Been researching for a new chair for 2 weeks now, might just go to the store and try them out in person because everyone has different experiences in chairs, and that's what really makes me not wanna just buy one online just to not like it when I sit in it
I bought the Ticova for £120 along with aloudy armpads for my Dad and have tried it out myself, almost always on sale. The Colamy atlas isn't available often here in the UK and it was around £300. I recently got myself the Melokea Relief back master for around £250 weird sales with vouchers and relisting. It's like a weird Clatina Mellet 2.0, decent build quality, Big armrests that have some softness, bit easy to move back and forth, good seat depth & headrest adjustments, sadly no lumbar depth adjustment which might be too aggressive and its back rest is limited in range for taller folks, but overall happy with the chair. The ticova does have a more comfy headrest though.
I decided on a discounted fern mesh chair (£890) based on that 12 year guarantee. I work at home using a metal deck chair (limited space) and a orthopedic cushion lol. Id rather get a well known, high quality piece of kit that can be repaired or replaced over 12 years than buy something cheap and have to reinvest over the years
@@tucco2097 The same for me. The overall chair is terrible, just don't buy it. I have sit on it for 1 hour and my butt, back and legs hurt for the next 4 hours.
@ I sucked it up and kept it and now like it. It took at least 2 weeks to break in though. I found very slightly reclining it helped during the break in.
What do you suggest for 6’5 tall people ? For cheap, mid and high budget please. I’m just tall, not big : I weigh 216 lbs. It would be great to have someone about this size to give its opinion for your future videos. Thank’s
Go to the store and try every chair that is there by sitting on it for at least 15 minutes. But if you plan to sit a lot and don't want to suffer later, then the best choice is the Aeron size C. But again, it's worth trying first.
I have Ticova, for me it is better than HM Embody, but why don`t you say that the seat is too soft (low density) so you will quickly bottoming out especially if you are not sitting ergonomic, the armrest on the lowest setting is to high and they have too hard surface so you need aloudly memory foam on it, and the locking mechanism only locks at 2 stops, it should have at least one more locking stop between 110° and 130° and the lumbar support is plastic and on the lowest settings you can feel poking, and the headrest is wobly... but for short time it is ok chair especially at this price.
I have the Sihoo M18, and its pretty much the same chair as the Ticova but the seat is waaaay more dense (won't bottom out, supports more weight). Its cheaper than the Ticova on Amazon.
@norwa3518 The Sihoo M18 won't bottom out because its the closest you can get to a concrete slab while using padding. It may as well be bottoming out with how hard it is. Ticova has better arms and a better backrest than the Sihoo so I prefer it much more. -Ryan
@@btodtv lmaoooo I actually knew you guys didn't like the Sihoo M18 before I bought it, and I took your opinion into consideration (I prayed that the seat wasn't that bad) I'm a lightweight guy, so maybe that's why it felt comfortable for me. I also sit at the front of the seat sometimes. So I'm thankful you guys put out videos on the M18 because everyone has different body types and preferences.
@btodtv colamy atlas on sale for 225$ you guys should be getting a kick back for pushing this thing so hard!! Also I think this would be SICK video idea !!- take your guys top 3-4 S tier chairs e.g fern , embody, leap2, HM Aeron And pair them with a cheaper alternative at lower price ranges such as 800and under and $500 under. Knowing that your not going to get the quality but at least you know they are similar/ related in feel or function
Sorry but what is the point of making a title with 'budget' then the 1st product you show with 4* reviews and is $150+ but not to expect 'longetivity' out of the chair?? may as well show a cardboard box
its amazing how out of touch content creators are with reality, to even suggest that $300 is considered a "tight budget" is laughable that is a substantial budget bro
@BB_038 Someone could easily come in here and say $100-200 isn't a tight budget and that a tight budget is actually $25-$50. A tight budget is subjective but my point is that any office chair under a certain price point is not going to be something we would be able to recommend. We have found a couple outliers, like the Ticova, but for the most part, you need to get out of the Amazon chairs to find decently built and comfortable chairs. -Ryan
It's unfortunate that there aren't many Australian furniture bands that can rival what the USA has. Even Europe has some top-notch furniture brands that are a good choice for those who don't want to pay the extra premium for an American chair.

Could I remove the lumbar support if I wanted?
I have owned a Ticova since last December, and I must say that it has done nothing but worsen my neck problems.
Agreed
@@AnonsTreasures they do say that Colamy Atlas is way better than the Ticova.
@@forsak3n749 I purchased one recently. It is far better.

I got the Ticova now. The Colamy isn't available in my country either. Question for you: how do you like the aloudy armpads?
@@kevjapan great buy
No way!, I was looking to buy one of this two. Actually waiting for this fight between Ticova vs Atlas. Right on time guys! Thank you

Excellent choice, that's a great price for a top tier chair.
Colamy Atlas vs 5188? Any suggestions between the 2?
I kind of lean toward liking the Atlas in this shootout, it seems to have a better seat cushion and adjustment. Thumbs up for the Chairiffs!
I have the atlas and I'm returning it because the seat cushion is really painful.
@@tucco2097 The same for me. The overall chair is terrible, just don't buy it. I have sit on it for 1 hour and my butt, back and legs hurt for the next 4 hours.

