I want chair how much cost
You are so professional and cool! Idk how I stumbled across this video, but I feel a lot more knowledgeable about office chairs all of a sudden.
Great review. Helped me figure out the tilt.
Didnt know the height of the lumbar support can be adjusted, thanks for showing it!
You're voice is very soothing. I feel strangely relaxed after watching 😂
I have a light gray Sihoo m76 (the basic swivel model without a headrest) and have been using it for almost a year now for my WFH. It's a vast improvement from the dining chair I used to use. I can work 3 hours straight now and stay on Zoom calls with minimal strain to my back and shoulders. But other people might want a headrest.
Sit on the floor. If your shoulder/collarbone is over 60cm high, the chair is too small.
For average torso-leg ratio that's about 1.75m as stated in the vid.
Edit: mine seems pretty solid. If the headrest moves easily just tighten the screw. Back-tilt resistance is adjustable.
Thanks for the review:)
Great review and very helpful, but my God theres about 80 billion chairs on amazon and probably about 5 good ones. Even these sihoo and such seem to be dragged through the muck and back when it comes to peoples experiences, its so polarising, i think id have more luck raiding the herman miller warehouse while dressed as cat burglar than take my chances online these days :(
Very thoroughly review, thank you
Thanks for this, great review.
Thank you for the review! 🙂
Thanks for your review, it's very Helpful. . .
informative review, thank you.
Good review. Thank you! =)
This was very helpful, thanks :)
You are 5'4" and need about 5" footrest at its highest setting shouldn't really mean someone who is 5'9" I suppose. A person with 5 inches of extra leg height would proportionally be 6-6'2" I would assume.
Super quality well made review.
Your math-logic of "I'm 5'4 and it's just right at the lowest setting" and "at the highest setting it's just right with a 5" footstool" ergo "the tallest a person can be is 5'9"", implies that a taller person simply has longer shins than a short person, and everything else is exactly the same. In reality, maybe 20-25% of that high is there, so a 5" lift adjustment would be good for a 1'4"-1'8" user height adjustment. So The travel should be good up to a person who is 6'8" to 7' on the top end.
What a pleasant voice you have. Very professional.
I thought it was a robot
I did not thanks ❤😊 just ordered one
Y’all can’t just go without complementing women online rather than irl for one day huh
Hi, hows the chair? Still use it? Did it have any issues after some time? Squeaking? Bottom cushion too hard? How tall is the seat at its max?
Thanks for the review
these are good
I think our chairs are also very high quality
Do you have a review on SIHOO Ergonomic Office Chair Computer Chair Adjustable Head & Arm Rests with Lumbar Support High Back with Breathable Mesh (Black). It is a take on the Ergo2 chair. Any thoughts?
How’s it holding up since the video. Thank you
Great review!
I'll buy this chair for sure since it obviously provides a good price/quality combination.
Thx from Munich 😃
Hello Madam,
What is your return of experience after 1 year to use this chair ?
Thanks from France !
So what office chair would you suggest instead of this one?
I think the mfavour is almost the same chair but its cheaper and has adjustable armrests
Is it holding up? Is still comfortable? I'm looking to buy this or the mfavour, idk.
is this adviseable for 5-foot women?
I find the lumbar support sore on my back and had to reinforce it with padding removed from a travel pillow. It also doesn't have an adjustable backrest which leaves people like me who are 6 foot or above without proper back support. If you're reading this and you're 6 foot or above, get another chair as this will be really annoying.
How did you unlock the chair ?
How would you compare this chair to the Side T50?
Hello. Can you also review Mfavour? They are quite the same as this one but a bit cheaper and can adjust armrest forward/backwards. It seems a better deal, but i'm afraid not as good as this one 😅😅😅
Also i'm 1m60 (probably aroud 5'2/ 5'3) do you think this Sihoo chair is suitable for me?
I just purchased one of these recently. All's well, except for the seat cushion. It's like a brick. I placed a gel pad cushion on the seat to soften it somewhat. However, as she states, the seat should "break-in" after a period of time which I was unaware of. I'll remove the gel pad and see how the seat cushion responds to a break-in period. Otherwise, it fits me well and I have no issues with the tilt lock mechanism, as least as of now.
Is it worth it
@@catsandme7025 I'd say yes. After 4-5 months, it's holding up fine. Seat cushion is still hard and arm rests are hard. Otherwise, OK.
@@TC-uy8ng how hefty are you? that might determine it breaking in.
Really wanna get one but the comments about the lumbar support digging into their backs are making me think twice. Im 5'7 and and not heavy. U think id have the same issue ?
Hey how tall are you. I wanna get the chairnbut some are complaining about pain from lumbar support.
