Autonomous ErgoChair Pro review

The commenter bought an Autonomous ErgoChair Pro as a budget alternative to high-end chairs and has been disappointed with their purchase after about eight months. While initially comfortable, the chair has developed several issues including a squeaky mechanism and loose armrests. The mesh back started sagging after just a few months of regular use, providing less support than when new. The lumbar support knob feels cheap and doesn't stay in position well. They've experienced increased lower back pain since using this chair. For the $400 price point, they expected better quality and durability. They're now saving up for a used premium chair instead, as they feel the budget option was false economy.

Pros

  • Initially comfortable
  • Budget-friendly at $400

Cons

  • Developed squeaks after 8 months
  • Loose armrests
  • Mesh back sagging after a few months
  • Cheap-feeling lumbar support knob that doesn't stay in position
  • Caused increased lower back pain
  • Poor durability
