This chair is getting all the praise from my staff. We run a retail shop, and I have foolishly been buying counter height stools meant for the kitchen. At last we have a chairs that can glide smoothly out of the way when necessary, support the use of being sat on more than occasionally, and that we can see over the cash monitor. These adjustable height is perfect. The assembly instructions were very easy to follow, and the chair is super comfortable! I highly recommend. Read more

The chair assembles in about 25 minutes, no issues. Directions are well-written and clear. One extra fastener of each type is included in case one is misplaced during assembly. Only one tool is required and it is included. The components feel well-engineered. My particular shipping box was dropped, probably off the back of a truck. It was smashed really good. Somebody added a bunch of tape mid-shipment to hold the box together. However, the chair's components are so robust none were damaged. It is very comfortable. I'm 71" tall. Good range of height adjustment. The seat is adjustable from 23" to 30" above the floor (an actual measurement). My workbench is 36" high. The lowest height adjustment is about 1" too low, the highest adjustment is far too high. This Hylone would make an outstanding pub chair, but I have forgotten the standard height of a bar. The foot ring adjusts easily and seems robust. Fabric is some kinda breathable material, so no worries about it getting sticky in humid climates. The arms swing up and out of the way further than I expected. Movement is smooth yet firm. The gas cylinder, tilt-lock and tilt-tension adjustments work very well. The wheels roll effortlessly and quietly. My concrete basement floor has a gentle slope, gravity slowly pulls the chair exactly to the center of the drain every single time - no matter where I place the chair - remarkable. A couple square feet of thin carpeting under the chair prevents gravity from winning. I'm satisfied with the entire experience, something that does not often occur. Read more

This chair works well with a standing desk. My desk has motorized height adjustment for use with a standard chair, but it never felt quite right. After checking reviews, I ordered this drafting chair. It’s not quite tall enough to eliminate the need for desk adjustments, but it bridges the gap between sitting and standing nicely. Features: Assembly was straightforward and took little time. I chose black—always a safe choice. Comfortable overall, with swing-up arms that add flexibility. Height adjustment works fine, though I need it at the highest setting. Seat tilt and lock are useful additions. Wheels roll smoothly on my floor mat. Challenges: The material feels durable, but the ribbed armrests can irritate my elbows after a while. The instructions omit a key detail about the footrest. At first, it kept slipping down, but I discovered a notch below the knob. Rotating the footrest until the notch aligns with the metal plate on the rubber tensioner (there are at least two) solved the issue. Since then, the footrest has stayed in place. Overall, it’s a sturdy, comfortable chair with thoughtful features. Read more

It's a great chair -- very solid and I love the soft wheels. I'd just like to point out that on the seat height, they measure from the BOTTOM of the seat, not the ton. This made quite a difference to me. I couldn't get my legs under my workbench and I had to hire someone to literally cut part of the bench off. But it does say something about the chair that I chose to do that rather than buy a new chair! I also couldn't face the disassembly and repackaging - it took me a long time to put it together.

I have a Vari standing desk which I love. My challenge was that after standing for six hours I really needed a draft chair to continue working. This chair is amazing. It’s the right height, comfortable and helps me relieve the pressure on my feet. The wheels don’t lock so I have to be careful mounting and dismounting, but that’s minor compared to the benefits.

Pros: Easy to assemble Good build quality Comfortable Lumbar support seems adequate The wheels allow for easy movement Lifting arms Cons: Expensive for what it is For me the height will not adjust low enough for my legs to fit under my desk comfortably. The arms could be a little longer and could be a little more cushioned. Read more
