Seats starting sagging after one year

The chair was nice and firm for the first year but now the seat is loose and sagging it is difficult to sit and feel uncomfortable. Looking into warranty coverage.

This chair is almost unusable for anyone 6ft tall or larger. I'm 6'1" and the headrest sticks out and hits the center of my shoulder blades. There is no way to sit back without the head rest hitting uncomfortably into my back/shoulders. If you're shorter than 5'10" you're not going to mind maybe.
Looks like a good chair but it's too short and the neck rest is too low. I am 5'7''. If it was mentioned that it's for short people it would be helpful.
Within a couple of days the seat mesh became too loose or sagging/sinking even though my weight is only 140lbs. The sagging mesh made it very uncomfortable to sit on as the the body weight now lands on the seat's front edge. Imagine sitting on a cushioned bar. Also the headrest piece is positioned too low and its angle cannot be adjusted. Maybe it is better to use the chair without the headrest for most of the people. I purchased the chair mainly for the 4.5 out of 5 rating with 12K reviews. But it turned out to be the worst office chair I purchased during the recent years. Maybe I got a defected mesh seat?
