I was so overwhelmed trying to find a good honest recommendation for a ergonomic chair within my price range and meeting my needs, thank you for your video! It was very well made
Highly underrated video!! you deserve to be commended; a lot of time and effort went into making this video, and it shows. very well-done review! I loved that you used references for your size, the seat comfiness, lower lumbar support, posturing, etc etc and the best thing of all is you used comparisons and differences between each of the products when reviewing them! Splendid work!
As a heavier 6' man, the Sihoo M18 as a whole might be able to handle 330lbs but the cushion unfortunately can't take that. My weight varies right now between 295-305 and I bottom out in the chair brand new. I'd honestly say the max weight for the cushion is 250 at most. Everything else about the chair is pretty great especially for the price
As a 260lb dude, here's a decent tip. If you have an old comfort pad for your bed (like a memory foam pad or something), slice it to fit your chairs cushion and put it on top of it. I also suggest buying a honeycomb seat cushion to put on top, I recommend getting one that may be bigger than your seat pad, trust me. If it fits perfectly, it's not gonna be comfortable. This combination I have found to be very comfortable.
I've ordered the M18(I have been using a literal 5 cent plastic chair for literally years so no matter which of these I got it would have been a massive upgrade). The M18 is on sale right now for half off on Amazon and it wasn't disqualified by you so I'll trust it. Thank you for your review. Also I ordered this through the link you provided so hopefully you get something for that. This was a really good video you definitely seem like you know your chairs.
Something to note, the sihoo m18 changed their design sometime in 2022. The version they sell on their website differs to the 1 they sell on amazon. The base is 1 single 5 legged cast metal piece on the original / website version, and 5 detachable legs on the amazon version. The gas cylinder lifts the chair higher on the website/original version, so the amazon version is shorter by about 2 inches in seat height. Not sure what else they do different between the 2. But this is important to note for buyers interested in it.
I very regularly recommend the Clatina Mellet to folks asking for a good chair recommendation around the $200 mark. It's a fantastic Leap wanna-be that has an amazing headrest and some pretty great ergonomics for those 5'10" and under. I still use it at the work office (but had upgraded to a Haworth Fern at home) and can go all day without issue.
I own the fern and leapv2. Both have the same issue and its their cushion. Terrible hip pain from them I'm using the clatina mellet and its lasted longer than both of the other two chairs I've used.
@@alansmithee.01 hey, so the mesh is only on the back, not the seat, so not sure it’ll make as big a difference. But regardless yes, @svanir.80 please share!
The SIHOO looked so promising and at a great price but, being 5’ 2”, the seat depth makes it a no go for me. Unfortunately, it’s very obvious that most chairs don’t have anyone short on the design team.
just came across your channel today, after searching gaming/office chair videos -- but after watching few minutes, i made sure to exit full screen, and like video and sub to your channel [even b4 you asked us to 7-8min in].. i'm at firm budget below $150 probably -- so your wide spectrum/ physical examples, are very impressive dedication to your review process, especially for this lesser price point.. just wanted to say thx and hello
Whattt thank you so much for the kind words and the sub!! Hello and welcome to the black hole that is office chairs...let me know how these work out for you!!
Would be amazing if you could get a google sheet document or something similar where you rank your new chair reviews compared to the old ones that you already reviewed, other than that the channel is amazing! Would get the clatina but unfortunatly not on EU
Yeahhh I've been thinking about some way to organize these things...maybe I'll consider doing a spreadsheet in my upcoming 2023 top chair picks! Appreciate the idea!!
I really appreciate the review! I ended up going with the sihoo because it was half the price of the Clatina for Black Friday, but your review really gave me a great view and understanding of the product. So thank you!
@@garois_kindalame2757 very happy with it, it still holds up for the price. Not nearly as comfy as a proper Herman miller like in my office but it’s very solid for the money. My main complaints are that the arm rests can be a bit tiring after a bit and I wish the chair went up a bit higher but otherwise definitely still good
guys at BTODtv ranked Ticova higher than the Sihoo M18. why is that? they said the backrest is much like the seat, it feels like a rock, it's way too firm and the lumbar support jabs you in the back. which is better for 5 foot 5? the Sihoo or the Ticova? i'm 5 foot 6 with shoes does your calf also touch the Ticova seat?
