I love this chair! It is very sturdy very easy to assemble. I think it took me less than an hour to put it all together. It fits me perfectly. Adjustment controls are easy to reach and readily responsive and the adjustable lumbar support bar makes it extra comfortable. The added headrest is an extra luxury that I could do without but when I'm having one of those difficult client moments it's better to bang my head on the headrest than on the desk or the wall!
Finally after 4 years trying out every chair I came across this is The One! Many adjustments allow my back to actually reach the chair back; lumbar support is great; height adjustments are easy and adapt to different activities; and most important base is stable. (I once had a chair flip-that was scary!)
I took the time to go to our local Staples and try every chair in the store. I am at a desk for most of the day and needed something with good support and definitely something comfortable. This chair does both. The instruction manual was easy to read and the chair was easy to assemble. I am pleased with the product and the price.
After sitting in the same chair for twenty years - and watching it list decidedly to the left - I decided it was time for a new chair. It being a holiday season I decided my staff should also have a new chair if she wanted one. She was complaining that her back and neck hurt continually and after studying her chair I could see why! I chose the Hyken Mesh Task Chair because I had tried a mesh chair at home and really liked it. When this chair popped up on sale we snapped up two. They were delivered - free - to our upstairs office (no elevator so this was a great service) within one business day. Late that afternoon after the rest of the staff was gone I put my chair together by myself. Though a little heavy it only took about 30 minutes. The next day my staff member put her chair together with a little help. After using them now for ten days she no longer is suffering neck and back pain. As she is an exceptional ballet dancer (with some equally exceptional office skills) this is a great improvement! And I am loving the springiness of the seat.
The chair is very comfortable. The main thing I like about it is that it provides great support. --it supports my back especially my lower back which I need. It has a bulge at lower back level which really helps. --The headrest also provides additional support for neck and shoulders--very few office chairs do this--so can lean back without strain. --it does not tilt back unless you really want it to so no unexpected backward jerk. Another good feature is that both the seat and the armrests drop to a low level--this allows me to use an underdesk keyboard (the armrests on some previous chairs kept hitting the sliding keyboard platform. Finaly its mesh construction ventilates and is cooler than leather or plastic material
