not for the tall or long-bodied
on January 25, 2021
Posted by: mringram.pe
I am only 6ft but I am disproportionately long-bodied. If you are like me or are taller overall you know the discomfort of airplane-seat headrests fitting between your shoulders or your lower neck. The headrest on this chair is marginally adjustable: it tilts a bit. And the back of the chair does not raise/lower which is fine except for the awkward resultant placement of the headrest -- right between my shoulders. I had to remove the headrest completely. Assembly is straightforward no tools other than the provided Allen-key are required. A few of the parts are a bit heavy (seat plate) and some folks might benefit from a second set of hands in the final steps of assembly.

Really comfortable my only gripe is that the arms could go lower but it's nothing a little tinkering and some washers couldn't fix

Pretty solid and comfortable chair. Easy to build. Only issue is that the headrest leaves my head/neck slightly lopsided when I use it. This is due to the fabric not being attached perfectly horizontal and causing uneven weight distribution when I rest on it. I also wish that it could lean back even further.

I didn’t think I would use the head rest but I do and it is comfortable. I’m a happy camper so far.

Easy assembly. Not hugely adjustable but if it fits you you don’t really need it. Adjustable armrests are good and there is a simple lumbar adjustment. Very comfortable in a lively way. Durability will be the big question but at this point it is a perfect value for me.

Overall pretty decent. Things I like: - I like the mesh material and the headset. Definitely favorite parts of the chair. - Lumbar support is pretty decent. Little difficult to adjust but overall a positive. - Tilt tension adjustability/amount is pretty good. Things that could be better: - The tilt lock has set levels which feels a bit limited. When you release the tilt lock there's a fair degree of adjustability which is great but once you lock the tilt the chair will lock into one of the preset tilt amounts (at least that's what's happened to me). - Some of the plastic does feel a bit cheaper than other chairs of similar type that I've used but at this price point something's got to give. Overall -- happy with my purchase. Good budget competitor to higher-end chairs that tend to be >$300.

I bought this chair for someone for a holiday gift & they keep raving about it. They’ve said that they find it comfortable and that they’re able to work from home without feeling extra achey from sitting uncomfortably all day. They also noted that they can still sit cross-legged in the chair if they need to too so the chair is spacious enough for that. Now I just need to get myself one!

The chair gives my back and neck support needed to get through a full work day. I purchased for my home office and it isn't so large that it overwhelms my small space. Its easy to move around and I am pleased with the quality.
