Very easy to put together. No tools needed the one tool used to turn the screws comes with the parts kit. The mesh keeps the body cool. My wife also really liked the chair. She liked the headrest. The chair can be adjusted just about everywhere which is really nice. The padding on the front part of the seat under the mesh keeps the legs comfortable on the leading edge of the seat.
Great chair but needs a bit of work for tall people

Like most recent reviewers I have been forced to work from home the past couple of months. My old desk chair was "okay" for a few hours but I started to get back pain and it got progressively worse. I decided to give the Hyken a try based on the reviews. It is great with the exception of the headrest which was way too low for my 6'4" /220 lbs frame. There's a mod online that involves reversing the bracket holding the headrest; that gave it another inch of height or so but still not enough. So I had to fabricate a custom bracket from stacked lexan sheets which finally brought the headrest in the right position. I wish Staples would include a bracket like this or sell one separately for a few bucks. That would make this product perfect.
