SIHOO M18 Ergonomic Office Chair, Mesh Back Desk Chair with Headrest

I've been looking for a new chair to replace a cheap $30 chair i bought off of Amazon last year that had been killing my back and shoulders. I wanted something in the $150-$200 range and settled on the M18. Shipping was a fast 3 days with Prime and the box arrived in great condition. All parts were separately wrapped or in their own boxes. Came with all hardware and nothing was missing. Assembly took me a little longer then normal because i have rotator cuff injury in my left shoulder so that arm is mostly useless. The most difficult part for me was attaching the wheels to the base. Other then that it was simple. Once the chair was assembled i sat in it for the first time and started making my adjustments with the recline feature, armrest level along with the headrest. Next i reached around for the lumbar support knob and tried to adjust it but with my bad shoulder i decided to just get out of the seat and turn it around and adjust it with both hands. After spinning the chair a round to get at the lumbar knob i noticed a large crack in the plastic in the middle of the back of the lumbar plastic piece. I had not made any lumbar adjustments yet so i assumed this is how i received it. The lumbar support comes preinstalled to the backrest so it either was damaged before or during the shipping process. Either way it was damaged before being delivered to me. The lumbar support still functioned properly but it was still broken. I decided to contact Sihoo's customer support that came along with the installation instructions regarding the damaged lumbar piece. I received a reply the next day and after sending them some more info about my order and a couple pics they shipped me a replacement part which took a week to arrive. I swapped out the damaged part and after owning the chair for a week so far i am really happy with my purchase. Im about 5'10 180lbs. At its highest height level my feet reach the ground comfortably flat footed. The backrest fully covers my back and the headrest adjusts very well to sit on the back of my lower head/upper neck. The armrests only go up and down....not forward and back or tilt inwards. This is fine for me as they are grooved to fit your forearm while sitting at your desk/keyboard. The armrests are also a soft cushioned rubber material...not a hard plastic. The mesh of the backrest and headrest are good material and seem well made. The seat is very wide and the cushioning is firm which i prefer. Usually more firm cushioning seems to last longer and hold its form. The base of the chair is VERY sturdy and made of all metal. My chair is on carpet and holds its position very well. As far as recline goes you can set it to recline all the way back, half way or lock the chair in the upright position. You can also adjust the resistance on the reclining feature. So that being said im very happy with my purchase. It arrived with a slight flaw which the company corrected in a fast manor and was very polite in their customer support. I personally don't have a lot of experience with many office chairs and have never used a high end chair($500-$1000+) chair before to make any comparisons. All my chairs for the most part have been from local stores like Staples or Office Depot. Id recommend this over anything they carry in this price range....and i went and looked at their products before buying this chair as well.

While this is not THE most comfortable chair, let's face it - if you sit for long periods, what chair IS? I bought this chair because I'm making a career change. I've returned to school and spend hours at my desk. At the age of 50, sitting for a long time with my nose pointed toward a book can be hard on the seat, back and neck. I looked at all kinds of office chairs and settled on this one, primarily because it was on sale, was in my budget and so I clicked the "Add to cart" button and hoped for the best. It was delivered, and I had to work that evening, and when I got home my 17-year-old son had assembled it. My theory on the simplicity of assembly can be deduced from that sentence above. He didn't have any extra parts left over and the chair was complete! I sat down. I leaned back. I shifted the lever that keeps the chair in an upright position and sat straight up. Okay! I can live with this. It has been almost two full months of using this chair and I have no problems. Pros: easy to assemble sufficient comfort level - adequate cushion in the seat can be leaned back or pop the lever in to stay straight up rollers on bottom headrest is adjustable affordable easy to clean arm-rests can be moved up or down height adjustment is self-explanatory - you'll figure it out the "lumbar" support is actually comfortable - it's "there" if you back up to it but if you scoot forward just a bit, you won't feel it if you don't want to sit like that Overall this seems like a chair that's going to last me for a few years, at least, and not fall apart. In the context of size, I'm not a small or extra larger person. I'm an average middle-aged woman with meat on the bones. The seat is plenty big enough. I would recommend this chair as an upgrade to the hand-me-down office chair that just isn't comfortable any longer.

I bought this during Prime Days and got a good deal. I am not an expert on chairs, but I've bought about six office chairs in the last decade. These are good chairs. I would buy again. Pros: - reasonable price - comfortable for both my self and my wife - seat is large, good thigh support, and soft - adjustable arm rests, lumbar supports, head rest, and tilt stiffness - nice! - somewhat easy to assemble - the screws and parts are in a blister pack with a couple extra parts Cons: - rollers do not roll as easy as some chairs Assembly notes: - as a retired tech writer, I'll give the Assembly Guide a 70% - it's all illustrations and the illustrations are not large enough - the parts labels don't always match the assembly instructions - don't forget the washers - it's hard to see in the illustrations, but most bolts use them - the casters are difficult to install into the bottom frame - use a light coat of three-in-one oil on the caster stems and they will go in easily - it is difficult to attach the chair back to the seat - put both parts on the ground and concentrate on getting one bolt in, the others will be easy to get in

