty chair or if this is a design fault of the chair, but either way, i expect better from a 200 chair.
I’ve had this three days and am pleased so far. It is large, solid, comfy and was easy to assemble. My only complaint is that the castors seems a bit cheap and flimsy in comparison to the rest of the chair. Reading other reviews it seems two sets of castors were provided in the past but I neither expected or received two sets. However the set I do have don’t run smoothly on my carpet and so I’m going to purchase a better set of castors – a small and easy to perform upgrade.
Otherwise this chair is just what I wanted and I’m pleased with my purchase. Even in three days it has helped with the back pain I was starting to suffer from working from home without a proper chair. This does the job for me – 185cm tall, 90kg.
I have owned this for 10 days and have to say, for the money I struggle to imagine it’s possible to do much better. The basic seat design, controls, construction quality and appearance are all feel high end. I got the model with the footrest upgrade – it’s a well implemented addition and feels robust, so I can kick back and properly chill when I’m not working.
It’s easy to put together and as others have noted, the instructions are good. A single allen key tool (provided) is all that’s needed to assemble and spare bolds are included, which is a really nice touch. Took me about 15 mins to have it out the box and fully put together.
Time will tell but it all feels solid to me; I can see this lasting just fine.
Firstly, this is a very supportive & easy to assemble chair (but ideally, you need two people). It looks great but mine arrived with some issues. Given the enormous problems I had to actually receive it, I decided that returning it would just be further hassle so I’ll live with the issues. Minor they might be, but I believe I paid for a reasonable standard. (Post review note: complaint dealt with satisfactorily by Vendor who offered a goodwill gesture). Some faux chrome finishes are scratched & show some tarnish but the chrome base arrived with a minor dent as the box had clearly had a hard transit & was holed in two places & crushed in another. Not good. Also, delivery was a nightmare with two wasted days when the shipper, DPD, said they’d deliver but didn’t & as I found out DPD’s customer service is non existent – you can’t talk to anyone & they don’t answer their online forms either. The Vendor tried to help too. Not withstanding the above, cautiously recommended as it is very comfortable & generally good quality. Post review note. Upgraded to 4 stars – the writer is of a burly prop forward build & this chair is very, very comfortable.

I am very surprised with this chair ! Having taken weeks if not months looking for a good but reasonably priced home office chair – this is more than I hoped for.
I have really suffered from a sore neck and back during lockdown and it’s difficult to find a chair with an adjustable headrest at a reasonable price so this seemed to tick all the right boxes when I took the plunge and ordered it last week.
It’s arrived in only a few days later and took me and my daughter about 20 minutes to put together ( looks a bit scary in pieces in the box but it is really straight forward so do not be afraid)
I also love the orange colour – it’s part of my home and I didn’t want a boring black chair so at least this stands out and looks stylish too.
Overall it’s very well made and a solid construction – absolutely delighted !!!
Bought this chair as the previous one caused back pain once I started working from home and was spending 8 hours a day in it.
I was a little wary of the reviews on Amazon, but saw that it was recommended in a gaming magazine, which made me more confident about the comfort levels I could expect. In that review, their number two choice cost over 1k. Have been using it for a few weeks now, and very happy about it, the quality and ease of putting together, and the fact that it has supported my back really well.
Opted for the orange chair to get away from boring black. Delivery was supposed to be a couple of weeks, however it came within a few days, which was very welcome.
Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend on the basis of the last few weeks.

