Hbada Ergonomic Office Chair - Adjustable Mesh Computer Desk Chair with Lumbar Support & Flip-Up Arms, Black - Perfect for Home Office, Gaming & Workspaces

** 6 month review at bottom **Have had the chair for a week so far with 8+ hour uses each day. Not the best but not the worse chair I’ve had. Overall, I like the chair. Can’t complain too much at this price point. I was more concerned that the materials will feel cheap, like the plastic but it’s pretty sturdy. It’s decently comfortable if you sit properly.-=-=-=-=-=-=-Here is an in-depth review:— Seat cushion (2/5 stars):The seat cushion isn’t great — unless you sit properly at all times, any weird sitting position will be uncomfortable (i.e if you sit on your legs). If you happen to seat near the middle or front end of the chair and you usually have tailbone pain, you’ll likely get it with this chair. After receiving the chair, within an hour of use, the foam is already dented and does not fully return to its original form. After a few days, I can feel the unevenness on the seat, even after several hours of not using it. Pretty sure it’s permanent now. I’ve purchased a seat cushion to combat this issue. For comparison, I’m 150lb, 5’10”. The seat cushion is about 1.5" thick, you can easily feel the base plate.— Arms (4/5 stars):It was solid and worked perfectly when I first used it. However, due to the arm mechanism, the nut holding the arm in place can get loose if you move the arm up and down often. I found this happen more with one side than the other. Took the arm off and tighten the nut but that only fixed the issue temporarily. After moving the arm a few times, the nut got loose again causing the arm to just fall down and wobble.IF YOU ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE — here’s a fix I've found to worked for me. Go to your local hardware store and find a pack of flat washers and locking washers (washers with uneven/bent ends). The flat washer should be no larger than 7/8” (outer diameter). Internal diameter of the washer should be 3/8”. Remove the arm from the chair and remove the nut. Keep the existing flat washer in place and place a locking washer on top and a new flat washer after. Place the nut back and hand tighten snug. The order should be Flat Washer > Locking Washer > Flat Washer > Hex Nut on the arm’s through-bolt. I’m able to move the arm repeatedly now without it ever getting loose or wobbly.The manufacturer is however aware of this issue and is fixing it as far as I know. So please contact them if you are having this issue if you find that my fix isn’t working.Once my issue was fixed, I’ve find that the arm is pretty solid. The mechanism that allows the arm to rotate is limited by the plastic used to make the chair (if you disassemble the arm, you’ll see what I mean). The plastic is pretty solid, but I wouldn’t put my entire weight on the arm. Who knows, maybe it’s capable of supporting it but I don’t want to risk it.— Mesh Back / Lumbar Support (4/5 stars):There’s not much to complain about for me. It’s comfortable when you have your back against it. But I didn’t notice anything that stood out to me. The lumbar support is pretty non-existent, I don’t even feel it. So if you really need lumbar support, this might not be the best chair for you.— Hydraulic Cylinder (5/5 stars):So far (within a week of use), I haven’t had any issue with it. The chair will very slightly compress when you sit on it, but nothing significant. But I know that I’ll likely won’t see any issue until later down the line. So I’ll try to update this after more use.— Customer Support (5/5 stars):Prior to fixing the arm myself, I contacted them about it and they were pretty fast at responding (within a few hours). Pretty professional and was diligent in making sure my issue was resolved by offering a couple of solutions. So if you do happen to have any issue with your chair, I wouldn’t hesitate contacting them to see how they will help.Would I recommend this or purchase it again at this price point ($139.99)? Yes.________________________6 Month Review (over 1000 hrs of use):With the arm fixed I proposed above, it’s been flawless. No issues with it at all, no wiggle and not lose. That was one the biggest things I feared. Most chairs I bought, it ended up wiggling a lot after a while and couldn’t hold itself up anymore. So glad this one hasn’t had this issue yet.Hydraulic cylinder still works great. No squeaks either when reclining back and forth or swiveling.Still happy with this chair! Would still recommend it.________________________8 Month Update:Typical usage. Chair is starting to creek and make a bit of noise when you rock back and forth. The back mesh is a bit loose now but nothing too bad. Hydraulics still performing as before.I got this chair in Feb 2021 when I started working from home. I have not had any issues with the chair sinking or making any noises. I work 8 hours a day and I don’t have any issues with my back or anything after a full day. The seat cushion is starting to smoosh a bit, can definitely tell where I sit and it’s getting the fuzzies like a sweater would but it’s still just fine for me. It’s not a gaming chair and it’s not going to change your life but if you need a decent office chair I’d recommend it, in fact I just sent the link to a new coworker.I have this a little over a year now. 2 of the five wheels have broken and the cushion in the seat flatten pretty quickly. Such a shame because I did love it when I first got it. I don't expect it to last a super long time for the price but one the wheels broke a few months ago second one broke yesterday..The chair was easy to assemble by myself (and I'm over 60). Only criticism of the directions are the small pictures. Excellent assembly video included by Hbada in the gallery of chair images. You could probably assemble just based on the video alone. Took me less than an hour and i stopped to look up the video which ate some time. All pieces were well packaged and arrived in good condition.As others have mentioned lumbar support isn't amazing (but I also didn't pay $500-$1,000 for the chair!)I like the rocking and lock feature. Raise/lower mechanism is working well. Arms fold up out of the way nicely and have good padding for when in the lowered position. I may put a cloth cover to protect the light grey