Staples Ergonomic Mesh Task Chair with Lumbar Support, Swivel, Gray | A comfortable everyday seating option for home or professional offices.

I bought this chair for long gaming sessions and late night web browsing, and it is an absolute lifesaver. Usually, after sitting for a few hours, I feel like I need to schedule an immediate appointment with a chiropractor. With this chair, I can sit for hours on end and my back feels perfectly fine afterward. No doctor visits required! The Highlights: The Cushion: Excellent padding. My booty has absolutely no complaints, even after a marathon session. Support: The back and lumbar support are fantastic. The headrest is decent too, though it functions more like a neck support for me which still gets the job done. The Build: Putting it together was shockingly simple. It took me less than an hour to build, and I didn't even lose my temper once. Aesthetics: The gray mesh looks sleek, modern, and keeps things cool so you don't overheat during intense moments. Verdict: This thing feels durable enough to last me for a very long time. You truly cannot beat the comfort and quality you get at this price point. If you want top-tier ergonomic support without spending a month's rent, buy this chair. Your spine will thank you.

I bought this to replace my old, el cheapo office chair that was falling apart and was causing me to slouch very badly. It was that type of office chair that was some cushion on top of plywood that you'd be feeling after 20 minutes. I was searching for a chair and at the time, needed something that was very affordable. I decided on this one because it was mesh and one of my friends with really bad back problems got it after doing lots of research, and he recommended it to me. When I got this chair in... oh my gosh.... you cannot possibly understand how life-changing it is to have a proper, solid office chair, especially if you're like me and spend hours each and every day at your desk, in your chair. I'm 5' 7" 120lbs, this chair supports me perfectly, headrest is at the perfect height. The mesh is great, very breathable and supportive. The modularity is great, you could strip the entire thing down to a stool if you so desired. I keep the arm rests off to make getting in and out of the chair easier, and sometimes I detach the headrest when playing VR while sitting. I understand they're forced to do this to fit the chair into a smaller box for cheaper shipping, but it's still appreciated. The build quality is... well, plastic, but pretty hard and solid plastic. The back shroud that covers the metal bracket that mounts the back rest to the seat is the weakest point and has cracked, but otherwise it's been great after 2 and a half years of continuous use. And let's be real, you can't complain about build quality at this price point. Overall, definitely get it if you can. Do not hold off on it and consider buying something else, yeah a new graphics card is cool and all but framerates don't matter if it hurts to sit in your chair. You'd think I'm joking, but my buddy I mentioned earlier messed up his back after years of construction work and a bad motorcycle accident. He has a triple screen 1440p 144hz setup with a 4090 but there's days where he wants to play and can't because of his back pains. So, seriously, do your research and consider ergonomics, and definitely consider this chair. Pic 1: Aug 2022 Pic 2: Oct 2023

Overall very good chair. It was a little hard to assemble on my own. Just awkward mostly. Some of the pieces like the seat and back do not line up easily for the screws to go in and the tool they provide, while practical and helpful- it takes incredible hand strength to maneuver that tool. My #1 tip is don't tighten any screws all the way until you have them all in. Tighten them 3/4 of the way so you have a little give to manipulate getting them all even and then tighten them down to 100% once you set it will set evenly. I broke out my power drill with the Allen wrench bit, and even at the highest tork setting, I was afraid I was going to ruin my drill. It was screaming. There's no way I personally could've done this on my own without a drill, but someone stronger maybe could've. It took maybe 45 minutes to assemble and the parts were very well organized and matched the instructions decently well. Now that I've used the chair for the first time it's miles above what I had. So I do think it's a good value at this price point, I'm just slightly disappointed it feels like it has a reclined back and there's no way to control the recline. Its just a space issue. Where my back meets the seat feels further away than I'd like. It could be my own anatomy and won't affect others the same. The lumbar support is very good but I'll probably still use a cushion sometimes behind my back so I don't feel like I'm slightly reclined. But it did feel good to lean back into the seat, lumbar, and headrest and type on the pc and I could feel my posture was supported so much better than my last chair. If I use my pillow I won't get that. And that's important if you're trying to alleviate poor posture. The adjustable neck support is super nice. The chair is definitely made well and I don't see any of this ever breaking. The construction is solid. All in all - I recommend. I think it could be a little better, but I think buying desk chairs is tricky. Sort of like running shoes. Wish they could fit you for a desk chair!!! I don't regret the purchase but see myself maybe finding something else in a couple years. I'll get good use out of it. Also, tips from my chiropractor --- make sure your desk chair has adjustable height, arms, lumbar and has a headrest to support your neck. Hope this helps.

