Cool chair Kelli! When I worked in corporate, we had ergonomic specialists to optimize our office set-ups. A GAME CHANGER was a keyboard/mouse holder that was mounted under the desk and was extremely adjustable in every conceivable way. It made a HUGE difference with neck, back, wrist/arms etc. (I have a lot of physical issues.) This looks like it could be a great addition to your set up. Wish I could post a link for it here but links make my comments not show, thanks Utube. So glad you and John have new chairs! So much fun. They look awesome!! Enjoy in good health! 🙏👍😊
Those adjustable under-desk keyboard drawers can be great -- IF the top of the desk is high enough. :D I'm relatively tall (5'8" with suuuuper long legs). Sadly, I was always in "cube farms" so desks weren't optimized for each individual, but just for a generic "Average Worker", meaning the majority of us were uncomfortable in one way or another. Most desks are never high enough to suit me unless I adjust my chair shorter which is awful on the knees/hips. When the adjustable keyboard drawer/shelf thingie is installed, it just bangs into my knees no matter what. At one workplace, I was able to remove it (just propped it against the wall at the back of the cubbyhole so it was available for the next person if they wanted it); but at another, it couldn't be removed or moved far enough out of the way so it was a constant irritation.
I was seriously considering buying the x1 until I read there is no warranty on the mesh and arm rests. 12yrs on certain parts and 7yrs on the rest. This is a very expensive chair and major purchase not to have a complete 12yr warranty on all parts. I hope Hinomi reconsiders expanding the warranty to cover the entire chair.
Bummer for the vertically challenged! I'm looking into the H1 version but don't know if they have the same tension issue you mentioned. Thanks for a great review!
I’ve gotten an X1 as well. I’ve had it for more than 2 weeks now and I’m contemplating if I should return it or not because of a couple major issue I have with it: -Reclining: It feels awkward and not comfortable at all because it feels like you should be able to recline all the way but it stops you half way. - Armrest: when you recline, the armrest feels really far. So your arm will just end up in an awkward position looking for something to rest on. -Armrest: the armrest modification was just too gimmicky after having it for 2 weeks. The armrest does not move back enough for me so I just don’t end up using this function. I can’t use the armrest when I twist and turn them like they show in their videos/website. My arm is too far away from the armrest to use it while I’m trying to rest my back on the lumbar support to have proper sitting position. I’m giving it another week and I will see if I will end up keeping it. But so far, it is not looking good.
Sorry only one discount code can be used at a time and so right now the extra Black Friday sale (additional 180 off) is better than my code with the already discounted chair so it won’t apply.
My husband is 5'10 so he was on the cusp of needing the tall chair so we got that one just in case. I think someone 6'6 might like the average chair height better. My mom is 6'7 and she likes mine!
@ItsJustKelli I'm confused. Your husband is 5'10 and you got the tall version, yet you think I would be better off with the regular being 8" taller? Your mom is SUPER tall at 6'7"
I am so sorry, I don't know why, but my brain computed 6'6' as 5'6 and then for some reason it continued as I talked about my mom at 5'7. The tall is meant for heights 5'9 to 6'9, I got my dad who is 6'1 the tall because he likes John's chair, and my friend's husband who is 6'4 sits comfortably in the tall chair as well. I would assume that it would be fine for you, but I dont know anyone who is as tall as you to be able to confirm that completely on my end. I do know that Hinomi has a great return policy, and the chair is super adjustable. @@andyheer1182

Did you end up returning?
Hi Kelli…How is the actual seat cushioning?
Some review says head rest is too much forward. Is that so?
Great review! Please confirm if this chair has a rocking feature? Thanks
Tried your link with code and it says the discount code isn't valid for the item in my cart😢😢
Same for me
Sorry only one discount code can be used at a time and so right now the extra Black Friday sale (additional 180 off) is better than my code with the already discounted chair so it won’t apply.
Show the chair!
Kelli marry Brandin Stephens ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
How tall is your husband? Will this chair fit someone 6'6" tall comfortably?

Ordered my X1 and it's fantastic!! Fits a tall guy nicely and full back is supported. Thanks Kelli for your review which helped me make my purchase
