Review on Everprof EP-705 computer chair for head, upholstery: textile, color: black by Edyta Waldzik ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Average purchase, there is something to complain about.

The armrests are part of the supporting structure, you can remove one at your own peril and risk, but both are in no way. Although they are a good fit for me, they might be too big for someone of average height (175). While several authors experienced difficulties during assembly, I encountered none. True, it's not easy to screw the back without 3rd hands, but nothing is impossible if you put your mind to it. The casing does not have any pre-existing holes, but I don't see any reason why they couldn't be made with a sharp knife. The mesh lining is a blessing since it prevents the cuts from spreading. I read a review that said the back cloth tore when the bolts were tightened from below. The kit's two washers are the answer to this predicament.

Pros
  • The low cost is perhaps the biggest perk (I took it for 8500). There is a tough yet still rubber layer on the rollers. There is hope in the metal cross. The back is breathable and comfortable. With a height of 186, I personally lack a couple of centimeters of height, but not critical, I fixed it by putting a small towel under the pillow.
Cons
  • The chair has a small amount of diagonal play in the horizontal plane. I don't know if this is the usual or not, as I haven't sat in any other chairs, but the rocking mechanism is partially blocked rather than entirely. It started making noise after a week or two. Although it is not explicitly stated in the instructions, the washers should be placed below the point at where the backrest is linked to the seat. Even though I weigh slightly less than 70kg, the seat filling shrank dramatically after about 3 weeks of regular use. Fixed by inserting a thin cushion. Yet, this is a common issue with low-cost seating options. There's a clicking sound whenever I rock back and forth in my chair. After doing some research, I learned that the gas lift rod is probably too small in diameter and that there is no spacer to make up the difference. The fix for this issue has not yet reached human hands. A noticeable reaction manifested itself in a diagonal direction after 4 months.
