People belive that gaming chair is good
Reality is ergonomic office chair are better for gaming or long hrs office work

Just want to create some awareness as see so many people still buying gaming chair and expect it to work miracle

For me AM CP is not that high, but still office chair is better than any gaming chair any given time

I not affiliate with any office equip vendor,
You guys should do own research before buy

QUOTE(Beach_Boy @ Jan 11 2021, 10:54 AM)
as an ex owner of Markus:
1. the lumbar support isnt adjustable, so it's not one size fits all
2. headrest is too tall for certain people, and it's tilted at an odd angle
3. the arm rest is fixed, too wide and too low for certain application, also the way it's assembled doesnt allow you to sit cross legged, if you fancy that kind of posture
4. seat cushion depth isnt adjustable so those who're short wont feel comfortable wtihout a footrest
5. the backrest frame is stiff, it doesnt allow much micromovement on the shoulder blade

other than that it's actually quite comfortable to sit in laugh.gif

IKEA Markus CP is not that high.. still better than any gaming chair

I bought mine
not sure the quality.. waiting to test

My min requirements:
Must be full mesh
Adjustable armrest
Seperate pcs back support

Compromised on:
seat length adjust (as I don't need)
plastic back structures (less durable)
Armrest not adjust to reclining degree (I don't need as won't sleep on chair)


Actually head rest is not that important for work
Herman Miller also dont have it
