Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pros
Pro 12 year warranty that covers everything
Pro Mesh is cool (not hot)
Pro Posturefit model promotes better posture
The posturefit add-on provides sacral support that promotes a better upright stance while not reclining, and reduces the need for reclining. This posture is particularly better for computer or desk work. It is important to note that although the posturefit add-on can be removed, it cannot be added to a chair that wasn't built for it.
Pro Great for people with back problems
This chair offers a lot of back support, which can be useful especially for those who are already dealing with back pain.
Pro Ridiculously comfortable
The bungees provide just the right amount of support for legs and back without cutting off circulation. The design of the chair naturally complements the contour of any body.
Cons
Con Default lumbar pad doesn't provide broad support
The default lumbar pad feels like a bar across your back and does not distribute support evenly. The posture fit add-on that does a better job providing broad support is build into the chair and cannot be added to one without it already.
Con Painful if it breaks
If one of the bungees wears out over time and snaps, it can whip whoever is sitting in it.
