So comfortable and adjustable
on August 10, 2025

from Apex
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Hyken Pro chair exceeded my expectations once we put it together. It is quite stylish and modern and will look so nice at my desk. Most importantly the chair is designed for comfort for most sizes. My husband and I both tried it out and we really like the levers in the right side of the chair especially because they are labeled appropriately so that you know which is for the height adjustment and which is for the recline function of the chair. This chair is very supportive and comfortable to sit in for long periods of time especially when I am on the phone with insurance or other phone calls that I don’t want to make. I am primarily using this chair at my desk for work purposes but it is easy to roll around and use for extra seating in the living room.

Great adjustability and value

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone with chronic joint pain I’m thrilled with how effortlessly this chair adjusts to my needs. I frequently need to change positions throughout the day and this chair makes that a breeze. The lumbar and neck support are also very nice. I’m 5’ 6” and found the size perfect but if my 6’ tall husband needs to borrow the chair it’s quick and easy to adjust the chair for his height. The arm rests have a pleasant subtle cushion-like feel and the construction is solid and sturdy. It was fairly straightforward for me to assemble (although you do need to find a table or raised surface to work on). Considering the comfort is comparable to my other desk chair which cost over twice as much the value is excellent.

Worth it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This chair is super comfortable! I will admit I was a little worried about getting a chair and building it myself but that was probably my favorite part putting it together. It was so easy to do the instructions were clear and I Iiked how all the necessary screws for each step were separated and labeled by step. The glide on the chair wheels is great really smooth and stable. There are so many features for comfort and support so its hard to pick out my favorite but basically every part of the chair is able to be adjusted for comfort. Even the head piece you can flip it back if you don't need it there. I work 8 hours at a computer and I have definitely felt a difference in my circulation in my legs from the chair. I know it's due to the lower back support the way the chair supports it and encourages my posture. Overall great feeling after a long work day!

I really wanted to like this chair but the seat is not long enough and the headrest is next to useless. It's just not comfortable to sit in for more than an hour

Comfortable with personalised adjustments
on August 8, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this chair while working from home for the past week (~8hrs/day). It has been way more comfortable than I expected. It really supports my body in all the right places and has a lot of little adjustments and padding that make a big difference. Pros: •Excellent Adjustability: The chair offers small but meaningful adjustments in multiple areas—lower back headrest and armrests—which allowed me to really tailor it to my body. The added lumbar support was especially helpful. My husband was able to tweak it easily for his own comfort too. •Breathable Backrest: The breathable mesh back has made a huge difference during hot California summer days. •Well-Padded Seat: The seat cushion is thick and comfortable though possibly a bit too wide if you have a smaller frame. •Ergonomic Fit: Once adjusted the chair supports my posture throughout the day and has noticeably reduced fatigue and back discomfort. Cons: •Industrial Aesthetic: The black version has a very utilitarian almost industrial look. It’s functional but not exactly stylish. •Assembly Instructions: While putting the chair together wasn’t difficult overall the instructions were vague and could definitely use improvement. I had to disassemble something after I installed it incorrectly since the instructions weren’t clear. Overall: If you prioritize comfort and ergonomic adjustability over sleek design this chair is an excellent choice. It’s ideal for anyone who spends long hours working at a computer and wants a customizable breathable seating experience—especially in warmer climates.

Breathable office chair
on August 8, 2025
Posted by: P.L.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I'd give this chair 3 stars and here's why. First the pros: This chair is definitely breathable and even for extended periods of sitting in it my back stayed nice and cool. It is also super adjustable in many different areas so it can meet your needs. I was so happy that aside from the overall height being adjustable the arm rests were adjustable in three different ways including the height so it was able to fit my desk height. I am 5"1 so my desk is on the shorter side so those adjustment features were definitely a plus for me. Now the feature that I used most and was disappointed with that led to three stars despite my over loving of this chair the adjustable recline. I loved this feature so much and used it often because when I wasn't actively using my computer I wanted to recline slightly to be more comfortable. However after a couple of days despite being in the locked position when I leaned back the chair was free reclining and I was startled. This soon happened again every so often to the point that now I am more aware every time I sit back just in case it is free reclining again. If this feature corrects itself than for sure this chair is 5/5. Overall this chair looks nice is comfortable breathable and highly adjustable.

Extremely comfortable for long work days

from Fairchance
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m extremely impressed with the comfort and adjustability of the Hykren pro desk chair. It was easy to put together with simple instructions. This is made with strong and heavy material which makes this chair perform well and hold up to 275lbs. It easily adjusts in many ways such as; arm rest height lowering and increased height of the chair cervical comfort and adjustment. I have been using this in my office and love how supportive it is. I really love how you can adjust the chair to lean back and slightly recline. This is a chair that supports my neck and I can work a full days in without getting sore. I would highly recommend this product and look forward to continued use.
