I have this chair, and my advice is - don't buy. The seat has a weird decline which means you constantly feel like you are slipping down. The armrests are super hard and slippery, it's pure plastique. The worst part of this chair is - if you don't lock the back in position, then you'll lean backward and you'll have to crane your upper back to reach for your keyboard or mouse, which results in shoulder blade pain, it has happened to me a few times already since last year. If you lock the back, then the back support is harder than a dining chair, so what's the point?

I liked the chair for about 1-2 month, until the cushion failed, after that if I used the chair for more then 10 min, I started to feel the wood under the cushion and is really uncomfortable. The lumbar support is a joke & the head rest is bad for my (& my wife's posture); I took of the head support because I started to get hunched. Also because Ikea 'loves' his customers, after I took of the head support, I was left with some metal and I need to be carefully while leaning back because, there's chances to hit that metal. My wife hates the back support, after sitting more then 30 min her entire back start to hurt; (she tried to adjust the chair for her but without success; she's 164cm and I am 170cm). I am not saying that for example Markus is better as working chair, from my point of view is more uncomfortable. The Ikea chairs are just bad for ergonomics; For me they felt like a stopgap until you can afford a real chair. If you already have a decent chair, don't 'upgrade' to this. Take care of your health & your money.

@@ghajik. Short answer, no. Now I use a Harman Miller Embody, and it feels just like a small upgrade for a big chunk of money. What it does better, the sitting area is much comfortable. That's it. The lumbar support is trash also. For the moment I don't have any recommendations. I tried the Harman Aeron, but it hurts my legs with the plastic used on the edges of the sitting position. I think I tested all Harman Miller under 2500 euro. At this point for me I am thinking to get a height adjustable desk with an armchair. I am so sad. Also, I have friends over 1.85m and they don't like either the IKEA chairs. I have tho a suggestion for you, a chair used for a second setup that I have, IKEA millberget, it's fine, usable, better than Markus or Jarvfjallet at least for me, but a bit under the Harman Miller Embody. Great for the money. Take care!

That's actually good for your back. The waterfall edge tilts your pelvis down slightly, which forces you to recruit your core more to keep your back straight. You actually find this on a lot of high end ergonomic seats. If you don't like it though, you could probably just get a seat cushion to put on top. It'd lessen the waterfall edge, and probably add more friction. You could also consider the Jarvfjallet chair instead.

I was able to assemble it myself with no difficult and I am not an engineer or a put-it-together expert. The chair is super comfortable, I play video games for roughly 3-4 hours at a time and it does not make my back hurt or neck hurt. The Reclining function actually surprised me because it goes very low, you could fall asleep on it ( and in fact i have while laying on it with a foot rest for my legs). The red is a bold choice and I usually stay away but I love how the red and black contrast looks on this type of material. The wheels on this chair are very very quiet, I have wood vinyl in my apartment and there is absolutely no noise. OVERALL, I WOULD RECOMMEND or BUY IT AGAIN !

I have this chair, and my advice is - don't buy. The seat has a weird decline which means you constantly feel like you are slipping down. The armrests are super hard and slippery, it's pure plastique. The worst part of this chair is - if you don't lock the back in position, then you'll lean backward and you'll have to crane your upper back to reach for your keyboard or mouse, which results in shoulder blade pain, it has happened to me a few times already since last year. If you lock the back, then the back support is harder than a dining chair, so what's the point?

Huh, I thought I posted on your video but I guess not. Your video was one of the videos that convinced me to buy this chair and I love it EXCEPT that it hurts my butt. To fix this I got a Purple brand seat cushion, the second largest as the largest was too big for this chair, and that fixed the problem. I couldn't sit in it more than 20 minutes before but now I can sit hours in it.
cheers, couldnt figure out how to adjust the leaning feature
Hello from belgium, thx for your revient ❤
Anyone bought the MATCHSPEL and has issues with the back touching the metal spine? I tried 4 different units in store and didn't face this problem but felt the bar pressing into my spine the moment I sat into the unit purchased.

I bought the chair, assembled it at home and returned it back a couple of days later. Why?. Well I'm 184 cm high and 83 kg. The problem is my back bone is hitting the metallic bar on the back of the chair almost in any position, but specially if you lean back, and that was my case.

Sorry to hear. Chairs are really something that you have to try in person. Everybody's got a different body type
I liked the chair for about 1-2 month, until the cushion failed, after that if I used the chair for more then 10 min, I started to feel the wood under the cushion and is really uncomfortable. The lumbar support is a joke & the head rest is bad for my (& my wife's posture); I took of the head support because I started to get hunched. Also because Ikea 'loves' his customers, after I took of the head support, I was left with some metal and I need to be carefully while leaning back because, there's chances to hit that metal. My wife hates the back support, after sitting more then 30 min her entire back start to hurt; (she tried to adjust the chair for her but without success; she's 164cm and I am 170cm). I am not saying that for example Markus is better as working chair, from my point of view is more uncomfortable. The Ikea chairs are just bad for ergonomics; For me they felt like a stopgap until you can afford a real chair. If you already have a decent chair, don't 'upgrade' to this. Take care of your health & your money.

@@ghajik. Short answer, no. Now I use a Harman Miller Embody, and it feels just like a small upgrade for a big chunk of money. What it does better, the sitting area is much comfortable. That's it. The lumbar support is trash also. For the moment I don't have any recommendations. I tried the Harman Aeron, but it hurts my legs with the plastic used on the edges of the sitting position. I think I tested all Harman Miller under 2500 euro. At this point for me I am thinking to get a height adjustable desk with an armchair. I am so sad. Also, I have friends over 1.85m and they don't like either the IKEA chairs. I have tho a suggestion for you, a chair used for a second setup that I have, IKEA millberget, it's fine, usable, better than Markus or Jarvfjallet at least for me, but a bit under the Harman Miller Embody. Great for the money. Take care!

That's actually good for your back. The waterfall edge tilts your pelvis down slightly, which forces you to recruit your core more to keep your back straight. You actually find this on a lot of high end ergonomic seats. If you don't like it though, you could probably just get a seat cushion to put on top. It'd lessen the waterfall edge, and probably add more friction. You could also consider the Jarvfjallet chair instead.

Ikea does not try to make the best chairs, they try to make the best chair for any given price point
First of all, I was very happy with how fast this item was delivered. kzread.infoUgkxYR69rUVDfF56JHQRldV2uJeXaPA9LTZW It came a day before the listed delivery date, which was super great! I was able to assemble it myself with no difficult and I am not an engineer or a put-it-together expert. The chair is super comfortable, I play video games for roughly 3-4 hours at a time and it does not make my back hurt or neck hurt. The Reclining function actually surprised me because it goes very low, you could fall asleep on it ( and in fact i have while laying on it with a foot rest for my legs). The red is a bold choice and I usually stay away but I love how the red and black contrast looks on this type of material. The wheels on this chair are very very quiet, I have wood vinyl in my apartment and there is absolutely no noise. OVERALL, I WOULD RECOMMEND or BUY IT AGAIN !
