If you are doing this yourself it's not so difficult to assemble. Instructions are easy and well matched. I prefer mesh over any other synthetic materials consequently good aeration.I would rated 5 but I am not certain of the life span of the mesh.
This chair is the most comfortable chair I've owned. I sit for hours so I needed a comfortable chair and the sale price was a unbelievable. I couldn't have been able to afford this chair if it wasn't for the sale and mesh is definitely the way to go! The chair is made solid don't have to worry about tipping over. I am very happy with it so glad I didn't rush into buying something else the timing was perfect. Staples had the best selection and pricing on chairs. If you are in the market to buy I highly recommend you first check with Staples.
For those of us who have to do work in a seated position the chair we spent those work-hours in is one of the easiest to overlook and most important NOT to overlook. This Hyken Mesh chair was one of my pricier investments as far as chairs go. As someone who is respected for his opinions in the functional sports med field ergonomics is a major consideration to me when I think of optimal performance. This chair coaxes your body into preserving the cervical & lumbar curves while allowing you to sit upright or recline comfortably. The adjustable height and armrests make working comfortable and the mesh seat & back allow me to do work without overheating as I sometimes tend to run hot.
It is a nice chair .... however .... the description online indicates it will support a 250 lb. person but the instruction indicate and the warning label on the chair indicate 225 lbs.
This and other type mesh chairs are simply the copy of the original mesh much more expensive chair by Herman Miller. Because I am 6ft tall I would of liked more thigh room and taller back I had to remove the head rest as it's no use for someone my height they should of had an adjustable head rest for taller people. I am not experiencing squeeky sounds like some people have posted. Most likely going to buy the more expensive brands as I use the chair a lot as I work from home a lot.
I have finally found a comfortable desk chair. I have chronic lower back problems and find sitting for long periods of time causes pain. This chair allows me to sit longer (plus it stays cooler than my leather chair)
