Good chair for price

I like it for the price. Was mostly straight forward to follow the instructions. For me personally I’m 6 1 and when I lean the chair back the headrest aligns with my head. When sitting upright it hits between my neck and shoulders. I wish I could move the headrest up higher. The work around is tilting it up but it still bumps the shoulder part and need to lean forward a bit. Even with that I would still buy because if it continues to bother me I can remove the headrest.
I really was excited and looking forward to using this chair but after almost 3wks of tryin to adjust the tension in the seat I finally gave up and started using my old memory foam coccyx cushion. The seat tension was just too firm and cut of circulation in my thighs. Also I'm plus size (2X) and the seat width is a little too snug for comfort. I will keep it but I'm glad that didn't pay full price for it!
Firm but comfy. GREAT back support for those of us that seem to be automatic slouchers at the desk. Love the ability to lock the lean back ability too. Neck rest fit perfectly on my frame.
Highly recommend. I've been working from home but could not see spending $1200 on a new Aeron. Since 2001 every office I worked in had Aeron chairs. This Hyken chair is not as excellent as Aeron but is VERY GOOD. No complaints about the back which is very comfortable and the lumbar support fits me perfectly. The seat is not as good as Aeron. On an Aeron you don't feel like the mesh sinks in when you sit on it but this Hyken does feel like the mesh ever so slightly sinks when you sit. I weigh 130 lbs. The seat has a foam bolster under the mesh where the front curves downward and given that the mesh sinks in a bit the bolster feels prominent as the back of your thighs go from the (slightly) sunken mesh then up and over the bolster. But for the price I accept this and am 90% happy with the chair. After a few weeks I've stopped noticing the bolster and it doesn't bug me anymore. I'm 5' 4" and the head rest is perfect position for me. Taller ppl might want to leave off the headrest.
Love this chair with all the adjustments on it you can make it very comfortable for each person..the headrest is awesome if you want to lean back & maybe watch TV...very happy !
