M18

honestly i get the mesh hesitation. i switched from a padded chair to a mesh gaming chair last year and was surprised how supportive it felt for 5+ hour sessions. the breathability is a game changer. for £500 with adjustable lumbar and armrests, check the Sihoo M18 or Noblechairs Hero if you can str

You could check the Sihoo M18. It has a flat seat (not a bucket), adjustable armrests and headrest, and the seat is wide enough if you like sitting cross-legged. Another reco for smaller users is the SIDIZ T25 ergonomic desk chair. If you can, try sitting in a few chairs at a furniture store first.

Most people who sit 6–10 hours/day say: mesh > leather (less sweating) lumbar support is everything armrest adjustability matters more than you think Also models like Sihoo M57 / Hbada / SIHOO M18 are often recommended as best value because of adjustable lumbar + arms.

I bought a sihoo M18, the only thing I don't like is di ko ma adjust left to right yung arm rest, pero foam wise so good and the back rest is wife enough

From monoblock then yung tig 1k na ‘ergonomic chair’ then to Sihoo m18 and it’s been 3 months, so far so good naman. Hindi lang adjustable yung arm rest nya (sideways) pero not a big deal naman.

I feel you. finding a chair that fits all that is tough! 😅 If you’re open to mesh instead of faux leather, Sihoo chairs like the M18 or M57 are awesome. Adjustable armrests, great back/head support, and comfy for long hours. A bit above $250, but totally worth it. I’ve had mine from Sihoo Australia
