Solid office chair headrest too short
on January 14, 2021
Posted by: Z.W.
Overall this is a very good office chair. My only disappointment is the head rest height is not adjustable and it's too short for me to use. I am 6'0" and when sitting up straight my shoulders hit the head rest.
Best office chair I've ever had or sat on period. Very comfortable for sitting hours on end especially while working from home. Completely cured lower back pains associated with my old chair. Only con is the mesh weave is not a typical soft fabric material it's actually hard rough plastic weave. Although this plastic weave may be stronger and last longer than a softer material (but it is a rough surface when working in only your underwear!) That being said still the best office chair I've sat on. Highly recommend
What I liked: - Easy to use controls on the bottom of the chair for reclining and height. Also you don't feel like you are about to fall over when reclining far back. - Comfortable especially with the lumbar support. I was able to adjust the support to the perfect position. - Packaging didn't use styrofoam at all instead relying on cardboard and plastic wrap. Much less mess than other furniture I've assembled because of this. - All tools and parts for assembly are pre-sorted and available. Don't need a screwdriver just the supplied allen wrench. What I didn't like: - Like other reviews state the headrest is at a questionable height. I am 5'10 and even at its max adjusted height the headrest sits at just above my shoulder blades when sitting upright. I ended up removing it two days after getting the chair and it's been sitting on a shelf ever since. - The width of the armrests aren't adjustable without loosening three bolts you add during assembly. Overall Thoughts: Overall I would definitely recommend this chair. The headrest is a shame but this chair is still a good value even without it.
Pros: Easy to assemble Quiet smooth glide on a hardwood floor chair mat Airy not itchy material Adjustable levers knoe easy to operate Cons Headrest is nice but only swivels in a circular motion No up and down or back and forward adjustments Its stationary but for the pivoting I use a seat cushion and the headrest is alittie to low too and i cant adjust it up Arm rests aren’t cushioned just solid plastic
