About the Sihoo M57 Ergonomic Chair (Gray)
The M57 is Sihoo's long-running budget mesh chair, here in gray. Back and seat are both mesh, so it stays cool in summer, and the backrest is shaped to follow the S curve of your spine. The lumbar pad moves up and down and in and out, the headrest rises by 3.9 in (10 cm) and tilts 45 degrees, and the armrests adjust up and down, forward and back, and rotate.
A single handle sets seat height and recline, which goes up to 126 degrees. Sihoo rates it for 330 lb (150 kg), with an 18.1 in (46 cm) seat depth and a 3-year warranty, and it is certified to BIFMA and SGS standards. The seat depth does not adjust and the mesh seat is firmer than foam, and one French owner around 5 ft 9 in finds the headrest a little low even at its highest setting.
