Comfortable Supportive and Durable
on November 8, 2025
Posted by: aubsp
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Staples Hyken XL Ergonomic Fabric Swivel Big & Tall Chair for several weeks, and it’s quickly become one of the most comfortable office chairs I’ve owned. The larger frame offers great support without feeling bulky, and the breathable fabric keeps me cool even during long work sessions.
Adjusting the chair to fit my body was simple — the tilt tension, lumbar support, and armrests are all easy to fine-tune. I really appreciate how solid and stable it feels, especially when leaning back or swiveling.
The overall look is sleek and professional, blending perfectly with my home office setup. The fabric gives it a premium feel while still being practical for everyday use.
What I like most is how balanced it feels — supportive enough for long hours, yet soft and flexible enough to stay comfortable throughout the day. It’s a great choice for anyone who needs extra space and strong ergonomic support.

Great Desk Chair for Tall Guys
on November 7, 2025
Posted by: Good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really enjoying the Staples Hyken XL Ergonomic Fabric Swivel Big & Tall Chair. As someone who’s over 6'4", it’s a perfect fit!
The seat cushion is very comfortable, and the lumbar support is excellent—fully adjustable to suit your needs. The headrest is a great addition. This is my first desk chair with a headrest, and I find it both comfortable and positioned at the right height to actually rest my head.
The adjustable armrests work best for me at their maximum height, so there’s limited flexibility there. However, the wide design of the armrests is a major upgrade from my previous chair—definitely a plus.
My only negative experience was with the setup process:

My only negative experience was with the setup process:
The instructions were placed at the bottom of the box, which meant I had to unpack everything before I could even begin.
Some screws weren’t packaged in the correct compartments, so I had to sort them by size manually.
Assembly is really a two-person job. I managed about 75% on my own but needed help toward the end to hold and position parts correctly.

Overall, I’m very happy with this chair. It’s comfortable, supportive, and well-suited for taller individuals.

Comfortable

The only thing I don't like about this chair is the arms rotating. The up and down and forward and back lock, the rotating does not. I am constantly moving them accidentally. Other than that it is very comfortable.

Just Worth It
on November 7, 2025
Posted by: BiggerTaller
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s not everyday you find something that fits just right. Even less frequent that you find something that fits both you and your coworker who was a D1 Defensive Lineman. I’m not small. At 6’2” and 240 I’m an XL in everything, and this chair was big for me. But not oversized. Just actually big enough, at its tallest setting my feet didn’t touch the floor. That NEVER happens!! Lots of lumbar support, a head rest (surprisingly comfy), and a cushion that can support those big boy bottoms - I’m recommending this to all my former football friends.

Great for big and tall people
on November 6, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a 6'1" 250lb man I really enjoy this chair. This is probably the widest office chair I have ever owned. It makes it extremely comfortable. I generally struggle to find chairs that are tall enough for me to lean back with head support and this one fits me perfectly with the adjustable head rest. The mesh back is a nice feature so it doesn't get hot and the cloth bottom is way more comfortable than having a mesh seat so I'm glad this has both styles put together. I would highly recommend this chair to all my fellow big and tall people.

Staples Hyken XL Ergonomic Fabric Swivel Chair
on November 6, 2025
Posted by: Chair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, the Stapels Hyken XL Ergonomic Fabric Swivel Big & Tall chair provides an exceptional combination of comfort, functionality, and style. Its wide, supportive cushion and thoughtfully adjustable features make it suitable for long hours of work, while its elegant design and sturdy build enhance its aesthetic appeal and durability. The ease of adjustments and the comfort it offers, especially for extended use, make it a highly recommended choice. I am very satisfied with its performance and would confidently suggest it to others seeking a reliable and comfortable office seating solution.
I am very pleased with this office chair and would highly recommend it to others. It is exceptionally comfortable, even during long periods of use. The wide seat with a soft yet firm cushion provides excellent support, and I never feel cramped or hindered by the armrests, which are adjustable in both width and height for optimal comfort. The adjustable headrest is also a great feature—it easily adapts to a comfortable position, offering good head support while I work.
Adjustments on this chair work smoothly and are very user-friendly. The seat height range comfortably accommodates various leg lengths and sitting postures. The headrest adjusts effortlessly and stays securely in place, enabling me to rest my head comfortably while typing.
In terms of appearance, the chair has an elegant and sleek design that looks great behind my desk. Despite its refined look, it is lightweight and easy to maneuver, with a solid build that feels very sturdy.
What I like most about this chair is the wide cushion, which greatly enhances comfort. As someone with neuropathy, I often experience foot pain after long hours of sitting. Since using this chair, I’ve noticed a significant reduction in foot pain, which has made a remarkable difference in my daily routine.

Great Chair just not for me
on November 6, 2025
Posted by: NotSoBigGuy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was very impressed with the quality and build of this chair. It was easy to put together and pretty adjustable - however, I'm about 6'1" and it was just too tall for me. It's very attractive, designed well and smartly, and I liked the adjustable headrest and lumbar the most. Definitely recommend for those over 6'2" and on the heavier side as it's incredibly sturdy and well built.

Great Chair
on November 5, 2025
Posted by: Bigguy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Staples Hyken XL Ergonomic Fabric Swivel Big & Tall Chair is a pleasure to sit in at my home office. This is a fantastic chair for a larger guy which I am and finding a chair for me is not an easy task. The assembly of the chair took a little bit yet there was nothing I couldn’t handle. The padded cushion is fantastic for long days of sitting and working. The back is nice and breathable, so the chair has not gotten hot on my back. Everything on this chair is adjustable, which made it so wonderful once I had all of my choices dialed in. It might be me yet I wish this chair was all black with no silver on it as it as I not a huge fan of silver. This chair looks like a much more expensive high-end chair and functions just as well too. If you are a big and or tall person do yourself a favor and buy yourself a Staples Hyken XL Ergonomic Fabric Swivel Big & Tall Chair.