In addition, the height needs to be narrowed down to torso height really. I’m short legged with long torso. My sister is one inch taller than me standing because she has longer legs. But when sitting, I am taller because of my long torso. Just something to consider.
15:40 - The user manual for the Clatina states that seat forward position serves as an amplifier for flatulence. This chair is outstanding value for that feature.
Been about 3 days since i bought the Clatina. Assembly was easy af and like Legos. Took like 10 min or less. Not the biggest fan of the lumbar support but it's alright but no deal breaker for me. Super sturdy chair with no wobble. The recliner is easy and like he said in the video, it takes no muscle to stay reclined and it's pretty comfortable. Overall for the office I'm pretty happy with the chair compared to my old basic cheap office chair with no recline feature
We just bought the Sihoo M18 thanks to this video, in green. Your discount code basically negated the shipping cost as well. Appreciate it! You saved us from the mistake of buying a different gamer chair .
Fantastic review! Unfortunately the Clatina Mellet is $700+ here in Canada (~$500 USD). Will definitely be checking out part 2 along with some other videos to see what other gems I can find.
thank you for remembering the arm rest position stuff, way too many reviews forget that part. It's only one of the major items I look for in every chair... sucks its such an afterthought with most.
The 300$ white chair looks really, REALLY interesting. Would most definitely test it if I've seen it in some shop. It's a bit on the pricy side for me,myself and I however sometimes shops have epic,epic discounts so perhaps 'twould be up to me taste.
Hello, I was wondering if you can take the arms off of the Clatina Mellet. I hate arms on my chairs and would love to get this to upgrade from my $60 dollar bucket chair but the design makes it look like they are essential. As long as I can remove them I will probably buy this immediatly for my back health lol.
Hey! So the beauty (and perhaps the downside) of the Mellet is that it's SUPER easy to install because the upper half comes assembled. This means the arms are already attached to the backrest. As far as I can see on the manual, there is no way to remove them. I'll check again when I get into the studio tomorrow!
Hi Dan, Thanks for this video, awesome as always! Could you consider reviewing the Hinomi H1 Pro please, for people who wants to put a little more budget but can't afford the high-end chairs over a grand.
I dint see much of a cushion on any of these chairs. You left out the realspace fennington chair which is popular. 300.00 at Staples but only 140.00 on Amazon. (Staples and Office depot are a rippoff)
Ahahaha it’s been a minute since I used one. Was a blast to learn that basic movement all over again. He sent over a real sharpened one for kicks and giggles, forgot how terrifying they can be
Since I'm 5'5" is there another Sihoo you can recommend? I've heard some under 5'6" who don't have issues but having bad lower back pain I'm not sure if the m18 would be good for me. Thanks
if you can't take the 5 min it takes to adjust the tention of the spring once, for a chair you will most likely be sitting in weeks of your ife, maybe it's not the positioning that is off but rather your priorities :D
I've contacted Razer about their Fujin to try to get it in for review...I'm VERY skeptical about their regular Fujin. Not sure if you can see from the pictures, but you'll find the under chair adjustments for the regular Fujin looks identical to what you see on these $200 chairs. That tells you a lot about the chair. If they don't get back to me soon, I'll just order it myself to review! More to come
Thank you so much for making this video, I was just recently researching for a chair. I decided to wait and save, but the last two chairs for a 6' footer like me which would you recommend?
Hey! I think either of the 2 chairs would work, but like I mentioned in the Clatina portion, it depends on how you sit. In your current chair, if you find yourself scooching your booty ALL the way back and not just a bit slid forward, then the SIHOO would be the better choice. If you find yourself OK with your booty just a tiny bit forward in the chair, then Clatina Mellet for its build quality and excellent value for the price
Thanks for this, need to replace a chair that is slowly falling apart on me and it looks like bang for buck the Mellet is a perfect option till I have some time to save up for something nicer.
