Disappointing
on March 8, 2025
Posted by: THOMAS J.
I am very disappointed in this chair. The pros are that it looks good and is easy to assemble. Unfortunately these are outweighed by the cons that make the chair borderline unusable. The biggest issue is the headrest. I am only 5'10" but at its highest setting the headrest is sticking into my shoulder blades with is very uncomfortable. I think this would be an issue for anyone over 5'7" or 5'8". This is also the most narrow office chair I have ever had at work or for my home office. Almost certainly returning.

Looks like a good chair but it's too short and the neck rest is too low. I am 5'7''. If it was mentioned that it's for short people it would be helpful.
Within a couple of days the seat mesh became too loose or sagging/sinking even though my weight is only 140lbs. The sagging mesh made it very uncomfortable to sit on as the the body weight now lands on the seat's front edge. Imagine sitting on a cushioned bar. Also the headrest piece is positioned too low and its angle cannot be adjusted. Maybe it is better to use the chair without the headrest for most of the people. I purchased the chair mainly for the 4.5 out of 5 rating with 12K reviews. But it turned out to be the worst office chair I purchased during the recent years. Maybe I got a defected mesh seat?
