This is a nice chair. Mesh is very comfortable – especially in the warm summer months. It has adjustments for both neck and lumbar support. However you should sit in the chair for at least ten minutes before buying. The seat cushion is a bit short and the back is upright. You may find this setup a bit uncomfortable especially if you don't set the back to easily recline. Setup was very easy and took about a half hour from opening the box to recycling the cardboard. The box is heavy so take this into account if you are assembling it upstairs. A good chair overall.
This is a great chair at a good price. I didn’t think I would need the headrest but it’s an integral part of the chair. The mesh support makes it feel like you’re suspended with very little pressure points. The height is adjustable and it reclines to your specifications. The arm rest could use more variations and the tension knob can become a little hard but other than that it’s a great chair. It makes working from home a lot easier on the body.
Yeah get one! Get two. I was floored at the quality of this chair. 3 years ago this chair was selling for around $300. You can sit in this chair for hours at a time. This will be money well spent.
I bought this to replace an older foam seat chair. The foam / leather office chairs are just too hot and sweaty the mesh back and seat are really important especially in the summer. I have the Dexley as well so this can serve as a comparison. I also bought them both with my money and have not be compensated for a review. The dexley is great but definitely bigger and wider which is why I wanted to try the Hyken. I am 5'8 160lb. The seat depth on the Dexley was a bit deep so sometimes I used a small pillow in my low back for proper support but it is not needed. I wanted to try the hyken as it is smaller. It feels great very ergonomic. The arm paddings isn't great but better than plastic. The arm raising and lower is nicer on the dexley than the hyken. What is odd is the upright position for the hyken feels severe such that i want to recline a bit even when sitting up straight. They hyken does have locking positions along the recline which is nice as the dexley does not. The main drawback on the hyken is the neck rest. I am 5'8 so not very tall and the neck rest on the hyken is like at the top of my spine in the tallest position. I may just remove it because it feels weird especially when sitting in the 90deg vertical position. It is pushing against the back of my shoulders. When fully reclined it feels to be in the right position though. Super weird I feel like it needs to be like 4-8in taller. For tall people you will probably want to remove it. Other than that great chair no issues sitting 4-8 hours a day so far for work. I use the dexley at my gaming desk and its great for 4-6 hours as well. I've had the dexley for a year and the hyken for a week.