My first impression wasn’t great because I didn’t realize the recline was locked. Once I unlocked it and adjusted the headrest, it was a completely different chair. The mesh feels supportive, the lumbar support is comfortable, and I like that the recline tension is adjustable so I can choose between more support or a more relaxed lean. The headrest is also much more adjustable than I initially realized. I especially like that I can sit upright for work and then lean back comfortably while reading or planning between tasks. The casters have a little more resistance than my previous chair, but I’ve actually come to appreciate that because the chair stays put instead of rolling away every time I lean back. It’s not quite on the level of my old Herman Miller, but considering the price difference, it’s an excellent value. If you’re coming from a basic office chair, take a few minutes to learn the adjustments before judging it, you may end up loving it like I did.

i am 6ft 6 325lbs. this s a great chair the price makes it even better. the only flaw i have with this chair, and only because my height is above the waste and not in my legs. (my wife says i am all torso). even at its highest point the head rest barley clears my shoulders. i do have a seat cushion but i have a seat cushion i use for every seat i sit in. just because i know my seat cushion is clean and comfortable.. if you get up every 2 hrs. to stretch you will not need a seat cushion. i bought the cushion for a Ryanair flight and figure i might as well use the darn thing since i bought it. LOL. i sit in this chair at least 30 hours a week and have had no pain anywhere in my back, bum or anywhere. very good chair. for reference i switched over from a secret labs chair and the seat was pretty firm. a lot firmer that the SIHOO. there is absolutely nothing wrong with secret labs chairs but why should i spend close to 700 on chair for someone of my size when i can get a chair just as good for under 200?

I have used the chair for about 3 days at my desk job so far, and it has proven comfortable and pretty easy to adjust as needed. Assembly went smoothly, though I would recommend having a second person to hold the back of the chair in place when attaching it to the base. The included hex key had an ergonomic handle that made getting leverage easy. The chair feels sturdy, and the back support feels good to me.

I've been using this chair for 12+ hours a day for the last 5 or 6 months and so far it is much better than my last chair I bought at Staples with a few problems. First, overall the chair is still comfortable when set properly, the cushion on the bottom is a little worn out but is still comfortable and I find the backrest comfortable except for the lumbar support which has very little cushioning and feels like a plastic brick being pushed into my back, however I find that I can keep it mostly out of the way most of the time and it isn't noticeable when I carry most of my weight on my upper back area while reclining. The reclining angle is super comfortable and the mesh on the back is not noticeably worn out. I like the headrest which is made of a cushioned mesh, its not better than a pillow but it's very comfortable to be able to rest your head in a chair you are going to sit in for long hours and gives good support. The arm rests don't feel amazing, they have a very stiff plasticky cushion feeling that I'm not much a fan of in terms of pure comfort but they get the job done as I mostly only rest my elbows on them when typing. The arm rest adjustment has a pretty good height range and I keep them at the highest settings and set as close to the chair as possible. While the chair may be comfortable, I have had some quality issues that bring down my opinion of the chair. First, my right arm rest does not go as high as my left arm rest and I have to set the left one down two positions to match the right one Second, the back rest locking for the upright position is broken but I can rarely get it to work as long as I don't put much weight on the back. I would imagine that most people would want to lock the chair upright as opposed to the other positions. Third, the 3 screws holding in the backrest untighten themselves over time, causing the backrest to move to its furthest back position and rock left or right if I lean on either side. When I tighten them again they will usually last about 1-2 weeks before becoming mostly loose again. There is no danger of the screws completely falling out though, just losing their tightness Lastly, I'm not sure how stable or secure the wood panel at the bottom of the seat that everything attaches to is strong enough, I used to have my armrests adjusted out further from the center but when I would lift up on my arms to adjust my seating position I would occasionally hear a sound of the wood stressing under the torque from the armrests. since I moved both armrests as close to the center as I can this has not happened; I would like them a little bit wider but I don't want to risk breaking the chair over it. Also, one of the factory-installed screws in the bottom seat panel fell out and wont stay back in but I haven't noticed any problems other than the risk of stepping on a screw caused by it While this is likely the most comfortable chair I've ever sat in, I have to give it 3 stars for the uncomfortable lumbar support and the quality control issues. If the QC issues were fixed I could easily give this chair a 4 star review

I purchased the SIHOO M18 Ergonomic Chair a few years ago and have really enjoyed it. It’s very comfortable and offers multiple adjustments, whether you want to recline and relax or sit upright for work. The back support is also excellent, and I haven’t had any issues with the chair at all. You can easily tell it’s high quality from the build and appearance—no creaks or noises whatsoever. I highly recommend this chair to anyone in the market for a new office chair.

Sono molto soddisfatto dell'acquisto. La sedia è di ottima qualità, solida, comoda e rifinita molto bene. Il montaggio è stato semplice e il prodotto corrisponde perfettamente alla descrizione. Un plauso particolare va anche al servizio clienti: sono stati estremamente disponibili, rapidi nelle risposte e molto professionali nel risolvere ogni dubbio. È raro trovare un'assistenza così attenta al cliente. Consiglio vivamente sia la sedia che questo venditore. Acquisto assolutamente positivo!

I am giving 4 star because the height is not high enough for me.

Before buying this I hade a racing style gaming chair which are awful and this feels much better for my lower back, the adjustable back and head rest are a big hard tho but you get used to it

Semplice e utile! Dopo aver provato un paio mi sono trovato bene con questa! C’è l’ho da un anno e non ho avuto problemi. Non é una top di gamma ma molto robusta e comoda.

Delivered on time, easy to assemble and very comfortable
