The Hinomi H1 Pro could possibly be one of the best ergonomic office chairs i've tested so far, with its good mid-range pricing, but top-tier features! Not only this, but the hinomi h1 pro hides a rather fun secret along with being one of the most adjustable ergonomic office chairs that I've ever used!

Had this chair 2 weeks. Took some adjusting to get used to a mesh chair after a padded leather one. I am no longer having back pain though and the movable arm rests almost makes it worth it alone, as a professional guitarist. The lumbar can be a bit harsh in some positions but it forces you to sit properly. Worth buying at the discounted £499. Your review was good!
I would think, that after some time, the mesh would begin to stretch and you could end up sitting with your bum on the support bracket underneath the mesh.... or the mesh would just starting breaking after awhile. 🤔
@@twofacepalmer1212 fine after 3 months, but I’m not a big guy. I like the chair, it’s not the comfiest but the amount of adjustments makes up for that.
@@twofacepalmer1212 I have had a mesh office chair before, that cost £100. I used it every day for 2 years, and the mesh didn't become warped or damaged, despite me weighing over 100kg. I only got rid of that chair because I was moving, and didn't have space to bring it with me. I was gutted, as it was supercomfortable.
@@Locutus A mesh office chair I have has stretched to where I can slightly feel the support structure under my bum 😁(I weigh 220lbs). When new, the distance between the mesh seat and the support structure under the mesh was about 3". After about 6 months the mesh stretched and now sags. I guess I must have bought a cheap chair 😄
How is this after a year?
I bought this chair just before Christmas but decided to return it before the 30 days trial expired. I found the lumbar support was far too severe and there was no way I could adjust it to make myself comfortable. Word of warning to others, take pictures of how the chair is packed before removing it from the box as re-packing for return was very challenging to say the least! Separating the parts of the chair also did require some real brute force and there were times when I almost gave up!
On a positive note the company were easy to contact and deal with and always responded quickly. The chair was collected by courier at no charge which I thought was very fair.
Another thing worth mentioning is that this chair is very heavy. The box was way too heavy for me to get up a flight of stairs, so in the end I took individual parts out and upstairs one by one.
Same deal here with the lumbar support - unbelievable how over pronounced it is; who designed this???? You can see it in the videos so use your eyes and common sense before buying it!
Mesh is also like sitting in a trampoline, which hurts your butt after a while…there is no moulding to your body about it
Way too heavy also
as a Bass(guitar) player i have been looging for armrest like these for years!
Thanks. Sitting here on an old chair of unknown provenance that I got for free when my wife's company moved offices years ago and had a if-you-can-carry-it-out-it's-yours clearout. Just decided, what with working at home so much now I might just treat myself to something new. Of course, this hinomi is way above what I was thinking of paying but hey, one gets wot one pays fer. Thanks for the thorough review. What with discount offered on the current price I think I can bear it. I work for myself so my company will stump up and I'll get the VAT back too. How exciting!
Great tips, never underestimate the importance of an ergonomic office chair
I've had mine for a few weeks now and can't fault it. I thought the leg rests were a gimmick, but have used them a few times for a nap that ended up longer than it should. Picked it up for £480 using a code on another YT review.
How has it been for the past 7 months?
@@musclemua Comfy. It's especially good during the warmer weather. The seat does feel firmer than I was used to but not overly so. As such I'd suggest trying out a mesh chair, seat, before purchasing. Body support feels as good as day one. There is no visible wear. So far I'd recommend.
@@alistermunro7090 hey dude, can you still recommend it? Im thinking of getting one myself
Thanks - just ordered because of your review... gained a sub! Great content.
And? Are you satisfied? In thinking of buying one
im really interested in this chair. finally armrests mounted to the back instead of the seat which means you wont completely lose elbow support when fully reclined. i dont think this exists in any other chair below the humanscale/herman miller cost segment...
warranty wise..they know they can do 15 years, they are just trying to reduce marketing costs by getting you to advertise for them which is fine--i'm probably paying a few bucks less for the chair because of it. anyway, the issue with mesh chairs is stretch and sag in the seat over time which sounds like it isnt even covered in the first place--again i believe only humanscale/herman miller do this and hence they are in a totally different price tier.
