The good:
1) The backrest does conform to the back in a way no other chair does, it is a remarkable feature that will do wonders for your back.It is, however, very difficult to find the correct setting.I played around with the settings for months before I felt I had the right one.
2) Adjustments are very easy to make, and you don't have to get up and bend over to make any of them.There are numerous adjustments available, and they are simple to figure out. One downside to this is that you will spend a lot of time looking for the right combo.
3) You can lean way back in the chair.The backrest will recline without any tilt in the seat base (which has no tilt option whatsoever).This can relieve the back in a way that few other chairs can. Most other chairs tilt in sync with the backrest, which does nothing to relieve back stress.
4) The armrests are the best of any chair I know of.
5) The lumbar support adjustment is unobtrusive, effective, simple to use, and does not give the chair that weird space-age appearance as in other well-known ergo chairs.
The bad:
1) This chair is HARD HARD HARD on the tush.It is like sitting on a park bench.I weigh 185.My wife is much lighter and doesn't mind it at all, but I cannot sit in it more than two hours per day.I have tried 8 different cushions for sale on the market, none help (if you bottom out, they make no difference).You cannot buy good cushy foam anywhere, don't even bother trying.You'll need so much that it renders the chair pointless.
2) The recline resistance tension works in a way such that the backrest will stick-and-hold in a position based on the amount of pressure you put on it while reclining. It can be adjusted to require more or less pressure to give way.The result is a jerky as opposed to a fluid motion.It takes much getting used to.But once I figured it out, I rather liked it.There is no locking-in-place of the recline position, yet there are five recline-limit-stops. The problem is that the backrest will always push you forward as you lean forward, no matter what setting. Again, this can be viewed as a good feature once you get used to it - it is just very different from most chairs.
