This is the second one of these chairs I have purchased for our office. The chair is EXTREMELY comfortable durable and the mesh is wonderful as the office I currently work in has no air conditioning. I have a bad back and require exceptional lower back support which this chair certainly delivers. As a side note the head rest is of no use or value in my opinion; possibly even a hindrance when turning your head. I would highly recommend purchasing this chair (and opting out on the head rest when assembling).
Saw all the reviews and been waiting for this chair for offers. Bought it for a great price and I love the chair. Easy assembly and very comfortable. I would really recommend this chair.
The mesh fabric on both the bottom and the back is very comfortable especially in summer since it allows for good ventilation. I don't sweat while sitting as I do in leather or vinyl bottom chairs. Whether it will be comfortable in winter remains to be seen. The chair is sturdy enough for my 200+ lbs. And the headrest is excellent giving my neck some rest while reading or simply leaning back to take a break. I'm considering buying another to replace my chair at work.
Just got the chair. I work in a hot environment and regular leather chairs make me too warm. So far the chair is much more comfortable. It could be softer with more lumbar support but I like it!
For years at home I've had "comfortable" chairs the ones with the pleather seats that either have 2 settings for reclining or don't provide head/neck support adequately. That is until I purchased this baby. There are so many settings to get the seat just right and they're easy to adjust. The back/seat is ventilated so the chair isn't retaining heat during the hot summer days and I don't need to worry about the pleather pealing after a few years. The neck rest is out of this world and immediately I can feel the tension in my neck leave while I'm resting in this.
This chair is comfortable for those who have a lower bottom half. The reason it is uncomfortable for heavier people is that the edge of the chair curves up and therefore digs into the side of the leg of heavier people. However everything else considered this chair is a good chair that offers good support and you could do a lot worse than this chair. All this chair is missing for ultimate comfort is a foot rest.
I'm 6' tall and the headrest hits me in the shoulders. The seat is also to too short to be comfortable for me. It might be fine for someone shorter. The seat and back are very abrasive but they might smooth some with use.
Great Chair and great price! Staples Hyken Technical Mesh Task Chair Black.

We seem to go through office chairs faster than we should. The "leather look" tears from rubbing against the desk and we have had to replace several chairs. This mesh chair is comfortable light-weight and works for everyone whether short or tall light or heavy.