cushion but I love the look of the white/grey chair.AMAZING!!! This chair is great, after using it for a while now the first thing I noticed was my lower back had hurt less when I got up from the chair after a long gaming session. That alone has made this product more than awesome for me, I feel my posture has improved as well. Overall 10/10 simple chair with no bells and whistles, and does the job comfortably!This chair is great and I love that I can lift up the arms - perfect for my small working space. However, I've only had this chair for 6 months and recently it's starting sinking and not staying at the height I set it at. That can get pretty annoying. The company have an extended warranty so I'm going to contact them to see if they can send a replacement cylinder.I originally purchased this chair because I was working from home (now mainly use it for when I’m gaming or working on my pc) and after a couple of years of having it and using it daily (8+ hours a day) I have a few takeaways. Overall, this chair is not very comfortable - the cushion started wearing down after a couple weeks of use, and to be honest I never noticed any difference with any of the adjustments for back support. The chair was easy to put together, I’m 5’1 and weigh about 110 lbs, I’m not very strong and it was easy for me to do alone which was a plus. The chair overall is sturdy and the cushions of the armrests have stayed in tact and fine over the past couple of years, however I don’t use them much at all. For the most part I didn’t have any issues with the chair rising up and lowering down, recently I wasn’t able to lower it back down, but that isn’t really a problem for me since I’m short and need it on the highest level anyway. Just something to keep in mind. The wheels are nice and it’s easy to move around. I added two seat cushions to the chair - a gel one and then just a soft one on top that also helps my back and it made the chair much more comfortable but even with that it’s only comfortable for about 2 hours before my legs start to hurt and about 4 for my back. The chair also isn’t very spacious, it’s pretty compact. It’s a decent chair if you’re not going to use it for long periods of time and if you add a seat cushion, it looks really nice and aesthetic but there are definitely better quality chairs out there.Equilibrio entre calidad/precio con extra a favor por los materiales que son resistentes y de calidad superior.Consideremos que por el precio no es una Herman Miller pero voy a enunciar sus aciertos.* Los descansabrazos son abatibles eso te da una enorme libertad de movimiento, puedes cruzar los pies mientras trabajas ja.* El respaldo de malla es realmente cómodo, si eres una persona de baja estatura, no tiene caso que compres sillas altas con soporte en el cuello o nuca, terminas encorvado porque no es tu talla, entonces lo que para una persona de 170/180 de alto puede venirle bien, para una persona como yo de 160 o más bajitas ya no se siente taaan cómodo (es mi experiencia con las sillas Gammer que termino siempre jorobada ajaja) en resumen esta silla es cómoda también para personas de talla baja.* El asiento es amplio, y el acolchado es suficiente.a mejorar:* Su respaldo no bascula, es decir, no se hace hacia atrás para un breve descanso, el respaldo permanece recto y no se inclina en absoluto.* el soporte lumbar es muy somero, casi no se siente, sin embargo el diseño del respaldo y la adaptabilidad de la malla ayudan mucho a la espalda. Recomiendo que si tienes problemas lumbares o de espalda inviertas almenos unos 6 mil pesos en una silla con certificado de ergonomía y que además sea de tu talla un detalle importantísimo para temas de ergonomía.* El cojín del asiento es cómodo pero no es una almohada esponjosa, si tienes problemas de circulación o piernas cansadas recomiendo ponerla en el nivel más bajo de altura para que tus piernas no sientan tanta presión (al margen de la silla que elijas).* no se puede controlar la altura de los descansabrazos, aunque como son abatibles los puedes hacer ligeramente hacia arriba para darles altura.Recibí la silla bastante rápido. Para montarla no tuve ningún inconveniente fue en menos de 30 minutos y basta con un desarmador.En cuanto al uso la he sentido bien y llevo casi dos meses usándola. No acostumbro estar de corrido 8 hrs pero si he estado unas 4 hrs seguidas y se empieza a notar un poco el cansancio en el trasero ya que no tiene tanto relleno para las asentaderas. En cuanto a la altura que puede dar a mi me va bien (mido 1.69) y por el peso tampoco he tenido problemas (70 kg).El respaldo se siente bien y no he tenido problemas de tener calor ni nada ya que es una malla que no te hace sudar.En el movimiento de la silla las ruedas no rechinan ni nada por el estilo.Por el precio creo que es una buena compra.La calidad de los materiales plásticos es buena, aunque el cojín del asiento no tanto, le falta calidad; la reclinación y el soporte lumbar son excelentes pero hay que tener cuidado con lo siguiente: Es estrecha, una persona 1.60 delgada entra y se siente ajustada, una persona robusta la pasara mal, si es que entra. La altura máxima que alcanza es menor a la de otras sillas que tenemos, el asiento no sube más de 49 cms., como silla de comedor estándar y tenemos sillas que suben más, por lo que también una persona alta de 1.80 se sentirá incomoda al usarla con las piernas recogidas todo el tiempo. Funciona perfecto y se arma muy fácil, eso si.ProsEs muy fácil de armarMe gusta que se suben los descama brazosEs relativamente cómodaContrasEl soporte lumbar no es el mejorNo se reclina hacia atrásEl asiento es muy grande/largo (mido 1.74 y me queda bien en cuanto a que mis piernas no quedan colgando ni la silla queda muy abajo) quizás para alguien de menor estatura esto pueda ser un problemaLos materiales se ven de buena calidad en relación al precioOtro(este punto lo actualizaré en unas semanas que La haya usado más)No se si es que usé x varios días una silla de plástico y mi espalda baja quedó adolorida o es que esta silla no es tan cómoda y causa dolorA un año de la compra de esta bella silla. ME complace escribir que, sentado en ella, estoy satisfecho con la compra.Amigos han dormido en esta silla y al despertar dicen "ah su madre, dormí mal, pero no tan mal como imaginaba"Fabulosa por el precio.
