The chair itself is very comfortable. It's lightweight and moves around easily. The armrests are pretty firm but have a little bit of cushioning. My only complaint is the headrest. It can be adjusted up/down and rotated but even at its highest setting it is too low for anyone taller than probably 5' 8" unless you are reclining in the chair. There is a modification you can make to the headrest to bring it up another inch or 2 but it's not easy: you have to unscrew the bracket that's connected to the back of the headrest and flip it upside down (change it from a smiley face to a frown). To do so you have to unscrew 2 screws that are behind the mesh and the only way I was able to do it was to stick a narrow screwdriver through one of the holes in the mesh. Truth be told you don't even really use a headrest for normal office chair use and you can choose to not install it at all.
A very comfortable chair with possible improvments

The chair is very comfortable and seems to be made of good materials (combined metal and plastic). Having the adjustable arm rests is a huge plus compared to other ergonomic chairs that don't have them. I have both lower back and neck problems and I am happy with this chair. Some things to know though: - the head rest only has 2 different angle settings. - the parts in the back of the chair where the metal piece connects with the plastic seems to not be connected so tightly. It does not come apart at all but just looks as if it is broken. - the mesh material is not so soft so if you are sitting wearing shorts it might be a little unpleasant for some people. This is probably the same for all mesh chairs.
Chair itself is comfortable but the neck piece is not adjustable so it hit my upper back and not my neck I am 5’9 so not that tall. I ended up removing the neck piece did not feel like returning it since at least the chair is comfortable.
All 3 of my WFH siblings swear by this chair. It is better than what I was using but there's something about it that's not life-changing. I will say my neck does not hurt after 9hrs. Would recommend!
I got this chair on the recommendation of a co-worker for remote work. It is a huge upgrade from the wooden chair I was using. It’s very comfortable and highly recommend for anyone looking for a relatively inexpensive chair for a remote work upgrade.
