If you break down it down to a per-year price and don’t have any issues with the chair, you’re guaranteed seven years with the chair. When looking at the overall adjustability of the chair and the policies you’re getting from Staples, it’s hard to argue against the $199.99 price tag. As for the headrest, the height adjustment only goes up so far, making the headrest too low on your head/neck and causing discomfort. Because the chair doesn’t have seat depth adjustment, taller people may be uncomfortable due to the seat feeling too short. The seat and arm height will be fine, but the seat depth and headrest may be uncomfortable. Not Great For Tall Peopleįor those 6 feet and taller, this chair may not be for you. Lastly, the range of the adjustable lumbar height is only an inch or so, not giving you a lot of leeway for placing it exactly where you want it. This caused the user to feel like he was missing some support in his lower back area. While this may not apply to every user, one said that he kept wanting to move the backrest down, but due to the chairs lack of height adjustment, he couldn’t. Something that was also noted during testing was the gap between the backrest and the seat. The frame itself is hard and stiff, which may prevent you from moving freely or stretching without discomfort from hitting the frame. You don’t get the cradled, form-fitting feeling that you’d get from a mid or high-end chair, instead, it feels like you’re just resting on top of the mesh. Similar to the seat, the mesh on the back is lacking in elasticity. Unfortunately, this leads to a crease between the foam and mesh, causing discomfort for users. A lot of mesh chairs put a pad in the front of the seat to give users more cushion and protect legs from hitting the front of the frame. It’s not a very large seat and you can feel the frame on the sides and the front (which is common with mesh chairs), but due to the size of the frame, it’s uncomfortable to move around in this chair while seated.Īnother thing we didn’t love about this seat is the front pad design. Something that was particularly uncomfortable with the Hyken is the pronounced frame. This is something that you’ll definitely feel when you’re sitting in the chair because it doesn’t have the same type of spring. The mesh that is used on this chair is not high-end, so it won’t hold the same elasticity and softness as mid-higher end chairs. Out of the box, we found a few imperfections on the chair including staining on the mesh, tears on the mesh of the seat pad, and a bent armrest on one side. One thing that we questioned about this chair are the quality control standards. We also noticed that the functions don’t operate quite as smoothly as mid to high-end chairs, which is expected from a chair for $199.99. The casters, base, armrests, arm pads, and mesh are all made from low quality materials. Unfortunately, that means that every component on this chair is low-end. The Staples Hyken will give you a decent headrest with adjustability at a low price.Īt the price point it’s at, you can’t expect the Staples Hyken to be a high-end chair. A lot of the times if you do find one, it won’t have a lot, or any adjustability. It’s tough to find a chair with a decent headrest on it for a price close to that of the Hyken. Overall, you’re getting a lot of adjustments for a chair that is only $199.99. It features seat height adjustment, tension control, multiple-position tilt lock, height adjustable arms, height, adjustable lumbar support, and a two-way adjustable headrest. Adjustment PackageĪnother thing we liked about this chair is the adjustment package. This is a fantastic warranty in comparison to other chairs at this price range, ensuring you have seven years of quality usage of the chair. The Staples Hyken also includes seven-year warranty that covers everything on the chair. This means if you don’t like it right away, you can simply disassemble the chair, put it back in the box, and return it for a full refund. You’ll get a true money back guarantee after a 30-day trial with your chair. Right off the bat, the Staples Hyken has great policies for a chair at this price range.