It looks great. I have a Herman Miller Aeron, but if this was available when I was shopping around for a chair, I'd probably have gone for it. It has more features than the Aeron while being less than half the price (currently). I guess the only question mark is if the company will still be here in X number of years if I need to make use of the warranty, but if the chairs are as good as people are saying, I don't see why they wouldn't be.
We will certainly find out! If it stays in the country club I’ll do a catch up on a years time!
9 Months on, how would you rate this chair with 5 words? I just ordered one. Very much looking forward to it. @@StusReviewsUK

I am looking forward to a long term review on this. Will that be happening? :-)
The chair size is standard? will it fit properly for 5'6" people with 65kg weight?
How is it a year later in use
Can you still recommend the chair? Would be really helpful to have a long time review, thinking of getting one myself
I have this chair too (but the classic plus edition) as a secondary office chair to my ErgoTune Supreme V3. They are both excellent value and comfortable chairs in Singapore and I agree with many of your points!! One thing to note however is that the adjustments (especially the H1 Pro's headrest) can be quite loud and noisy with sharp sounds, compared to a slightly quieter adjustment on the ErgoTune Supreme. But the H1 Pro does have a built in footrest and foldable design which the ErgoTune doesn't have,, so its really up to the user's preference in terms of which functions are the best for them :)
Hi, how is the headrest quality/feel?
Man...SG here as well...am considering between Supreme v3 and H1 Pro. Am 177cm 90kg. Which would you prefer? If it isn't noisy in use it isn't a issue as you adjust while not using? I do like the foot rest idea though...
hey dude, can you still recommend it? Im thinking of getting one myself
I am looking at this one or similarly priced (at the moment) Titan EVO. I know you have done reviews and used both, how do you feel they compare if you had to choose one?
Superb and excellent Hinomi H1 Pro chair
Fantastic review. I’m recently having lower back probs and have been told to stay off my super low, uncomfortable sofa by the doc. This chair is looking very promising, especially as it’s only S$479 (300quid) in Singapore at the moment. Thanks again for the thorough review 🙏👍
I bought this chair last week. Ai fully agree with your thoughts about it. It's really comfortable, super adjustable and just brilliant!
Glad you agree 👍!

Thanks Stu, that was an interesting review.
Thanks Juliet! Glad you enjoyed the episode!
shoppingfor a chair and this is on my list. thanks for the review.
Cheers Stu for another great review! I'm a UK freelance motion graphics artist, working from home 24/7 and experiencing lower back pain. I'm 5'7" would you recommend this over the Secret Labs Evo 2022? Your comment about sweating in PU leather during the heatwave has almost convinced me! 😉
As someone looking for a new office chair and passed on the Titan Evo 2022 before, I have now decided to get the Titan Evo 2022 (in oversize) instead of these mesh ergonomic chairs (for my use case, which prioritizes leisure/relaxation). At first, I was looking for ergonomic mesh chairs with footstools (like the Hinomi H1 Pro) for back support and breathability. Regarding footstool, I decided I could just DIY a footstool easily with any stool/cushion/portable airplane footrests.
I decided to go with a budget option and got the Hyken Mesh chair. While I bet the Hinomi H1 Pro has a better lumber support than the Hyken Mesh, for my use case, I have decided to buy the Titan Evo 2022 instead. I have learned that the 140 degrees recline is simply not enough for relaxation, and the Hinomi H1 Pro has only 136 degrees recline, removing the purpose of the footstool by 50% for me.
Next, Even at 140 degrees, the lumbar support is not good for the back when reclining that far back. The Titan Evo 2022 has the option to flatten the lumbar support, whereas these ergonomic chairs cannot flatten the lumbar support.
