Was waiting for you to review this one, though I just made an order before the video. Glad that I did not make a mistake. One missed opportunity in the video though, was to compare fabric vs mesh because no one has done that and personally I was very curious about the differences. Although I chose mesh, I'd still be interesting to see the comparison. Is the hardness the same etc.

This was the first slightly more critical review I've found, most others have mostly praised it, although all have commented on virtually the same issues (loose arm rests). This is still my top contender right now, coming from a old DX Racer, without doubling the price and going for a truly ergonomic specialty office chair.

This chair is totally off, and i actually refunded it. Armrest were slidy, lumbar support not working (resetting back to default position when i apply some force with my back) some smudges and the sit overall was uncomfortable due to shortness, hard edges that can't make me spread my legs enough and overall costruction being meh. I do actually prefer my noblechair hero that i got in 2020, actually thinking that i'm going to buy that chair again. Don't mistake me: it's a decent chair overall (aside for that defections), but totally outside the 500 bucks range. More like 250/300.

love this chair, had it for about 3 weeks and prefer it over the haworth soji, ikea markus and ergohuman elite 2 (only chairs I've used). seat is actually great for me, gives consistent support over long hours and doesn't cause any pain or discomfort at all personally. headrest and backrest are great, lumbar support is good, not great, but definitely does the job, and the adjustments are also plenty good. couldn't recommend it enough especially as a direct upgrade from the Ikea markus which was my previous primary chair.

It's possible for this chair to be $549 dollars in 2024 because Fractal isn't (yet) capitalizing on our comfort!!! Chair prices are astronomically high for what you get these days, it's ridiculous. Nice to see that at least their first attempt at an ergonomic chair is reasonable.

Herman Miller doesn't have a bucket seat gaming chair. The Razer Fujin is not a bucket seat.

@Zetraxes There are barely any proper ergonomic gaming chairs on the market, especially ones that are actually worth recommending. The typical gaming chair is still a bucket seat design, like the new Iskur v2, hence why Ryan mentioned that. The Logitech Embody is still an ergonomic office chair tbh, it's just been marketed as a high end gaming chair, since it does a far better job than any chair from a gaming company.
