I have three close friends who have this chair and all recommended it to me. I figured it must be a pretty safe bet. And working from home during quarantine I need a good quality chair! It is a comfortable enough chair but a week into sitting on it I started noticing bent staples on the floor around my chair. I recently discovered the source -- the mesh of the seat of the chair is held into its frame by staples which are popping out at an increasing rate. As I lose them I lose the stability of the seat. Soon my chair will be a fancy plastic frame for a big hole where the seat used to be. I am not a particularly big or heavy person 170lb. I have been using it pretty heavily over the past week but certainly not jumping on it or picking at it or anything like that. What a shame for what could have been a good product.
I replaced a 20 year old Herman Miller chair that was starting to become long in the tooth. The new Hyken chair is an excellent replacement and the deep red color coordinates well with other furniture in my office and home. It is comfortable moves easily and was straight forward to assemble (by my 13 yo grandson).
The chair took me 2 hours to put together but that's because I'm thorough. My friends say it should have taken me only 30 minites. What can I say. The instructions were very easy to follow and the packaging was great. But.... it's very comfortable and I'm SO happy with my chair! Now I can work from home during this pandemic safely and comfortably. Yay! Very smart purchase.
Happy with the choice. Easy to put together. Extremely fast delivery. The headrest is useless for anyone tall. I'm 6'1" and the headrest comes up to the base of my neck and actually hurts to use so I removed it altogether. A shame they don't create chairs with an ability to adjust for both taller and smaller folks. But happy overall. A good relatively inexpensive choice.