I bought a M18 14 3 days ago, I disappointed with head rest and lumbar support, please choose head rest 2d adjustable if u looking for smooth head rest.
New subbie. This looks like a very interesting office chair. Man, I wish I knew how to make my videos this good. Great video! it's giving me some great ideas. Thank you.
So if am under 1.60 cm this chair will not work for me?
How tall are you? I am 1.85m. Do you think it would fit or is it too small already?
Don't listen to anyone, this chair is extremely comfortable. People spend triple the price on gaming chairs that are far worse
I bought this chair in September 2020. It is still in great condition, I sit in it to work 8 hours a day, and then to game(PS5) for a few nights a week and at weekends. The only thing I have purchased to make it better is some padding for the armrests, as I use the armrests a lot it was sometimes uncomfortable.
For the price (under £200) it is a great chair. Someone told me it wasn't as good as a Herman Miller, but then I didn't have to pay over £1000 for a chair! I don't think you will get better for the money.
can you tell me what padding you got, I'm thinking of getting some too
Hello, may i know your height? Im considering getting it but im worried that it wouldnt fit me, im 5'9. Thanks
@@tuan7522 Hello mate, I am 5ft 11" tall.
@@MrStateofplay that was quick, appreciate it.
@@tuan7522 No worries. I still use this chair, I just need to tighten the screws up every now and then. I know I could get a better chair if I spent more money but this serves me well.
any update on durability?
HEIGHT CLANGER
With the seat height set at its lowest this lady who is 5’4” found the height just right. After raising it about 5” to its highest point she said that it was only suitable for people about 5’9” (5” taller than her). ERRRRRRR NO. It’s for people whose bottom section of their legs is 5” longer than hers so for someone perhaps 24” taller than her or 7’4”.
Hey nice review. Do you think the M57 improves on some of the inconveniences you mentioned?
I have the same question!
piston is hydrogen filled?
Is there that kind of chair Here in Peru?
Should I buy the m18 or the m57 with the main difference being that the seat is also a mesh in the m57?
I would like to know the same thing!
Is it still as comfortable as when you started your purchase? Is the seat so soft? Is the depth of the seat pretty good? Can you block the seat at a degree of inclination that you should?
I wanna know the same
i HATE the lumbar support. It hurts the back after some time.
very good review. It means a lot coming from me.
Currently have the m18. The headrest is a little low for comfort on my neck. I’m probably gonna wear a neck pillow. Nevertheless it’s a fairly comfortable chair I even fell asleep reclining on this without me feeling like falling lol.
I'm 5'9 will this not be a problem?
@@toshiya4979 not at all i guess. I’m 5’ 10”
@@PorkBillie I‘m 6‘2 will this be a problem?
@@CurryXLuka the headrest is kinda low. it's detachable though I'm thinking of getting a better headrest
The reviewer said the recommended height is around 5'3 to 5'9. Understandable since this is an asian brand. We are smaller people lol
Looks ideantical to the mfavour m18... same chinese manufacturer probably?
Pyjama so nice 👍🏾
Great review, I also bought this chair due to my back problems I have but is it just me who gets neck pain by using it?
neck ergonomics are the weak point, agree...
Getting neck and back pain due to the "ergonomic" support, and I had no issues prior... My posture isn't that screwed either.
Has anyone been having pain with the lumbar? This is my first ergonomic chair, my posture isn't the best but decent, 5ft 3 and I haven't been sitting for very long stretches but it realllly digs into my spine and hurts a little no matter how I position it.
Just feels way too hard... Idk if it just needs getting used to but I find plastic ergonomic school chairs more comfortable lol.
Me too. I felt it a week after. Idk too if it’s me adjusting
how is the seat height as far as your feet off the ground and the head rest positioning? I ask because I'm the same height and am hesitant to buy chairs since most are for 5'7 and up.
@@hueyt224 its ok at its lowest, abot sahig. But if your table is high, you need to adjust to the table para naman sa arms at siko mo. So me i ended buying a foot rest too. No pain nadin after
@@hueyt224 the seat can go plenty low enough, on the contrary because of my tall ikea desk it's a little too low for my arms even at max height lol.
Because of that, I also ended up removing the arms because they butted into my desk and don't go low at all... they were a bit too high for my arms at lowest setting anyway, so there's that
The head rest is just... Ok for me. I can't nestle it in a comfy spot and resting back on it for a while gives me neck pain but I have sensetive pressure points so I wouldn't take what I say about that as much. Height wise it's fine.
Also update with the lumbar, it started giving me major pain so I had to remove it lol. It's a pretty supportive chair without it still but can't say I recommend it.
When I sit back in the chair the back gives way, reclining slightly. I don't feel like this chair is supporting me at all, not staying completely vertical in position when I want to do work! Do I have a faulty product?