Came across your channel, I'm currently building my office/gaming space. Also building a creative space for my partner, just bought 2 Sihoo M18s with ur code. Thank you for this, hope it helps.
yes. I think it beats chairs in the 300-400 range as well! If you decide to pick up, please consider using my links. If not, all good. Would love to know what you end up going with!!
I tried looking for those chairs in my country and the Clatina is not available, the Sihoo is but it costs $800, so I guess I'll just keep sitting in a plastic lawn chair.
I Kinda lean towards the Clatina Mellet. I like the tilt mechanism better it looks like it would last longer and is much easier to use. Most of the other chairs have that knob set-up under the seat and I hate that set-up, it's cheap and in a short time they get squeaky and noisy when you lean back. The only other problem I get is the seat base. I keep getting that nice comfortable padding and it's great when you first sit in it but after about a 1/2 hour or so your ass is killing you, they don't stay consistent as far as comfort, I hope that Clatina is better.
Efomao has a normal seat with 400lb rating for 279 on amazon... plus Fabric choices instead of PU Leather. Fabric Office Chair, Big and Tall Office Chair 400 lb Weight Capacity, High Back Executive Office Chair with Foot Rest, Ergonomic Office Chair for Back Pain Relief, Light Grey... amazon title..
i dont think you really check the comments anymore, the clatina isnt available in the uk so im resorting to the m18 but it costs £30 more than the ticova chair you previously disqualified for being a worse version of it considering the price gap should i get the ticova?
I do check comments, but it’s been holidays here! I’ve answered this question a few times I thought in the comments. For 30 euros less, the ticova could be a good option! I think the cushion would flatten faster though unfortunately
I don't have any reason to believe it couldn't accommodate taller folks without a headrest. Maybe 6'4 max? Not sure how the backrest edge would interact with the shoulder/shoulder blade area
@@Ahnestly Thanks for replying! A number of Amazon reviews mention that the max seat height is quite low (e.g. a 5'10" user with feet flat on the floor at max seat height). Do you think the max seat height may be too low for 6'3"-6'4" users?
Unlimited budget - Aeron with Atlas Headrest. Specific seating needs (such as seat tilt lock, smaller budget) - ROG Destrier Someone from Razer's team responded, but no promises on whether they can send a chair for review. I may end up buying one myself and reviewing!
Hi, among the chairs on the list does the Clatina Mellet win ? Clatina Mellet Ticova Ergonomic COLAMY KIRIN Sihoo M18 GABRYLLY Ergonomic staples flexfit Hyken staples flexfit Dexley The problem is that the clatina mellet is not available, I live in Italy, I can't find it in any online shop that ships to Italy. There is also the clatina version with fabric backrest which is much more beautiful.
@@roxas9763 Ciao, ancora non l'ho acquistata, mi sa che la Sihoo M18 e la Ticova sono i modelli più facilmente reperibili su amazon, ci sarebbe anche la Durrafy, la ikea markus adesso viene 149€, sono indeciso anche io, boh la qualità costruttiva mi sembra simile, fammi sapere cosa decidi.
Mellet is a fantastic value, but the Fern is superior in many ways. Flex/movability inside the chair, warranty, breathability, quality of fabric and cushion, arms aren’t the greatest but superior to the mellet. Hope this helps and please consider using my links if you decide to pick up!
