Mimoglad High-Back Office Chair review
This user has been using an AmazonBasics High-Back Executive Chair for the past year and a half after buying it for around $150. They describe it as fine for occasional use but inadequate for full-time work-from-home sitting. The padding has flattened considerably and the back support is minimal, leading to discomfort during long work sessions. They acknowledge they bought it as a temporary solution but it's now clear they need to upgrade. They caution others against trying to make do with very cheap chairs if they're working from home permanently, as the short-term savings aren't worth the discomfort and potential health issues.
Pros
- Very cheap at around $150
- Fine for occasional use
Cons
- Inadequate for full-time work-from-home
- Padding has flattened considerably after 1.5 years
- Minimal back support
- Causes discomfort during long sessions
- Short-term savings not worth long-term discomfort
