Ordered from Amazon. Box and chair was beat up pretty bad. Chair had some pretty nasty scratches on one of the arms. Some of the wheels had fallen off. Other than that, I couldn’t ask for a better chair. The support is amazing once You get the adjustments squared away. A very unique chair.

It is a very comfortable chair. The design seems to wrap you around no matter what shape your body is. You still feel comfortable in the chair after working for extended period of time. If the back of the chair could be made a couple of inches higher up for a tall person like me would be even better, alternatively with a head rest.

I did a lot of research on what office chair to get. Thought this chair looked bloody odd from the back so kept skipping it. All the reviews kept referring me back.

It’s a great chair. Have had it for 5-6 months. No back ache.

Has no head rest but the reality is - you never use one anyway.

We lost our house due to the floods from Harvey so I opted to get a better chair for my office and I'd always heard HM was the best. Well, it is the best and most comfortable chair I've ever sit in! I do wish it had a taller back. It has about every adjustment you could ask for.

Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2018
I've had this chair for 2 years and it had triggered back pains in the levator scapulae/trapezius and later lower back pain. I was not alone in this as my sister also reported back pains. There are a number of reviews online that have reported the same issue. Although no response to these issues were ever addressed. Buy with caution as there are also a great number of positive reviews which report something differently.

The review on amazon I felt was similar to my experience was by Ryan J where he wrote, "The springy, plastic suspension on the bottom and back just don't have the same effect as soft cushioning (one of the big reasons for my old chair no longer working for me was that the cushioning on the bottom was all worn out)." I also prefer my old soft cushioning office chair worth about $120.

I believe the product sums up as decorative furniture meant for eye appeal, not for use.

I have a stand up desk that I like to stand at... I got this chair to replace my 13+ year old desk chair from college. I sit more now as a result of this chair. It’s amazing.
