This is a very comfortable cool ergonically sound chair. It moves with me and adjusts for more chair sitting than I wish was needed. This is my second Hyken chair. I liked the red one in my office so well that I purchased a grey one for my home office. Assembly was easy for this 78 year old woman on both chairs. The included Allen wrench (for tightening screws) was the only tool needed. I like the way that it moves freely with my natural body movement rather than setting barriers and limits.
The seat is very hard and uncomfortable. My back and bottom are hurting after spending about 8-9 hour days working with this chair. That is with standing for a few minutes every hour at least and stepping away for an hour lunch every day. I have been very disappointed by the comfort level of this chair.
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.
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.
For the price this is probably the best mesh chair one can buy. My only warning is to the tall folk out there: the headrest probably won't work well for you. I'm 6'3" and even when I adjust it to the highest setting my upper back is pushing into it too much. I'll probably just remove the headrest at some point