This is a well constructed chair – sturdy and quiet. The build instructions are clear and the inclusion of gloves and an allen key with a handle is very thoughtful.
It’s more adjustable than the majority of chairs in this price range and the mesh back is great for keeping cool.
I spend all day at my desk and unfortunately, despite the amount of adjustment, I was unable to find a configuration that was comfortable for me.
However SIHOO have been brilliant at dealing with my issues, very responsive and keen to help.
A comfortable and reassuringly solid chair with a premium feel. The chair is relatively compact in terms of width, but still has generous seat space and the groves in the adjustable armrests and a simple but useful touch. As a tall person (6″2) the inclusion of headrests often puts me off, as on many chairs they only reach as far as my shoulders and can actually become a hindrance. This chair has a tall back and the headrest on this unit can be heightened further and the angle can be adjusted, so I can rest my head comfortably on it. The seat cushion is dense and supportive.
It was delivered very promptly and is relatively easy to put together. The only minor gripe I have is that the recline lever is a little fiddly (you have to rock forward slightly to unlock it before reclining). But as I rarely recline, this is not a big issue.
Looking for recommendations is a tricky business, trusted sources are few and far between online. Eventually I settled on a shortlist and the SIHOO was on it. Buying a chair without an opportunity to sit in it is a voyage into the unknown. I would normally have visited bricks and mortar stores to test the options but a pandemic lockdown means that was not possible.
I have had this for a couple of weeks now and after spending 9-4.30 sitting on it each weekday I can tell you it is all I hoped for at this price point. You can easily spend a grand on an office chair but that is beyond the reach of many like me. For less than 200 this chair is teriffic.
Once assembled (took me about 35 minutes, less if you have an electric drill or screwdriver with the appropriate Allen key bits) it feels sturdy. You can adjust height, arms (independently if you desire) back and lumbar support. There is also a headrest which I don’t use much during the working day but is nice when you tilt back and relax with book or something once your work is done.
I can recommend this for folk on a budget, it feels more premium than the price point. I would also point out that when I ordered delivery was timed at three weeks. Someone must have been working overtime as it arrived within three days!

Once assembled (took me about 35 minutes, less if you have an electric drill or screwdriver with the appropriate Allen key bits) it feels sturdy. You can adjust height, arms (independently if you desire) back and lumbar support. There is also a headrest which I don’t use much during the working day but is nice when you tilt back and relax with book or something once your work is done.
I can recommend this for folk on a budget, it feels more premium than the price point. I would also point out that when I ordered delivery was timed at three weeks. Someone must have been working overtime as it arrived within three days!
Great quality chair and improving back ache after only a few days of use. Very easy to put together, comes in 6 seperate pieces 13 bolts and your done! Comes with Chuck/Allen key with a sturdy plastic grip so very easy to tighten up properly.
Chair has a premium look and feel to it, all the parts are well made and overall it’s a heavy chair.
Loads of adjustments can be made to get the perfect sitting posture. Headrest positioning is something I have never really been bothered about but does make a difference. You can easily and smoothly adjust everything.
Took 10 mins to put together. Ideal in home or work office environment and to be fair better than any chair I’ve ever been supplied with!

It arrived way quicker than I’d expected (especially as we’re still in lockdown right now for future readers). I assembled it on my own and it was easy enough, though I can see how having a second person at a couple of stages might make it a bit easier. The only thing I’d mention is look for the arrows on a couple of components which indicate which direction is the “front” if you’re a little unsure! This isn’t mentioned in the instructions, but I found them quickly enough when I wanted to be sure I was assembling the right way around. I’ve got back problems which is why I got a seat like this, and it’s been encouraging better sitting habits so far, I’m still tweaking a bit since I’ve never had a seat with this level of adjustment before, and I’m working out what works best for me, but I’m really pleased with this so far. I’ll update this review if anything changes or I discover any tips!
As for the chair itself, out of all the chairs I’ve had under 300, it has the largest amount of adjustable features, required for a good ergonomic experience and long sitting, as well as providing adequate comfort.
Headrest has rotation tilt around the base in a forward and backward motion as well as the ability to elevate the headrest.
Arm rests are maneuverable up or down and have a crevace which provides comfort for the forearms. They cannot however be adjusted inwards or outwards away from the body, as some more expensive chairs facilitate.
Lumbar support can be positioned up or down the back of the chair as well as the depth of the support being adjustable.
Seat depth I do not think can be adjusted however.
Due to the material the seat seems to be made of, it would appear as though it would survive a fair amount of long use before needing any replacing or reupholstering.
The only complaint is the headrest which is flimsy in its construction and execution. BUT not uncomfortable in everyday use. Just kind of detracts from the overall professionalism of the chairs construction. It is well made with quality materials, exc the headrest, and I would highly recommend SIHOO Ergonomic Office Chair. Importantly the cushion feels like new even after all the work it has done – although a home purchase it gets used most days and looks as good as the day I bought i
This is quite a sturdily built chair, with a reassuring solidity. The chair comes together very easily, compared with others I’ve had, although I’d recommend taking the parts up one by one, if your home office is upstairs: the whole package together is big and very heavy.
Each of the parts has a reassuring heft and look good quality. This is no Aeron, but it looks solid and well made. Strangely this comes with two sets of castors (one for carpet?) and extra fixings, but that is always welcome, as are the tools. The instructions are also very straightforward, if a little small (if, like me, you need reading glasses).
Once built, this chair provides firm support, both from the seat and the mesh back, which I like (being a little heavier than the average man). The adjustable armrests are comfy, although they only really adjust up or down (alas, not swing-out to make this an armless chair). With recline, tilt, swivel and height adjustment, it is easy to get your comfort zone dialled in. I don’t normally get chairs with headrests, but this one is comfy, adjustable and feels solidly made.
Again, it’s no Herman Miller chair, but so far, sitting on this chairs compares well with my office Aeron.
Of course, time will tell if this chair stands up to to the usual abuse, but so far, I am very happy.
UPDATE: Over a year in service and no problems whatsoever. Just as comfortable and sturdy as day one.
Instructions and parts are very clear and chair assembled in about 30 mins. Only needed second pair of hands for final set up for about 5 mins.
The chair is very comfortable with multi adjustments to make it a personal comfy fit. I work at home for a number of days a week and this chair is very comfortable and a very high quality office chair. Buy with confidence.

