Great chair for the price.

I'm fortunate enough to have a Herman Miller Aeron chair at the office and love it. Previous to moving to new office space (with the new chairs) in my company I sat on a lot of old cushion chairs and found the padding wears out and they don't breath nearly as well. Enter my home office. I previously had a leather manager chair (not inexpensive) that was initially comfortable but apparently even expensive chairs wear out sooner than they should (seat padding flattened out within a year and I'm not exactly a large person (weigh around 135) so this was disappointing. It also didn't breath very well and after long sit downs during work at home days my seat became a bit sweaty. Time for something new so I began looking for a mesh chair similar to the one I had at work (though not as expensive). During a Black Friday special I decided to take a chance and purchase this chair... never having sat on it. I needed a new chair and the price was right (and it is mesh on the seat and back - unlike many other mesh chairs which are only mesh in the back but not the seat). Assembly is fairly easy. It only took me about 45 minutes and that's because I dove ahead and put it together in the wrong order (had to remove one part and re-do). Instructions could have been clearer but they aren't bad (what got me was that the second page of instructions was stuck to the first so I couldn't see it initially thus my mistake). It's not as well built or comfortable as the much more expensive Herman Miller Aeron nor does it have as many adjustments but we're talking a $179 chair (retail price on Amazon much less during the Black Friday sale) vs. a $600+ chair built for heavy office use. It also doesn't fit me quite as well as the more expensive chair (pretty close though). I'd expect there to be significant differences but in reality the differences are as big as I expected. The reclining feature is nice and works well for me. It breathes as expected so I don't sweat in it after hours of sitting. This is a big plus over my old chair. It's pretty comfortable overall though the lumbar support could be better (more flexible to get it at that "just right" spot... the Herman Miller chair has spoiled me). I'm not convinced I like the head support yet (sometimes I do sometimes it seems to be more in the way) but if I decide I don't want it it's easy to remove... no biggie. Overall I'm very pleased with the purchase. I hope the chair holds up and I can get a few good years out of it. It's not perfect (thus 4 stars which to me means it's very good) but it is a nice addition to my home office.

Bought this chair for my wife. Was able to put together in less than 40 minutes. I'd recommend this chair to anyone to use for a home office.

Love it!!!

Purchased this chair as a gift for my husband got Chrstmas. I was totally unsure of what chair to purchase him. He presently was using a leather chair and is was quite worn and with constantly banging it against his desk it was quite torn also. I was a bit overwhelmed going into Staples because there was such a large selection to choose from and a big difference in prices as well. After literally sitting in all of them even the leather ones I kept going back to the Hyken Technical Mesh Task Chair. It is by far the most comfortable office chair that I have ever sat it and most importantly my husband loves it!!

Bought this chair for my son who is in college He's been using this chair for about 2weeks now and he really like the chair It was easy set up (he did it by himself) He says it's very comfortable and because it's mesh material his back and bottom doesn't get hot like other chairs setting down for long period

Uncomfortable and cheap
on May 1, 2024

This chair is not good for daily use or extended periods of use. It is very uncomfortable due to think butt and armrest padding. It also feels really cheap and the little white arm rest caps keep falling out. If you only use it once and a while and not for long periods of time. It's okay but still not good.
