but it's no good wo, at least the series from ikea. you really have to go give it a try. the RM499 is terrible. the one @ RM699 is still acceptable but i think alot have been sharing here, you can get sihoo M57 at RM799 only.. that's hell lot more value for money.

Where can I test Steelcase office chair at KL or Selangor?

Do you own a M57? Mind sharing your height and your review about the chair?

I believe I found the same seller as you did, on both Shopee and Lazada. They have a branch in Sri Damansara, and they offer up to 3 years warranty and provide free shipping (except east Malaysia, +150 they said 😅). Looks promising as I'm hoping to secure more discounts on coming 12.12, and it's more convenient to deal with local seller.

On a side note, I decided not to consider Evis anymore ever since I saw their questionable "up to 70% off" ads for 11.11, while none of their products/bundles came close to 50% off even. Talk about failed marketing kek.

No one discussing about the new release TL62 from AM Office? Seems like not bad at RM659 for a full mesh seat, but not sure this OEM from which China brand.

https://amoffice.com.my/product/tl62-ergono...ack-mesh-chair/

Anyway I'm still looking for a full mesh seat budget at RM 1k - 1.2k. Is Sihoo M57 / V1 still the best option?

Evis really have cut throat pricing after you know their chairs are all OEM rebrands

I saw the youtube video introducing those chairs. The materials look kinda cheap and thin.

I have had similar chairs from AM Office with this kinda of back support. Not recommended at all. It's horrible and cut into your skin.
Granted that my body size is not even big or wide, for those who have wider body size for sure the edges will poke into your back.

Yeah I was attracted to it initially, but the price was so premium, I couldn't bring myself to buy without testing it. Then the more I hear about Sihoo, the less convinced I was, lol.

"Those chairs", you mean IKEA's?

For Sihoo i saw one seller with free shipping to east Malaysia lol.
Anyway one model has the leg rest thing. I wonder how useful is it?

yeah lo the ikea's one.

nop, at the end i bought something different from these guys - https://www.niture.com.my/
https://www.lazada.com.my/products/hammock-...&freeshipping=1

loving it. their office is so close to my home hence head down there given it a try and bought it. Sihoo M57 was in my list initially but they are further away and since tested this Hammock Eco and felt nice sitting on it.. just buy and give it a try.

PS: i was sitting on TT Racing Swift X before this. really huge difference when it comes to ergo chair vs gaming chairs.


exactly the same thought i actually went to ikea over the weekend to test them. their <RM500 series.. both not acceptable. The one selling at RM699 is still okay but like what i said we have better options like Sihoo M57 or the one i just shared above.

Any good chair for small petite user?

You can do that at ELY! If you mention Victor and also purchase via the online store, you can use. VR100LG (Leap or Gesture) or VR050TS (Think or Series2) for a small discount Call Francis at 012 925 9688 to schedule an appointment!

Hi everyone, after lurking here for a few days suffering from back pain I’ve took the trigger and got myself a Sihoo M57, quick question though… any M57 owner realise the lumbar adjustment knob very wobbly?

Released my latest video comparing Steelcase Think V2 to the Steelcase Series2 recently. Feel free to check it out!



Tried these out at ELY the other day (and even played a game of tic tac toe, lol). They’re both incredible ergonomic chairs at a decent price point and a great gift for yourself to whack your back pain out of this universe!

For reference, Series2 is a bit more expensive than the Merryfair Wau (1650), at about 2064 (2014 after discount of RM50 by applying the code VR050TS on the ELY e-store), but has Steelcase’s 12 year warranty (vs Merryfair’s 5), and also has seat depth adjustment in case you need to buy sight unseen but lacks a pivoting headrest.

Think, on the other hand, is Petronas’s chair of choice it seems (20000 units procured recently, I heard). It’s a chair you can ‘Think’ in, it’s priced at 2.5k, and… And you should watch the video and feel free to drop a like, a subscribe, or any questions you may have in the comments section if you’d like to send some good vibes 🥰

TGIF and have an incredible one ahead!

Any special promo available for the Leap V2?

Hi all,

Nice thread. I almost bought the ikea Matchspel rm699 yesterday. But the table and chair too big for my car to carry and my new house still under renovation.

After reading several threads, if I am looking to buy full mesh seat, the best option is Sihoo M57? Around rm800. Can I check if this chair is durable and comfortable？ My current chair is Secret Lab bought several years ago, the leather peeled off big time after 1 year and no warranty for wear and tear...

Can I check any recommendation for table too? Not really for gaming but I have a big PC and more for PC/work. Was looking to buy UTESPELARE RM499 but also too big to carry.

Is the Alterseat brand good? Just worried it might be another Secret Lab in terms of durability.

Oh lastly any brands offering free installation in JB?

Unfortunately nope (the 5k for two promo is long gone), though Malaysia’s probably the place where you can get it for the cheapest! If you use the code ‘VR100LG’, which basically means ‘Victor Referral 100 Leap Gesture’, that should give you an additional RM100 off.

Great thread. Thanks TS for starting it.

I have my current Tomaz chair. Dont know why after using a couple months its becoming rather uncomfortable.

Thus looking for a new one now, any recommendation for a nice workplace chair <1k?

Thinking of getting the famous Markus from IKEA

if you are tall, then you could probably test water with Markus. but it's definitely not good for short people.
This chair is built for average Scandinavian height ...
