Mesh seating too hard
on June 16, 2020
Posted by: Meh
Really liked the chair overall. Main dislike was the mesh seating. It just was too hard and my thigh/bum felt sore after sitting. I thought maybe my body wasn't accustomed to the seating and or it needed to break it a bit but after aprox 2hrs sitting on it. I no longer could take it even my lower back started to feel discomfort. I don't think this chair works well as a task chair. Sitting typing/working at computer i felt as if i had to lean forward vs sitting the natural position of the chair which tended to lean you back slightly. Which then made the neck rest useless. Tried sitting in that position leaning back so head can rest on the neck rest but the position felt to forced and not comfy. When reclining back or leaning back the chair was rather comfy with the neck rest but no way could use computer like that.

First and foremost....I found this to align with highlights and lowlights in other reviews. If you're petite this might well be the most decent deal you'll find for a very respectable office chair. It competes with a far more expensive class of features and comforts - if you fit in it right. I've had serious neck and back problems and can't use just any old chair to work in at home. If you don't need/want a headrest you have cheaper options for a basic midback task chair...that's where the back on this will land on taller people. I'm 5'4" 130 lbs wear a ladies 6-8 US sizes. I do not have any issues with the front of the chair pressing in to the back of my legs. It's not touching and it's comfortable. Having been more full bodied in the past I'd estimate a US ladies size 12+ would be a no go in terms of the seat because the plastic side edges under the mesh seat could be under you and that would be very uncomfortable. My feet touch the floor flat on the lowest height setting. I have it a set a bit higher and use an adjustable angle footrest. If you're shorter legged than me a footrest would be an easy fix to be comfortable with the height. Lumbar hits perfect didn't change it from the setting it shipped with. I like being able to lean back and stretch my back from time to time...just the back piece moving is awesome in my book. The headrest is comfortable and the width of the armrests is perfect...not too far and not too close. Why not five stars? The mesh seat isn't as comfy as I'd hoped. It's not padded obvs so I can't really complain. I have a kinda bony butt where it meets the seat and I can feel the tension in the mesh under me it's not awful but it's not fabulous. A bit less give than in more spendy mesh chairs. It gets me to stand and stretch occasionally throughout the day though so it's ok in its own way. I'd prefer a softer armrest. I can fix that with adding aftermarket pads. I think it'll still be ok height wise after and I'm not stressed about the look. Last minor bummer is the wheelbase. The images looked like the gray chair would be partially gray and not silver over the whole thing but it's a trick of the light. It's the same cheap looking chrome color. I think the chrome on the armrest stems and the base look cheap and aesthetically it's my least favorite thing about the chair. Don't pay extra for a colored chair unless you actually want a different color mesh. Will it last forever and be passed along to my grandchildren? Not likely. Will it outlast the 5 year warranty period and buy me a while before I have to debate about investing $$$ in a really good chair again? Yup. At least I expect so. Especially for needing a new desk chair sight unseen in a pandemic I'd call this one a win.

Nice comfortable chair. Doesn't go quite high enough

I particularly like the controls and the headrest in reclining mode. I do wish I could raise it a couple more inches.

Overall the best chair I’ve owned. It’s comfortable even after 8hrs of continuous use. The only thing I wish this chair could do was adjust the back to < 90 degrees.
