Years ago I purchased my first Hyken Mesh Tash Chair. I needed another chair and did not hesitate to purchase my second Hyken Mesh Task Chair. The chair is substantial and has enough options for adjustments I think most people would be satisified. The only difficulty I had assembling it is that once the mechanism for adjustments is attached to the bottom of the chair the seat is quite heavy. I didn't catch on that the back of the chair went between the support beam and needed help from the store to assemble it. Hence the four star rating instead of a five star rating. The staff at Staples were quite helpful in finishing the assembly. I recommend this chair for a person who needs to sit for long periods of time.
I had high hopes for this chair but after sitting in it to work for less than an hour my back was in spasms. I tried again the next day and had the same result so I returned the chair. I am a small person (5’2”) and although the chair will adjust some it wouldn’t adjust enough for my size.
Everything was great except the screw that the headrest didn’t work. It seems that the grooves for the screw were already worn out or just not functional. The headrest won’t stay straight and I can’t get a screw in it to hold it. I’m disappointed. The attraction was the great alignment from head to toe.
Should have listened to the other reviews- I'm 6' & 200 lbs- which is both too tall & too heavy for this chair. The mesh isn't tight enough to support the weight so it drags right away. My wife is 5'2" and much lighter- she really likes the chair. So depending on your size this could be a great chair.
This is better than my dining chair used in wfh. I love that I can tilt it to relax once in a while from typing on the laptop. It just fits my body perfectly like when I tried it in store.
