Do you have horrible posture? Have you given in to it and just need a comfy chair? This is for you.
I have spent so much money on Extremely Fancy, Very Ergonomic Chairs with the hopes that they would be so comfortable that i would sit properly in them. But the truth is, dear reader, I am old and set in my ways. When concentrating, I will invariably discover that I have curled up, one leg tucked under me and one knee at my chin, like im at a starting block. Except im not. Im two feet off the ground in an uncomfortable chair, staring at a spreadsheet and thinking, Math Is Hard (holla! to 1980s Barbie marketing flops). So I have decided to embrace this personal flaw and look for chairs that accommodate how I sit vs. the other way around.
THIS CHAIR does not try to make me something Im not. No, it gives me a nice wide, flat seat that doesnt curve up and end in a hard plastic edge (and therefore cut off circulation to my shins that are resting on it). The arms flip up and out of the way, but even when they are in position they dont seem to obstruct my efforts at chair yoga. I think my favorite part is that when i am all curled up like a pretzel, the back support is actually aming.
I thought the chair would be squashier, but honestly, the foam (so far) is just the right amount of supportive. I often work extremely long days without really moving from my desk, and I need a chair that is more like a hug than a drill sergeant.
The only thing i would change is to have the back just a weeeee bit higher so i could rest my head on it. But i have a long torso so this is basically a problem with Every Chair. And for 250 or whatever, fine.
I thought the fabric would be like a low/pile velvet, its actually like a kind of tweedy microfiber. Still very soft.
The assembly was just ANNOYING. Im very comfortable assembling things and while it was simple, it was AWKWARD because you have to hold the back in place with one hand while trying to find the holes for the screws with the other my husband offered to help me (after i finished, eh hem) and honestly, it would be easier to have a second set of hands for that step.
The seller was experiencing some shipping delays due to covid slowdowns, etc., and was very communicative, which I appreciated.
All in all, totally worth the money. Its not squeaky or wobbly as some reviewers have mentioned, but if that changes Ill update. Overpriced a bit.