@@Ahnestly BRO! When I searched Sihoo m18 the first result was 290 euro chair (the m57, which also seems to be very popular). I just went on amazon to check the reviews for the Ticova. and noticed the Sihoo m18 on the side for 160 (black firday sale)! Immediately canceled my order. Searched Sihoo again, turns out they have a bunch of different models. I bought the black m18 with the optional leg rest! I'm so hyped hahahaha. The sihoo seems to be 199 for the base black m18, 200 for the grey one. Both are the m18 according to the model number. The black one has an option to pick a foot rest for another 15 or so euro, which I picked because why not. The grey one does not. The black one also has another option for rollerblade wheels. But unfortunately you can't have both the roller blade wheels and the footrest. Kinda wish they had an option for both, but ho well.. Thanks again for the video! I'm gad I could still cancel my ticova order. Also ordered a g502 lightspeed mouse which is 50% off, but then found out there is an updated version of that mouse but it was too late to cancel my order lol. I just went on amazon to check the reviews for the Ticov ps the sihoo's reviews are also far more positive. Thanks again bro. The video helped me buy a better product that I would've
hi I love your review! I learned a lot, especially the different considerations to think of when buying a chair. Btw can you make another review but for chairs that are suitable for women (below 5’4”)?
Hello AHNESTLY! Big fan I believe you make the best reviews in your genre hands down. Would you please consider reviewing a few of the mesh chairs in this category that have the built in footrest? Such as the hbada e3 or the patio mage , or many others it’s hard to sift through those fake reviews! I think your viewers would appreciate it. Thanks!
@@KKwith4eggs I haven't received it yet due to warehouse issues. I checked my DPD tracking and today they finally handed it over to the delivery company... When I get it I'll let you know
@@KKwith4eggs I got it a few days ago and I have to say it's a great chair! You can set most things to fit our kind of size to make it very comfortable. Only thing that isn't suited for our height is the headrest(as expected) which is more of a neck rest, but it's still fine :)
Have you tried the Hinomi H1 pro chair? I would like to know your ahnest thoughts about it! Been looking for a good ergonomic chair in a cute color, stumbled upon this one and some reviews i’ve seen are positive about it, but not sure they are ahnest 👀 thank you!
Hey! I have not. They offered to send one over, but I’ve been swamped. Been sick, Have like 3 chairs I need to review and holiday videos! I’ll try to get on that one after this crazy rush!
I was looking at amazon before I saw this video. I was also looking at the m18, I just wish it had a better arm rest. As what u mentioned, if it could go left and right that'd be nice.

which is better for 5 foot 5? the Sihoo or the Ticova? i'm 5 foot 6 with shoes

Because when you get into the discussion about chairs you’ll get a different answer from everyone’s personal favorite.

I've contacted Razer about their Fujin to try to get it in for review...I'm VERY skeptical about their regular Fujin. Not sure if you can see from the pictures, but you'll find the under chair adjustments for the regular Fujin looks identical to what you see on these $200 chairs. That tells you a lot about the chair. If they don't get back to me soon, I'll just order it myself to review! More to come
except it is for $270 at amazon now
Thank you for this great review.
Thank you so much for making this video, I was just recently researching for a chair. I decided to wait and save, but the last two chairs for a 6' footer like me which would you recommend?
Hey! I think either of the 2 chairs would work, but like I mentioned in the Clatina portion, it depends on how you sit. In your current chair, if you find yourself scooching your booty ALL the way back and not just a bit slid forward, then the SIHOO would be the better choice. If you find yourself OK with your booty just a tiny bit forward in the chair, then Clatina Mellet for its build quality and excellent value for the price
Hey Thanks for the help, I got the SIHOO, and I'm very happy! Great work on the Videos, keep it up!@@Ahnestly
Which is better? Sihoo or staples dexley
Where can I find it for Europe?
Do you have any recommendations for someone 5’3?
Are there any chairs for the short girlies? Like minimum 5'1?
Thanks for this, need to replace a chair that is slowly falling apart on me and it looks like bang for buck the Mellet is a perfect option till I have some time to save up for something nicer.
Can you recommend chairs for people who are shorter like 5’4” thanks
Came across your channel, I'm currently building my office/gaming space. Also building a creative space for my partner, just bought 2 Sihoo M18s with ur code. Thank you for this, hope it helps.
How is the chair now? I'm thinking of getting it also
Great video bro, congrats new sub.
