any recommendation for full mesh (including the base) ergonomic chair? Budget ideally not more than 1k, but slightly over I'm still ok with it.

I'm 178 cm but my frame is not that big

Anyone here tried this?

Any good Chinese OEM brands?

The only one I know is Sitzone

Ok I might give Sitzone a try

Reviews from Taobao seems good

Because my criteria is full mesh within a budget. Seems like they're the only one offering that. Otherwise have to go upwards to 2k+ for Ergohuman

anyone who had tried Sihoo M57... is it worth getting the variant with footrest?

btw not really a pro with shopping on taobao... what does it mean by third party courier? Meaning not the default courier provided by the shop?

Because I tried checking out a Sihoo M57 on taobao, the postage is like 17 RMB? But I've seen some here who said using third party will cost up to RM200

thanks. did you order your M57 through taobao as well? under RM800 is including shipping?

how much did you paid for sihoo v1 including shipping? do let us know how long it takes to arrive here and the condition

Sihoo V1?

Whats the postage option you chose at check out?

Can share your summary page for the purchase?

Evis ErgoPro is a rebrand of Sihoo V1. If you can get your hands on Sihoo V1 you can save a lot and its basically the same chair. Its a really good chair but not worth paying Evis price

There's 2 ways to get the chair that I know of

i) cheapest method would be to buy directly from Taobao. The chair itself should cost only around RM1.2k, and shipping itself may cost around RM150 - 300+ depending if you use taobao own shipping or 3rd party shipping. Drawbacks to this is warranty claiming, would be a hassle if you are unlucky. But I've read a post here saying Sihoo would send a replacement (or parts replacement) if the chair is faulty upon delivery.

ii) another way is through local seller/importer. Less hassle and worries regarding shipping, higher price than above but still cheaper than Evis. One seller I found on shopee

Alternatively if you want full mesh seat on a budget.... there's Sihoo M57. Able to get for less than 1k.

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

Can share where you bought Sihoo M57 for RM700+?

Ah ok. Same seller that I was following on shopee as well

Their normal price was 828 without any discount or voucher applied

Finally got my Sihoo M57. Got it from mymejakerusi (https://shopee.com.my/product/500470137/113...91-1643442880.9) instead of Aitsulab because i) they are slightly cheaper and ii) the colour I want (black) was sold out at Aitsulab.



Overall very satisfied with the purchase as many other buyers here had. The chair was not hard to assemble alone but definitely much easier if you have someone helping especially the part where you need to connect the seat back to the base.

A tip before starting assembly.... please go youtube and watch the assembly video. The written instructions supplied are very straightforward but you might miss some details even if you understand chinese. For me initially I missed out the part to install the screws together with the washers for the arm rest... end up spending quite some time there removing and installing again.


Lastly some comments for the arm rest. I rmb reading quite a few reviews saying its uncomfortable and quite hard.... surprisingly for me they are totally fine. Its not exactly hard to me, i was expecting it to be hard solid plastic but in reality its slightly soft.

Also I know M57 dont really have width adjustments for the arm rest but looking at the holes (refer above picture).... i was a bit confused. Initially i thought its adjustable so I didnt screw in tightly but then it became too flimsy. Was wondering if some lube will help make it adjustable.

Yea i know. But seems like the potential is there to make it adjustable if someone adventurous enough try to mod it

There's a lot of local brands out there that rebrand Sihoo chairs and sells them at inflated prices. Evis and Space just to name a few. Just need to be aware of the chair design

How tall are you?

Actually at my current settings, the arm rest (at maximum height) is just slightly lower than my table. If i set my chair higher to match the arm rest with table height, my feet would be leaving the ground / not 90 degrees already. But so far I am ok with this arrangement, I'm able rest my arms on it instead of just elbows. I'm 178cm btw but thin

Also I dont think there's any chairs out there that give really soft cushion arm rest, mostly are just soft plastic, even on herman millers. Correct me if im wrong

Sihoo M57

Or top up slightly (1.2k - 1.5k+) for Alterseat CG Prime, Merryfair Wau / Wau 2

Sihoo V1 is another option to consider but you have to buy and ship yourself from Taobao. Also cost 1k+

Sihoo is great bang for buck. Quality feels beyond what u actually paid for it. The fact that some local brands like Space rebrands M57 and sells it for 1k+ speaks a lot

Can't comment about Merryfair since I never tried them
