Chair robbery.

Honestly was a big leather advocate being luxury cars and all but actually this fabric is super easy to clean and is tightly woven, actually holds ur butt quite nicely u don’t scoot around like on leather which is surprisingly helpful for my back pain. The ferns adjustments over the zody is elite. I

H2 pro hinomi or Libernovo Omni

I tried both while chair shopping and strongly preferred the Hinomi H2, but I'm on the tall side (6'2"), and Libernovo is known to be a poor fit for most tall folks. If you're in the US, I would recommend trying out the Hyken Pro at Staples to see if you like the lower back hump common to both the H

Used office chair selection

That’s not the only thing going for them, the Steelcase leap for instance has sticky recline, a tilt limiter and quite frankly in every facet is better than say a Hyken (better arms, lumbar support, tilt limiter, flexible back). You can genuinely feel the difference in a leap, it’s truly a better si

Is spending more on a chair actually worth it?

I thought about this for a while now. I’ve had my staples hyken for over 5 years now and it’s taken its toll on me. I’m now feeling lack of lumbar support and I’m constantly moving because Im uncomfortable. The pain has been radiating from my lower back down to my thigh, hips, pelvis, and even groin

Office chair suggestions if I find chairs like these VERY comfortable?

My body hurt during the pandemic and after a more expensive trial and error, I thought back to how I like chairs in my youth and aimed for basic and I also don’t like huge chairs because I’m not super tall. I got this chair and love it. The only issues are that I’m 5’3” and use a foot stool and I ro

Ergonomics be damned, are there any good chairs with padded headrests?

Everyone's body is so different. I am short 5'4" and I have jointI tried: ErgoHuman mesh and the leather chairs did not work for me. . Ended up getting way more neck pain from that chair. The neck support wasn't really a support, and I felt like the lumbar, even though adjustable fully made it feel

Anthros V1 vs V2 Long-Term Review (17 months & 6 months)

Hey there, thanks for doing this review. I am most focused on no glute or hamstring pain. I have an overly tight pelvic floor from stress, ptsd, and from long periods of sitting for work. I've tried a lot of chairs over the years. I'm 5'11, 145 lbs or so. I used to get back pain from a Staples Hyken

Decisions

We bought my husband a Hyken about 2 years ago. He went to Staples and tried it on and we brought it home. He now hates it. He is tall, and probably has hip issues and complains about the uncomfortable seat. My much loved chair of ancient vintage needs to replaced, and the chair I'm going to be orde

Do ergo chairs do more harm than good?

I sit in a staples hyken at home and leap v2 at the office and I have all sorts of pains. My wife sits at the dining table on some 10 year old cheapo dining chairs from Wayfair and she has no problems. I also had a friend who suffered chronic neck pain from an injury and he also could only stand tho

I've had the Steelcase Leap for 4 years and hate it. What now?

Not really. I now mainly use the Staples Hyken without the headrest and with an inflatable lumbar pillow. I hate the arm rests though. It's okay but I get up and move around a lot. Sometimes I use Leap with the inflatable pillow but still find it uncomfortable. I've looked at a lot of chairs online
