Modway EEI-757 Articulate Ergonomic Mesh Office Chair in Blue

Short review: I last bought this chair here on Amazon in September of 2018. Now that it is showing wear, I figured something better must exist by now. After trying multiple options, going to box store after box store, I am replacing this chair with the same model in July 2024. Enough said.Long review: I sit at a desk. A LOT. It may actually be the thing I do most with my body these days, even beating sleeping. I work a desk job. I am a PC gamer. I like programming and researching and 3D modeling and editing videos and other desk tasks. Heck, I operate two desks in my home - one for work and one for play. All this to say, I can't own a trash chair. Mediocre chairs? Maybe. While we're on the topic of me: I am a 5'11" 175lbs male. I like to move around in my chair, from normal posture all the way to cross legged and everything in between.Anyways, back to the chair - I bought my first iteration while I was in college. It was on the cheaper side but looked to have a healthy amount of features. I liked a mesh back but wanted a proper cushioned seat. That alone limits things quite a bit. I liked other things about it but at the time didn't fully appreciate them like I do now - I'll come back to them later. I used this chair quite a bit during college and quite liked it. However, come end of 2019, I noticed the arms were splitting. Thankfully there are replacements available even here on Amazon (Search for "Office Chair Arm Rest Replacement Fits All Styles of Arms with Mounting Hole Patterns Screws Set Desk Armrest Cover"). This is the one thing I can knock this chair on, but I put quite a bit of weight on the armrests as I shift around, picking myself up by them. They break because of the material they are made of is relatively soft, which is desirable so that my elbows don't hurt. So, I call this a necessary wear item, like tires on my car. I would replace the arms one more time in 2022, and then again in 2024 when I replaced the whole chair.I started trying other chairs when COVID hit, ~2020. I went from full in-office work to full at-home work, and needed extra desk space. The first chair I tried was trash, I had to buy cushions and all kinds of stuff to make it comfortable. The second chair I tried was okay but quickly wore out. The third chair I tried I still own, it's okay. I've learned a few things through trying all these chairs, but this pattern showed me that I got really lucky when I bought my first chair in college. Office chairs are hard to return - while companies design the components to go into a relatively small box, they don't design all the components to easily come back apart.Fast forward to a couple months ago and back to this chair in question. I noticed that the fabric in the seat was starting to wear - that was happening for a while but now I had worn through it on one side where I sit semi-cross legged (as I'm sitting while typing this) and the side of my shoe digs into the chair. Fabric was gone and the foam inside was exposed, and I was starting to wear a small hole into it. I keep this chair in a room no one sees and so I can get away with some wear, but this was too much. I did a lot of research to find another chair. I watched all the youtube videos about the expensive chairs (which the youtubers obviously get paid to shill), I went to office supply stores and sat in every miserable chair with inflated price tags, I was dejected. However, I remembered that I had success before, so I figured I would try again. I found one here on Amazon with good reviews and ordered it. It was horrible and I was furious. "Why is it so hard to find a good office chair? Why do people have such trash expectations for their chairs? Chairs are not complicated, I should not have to spend half a grand to get a decent chair! If only I had the foresight back when I bought my original chair, I would have bought two and"... and then the thought hit me. Was my chair still available after all these years?Obviously it was. In my joyous fury I malicious-compliance style stuffed the horrible chair back into its box (which could not contain it but I did not care - that's the manufacturer's fault) and promptly returned it to order another one of these. Ladies and gentlemen, after assembling it today, I am happy to report that it has not changed one bit! Oh I cannot tell you how happy I am right now to be seated on this chair. It's such a nice chair, it's my old chair, but it feels brand new, because it is both of those things.Anyways, let me talk about a few other features - reclining options on this are great, you can recline both the back and the seat, independently. What's more is you can recline it and then lock it in at any position you want - so I recline the seat back a little bit and lock it in, and then let the back be on free-recline mode. This feature is wonderful and you won't find it on (m)any chairs at this price point. The arm rests and the back are height-adjustable. I leave the arm rests at their min setting, and the back just above min. As you bring the back up/down, it adjusts where your lumbar is positioned, and there is a very wide range. Also, the seat - its' quite thick, a good balance between firm/soft. The curved overlapping end helps your legs smoothly depart from it towards the floor. Finally, this seat has a wide range of height adjustability, able to get quite high if you need it.Anyways, I live in an apartment, so I don't have the space to store a spare, but if I did I would totally be ordering one. I'm half tempted to replace my "okay" office desk chair with another copy... We'll see.

