- Difficult to assemble, per some reviews
This one goes out to all my small space living folks. You need an office chair, but it just takes up too much real estate in the room. I hear ya! Well, check this out: This chair is foldable. Yep, so whenever you’re not using it you can just fold it up and store it under your desk—and, boom, it’s out of the way. Aside from that cool and clutch feature, it’s also an overall comfy chair! It’s got an adjustable 2D headrest so your neck is always supported, it can recline at four different angles depending on your preference, and it also comes with a footrest if you wanna kick back and relax. And the breathable, mesh material conforms to the natural shape of your body and provides ventilation.

- The seat feels hard, according to some reviewers
You know what you deserve? A massage office chair. It may sound extra, but, I mean, this is something you’re going to be sitting on all day everyday…for five days a week. Might as well invest in one that’s going to keep you in ultimate relaxation mode! This linen style comes with six vibration massage points with lumbar heating. The massage feature is available in three intensities and three modes of massage and heat so you can choose whether you want a lighter or deeper experience. Use the wired remote to control these settings (and store it in its designated side pocket when you’re done) and set a timer if you’d like.

Cons
- Not enough padding, per some reviewers
The soft linen fabric on this chair is extremely cozy. And it’s curved back design and thick foam padded seat will make those long workdays so much more comfortable to sit through. Customers have particularly raved about its flip-up arm feature which comes in handy when they want more space for arm movement and how it supports their back and hips—especially if they’re sedentary for multiple, consecutive hours in the day.

Cons
- According to some reviews, the armrests are loose
For all those who quite literally seldom get up from their seat from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., invest in this office chair. Yes, it is a lil pricey… But! It’s got a backrest that conforms to your body. It legit moves with you to support your spine in different postures. You can also recline in it! The chair provides a comfortable resistance so that you can lay back in it without it being too little or too much. But if you want more resistance, it does have one tension setting that it can be bumped up to for your perfect comfort level.

- Not the most comfortable, per some reviews
You know it’s a good one when it has almost 10,000 (!!) glowing reviews and a near-five-star rating! Its seat and backrest are made with a comfortable, high elastic foam cushion that’s flexible and breathable. Plus, it’s got ergonomic handrails so your arms won’t ever ache. On top of that, this chair comes with an adjustable lever underneath the seat so you can lift your chair if you want more height. One customer likes this specific style because it’s not too deep (but still cozy, ofc) and it’s easy to sit on and get back up from.
