QUOTE(SmokeyTheBear @ Oct 20 2022, 06:11 PM) It would be best to go to IKEA and test the chairs yourself, because everyone's body shape/build is different. Many people recommend the Markus (599, 10yr guarantee) but when I tried it, was a little uncomfortable for me. The Matchspel (699, 3yr guarantee) felt pretty comfortable and the dimensions were just right. I'm still considering getting this, only thing I am wary of is the PU seat. IKEA also knows that PU leather can only last about 3 years. Mesh back, so rather cooling. QUOTE(bengang15 @ Oct 20 2022, 07:01 PM) i just tried the Matchpel rm699. but as with chairs better go try it out yourself Thank you for the replies, glad I followed them before ordering the Markus online. It was pretty bad for me  Torn between the Matchspel (699) and Jarvfjallet (999) at the moment, both mesh back but PU leather seat (which I don't really like) but ultimately may pull the trigger on the Jarvfjallet given it's better support and adjustable bottom seat. |

QUOTE(hafiziza @ Oct 22 2022, 12:45 PM) I have the Matchspel. The PU leather seat is uncomfortable if you plan to sit on it for long periods of time. I put an Ikea Rexbegonia cooling pad on the seat which makes it ok. Both chairs I mentioned has the same seat so perhaps I may need the Rexbegonia in the future I used to have the Markus which I gave to my younger brother. The seat feels hard initially but over time it became soft and very comfortable. The only problem is the back of the seat which is rather tall and may not suitable for shorter people.  The issue with the Markus is not the back height as I'm 180 cm but more of the back leans back too easily with almost no resistance. With the other 2 chairs, the lean back is more controlled and comfortable. Well, for me anyways as the Markus is advertised as one of their best sellers so surely it varies from people to people. Still glad I tried it out before I bought it online though. hafiziza liked this post
