Incredible purchase. Just what I needed. So easy to put together. I am in school online and working remotely so this is making it so much easier to complete my work and not worry about neck or back pain. Highly Recommend this chair to everyone!!!
I've used plenty of chairs but this Hyken one is hands down my favorite. I'm able to sit in it all day without any discomfort and my posture is impeccable thanks to the design. I bought one a year ago for my studio and just bought my girlfriend a new one about a few weeks ago due to discomfort she was feeling from some other chair and she's in love with the comfort from her new Hyken. Def recommend.
Great chair that meets all my needs (+ Comparison between Hyken vs Marret vs Dexley)

I am super satisfied with the Hyken! For a few weeks I was on the search for a good chair under the $200 range. Before buying the Hyken I tried the Marrett & Dexley chair as well as a few other ones in-person at the Staples store (Osgood Kroy Union & Scale Essentials chair etc.) For info I am 5'6" 155 lbs female with a longer torso/shorter legs. **Pro tip: Make sure to go to a Staples store and sitting on a few chairs before buying. You will save a lot of time and money.** After purchasing the Marrett chair from Quill sitting on it for a week and returning it I found out what are the important features (for me) in buying a chair. Then I bought the Hyken on a whim as a gift and realized that it met all of my requirements + more Hyken vs Marret vs Dexley 1. Breathable & comfortable seat (I will be sitting on it for a long time) -Marret: Fabric seat got hot after sitting on it for a while -Hyken: Breathable mesh fabric for the back and seat (awesome!) -Dexley: Also mesh material 2. Seat that isn't too wide (so that my arms can be closer to my sides) AND Seat that isn't too deep (so that I am not forced to sit on the edge of my seat without back support) -Marret: Seat depth (19.3") Seat width (17.7") - Seat too deep -Hyken: Seat depth (16.5") Seat width (19.3") - Just right! (although adjustable seat width would be great) -Dexley: Seat depth (28.3") Seat width (18.3") - Seat too wide 3. Seat that doesn't make me feel like I'm leaning forward -Marret & Dexley: Felt like I was sliding out of my seat -Hyken: Sitting was suuper comfortable not sure why - maybe the way the seat is curved and the seat dimensions? 4 Bonus: Recline -Marret: Hard to recline -Hyken: Super easy recline if I lean back I could totally take a nap in this chair -Dexley: No recline As you can tell I love the Hyken chair! Also it helps that I was able to get it price matched from Quill.com so I paid $189.99 plus a $10 off coupon. So my purchase with tax was under $210! Also I've seen this chair go on sale a few weeks ago for $189.99 so I'm sure the sale will come around again. I'd highly recommend this chair to anyone! But before you purchase--make sure you go into a Staples store and try it! Another chair might be a better fit for you.
I am short (5' even) and since I have had to work from home and my employer wouldn't let me bring home my Aeron I have been searching for a chair. This chair is just about perfect. The mesh back and seat are comfortable and the lumbar support adjusts well. The seat height doesn't go totally as low as I need but much lower than most chairs so I can adapt. The head rest is a nice extra but I probably won't utilize it much. One of the features I really needed was to be able to adjust the armrest height and this chair has that. What would make this perfect would be if the armrests could also swivel horizontally but it's not crucial just a nicety. All in all a pretty good chair that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