I just ordered the Atlas chair today, I can't wait to try 🙂
Verdict please?
@@MrSpeekerv1.0 he didn’t tell us.
@@forsak3n749 Probably in hospital getting his spine straightened. :)
How do you like it bro I’m in my chair for hours a day for my college degree and I know after college I’ll be in a chair for a long time too
@@paulvellaIV I like it overal. I used a gaming chair before.

I think the Gesture may be the best high-end office chair for someone of your height, especially when fitted with the stock headrest.
i want to know it as well, im also 6'5, and dont have a lot of bank to spend on a chair.
By extension (pardon the pun), what might they recommend for somebody 7ft tall? That's where I'm at.
Go to the store and try every chair that is there by sitting on it for at least 15 minutes.
But if you plan to sit a lot and don't want to suffer later, then the best choice is the Aeron size C. But again, it's worth trying first.
Is Ticova simillar to Sihoo M56/57?
You guys should review the new budget chair eureka ergonomics has called the Lark same price range as the Colamy.
What desk is being used in this testing environment?
I have Ticova, for me it is better than HM Embody, but why don`t you say that the seat is too soft (low density) so you will quickly bottoming out especially if you are not sitting ergonomic, the armrest on the lowest setting is to high and they have too hard surface so you need aloudly memory foam on it, and the locking mechanism only locks at 2 stops, it should have at least one more locking stop between 110° and 130° and the lumbar support is plastic and on the lowest settings you can feel poking, and the headrest is wobly... but for short time it is ok chair especially at this price.
I also bought the aloudy armpads for the ticova for my dad, for the price its fine always on sale for about £120 sometimes
I have the Sihoo M18, and its pretty much the same chair as the Ticova but the seat is waaaay more dense (won't bottom out, supports more weight). Its cheaper than the Ticova on Amazon.

Have you tried the desktronic sit pro? Looks a nice chair for the price.
So which one should i get out of these 2???? i can afford both
Please don't buy Atlas. It is just terrible. It does not provide even 1% comfort.
But what if I weigh 270 and like to double tuck my legs
The Atlas is 100x better
Atlas link doesn't work any more, Ticova is now $200
Can you guys review forma5 Kineo 3.60 task chair.
just baught the ticova for 112€ including tax(19%) here in germany :D really happy to get this deal
i'm checking discount sites of germany and can't find anything
the colamy atlas literally doesnt deliver to europe. i hate seeing it so much
It does, they have recently started shipping to europe. Just search colamy eu in google and it’ll show up
@btodtv
colamy atlas on sale for 225$ you guys should be getting a kick back for pushing this thing so hard!!
Also I think this would be SICK video idea !!- take your guys top 3-4 S tier chairs e.g fern , embody, leap2, HM Aeron
And pair them with a cheaper alternative at lower price ranges such as 800and under and $500 under. Knowing that your not going to get the quality but at least you know they are similar/ related in feel or function
The atlas seat cushion is unbearable for me. Actually painful.
it breaks in after 1 week. it's pretty comfy.
why not buy a recliner for work
Like a sofa or a lounge chair?
Sorry but what is the point of making a title with 'budget' then the 1st product you show with 4* reviews and is $150+ but not to expect 'longetivity' out of the chair??
may as well show a cardboard box
For anything cheaper you are quite literally getting a cardboard box.
Issue is that we won’t be able to get good chairs for more but I’m willing to bet these are 1000x better than a cheap gaming chair
Nothing under 400 will last more than a couple years of regular use
its amazing how out of touch content creators are with reality, to even suggest that $300 is considered a "tight budget" is laughable that is a substantial budget bro
Not for an office chair ... bro. -Ryan
Yes for an office chair. A tight budget would be like 100-200. 300+ is definitely not “tight”
@BB_038 Someone could easily come in here and say $100-200 isn't a tight budget and that a tight budget is actually $25-$50. A tight budget is subjective but my point is that any office chair under a certain price point is not going to be something we would be able to recommend.

I think you might be out of touch with the market for office chairs
I was expecting this to be a three-way with _both_ Colamy chairs on your cheat sheet.
Giovanna Turnpike
god. i wish most of these were for my country in Australia. the gotdam Atlas is $1,100 here!
It's unfortunate that there aren't many Australian furniture bands that can rival what the USA has.
Even Europe has some top-notch furniture brands that are a good choice for those who don't want to pay the extra premium for an American chair.
Don’t know about the ticova but the colamy atlas is a piece of junk. I would not pay $50 for the atlas.
Why’s that? You’re supposed to expound instead of just making baseless claims.
Looks like Colamy's out of business?
