Good chair. The adjustment of back support is a bit weird. Make sure to try it out in a Staples store before buying. Different models felt quite different. I'm happy with my chair.
Sturdy comfortable chair. The mesh keeps you cool while sitting in it. The headrest is worthless though. I'm 6' and the top of my shoulders touched it so I had to remove it. However the chair is perfect without it so I didn't remove any stars for that.
Best Ergonomic Chair. Trust me I've tried Steelcase.

There cannot be a better ergonomic chair for people who are in the range of 5'2" to 5 '5" than Hyken Mesh Task Chair. This year I wanted to get a good ergonomic chair regardless of how pricy it is so started with Steelcase Leap spending close to a thousand bucks. After about 2-3 days of use I had a serious lower back pain and immediately returned it. Then I went on to check other chairs on Slickdeals website and it brought me to Staples Hyken with a lot of positive reviews. I immediately purchased it and it's been around a month since I purchased it I would say it is very comfortable great upper neck/back of the head support in the lowest tilt position (among 3 positions). The arms can be adjusted vertically back tilt can be adjusted too. Back tilt adjustment is interesting with a safety feature that will not immediately force the mesh on your back when you change position. The mesh feels like it is too hard in the beginning but I got used to it and started loving it. Pleased with the way I feel even after sitting on this for hours together. DO NOT assume that an expensive chair will be comfortable but BE SURPRISED that inexpensive ones like these can be comfortable beyond expectations.
I didn't think I'd like the headrest but when I do lean back in a conference call it's awesome. The lumbar isn't as adjustable as I'd like but at the sale pricepoint I'd be whining. Not sure how long that mesh seat will last but I'm sure it won't ablate like that bonded leather. Worth a spin!
