Thank for the advice but I am in east Malaysia and don think there is any to try here. How about alterseat? Based on picture it seems to have better quality.
Just checked on their website and seems they have selected models at selected Digi stores nationwide. Perhaps you can check it out.
https://alterseat.com/pages/locationBeen using Alterseat CG Prime (RM 1.4k) for past 2 months. I tried it before buying at their PJ showroom.
Overall very happy with it. I'm 173cm, 56kg so height and size of chair suits me just fine. Able to sit cross legged comfortably as well.
Lumbar height is adjustable but not by alot. Positioning suits me just fine. Lumbar depth is fixed.
Using headrest at lowest position and height is just nice and comfy for me.
Mesh is comfy and smooth. So far no skin irritation, even when butt naked.
Have tried an Ergohuman for comparison but disliked the mesh as it was too tight, making it stiff and uncomfortable for my tailbone after 1.5-2 hours of sitting.
All parts which are adjustable are easy to reach and adjust whilst seated. Even the wheel locking mechanism.
Only minor gripe I'd have would be leaning mechanism can only be locked in 3 fixed positions, lowest being about 50 degrees, instead of at any point.
My final consideration was between this and Merryfair's Wau (highly customisable on materials and colours) which was similarly priced back then. Eliminated Sihoo, Steelcase, Ikea, Ergohuman due to price, features and/or access for testing.
Was using a RM 200 gaming chair for past 2 years so its a huge difference for me. All the body aches (neck, tailbone, shoulders, back) went away once I switched chairs, other then my bad habit of hunching.
This is my 1st ergo chair so do take my opinion with a pinch of salt (other than testing a 2k Ergohuman for a week)
