Steelcase Karman review
User received a Steelcase Karman highback that appears bent or twisted, with the chair back curling unevenly. A replacement arrived with the same bending issue in identical spots, raising questions about whether this is a design feature or a quality defect.
Pros
- Somewhat comfortable despite the structural issue
Cons
- Chair back appears bent or curled unevenly
- Top-left and bottom-right seem pulled together
- Headrest leans toward the left
- Much easier to lean left than right
- Asymmetric gap between armrest and chair back
- Replacement unit had identical bending issues
