I am so happy with my chair! It's amazing, and everything I hoped for. Big comfy seat to sit any way I like.

Not a good chair.

The chair is passable. It’s okay but would not recommend.

My first impressions of the chair for quite disappointing although after a month it’s grown on me a bit.

My expectations for the build quality were marginally higher. Every component of the chair feels cheap and plastic. The mesh feels very plastic, the back frame is plastic, the head rest does not fit all the way, the back support does not stay up, the arm rests are very loose and feel very cheap, also plastic.

Everything arrived with an oily texture to it that eventually ended up all over my skin. After attempting to clean it off, it took 2 days to eventually fade away. The only redeeming factor about this chair is the cushion. It’s comfortable if you can get past the poor quality and plastic textures.

Overall I would say don’t let the price fool you. It’s not as nice as it looks. Do not buy.

Headrest issues

I give this chair 3 stars because of the immobility of the headrest. I've been having neck and shoulder pain using this chair, I believe its because the headrest isn't adjustable to my height and cause my to slouch forward. Its also almost impossible to remove the headrest entirely.
Pros of the chair - able to recline, it looks nice, comfortable seats and I like the adjustable arms.
The FAQ indicates that the headrest IS removable but when I reached out for support for instructions as I could not remove it, customer service responded that it's not easily removed. Just want others to know this before purchasing.

10/10 .. I am so happy in my new chair!

I love it so much! This is the chair I thought I would get for $600+
Big, comfortable seat to sit any way; I even sit cross-legged on it :)

Tip: buy yourself the rollerblade wheels on Amazon, they are incredibly smooth and quiet.

I bought this KAIChair and it's amazing. Chair is super comfortable and very stable. It's built-in-quality is in great condition. So it is more than expected and worth for money. Frankly, It's highly recommended for everyone who is looking for a chair for long term use. I'm using this chair daily for more than 8 hours per day since I'm an IT person who is working from home. This is one choice that I am not regretting about buying.

Headrest issues

Pros: the chair looks good and is overall comfortable, reclines easily, adjustable arms, nice wide seat.
Cons: Headrest - its not comfortable and I find myself leaning forward to much and getting a cramped neck. And is not removable, at least not without brute force which I haven't managed. The FAQ section claims that its removable. I consulted with the effydesk agents and they replied: "Unfortunately, once the headrest is installed, there will be difficulty in getting this off. While it is not advisable, the headrest can be removed by pulling it with significant force." This should be updated in the FAQ.

This is a sleek looking, great quality, well designed and comfortable chair. It came very well packaged and was easy to assemble. Another amazing product from Effy and an amazing addition to my office set up.

Nice chair - headrest is not EASILY adjustable

Just put it together and it is pretty comfortable.

1 star removed because the headrest is technically "adjustable", but you have to apply quite a bit of force to get it to budge in either direction (up/down), so make note of that if you're looking for something easily adjustable.

Next, step 7 in the instruction page was a bit unclear for me so if anyone else is struggling, this is the assembly order: "screw - washer - metal base plate of the seat - plastic backrest hole".

Overall: comfortable, fast shipping and good customer service.

Incredibly fast shipping to vancouver area, and friendly responsive customer service. Excellent products to boot, both myself and partner have their ergonomic chairs (i have the kai chair and he has the karmachair) and the've been super comfortable. My chair seat can be moved backward and forward so I can sit with feet on the floor or cross my legs - which i LOVE. Would recommend
