very uncomfortable

it's the most uncomfortable chair I've ever sit on. The backrest forwards too much thus it's actually oppressing your lumbar instead of supporting it. It's good for completely laying down on it to watch a video but it's a torture if you sit on it and trying to actually do some work. Trying to return it but I didn't keep the box guess it won't happen.
I sought this chair to replace my existing and very comfortable Armchair. Unfortunately as a computer graphic designer and PhD candidate I spend hours at a time reading or typing or simply doing research. That a lot of wear on one's back so I did my homework and I discovered Staples' Hyken™ Technical Mesh Task Chair. It featured Silver Technical Mesh upholstery and T-arms that adjust for ergonomic positioning. Plus a Pneumatic Seat Height Adjustment Fixed lumbar support Center tilt with adjustable tilt. This chair is perfect for me and is priced just right.
Solid home office chair that provides good lumbar support and comfort. Fully adjustable with headrest to accommodate various sitting needs throughout a long work day. Chair required two people to assemble but only took 10 minutes. Directions were clearly written and intuitive for a novice to mid-level experienced assembler.
I've searched forever for the perfect office chair and this is it! Being a small framed woman most office chairs are built for men and are too wide and too big. This chair is just right. The mesh has a lot of give and support at the same time. It feels bouncy and cushiony when you sit on it! And the neck and head support is great!! It feels so good when you lean back. This chair hugs and supports your back your butt and your neck. Its perfect!! I would highly recommend it!
I have had the chair less than a month but so far it looks and feels like a good-quality chair. It was easy to assemble it is comfortable and it's adjustable. It also looks nice and neat (especially without the head rest) so it really to "fits the bill." Although Staples originally shipped a chair to me quickly it actually arrived in a damaged box with a couple of broken parts. (This product really could be packaged a little better to avoid that type of problem....) But I called Staples immediately and company was very responsive in sending out a new replacement--which is great. (Now I'm just waiting for them to come and pick up the broken one.)
This seems to be a good chair and works well for me. I needed one that was ergonomically sound. I had someone assemble it at the store so I can't vouch for that part of the equation. So far I am pleased.
I like everything about this chair with one exception; the headrest needs to be more easily adjusted. I am six feet tall and my shoulders hit the headrest. If the adjustment was easier to get to I think I could make it fit better.
This is the most comfortable desk chair I've ever used. The lumbar support is excellent. Being able to tilt back and relax while working is a plus. The chair is in my den where I have a TV. When I'm at the computer working on my photography I can sit for long periods of time. When I take a break I tilt back and relax in the chair and turn to watch a little TV. I'm so comfortable that I forget that I'm in an office chair! I also like the headrest. It gives my neck a break when I'm sitting for long periods of time.
