Customer Reviews for Staples - Hyken Ergonomic Mesh Swivel Task Chair, (ST63139) - Charcoal Gray

I made the mistake of buying this chair without testing it out first. Online reviews and videos rave about this chair - the different adjustments ease of use and easy assembly are all really good but at the end of the day it just wasn't as comfortable as something padded and nowhere near as comfortable as the Herman Miller Aeron which for some odd reason others have compared this chair to. The Aeron chair was one I was able to test and the reason I pulled the trigger on purchasing this one because of the cheaper price and comparisons. It may have something to do with my height (5'4") not really sure but I'm not able to sit in the Hyken for as long as I was able to sit in my old sub $100 office chair also from Staples. That was a fully padded chair with a smaller footprint and less adjustments than the Hyken but I never had to think about how much time I'd be able to sit in it comfortably. I can only sit in the Hyken for about 3-4 hours on average before I need to stretch myself out or get up and adjust my spine - I don't really feel like the ergonomics help me that much. There is a small slope towards the back of the seat where the back of the chair and the seat connect - having that slope there causes a pressure point in my rear end and one of the main reasons I can't sit in this chair for too long. The Hyken just feels too stiff in general - the seating and chairback are not a soft-to-the-touch mesh material which isn't pleasant to sit on and has me looking into other alternatives. Long-story-short: Make sure you test drive this chair before buying.

This chair lives up to its expectations. It is made of a very comfortable and breathable mesh material it is supportive in the lumbar back seat and head and it’s a well built chair. Would recommend.

I was looking for a good desk chair when I ran into this one and so far it has good stability and flexibility and also it holds the weight capacity as specified on the box so it’s a go for me on this one👌

I'm not an office chair expert but for 2 weeks now this chair has been comfortable and cool (temp) for full days in the office. It's also pretty sturdy and was easy to assemble.

It is very comfortable. I am a big woman and I am able to sit all day in it without issues. This is the third chair I bought in the last 5 months. Wish it was the first.

Love this chair. You definitely can’t beat it for the price! Very easy to assemble as well.

Easy to assemble except castors require fair amount of strength to push in. Only used short time so hope it holds up to average use.
