May I know what's your height/body stature? I'm growing more impatient to get a better chair while I'm stuck under this lockdown with no showroom to test sit a good chair... Considering to buy this for the mean time. Once the lockdown lifts, I'll just give to my family and look for a better and pricier one.

If anyone has a decent recommendation for a <RM300 chair, that would be great too.

agree. was thinking the mesh would probably stretch out overtime leaving you with little to no back support.

loose lumber and shaky on backrest and seat.

Totally not worth it then

Oh? Isn't that the wrist should be rested ideally straight with 90degree angle with your arm?
and with the normal typing position, it should be rested on the table.

Talked to Alterseat support, they insist that my sitting position is incorrect.
They claimed that no one has complained about the lumbar support design, and I'm the first to complaint about it.
I highlighted that the hard plastic of the lumbar support should not pushes against my back. It should be supported by the cushion instead.
After a call with their technician, they decided to send technician on-site to help me get the lumbar support removed.

Now here is the interesting part. As soon as the technician saw my chair, immediately he told me that the lumbar support was incorrectly assembled from the factory.
The lumbar cushion that supposed to face downward is now facing upward. Which is why the hard plastic bracket is exposed to my back rather than the padded part.
It's really a huge difference after the technician fixes lumbar cushion position. Problem solved. Lol

I’m a chair Youtuber! Have a Herman Miller Aeron, and will be getting a Steelcase Leap! Most of my videos however as of now are about the Secretlab Titan 2022, and you can find them here:

Would appreciate feedback and look forward to learning more about ergonomics in days to come - if you enjoy the videos, I’d also be incredibly happy!

A chair is so important especially in these times and I’m shocked that there isn’t so much bigger or more organized of a community dedicated to it - have created a small Facebook group, in case anyone’s interested

What’s your model can share?

I was talking about the back seating position. For your arm, it won't be 90 degree because you won't be sitting straight which is bad for your back (you can refer to some ideal sitting image for reference)

Got photo?

I'm a 90kg 174. Fat guy And this chair is fine. I also buy this cause cannot tahan, gf loves it so after lockdown give her and I get something like a merryfair tune or something. Kinda miss a headrest but other than that, solid chair.

DT-330

For me ideally should be almost 90, with ankle resting on the arm rest. This is to reduce the stress on the shoulder.


This is how it is when I received the chair


and this is after the technician reposition the lumbar pad

Huh they installed upside down?

no one tried this?


guess I'll be the first

Rm 300, I would suggest go for the steelcase Let's B chair secondhand in Carousell.

The chair is pretty good to be honest, otherwise a new chair. Honestly no RM300 chair is decent IMO. Perhaps Ikea but it's still pretty bad.

I bought a Steel Case Let's B RM 280 and a Haworth Easy RM380. I think I like the Let's B more thn the Haworth Easy.

Let's B retail for 1k I think.
Easy retails for 1.5k IINM.

Let's B
1st Person 164 Cm - 74kg
2nd Person 174 CM 82 KG.

We both liked the chair. I bought the Let's B for my friend. Easy for myself.
I somehow like the Let's B more thn the Easy.

Looks like some Chinese OEM ergo chair tbh.

Nothing wrong if the quality is good. But that's what i want to know

Sorry, wasn't meant as a bad impression of Chinese quality. I mean perhaps you can narrow down which brand it comes from and get reviews from there.

from my experience of gaming chairs below the 1k price range, the cushion is.... kinda soft. Not firm enough to support long hours of sitting

Haworth Easy , Steelcase Let's B is solid.

Though used.
New ones are rather costly.

Any good Chinese OEM brands?

The only one I know is Sitzone

which store u bought ur steelcase lets b from? i saw 1 in carousell