May I ask what you did in the end? I just got this chair and after tons of adjustments the lumbar really digs into my spine and hurts it...
you say the max height is 5'9 give or take a few inches? im 5'11 and a half? doesnt that mean id just have to put my legs forward slightly? My main concern is that although sold on amazon, it seems to be direct from a chinese company and i dont know how good/bad their customer support would be if theres a problem
Exactly. Your legs may not be at 90 degrees when you sit based on your height
It actually depends on how long your legs are not how tall you are overall.
My height is 6ft, I guess for what you saying, this chair isn't adequate for me, what do you think? Thanks and great video.
Actually 6' is still within the range of the chair, as the seat goes all the way up to 21.5". I'd focus more on your weight. If you're over 230lbs, look for something higher quality
@@ergonomictrends8446 ok thanks. I'm tall and slim so it should work. Cheers
I'd say no, unless you're already hunched. It depends on your torso length, not so much you calves' length. for me the back and head rest are too low and I'm 5cm shorter. bum to shoulder 60cm is the limit.
@@RobertoPousa how was it? Did the chair suits your height?
This Is nice
and we will never know how fast it falls apart
this model hurts my back. not sure if the m57 would feel the same.
Hey, how tall are u
how tall are you?
5'4"
Is it only me who finds the Lumbar support very aggressive for the lower back or I am just missing the "sweet spot" ?
Yes having same issue I have to sit slightly forward and lean back to get lumbar support in right place as it is quite low down although still not comfortable as it's quite aggressive and minimally cushioned..the rest of the chair is good tho so trying find a way to detach the lumber support completely
May I pls ask how you've been doing with it and if it just needed some tweaking/wearing in?
@@Anreii Actually I got used to it, and it is not that bad as it kind of forces you to make your back straight
@@yolohusky7666 sadly I bought the chair and had to remove it because it dug into the ridges of my spine in the correct place and left me in pretty awful pain lol :') my posture isn't the greatest right now maybe I'll try it again in the future. At least it kind of enforces your posture without it to a degree
i am 195cm tall. am I too tall for this chair? :/
No. She raised it 5" and said it's only suitable for people 5" taller than her. It's the bottom section of your legs which can be 5" longer so you could be 20" - 25" taller so about 7'4"
I find your speaking a little too slow, even at 1.5x speed. Maybe it's just me.
I removed the lumbar support because it hurts extremely after 1-2 weeks and your back will thank you.
Steps:
at 2:58 you can see the lumbar support perfectly well.
1) Remove the silver disk with which you normally adjust the lumbar support. Take a small needle or fine screwdriver and try to screw the disc finely and gently out from the sides.
2) unscrew the screw in the middle
3) take of the black disc
4) now you can take out the lumbar support but be careful not to damage the mesh. Try to pull it diagonal so you dont have to push it in to the mesh to much .
Shout out to the guy who wrote online a tutorial to remove it.
Thanks. Lower back pain here also, have removed the lumbar support to see if that improves matters. Even with the support wound as far back from the back mesh as possible, it was still digging into my lower back. So will see if the lumbar removal helps. Mine's he grey M57 but seems to be the same design.
Thanks just removed it i can finally sit comfortably
Sold mine, went back to Ikea.
Thank you! Feels like night and day
I have had a absolute nightmare with this company after paying the most I ever have for a office chair I expected a ergonomic chair that does the job it states. I was so wrong.
After purchasing this chair as soon as built it felt like it was tilting to one side. I got a spirit level and tried it on different floor surfaces but the chair was definitely unlevel. I reached out to the company who have sent 3 different parts to change on the chair which has led me to labour over rebuilding the chair multiple times but it still has the same issue! I also ended up with a bill from FedEx for them sending out replacement parts from China and not paying enough shipping.
They recently sent me a new chair in exchange however this arrived with out the legs so is useless. I am now lumbered with a load of chair parts and 2 useless chairs which has not only caused me back pain but also are completely useless. Avoid this company. I will be getting my money back I am currently talking to consumer rights in the UK.
Yes its dreaful sold it bought a Secretlab
Another bad decision.
When you said you have thicker thighs in 2:52 🥰
No Offence but 5'4ft tall is well below average height, So that is very reasonable in height adjustments for this chair, Also the Headrest Moves Tighten the Bolt Seriously though easy fixes
According to the ONS the average height for a woman in the UK is 5ft 3in.
5'4 is the average female height, meaning there are plenty of people (myself included) who are 5'3 and below
Its lumbar support is very very hard like rock so don't buy this....
Why would you expect a chair to accommodate someone that is shorter than 5'4? That's insane. Anyone shorter is basically a midget.

I got something like that .... I 1 st.💋💋💋