Finally, I decided to go for an oversized Titan Evo 2022 because it becomes big enough for you to even toss and turn on the chair (lol) and it's reported softer feeling. Again, I can just get a footrest to solve any problems.
Regarding heat, before mesh, I sat in fabric and they are fine for hot summers. I am confused why Stu said that the PU leather is better for hotter places, because everyone says the opposite. PU leather is known to be not breathable whereas the softweave is known to be more breathable (even more than the 2020 titan evo).
If I was going to use an office chair for tasks 90% of the time, I would choose the Hinomi H1 Pro, but I intend to use it like a normal office chair as well as laying down to listen to music on my headphones, so I have learned to stay away from these ergonomic mesh chairs with limited recline and unremovable lumbar support.
@@Viewer13128 wonderful thanks for the great advice. Think I will get definitely get the Secretlab EVO 😉
There is a big drawback with this chair. When you recline the backwards the arms tilt into the air (as they are attached to the back), whereas on most reclines you need them to stay horizontal and there is no way to correct this.
This is a feature not a negative
What if some wants to recline with arms under the table? hahaha@@StickyGeko
😁. I am actually in the market for a New working from home chair. Been a long 2 years. I like the design. Very Feng Shui.
Hinomi H1 and X1 are the best chairs i have ever set on.
This chair seems great, I am concerned with its longevity however with all those adjustable pieces. Has someone used the chair daily over a longer period of time and can provide some insights here?
Haven't used it myself, but based on Amazon reviews it doesn't seem to be holding up well and warranty experience sounds sub standard
Great review. This convinced me to purchase one. Can't wait to get it! Love all the features. I'm replacing a 20 yr old leather and wood chair. It just gets too hot, especially in the summer. Plus, their Black Friday pricing made the decision easier. Thank you!
And? Are you satisfied after six months? I'm thinking of buying one
Thanks for this video. I have bad sciatica and have been looking for a good chair. There are so many out there an so few that are at a lower price tier. I"m disabled to I'm always looking for a good price. WIll you be doing the updated review soon? Do you still have the same views on it?
Great review! Do you find the leg rest comfortable?
Thanks you so much for your work
Objective, and very pertinent review. Thank you.
I wish they would get rid of the name on the headrest or at least switch it to just their logo. I get it though it's free advertising if you're doing things in front of a web cam or whatever when you move your head people see the name. Also thought it interesting on their Singapore site the chair is sold in 3 sizes but seems like like outside of Singapore only two sizes are offered.
Looks a solid offering for the price
Which one do you prefer? The Hinomi H1 Pro V2 OR the Newtral Magic? This is an actual point where I am struggeling which chair I should buy.
Which one is better of course in your opinion.
Maybe somone has the sane situation or question?
Thank you :-)
Big fan of the original h1 pro, still using it today 👍
So, as has already been said, I purchased this chair based on this review. It arrives today, so fingers crossed. And I subscribed...
How is the chair since you received it?
Can you recommend it?
Great content. Was thinking about buying this one.
Could we maybe get a one year later review? :)
Hi Stu, how does this compare to the Newtral MagicH Chair? Which one do you prefer especially for back support and build quality? Thanks.
Is this review for the Big and Tall version, or the Standard version? Great video review btw!
I need this chair in my life. ♥️
I am debating between this chair or the new X1 that is currently a preorder. Do you have any info on the X1? There is currently a really good Black Friday sale on for a lot of their products.
Hi!
Great review!
But how would you rate it compared to a secretlab in the same price range?:)
I just got this chair. I was a bit surprised at the amount of plastic used in the frame. But so far so good.
hey dude, can you still recommend it? Im thinking of getting one myself
@@rave7044 It's so so. I would recommend getting a steelcase chair. I have two of them and I prefer both of them to the Hinomi.
your delivery and inflection are amazing here. Such a great review that kept me interested the whole video. I've said it before but you are very clarkson like. Maybe it because your from the same area of the UK? Don't know, Don't care. One other thing, and you probably covered this in a previous video. Why do your speakers not have dust caps on them? Does that not f*ck up the voice coils?