From a support perspective, there are good options, adjustable lumbar support, and slightly adjustable headrest as well as movable arms and chair height. Unfortunately, comfort is a bit of a mixed bag, the base is great, however the lumbar is barely cushioned at all so can feel quite uncomfortable at times.
As for build quality overall, the product feels well made, the only criticism would be a slight wobble although this could be down to the assembly. I’ve given this 4 stars overall as it provides great value for money, at just under 160 I would happily recommend this chair for anyone spending a reasonable amount of time at a desk.

Needed to hook myself up with a new chair after I started getting a bit of a sore back with my old one. This one’s been just what the doctor ordered! It came well packaged with clear instructions and all the tools and bolts necessary were included, and there was a spare of every bolt and washer incase one went missing as they tend to do 😉 easier to assemble with 2 people though so one can hold the bigger pieces in place whilst the other bolts it down.
The adjustability on it is almost limitless. The armrests can do up and down; the headrest can go up, down, left and right; the lumbar support can go up and down; thw chair height can (obviously) go up and down; the chair backrest tension can be adjusted. Spent around five minutes setting everything to my exact body shape and it feels really good.
I found it nice and comfy with a wide base and armrests so I never felt squeezed in it, and I can easily sit on it for hours. It’s got a slim profile though so it doesn’t take up a lot of space in my small room either. I’d personally say it’s worth i
1. Very comfortable to sit in for more than a couple of hours (my old chair caused me mild back pain after an hour of sitting). The breathable mesh back keeps me fairly cool in my otherwise hot office.
2. Easy to follow instructions. It only took me 30 minutes to put it together. I suggest attaching the back onto the bottom bracket before installing it to the seat unless you have a second person around to help. You also might want to check the shims before you start construction. There are only a few that fit the large screws (I had to take 3 screws back out just to get the right shims).
3. Included everything you needed to put it together. They even threw in some mesh gloves if you don’t want to get your hands dirty!
4. The mostly metal construction feels very sturdy and like it will last.
5. Adjustable height arm rests are super nifty. Especially when you’re switching between different height desks like me on a regular basis.
6. The casters are very quiet and easy to roll. I can pretty much roll across the office in dead silence if I want.
Overall I’m happy with it so far. I’ve sat in more expensive chairs similar to this price and this chair doesn’t seem too far behind. It’s definitely worth the extra cash over the basic task chairs you’ll find everywhere. I’ll keep this review updated down the road depending on how well the chair holds up for me, but I think it should be okay for a long time. Cheers!