I work from home, and recently decided to upgrade my chair to something with more ergonomic features. I got this chair primarily for the back support as well as the ability to adjust 3 different ergonomic settings: the seat's forward angle, the back's forward angle, and the seat's height from the ground.In this regard, the chair is great. You are able to lock the chair into essentially the perfect position for your body, which was important to me. When the back's adjust lever is locked down, the back does not give at all. It's locked in place. This was a crucial element for me because it provides the back support I need when sitting long hours. This chair delivers that in spades, and so for that alone it was worth the money for me.In terms of the chair's comfort and quality, I would rate it average. It doesn't seem to be made of cheap materials, and everything feels solid once assembled. The mesh seat cover and back are quality and don't feel cheap or like they are likely to tear.One aspect that isn't so great is the wheels. I HIGHLY recommend you also purchase a set of rollerblade wheels for office chairs. This is one of the biggest upgrades you can make to any chair, and solves the problem of this chair's subpar wheels. A set of 6 can be had here on Amazon for under $20 as of this writing.I have only had this chair for a few days, so I will update this review as time passes and comment on quality over time.EDIT: 1-Week Update: Vast improvement over my previous chair. The ability to lock the back in place is crucial for me and this chair has been a delight over the past week. The chair is extremely comfortable for me even after a long work day, sitting for 8+ hours. If it holds up like this for a long duration I will be very pleased with my purchase.EDIT: 6-Week Update: I continue to be impressed and satisfied with this chair. No squeaks, it's not loose anywhere, and the back support is still as strong as the day I put it together. Will update later this year to speak to quality longevity.EDIT: 4-Month Update: I love this chair. It's still just as solid as the day it was put together, and it's so comfortable. This chair has actually spared me a lot of back pain when compared to my previous work from home chair. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for the features I described above.EDIT: 6-Month Update: Still a great chair. There was a little bit of creaking noise, so I got the allen wrench which came with the chair (I always tape mine to the bottom of the seat) and tightened everything up. Now it's like it was new again. I'll update in another year or so.EDIT: 1-Year Update: The chair is still holding up just fine. I am sitting in it as I write this and it's just as sturdy-feeling as the day I got it. At this point I have put something like 3,000 hours of use into the chair (that's about $0.04 per hour at the current price, for the nerds), so I think the fact that it still feels mostly new is a pretty good testament to the overall quality. I have continued to periodically tighten bolts, but this is the minimum maintenance for any long-term furniture. I have to say, this was a great purchase. I have changed my review from 4 stars to 5 given it has held up in this condition as long as it has.EDIT: 1.5 Year Update: I have moved on to another chair, but I will always remember the time we shared together. The chair is still going strong, I just upgraded to an even nicer one. This chair has now been given to someone else and I'm sure it's going to get years more use.

Leí en un artículo que era una de las 10 mejores sillas ortopédicas para comprar y de verdad la calidad es muy buena.

Magnifique chaise de bureau, très confortable et facilement ajustable.

My back pain got better within 10 minutes of sitting on this chair. I've been using a really crappy, ancient office chair for two years now and it's done a number on my back; I've had this chair three days now and my back feels better not just sitting in this chair, but in general. The lumbar support is awesome.The ergonomics on this chair, aside from the armrests being a little awkward if you like to lean back a bit when you type, are great. Having the back AND seat tilt be separate and lock/unlockable is so, so nice. The colour is a lot more yellow than the stock pictures show. It's more highlighter yellow than it is green. I love it but would've preferred a more accurate representation on the site. The assembly is simple and straightforward. The seat is just amazing. The waterfall seat with the divots for your legs instead of just being a flat "board" I guess is like sitting on a cloud.However, the mesh on the seat has very deep holes and it's impossible to get little specks of fluff out without vacuuming it. I also wish it could tilt back just a *little* farther, about 5-10° would be great.Those two minor points aside, I'm so happy with this chair I could scream. The ergonomics are on point for the price and, again, my back feels *so* much better. Do yourself a favour and get one if you're in the market. This thing rocks. I'll be posting continuous updates for the next good while cos I don't think 3 days of ownership is enough for a solid review.

En un par de meses perdió el acojimiento en el asiento y ahora parece que estoy sentado en una tabla. Lastima mucho, el respaldo no mantiene la altura, todo el tiempo se está bajando, hay que estarlo reacomodando, los reposabrazos tienen una forma hendida que lastima los brazos. El asiento tiene una prominencia al frente que corta la circulación en las piernas.

I bought this chair just over a year ago. This is my honest review after owning it for a year. Worst chair I have ever owned to be honest. I am going to have to throw it away once I get a replacement. Just over a year. What a waste.The chair started to lower itself for no reason when sitting on it so I suspect the hydraulic is starting to fail. I am not a super heavy guy (180 lbs) and way under the maximum weight it can handle. In terms of comfort, it is not comfortable at all. My bum feels warm after sitting for a while and the shape of the cushion is not comfortable (I should have bought a flat one). The handles are not even. One is higher than the other. The back rest does not hold its position and will drop eventually no matter how tight you screw it on to hold the back position.This is not a cheap office chair at all. I am so regret buying this. I cannot return now since I already have it for a year and I don't believe this is under warranty anymore.