JC and Stu have different accents. JC is from Doncaster, and speaks with a slight Midlands accent, but largely sounds like a South England accent. As for Stu, I don't know where in England he is from, but he speaks with a South England accent, *probably* South East England, rather than South West England.
I’m 6.0 feet. Is this a good chair that? 💛
You need to be on the gadget show.. anyways you might not have time to answer this but would you pick this over a gaming chair. Ty sir. You brilliant
Nice review but what is that screensaver playing on your beautiful desk ?
I like it, but looks like tolerances need some work. I'll wait for gen 2.
so hows that chair holding up.. good I hope cause i just bought one :p
Is this coming to the US? @Stu?
Nissan needs to make a zero gravity office chair
Hi Stu, I am thinking of getting this chair, but I need your advice, I have upper and lower hamstring tendonitis, so I'm looking for a mesh chair that won't be touching off my lower hamstring (just above the knees) if I have the seat height up high, I'm 6foot 2 and for me I have to have my knees below my hips, this keeps the pressure off my hamstring, however most of these mesh chairs I have looked at have some padding near the knees or in cases like the Herman miller Areon, the haed plastic is not low enough that I can set my seat height high ie knees below hips without the hamstring tendons getting pressure off the edge of the chair. I wonder if you could tell me if this would be the case for you as you're above 6 foot so it'll give me a good idea, from what I have seen the hard plastic is low enough that it shouldn't cause an issue for me in this scenario and there's no padding high up at the edge of the seat where my knees would be. Thanks so much and sorry for the long message
If you get a chance, it would be cool to see a review of an Xchair at some point, especially one with the heating, cooling, and massage features added on. I'm really curious if they're as good as advertised, as they're worth a very pretty penny (I think the cheapest one with those add ons is still over $1000 CAD)
I reviewed the Mavic m9, which from my memory is owned by x chair, and is built almost identically!
@@StusReviewsUK ah yes I did see that review, didn't realize it was made by Xchair as well. If that's the case I don't expect their other chairs to be worth the cost, even with the extra bells and whistles. I'll stick with my Secret Lab chair for now (bought it partially thanks to your review, which is also how I discovered your channel!) and consider a Hinomi in the future. Thanks for all that you do, really enjoy your channel!
@@alexbeattie5621 secretlab are still great, and still in my gaming setup 👌 it’s hard to pick between them - love them both for different reasons!
@@StusReviewsUKis the Mavix M9 the $1k disappointment you referred to? I don't recall seeing a follow-up review of the chair, just the initial impressions.
edit: 19/12/22 i just contacted them through their website got an update they dont ship to australia but possibly might open up in the future which im assuming aint anytime soon
well i already got my secretlab 22 with that twist knob lumbar but if i saw this chair before would have gotten this one. after upgrading from a cheapo mesh office chair similar shape (not the rest of the features) to this hinomi especially that headrest i kind of miss the mesh for that breathability and suspended feel especially living down here in australia when it gets hot. even when its cold i just grab a small plush blanket to cover the chair from breathing too much. though idk ive been using the full recline pretty frequently and lay mostly on my side in this secretlab and ive knocked out having some good naps on this chair because it reclines so deeeeep might be hard to make the switch. ill keep this hinomi chair on my wishlist at least. 7/10 not enough guitar shredding and hair flicking
u kinda nailed the reason i chose not to get the Hinomi H1 Pro. From my previous mesh ergo chair, I learned that 140 degrees recline is simply not enough, and the Hinomi H1 Pro has 136 degrees recline, even less. I also learned that it's better for the back to flatten the lumbar support when in max recline, and most ergo mesh chairs cannot flatten the lumbar support and hurts even at 140 degrees recline. I decided to order an oversized Titan Evo 2022 and just get a footrest. My intention is to sleep in any position on this oversized throne while listening to my hi-fi headphone system on desktop so I can catch some sleep while listening to music. I believe the Hinomi H1 Pro is good if you are sitting upright the whole time, but for my use case, I need to be able to sit up and lay down. My impression is that the Titan Evo 2022 is a better all-rounder in this regard.
