Very supportive but head rest more of a neck rest

Pros: I really enjoy the sturdiness and quality of this chair. It really supports the arch of your back but doesn’t sacrifice comfort. It will last me some time and I do recommend it to others! Cons: My only frustration was that the headrest couldn’t go any higher. I’m short (5’1”) but even at the highest level the headrest was hitting more of my neck than the back of my head. You can always lean back to take a break and rest your head that way which is what I’ve been doing but I was hoping for something that was higher.
I'm 5'3 petite female. I sit for 6-8 hours a day in my home office this is a very sturdy task chair designed for extended sitting. The key to finding the best chair is to make sure you get a chair with a rating for what you utilize it for. The mesh is supportive both on the butt and thighs and back. The seat bottom hits at a nice area behind my knees for a shorter petite person a lot of my other chairs had too large of a chair bottom and my knees were not supported. The lumbar support helps my lower back the head rest is nice because it has 3 tilt options. the arms also have adjustability at 3 different levels. The chair high has a nice range to move it up and down. It also has a tension feature that allows you to be able to lean back or keep the chair from leaning back (like rocking back n forth). I personally keep the tension tight so it doesn't lean back n forth to have good posture. All and all great chair for the price for extended sitting.
The chair seemed to be very sturdy and well made. I think however that it was not for me or my size. I am tall -5'10"- and have a long torso and legs. The head rest didn't hit me in the right place nor did the seat fit my legs. It seemed comfortable at first; however after sitting for longer periods of time (20 minutes plus) it began to be very uncomfortable. My legs hips glutes and back all started hurting. I have a coworker who loves her Hyken Mesh Task chair; however she is also about 6 inches or more shorter than I am. I will be returning the chair. It is just not for me.
The warranty alone speaks for itself. But the chair is AMAZINGLY comfortable. No more cushions no more lumbar support no more hot leather chair. I finally found the perfect home office chair.
I love this chair. Bought it to use with my sewing machine table. Perfect height very comfortable. Great lumbar support and head rest. Would recommend to anyone that needs a comfortable chair.
