“I would say I'd give this chair a 4.5/5, but I still highly recommend it.
Initial impressions:
After deliberating on making a purchase for this chair for about a year, I finally pulled the trigger. The unboxing was super satisfying. When I first sat in the chair I was surprised by how firm it was. I thought it would bend a bit more in the seat.
Impressions after more use:
After sitting in it now for a few weeks, I see the magic of this chair. Being more firm causes me to sit more upright, fixing my posture. The chair has great flexibility when it comes to its rocking motion. This is the biggest thing for me. The chair isn't static, it truly does "move with you" as they say. The back of the chair gives your spine all of the support but allows you to move back and forth and side to side and it'll still cradle you. While it's not super comfy initially, you realize that its meant to cradle you and teach you to be more proactive. If you want a bit more comfort, I could always buy a small seat cushion... but I find this chair to be great for working and less for relaxing.
Cons:
• Initially not as comfy as I imagined based on the photos. Not every chair can/should be relaxing though!
• Price (it's expensive, but if you think about this chair as more of an investment than a frivolous purchase, you'll actually appreciate why it costs so much).
• The topper is a bit more challenging to put on than I would've liked. I was having a hard time finding online the best/most efficient way of installing the topper.
Pros:
• Even though it's rigid, you'll grow into the chairs comfort.
• Stylish
• Strong build
• Eco-friendly
• Varying colorway options for the topper (can make it feel like a new chair with a color change!)
• Incredible support for your spine
• I find I can stretch my back on this chair. A nice surprise!
• Corrects/refines posture
• Great for productivity
Final thoughts:
I think this chair is a really great investment. Every chair in your home should have a different function, and this serves the function I was looking for. A great chair that's both functional and stylish. You'll find this chair great for productivity. Even though the chair is made of plastic, it still feels really sturdy and well built. Even better that it's made from ECONYL™, Nylon 6 from reclaimed fishing nets and end of life carpet), and recycled post-industrial polypropylene. You'll feel great in this versatile chair and feel even better knowing that you're not contributing to wrecking the environment. Make the purchase! You won't regret it.”
“As a design lead, I wanted a well constructed, non-fussy minimalist design, and environmentally conscious chair, that had to also be comfortable and encourage good sitting habits, I certainly got all these bases covered.”
“I use the chairs at a game table in the basement. They don't get a lot of daily use. I've been working on a puzzle and the chair has been comfortable for sitting and leaning over the puzzle.”