Sadly not available on Amazon and I’ve been burnt really bad when I brought and returned the secret lab chair in the past. Paid $160 to return it!!
A lot of chair providers don’t use Amazon. Best bet is use a credit card with section 75 protection. Look it up, but should cover you for any issues (I think).
@@StusReviewsUK Good advice. Everyone in UK use a credit card
Bought of the basis of this review - with Black Friday deal of £399
how has this been holding up since purchase? have you been using it a lot? You said pretty fab things about it, but looking at you sitting on it, it looks fragile, wobbly... specially the foot rest thing, looks like something that would break after the 3rd use.
I'm still using it at the editing desk, without issue. And believe me - if you'd tried the mavix chair you'd say this one is as solid as a rock!
Can you lock the tilt position or is it just free moving?

There are some reviews for it on Amazon now and one mentions the warranty and he says the customer service is bad and took weeks to get back to him.
Slow or bad? Did they resolve the issue?
@@StusReviewsUK On Amazon there is a 1 star review from a user named Paul. He claims after 4 months the gas cylinder stopped working and it took 3 weeks for customer service to respond. He then claims they were rude and followup responses were also slow. He claims the gas cylinder was stuck and they told him to buy some tool to get it out and he felt he shouldn't have to do that since ot was under warranty. He says he got rid of the chair after that.
Honestly, what I dislike the most is the giant Hinomi logo right on your headrest. They know what they are doing in a world of Zoom/Teams calls. Plenty of free advertising, but it's borderline garish.
Agreed. Never been too comfortable by free advertising. I actually use mine with the headrest off at the moment!
@StusReviewsUK why do you take off headrest? Any issues with chair so far?
How firm is the mesh? I dislike HM because, to be its like sitting on a brick

does this model support forward tilt?
How do we buy this chair if we are in the US?
How adjustable is the headrest? For example, if I don't want to use it, is there a way I can push it back without it touching my head? Is the headrest in line with the back rest of the chair? Or does it tend to push my head forward? 😅 This is the irritating thing with some headrests. 😂
you can tilt it in an inward or outward oscillating motion so it doesnt touch your head, or raise it to its highest position. Otherwise, you can choose not to install it, which I think is thoughtful on Hinomi's part.

i got the chair. the lumbar support is too high for short people like 5’5”.
Have u tried to move the entire backpiece down ?
What would you say towards the build quality of the chair? I've had no experience with ergonomic chairs (ever) but I imagine that having metal to the greatest extent of the chair would make it feel premium? Whereas this looks primarily polymer?
I would really like your opinion so I can be informed on a future purchase (it may well be this!)
If you wanted a metal build, you’ll be paying through the nose for it. My conclusion in this episode should help you make the decision on quality.
@@gml6040 thinking about buying it as my first ever ergonomic chair as well
@@gml6040 Plastic being used on modern ergonomic chairs r not rly a big concern. Good quality plastic can perform just as well as metal while being more durable and lighter. Even the HM Aeron Remastered opted to use more plastic compared to its predecessor, the HM Aeron Classic (e.g. the base is now plastic on the Remastered instead of metal on the Classic).
@@dylanloo9856 many thanks for your input! I'm 85% sold, just need to rationalise the cost, but if it's a chair for life... Might as well!
@@gml6040 Yea the main thing to look out for is the warranty and per-year cost. Even tho it's not full coverage, 15 years is still very good for the price. Even if it manages to only last like 8 years, that's still only £75 a year for a good ergonomic chair that will take good care of your back and health in the long term.