Does anyone have recs for $150 under 5’4 girl pls thanks
im about to purchase a chair around $220 range, should i really get the Clatina mellet?
yes. I think it beats chairs in the 300-400 range as well! If you decide to pick up, please consider using my links. If not, all good. Would love to know what you end up going with!!
some of the recent reviews are making me second guess now but if i do buy it ill use the link@@Ahnestly
I tried looking for those chairs in my country and the Clatina is not available, the Sihoo is but it costs $800, so I guess I'll just keep sitting in a plastic lawn chair.
I Kinda lean towards the Clatina Mellet. I like the tilt mechanism better it looks like it would last longer and is much easier to use. Most of the other chairs have that knob set-up under the seat and I hate that set-up, it's cheap and in a short time they get squeaky and noisy when you lean back. The only other problem I get is the seat base. I keep getting that nice comfortable padding and it's great when you first sit in it but after about a 1/2 hour or so your ass is killing you, they don't stay consistent as far as comfort, I hope that Clatina is better.
Im only 5ft, what chair is good for me?
TOP review! Thanks
Efomao has a normal seat with 400lb rating for 279 on amazon... plus Fabric choices instead of PU Leather. Fabric Office Chair, Big and Tall Office Chair 400 lb Weight Capacity, High Back Executive Office Chair with Foot Rest, Ergonomic Office Chair for Back Pain Relief, Light Grey... amazon title..
Great review. Thanks.
Great comment. Thanks.
i dont think you really check the comments anymore, the clatina isnt available in the uk so im resorting to the m18 but it costs £30 more than the ticova chair you previously disqualified for being a worse version of it considering the price gap should i get the ticova?
I do check comments, but it’s been holidays here! I’ve answered this question a few times I thought in the comments. For 30 euros less, the ticova could be a good option! I think the cushion would flatten faster though unfortunately
@Ahnestly What is your max user height estimate for the SIHOO M18 if you remove or don't install the headrest?
I don't have any reason to believe it couldn't accommodate taller folks without a headrest. Maybe 6'4 max? Not sure how the backrest edge would interact with the shoulder/shoulder blade area
@@Ahnestly Thanks for replying! A number of Amazon reviews mention that the max seat height is quite low (e.g. a 5'10" user with feet flat on the floor at max seat height). Do you think the max seat height may be too low for 6'3"-6'4" users?
I own the SiHoo, I use a dining chair. I think that sums it up
Any news on the razer chair? And would you go rog destrier or herman miller aeron
Unlimited budget - Aeron with Atlas Headrest.
Specific seating needs (such as seat tilt lock, smaller budget) - ROG Destrier
Someone from Razer's team responded, but no promises on whether they can send a chair for review. I may end up buying one myself and reviewing!
Hi, among the chairs on the list does the Clatina Mellet win ?
Clatina Mellet
Ticova Ergonomic
COLAMY KIRIN
Sihoo M18
GABRYLLY Ergonomic
staples flexfit Hyken
staples flexfit Dexley
The problem is that the clatina mellet is not available, I live in Italy, I can't find it in any online shop that ships to Italy.
There is also the clatina version with fabric backrest which is much more beautiful.
alla fine che cosa hai preso? io sono indeciso dalla ticova e la sihoo m18
@@roxas9763 Ciao, ancora non l'ho acquistata, mi sa che la Sihoo M18 e la Ticova sono i modelli più facilmente reperibili su amazon, ci sarebbe anche la Durrafy, la ikea markus adesso viene 149€, sono indeciso anche io, boh la qualità costruttiva mi sembra simile, fammi sapere cosa decidi.
How's the Mellet compared to the Fern?
Mellet is a fantastic value, but the Fern is superior in many ways. Flex/movability inside the chair, warranty, breathability, quality of fabric and cushion, arms aren’t the greatest but superior to the mellet.
Hope this helps and please consider using my links if you decide to pick up!
