Haworth Fern review

The poster is looking for a deep recline chair with headrest for their 178 cm (5'10") height and has two used options to choose from. They're considering the Fern Xbox edition with Atlas headrest, which features digital knit on the back and leather seat. They appreciate the deep recline capability, good headrest, and the combination of materials which sounds very practical. However, they have a significant concern: they've heard the lumbar support is really low, making the chair only suitable for shorter people, and they're worried the Fern won't fit them properly because of this.

Pros

  • Deep recline capability
  • Good headrest with Atlas option
  • Practical combination of materials (digital knit back, leather seat)

Cons

  • Lumbar support reportedly positioned very low
  • May only be suitable for shorter people
  • Concerned it won't fit properly at 5'10" height
