Good product, not disappointed.

After sitting on duty in a variety of chairs, from very cheap to very expensive, I wanted a chair with a mesh and adjustable armrests for working from home, plus my back began to put forward an ultimatum about comfort. The choice of such models in the mid-budget segment was not very large.

If you have the opportunity to personally choose and take a used armchair of foreign manufacturers in good condition for a reasonable price - take it, do not think. If this is not possible, then this chair, after a little adjustment, actually approaches in terms of convenience, even with all the "features". Provided that nothing falls apart, it works out its price.

Pros

Ergonomics. I have been using it for a month, my back has ceased to get tired after a working day from the first day of use. Lots of adjustments to make it perfect for you. In this modification, they switched from a weak point - fastening the back by welding - to a reliable fastening with screws. You can adjust the headrest while sitting, finally, because you don’t need keys to adjust. Plus to the manufacturer for improving the model. The wheels are soft, do not scratch the parquet board, do not leave marks. Cast cross for wheels. The seat moves horizontally. The chair is so heavy that even with wheel chocks it can be transported under its own weight (but not on carpet). Assembly is relatively easy if you know the "features" (see below).

Cons

Not without the gloomy Hong Kong genius. - The manual from the old modification comes with an insert where not all new features are described. - The seat arrived in a "folded" state and in order to unfold it, inhuman efforts had to be applied (despite the fact that the screws on the frame cannot be turned, they are for adjusting the tension). - The back support in the new model is something attached with Velcro . the instructions do not describe how to attach it. - You can’t look at all the welding points without a mean tear - fortunately, they are in inconspicuous places. Flash wherever there might be flash (again. in inconspicuous places). Due to the fact that they switched to the screw fastening of the back, and the details remained generally the same, the seat frame began to rest against these same screws and it was impossible to install it in the most "farthest/vertical" position horizontally. There are 5 horizontal positions in total and, fortunately, 2 is more convenient for me. The coating on the handles does not inspire confidence in me. But the same coating begins to peel off on much more expensive chairs after several years of operation, so plus / minus. For legs it is more convenient to have some kind of small stand (even with a height of 180 cm).