The prices seem to change depending on their popularity. The ticova is 150 euro while the Sihoo is almost double the price at 290
That's odd, bc I see sales come in for like 140 euros. If they're doing that, that really sucks
@@Ahnestly BRO! When I searched Sihoo m18 the first result was 290 euro chair (the m57, which also seems to be very popular). I just went on amazon to check the reviews for the Ticova. and noticed the Sihoo m18 on the side for 160 (black firday sale)! Immediately canceled my order. Searched Sihoo again, turns out they have a bunch of different models. I bought the black m18 with the optional leg rest! I'm so hyped hahahaha. The sihoo seems to be 199 for the base black m18, 200 for the grey one. Both are the m18 according to the model number. The black one has an option to pick a foot rest for another 15 or so euro, which I picked because why not. The grey one does not. The black one also has another option for rollerblade wheels. But unfortunately you can't have both the roller blade wheels and the footrest. Kinda wish they had an option for both, but ho well..
Thanks again for the video! I'm gad I could still cancel my ticova order. Also ordered a g502 lightspeed mouse which is 50% off, but then found out there is an updated version of that mouse but it was too late to cancel my order lol. I just went on amazon to check the reviews for the Ticov
ps the sihoo's reviews are also far more positive. Thanks again bro. The video helped me buy a better product that I would've
hi I love your review! I learned a lot, especially the different considerations to think of when buying a chair. Btw can you make another review but for chairs that are suitable for women (below 5’4”)?
Thank you for the info.
You're very welcome!!
12:48 ONEPIECE?!
CLATINA follow up - any considerations on the mesh vs cloth versions of the chair?
I didn’t get to try the cloth version, but the mesh version I have here feels solid!
the sihoo m18 was already perfect...the minimum height hurts! lol
mines squeeky as hell for no reason
Hello AHNESTLY! Big fan I believe you make the best reviews in your genre hands down. Would you please consider reviewing a few of the mesh chairs in this category that have the built in footrest? Such as the hbada e3 or the patio mage , or many others it’s hard to sift through those fake reviews! I think your viewers would appreciate it. Thanks!
bro i was literally fidgeting with my trainer balisong while watching this lmao
I'm about 6f4 and I ordered the M18 since the Clatina isn't available in the EU. Got a sweet deal for €153 with free skatewheels and free shipping
How is it? I'm 6f4 myself and am wondering if we are too tall for this chair.
@@KKwith4eggs I haven't received it yet due to warehouse issues. I checked my DPD tracking and today they finally handed it over to the delivery company... When I get it I'll let you know
@@KKwith4eggs I got it a few days ago and I have to say it's a great chair! You can set most things to fit our kind of size to make it very comfortable. Only thing that isn't suited for our height is the headrest(as expected) which is more of a neck rest, but it's still fine :)
Any rebranded name of the Clatina in the Philippines?
"Im only about 175 pounds"... 😂😂😂 yeah... on tinder 😅
lol bro I’m married with 3 kids. No reason to lie
Have you tried the Hinomi H1 pro chair? I would like to know your ahnest thoughts about it! Been looking for a good ergonomic chair in a cute color, stumbled upon this one and some reviews i’ve seen are positive about it, but not sure they are ahnest 👀 thank you!
Hey! I have not. They offered to send one over, but I’ve been swamped. Been sick, Have like 3 chairs I need to review and holiday videos! I’ll try to get on that one after this crazy rush!
Can you review the colamy atlas chair ? Thanks!
The sihoo is good, but the headrest is not high. I am 6.1 roughly and its not a good fit, i am a bit above
Really good review
Thank you!!! Means a lot!
im 6 foot 8 do you think i could fit in eny of those?
I doubt it, brother. Sorry man. Gonna have to up your budget.
What's your take on Branch Furniture chairs?
Search and you'll find my videos on Branch :-) I reviewed 2 of them
too bad about the efomao seat, I was about to buy it. I really want an office chair that's inspired by racing chairs where you get the head rest.
'Plenty tall for you super tall freaks' 🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
I was looking at amazon before I saw this video. I was also looking at the m18, I just wish it had a better arm rest. As what u mentioned, if it could go left and right that'd be nice.
