If you want a mid-range chair with good ergonomic credentials, this could be one for you.
The chair came in a giant box and needed assembling, which was a pretty simple task – and the fancy white gloves added a certain ceremony to the proceedings . It took around 25 minutes to assemble using the clear instructions and didn't create any drama. The result is a solid build, with nicely moving parts. There is one lever, which moves to allow the chair to up and down or to tilt forwards and backwards.
Design-wise, it's pretty sleek, if a little basic. The mesh makes for a no-frills appearance, though it does have some patterning running across it to jazz things up a bit. The PU/PA/electroplated steel frame looks suitably mid-range and feels relatively sturdy, but a tad plastic-y. The SIHOO M57 is pretty comfortable, if a little bit sparse.
The adjustability is spot on, though. I got myself into a feet-on-the-floor position I'd never achieved with my old chair, and I particularly appreciate the ability to move the armrests forwards and backwards – my wrists feel a lot happier than with my old set-up. The lumbar support is the star of the show as it has the luxurious touch of an added cushion to support your spine.
It's pretty spacious, if I wanted to sit cross legged I could , and it seems to cater for a range of heights – but very tall people will struggle. I'm 5ft 5 and found the perfect setting, but my 6ft 2 companion felt he was on the upper ends of suitability. The headrest is a bit of a treat, it tilts forward enough to be of use without having to reach your head back too far. This isn't a cheap chair, it's firmly in the mid-range bracket.