Very good and sturdy chair that I have been using for years. Easy to assemble and can hold a lot of weight. Highly recommended!

Overall, a solid and comfortable office chair that does a good job for everyday use. The mesh design keeps it breathable, which is nice for long sitting sessions, and the lumbar support provides decent back support once it’s adjusted properly. It swivels smoothly and feels stable during regular use. It’s not the most premium chair out there, but it’s very functional for the price and works well for home office or general desk work. I’ve been happy with it overall and it’s made sitting for long periods more comfortable.

Huge fan of the staples hyken line. I spent 20 hours test riding chairs in stores and ended up with the full mesh one (held up for many many years, but the leg foam is starting to fall apart now). I liked that the full mesh one would help with butt sweat, but still felt comfortable enough for extreme gaming sessions lasting 24 hours or more. I still have the mesh one but I've gained weight over the years and the full mesh version is starting to feel a little narrow (I'm 6 feet tall, 225lbs btw). This time I bought the staples hyken XL and I love it too. Sitting down in this thing actually feels like taking a load off and is relaxing and super comfortable. I like that the XL has real springs like a mattress. I also like the mesh parts to help stay cool in the summer. The full mesh version is a fantastic value, but not suited for overweight people. The XL has room to breathe and has fantastic support. Highly recommend this product line.

I've had it for two years and I regret it. First year was fine. It was comfortable, easy to assemble, better than my last chair etc. But then the problems started. The mesh seat doesn't wear in evenly, so you're going to find yourself leaning to one side, which is a problem because the arm rests are attached by cheap bolts that will bend and loosen until they snap. The foam on the armrests is not made to take any pressure, leading to it cracking and splitting with sharp, pointy little edges that will poke and rub up against your arms. The lumbar support pad is just completely terrible. It naturally sits too low and either presses on your tailbone or half an inch above your tailbone. I find myself slouching a lot just so my lower back isn't pressed against it, because it slides out of place so easily. The headrest has a similar problem. If I press my back against the chair and sit rigid and straight with the headrest fully extended, it's almost comfortable. But like the lumbar support, the headrest naturally wants to slip into its lowest position. So you're constantly wrestling with these two adjustable parts against your back and neck, while trying to keep your elbows on some wobbly armrests. Worst part is that using this chair and trying to wrestle with its slouchy, uneven surface eventually led to some short-term sciatic pain through my back and legs. I was able to stretch and yoga and walk that off, but I've been looking for a new, better chair ever since.

Excellent chair! I'm 6'3 and this is very comfortable. I didn't expect it to be so wide but it fits me perfectly. Lumbar has been reported to be hard on the back but it hasn't hurt me at all.

J’adore ma chaise et le prix que j’ai payé! Mais je suis très déçue de la livraison! Je l’ai reçu 5 jours en retard.

good product, recommend it.

Excellente chaise, mais Intelcom est toujours la pire compagnie de livraison au Canada.

Headrest: FIrst of all, the headrest is counterproductive. I know this is an ergonomic chair and it's designed to make you sit straight but this feels like it might give me a hunch back. There's also no way I can sit on this for more than 15 mins. When I work, I need to be comfortable enough to work for hours and this just frustrates me while I work. Seat length Secondly, I read some reviews about this before purchasing but didn't think it was that big of a deal. But NOPE! I was dead ass wrong! The seat length is way too short!!!!!. It's uncomfortably to short and I'm 5'10. Not sure if it was built like that intentionally or it was just built for a 5'5 person. Everything else is fine, but these 2 reasons break the deal for me!!!! I sold it to someone else as a result

It's the same chair I tested in store at staples, and it's not as comfy because it's brand new. But once it's broken in. I expect it to be comfy. It's got an airy seat so if you get hot down there, there's ventilation. Depending on your height if you're +175cm/5'9 i don't recommend it, since you'll sit past the head rest which cannot be adjusted. It helps me sit up straight compared to my old gaming chair, and for my height it's comfy enough. Just need the seat to sag a little so the height goes down a bit. Assembling it took some work, but not impossible to do alone. I would recommend this chair if you're not taller than 175cm/5'9
