A lot of manual adjustments had to be made to be able to sit in this chair the whole day while working. By end of day needed pillows in back and on bottom to be more comfortable. Also need a foot rest as my legs get pins and needles.
I work from home so I got this chair since my old one was a tiny office chair that was giving me back pain. With this new chair my back pain is gone and I’m able to complete my 8 hour work day in comfort! The armrests could be more comfortable though.
I started working from home a few months ago and was using a chair that caused lower back pain. I finally found this chair and read all the great reviews on how it helps to provide support to your back. I must say that this chair did not disappoint. It’s very comfortable and definitely provides back support not to mention that it was also very easy to assemble.
Product took a week longer to arrive than was originally intended due to delivery people losing the package meaning they had to ship out a second one which then arrived incredibly quick. When it did arrive though I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to assemble and how much better it is than my previous chair.
Pros: My back posture is now way better. One of the few chairs where the head rest can actully be used instead of it being a decretive item like on the Lazyboy versions of this. Decently adjustable. Cons: The mesh is somewhat abrasive and pulls your shirt up. I'm thinking of putting a cloth over the mesh to help but the mesh while good at keeping you in place makes it uncomfortable to sit in if you only have pants on. The other con is that if you are a wide set person is that.. well this chair is not for you. I'm barely within its width. I'm not even grossly overweight I just have a little heft and I feel like it's squeezing me in. However if you are of average size this will be very good for you! The in-between. The building process had quite of few non-recyclable materials in there and lots of tape covered carboard. If your environmentally conscious this chair is a little on the wasteful side. Wish the arm rests had more width to them.
My wife loves this chair which was reccommended by friends. Keep in mind that if you are 6 feet tall or on the heavy side this may not work so well for you however. t