Hi
Ergotune v3 or hinomi pro 1 ?
The Hinomi H1 Pro has more adjustments than the Ergotune Supreme V3.
Great review but Jesus Christ you're 6'8? 😂
The chair has NO FOWARD TILT.
Is this suitable for someone who’s 6 foot 3?
Watch the episode. I tell you how tall I am, hopefully that will help.
They have a bigger size. Height is 176cm to 190 user height.
Expensive. Especially for what it is just mesh looks like $100 IKEA chair.
Like i said - ive never been comfortable paying that much for a chair, *but* when you look at this comparatively to other chairs similar within the market, its actually probably one of the most reasonably priced in this ergonomic style. Also, please dont mention ikea chairs... They've been outlawed here at the country club... they are abysmal.
Rly smooth brain thinking comparing this chair to an IKEA chair, especially a $100 one.
@@StusReviewsUK not it's on Black friday sale for £460. I'm defo gonna pick one.
Unfortunately I am too small for this chair... despite the seat being adjustable..the gap between my back and the backrest doesn't allow support 😑

May I ask you how tall you are? I am on the fence of ordering mine due to my size. I am only 1m50 tall and the website claims it is meant for people min 1m60 tall. However it is incredibly difficult to find a proper chair that does work for my size..

@@StusReviewsUK Haha you have different problems I can imagine! :') This world isn't build for non-standard size people which is truly frustrating sometimes

@@StusReviewsUK Bahaha, exactly. It always looks absolutely hilarious when I stand next to a tall person like you. Also, on the bright side - I contacted Himoni and they told me you can ask for a smaller cilinder after ordering so the chair does become suitable for a small queen like me - hurray!

Just seen the price
Unfortunately most decent office chairs are around this!
@@StusReviewsUK yeah that's only the midrange somehow 💀
I mean £500 for a good ergonomic chair is pretty reasonable. U also gotta consider the warranty that comes with this chair as this will give u a rough idea of the build quality and how long it will last. A cheaper chair that is like half the price of this £500 chair will probably only have like a 3-year warranty whereas the H1 Pro has 15 years of warranty. Therefore, you'll end up paying more to buy the same cheap $250 chair again and again over the lifetime of this more expensive ergonomic chair with a longer warranty. Just calculate the per-year cost of the H1 Pro and it's only about £35 a year! Not so expensive anymore, is it? I bet u spend more money on your mobile plan than that! And this is an investment for your BACK and HEALTH.
Additionally, it's just more wasteful and not environmentally friendly to buy cheap ergonomic chairs that will last u only like 3 years before u have to buy a new one again and again over a single lifetime of the H1 Pro. Might as well spend more money on one good ergonomic chair that will last u a longer time. Also, going with a cheap chair will give u a lower quality sitting experience (worse for your back/health) with fewer features and adjustability over the lifetime of this more expensive one. In conclusion, I strongly suggest that u raise ur budget to get a more expensive and good quality ergonomic chair as it is generally more worth it than a cheap $250 one. As I always say, buying an ergonomic chair is an INVESTMENT, NOT an EXPENSE.
It's like £500 😳
Doesn't ship to US? Wtf are they doing? Waste of time. Need to market to the main audience.
Europe is a place that exists… 👀
@@StusReviewsUK Well duh, I'm talking about the main market, America
there is a 130kg max weight limit
There’s 740 million people in Europe… and only 340 million in US… I think that makes EU the main market… duh. 👀
They do ship to the US now (for free), make sure you're on their US website.
Stu. Wonderful review! I want one. Will I buy one? I don’t know 🤷 As I live in Norway it will cost me 25% more straight away…import duty. No dealer here means potentially shipping it back for any repair, not ideal. But I really love the review even if it’s not practical for me to buy one. I still wish I could. So thank you and maybe they’ll arrive here one day.
OUCH! That is bad! You never know... i think theyre in france, so they might expand into the rest of europe!
