Comfortable but not in the tush

With many of us working from home I had to find a chair that I can sit in for long periods of time. My back and neck were in major pain. I went with this chair and it did help my back and neck tremendously however the problem then became my tush. I returned it after a week and got a game chair that has a tilting back. Same price and very comfortable. I just don’t like that it looks like a game chair rather than a desk chair. But comfort before beauty in this case.
Generally a pretty good chair. I have an Aeron at work and this is maybe 2/3 the quality for 1/4 the price. Good for covid work at home. The headrest though digs into my neck it adjusts but even at the highest setting. I have had to take it off. Otherwise decent time will tell. If I'd paid full price I would've rated it lower but at the sale price with a coupon it was a fairly good deal.
This chair is so comfortable! I’m a high school teacher so I’m not used to sitting behind a desk all day. Since the school closures have forced us all to teach remotely I’m spending 10+ hours a day in front of my computer. Now that I have a seat that is ergonomically correct I can sit for long periods of time with out pain and discomfort! Definitely worth the price.
Like everyone else I suddenly found myself working from home. I've never used my normal desk chair for more than a couple of hours at a time and it was absolutely killing my back after suddenly needing to use it 8 hours a day 5 days a week. I got the Hyken chair yesterday and it was an immediate improvement. I'm not sure if I like the lumbar support yet (it feels a bit stiff-but it could need broken in/I need to used to it) but I'd definitely recommend this chair.
Materials and assembly quality are great. Mesh feels like it will last for a while. Ergonomics are great IF you're under 6'2 - 6'3 if not then you'll have to remove the headrest because it cannot be adjusted by height only tilted. Still gave it 4 start because everything else was good value.
Bought this chair because of its excellent reviews. However the headrest isn't really adjustable. You can only pull it up by a couple inches which is still too low for me. It is pushing against my shoulder. Other than that it is a very comfortable chair.
