X-Chair has a number of models to choose from. It has held up extremely well after two years of continuous sitting. If you want to rest your head, you can pay extra for the headrest. The lumbar support feels like a cushion, and it adjusts as you move in your seat. Pull the seat up and push the armrests up, down, and side to side, or angle them in or out. Who doesn't want that? Every part of my body feels well supported, and you can adjust nearly everything on the chair. It also feels like you're sitting on a hammock. It doesn't just have a mesh backrest, but the seat is mesh, too, allowing for excellent airflow. Thick foam seats often trap your body heat, especially during the hotter months of the year. Fair warning though: Pet hair tends to cling to the upholstery, and I've noticed the fabric on the front end of the seat tends to pill quite quickly. It's a great chair for a variety of body sizes my 6'4" self enjoyed sitting on it, as did my 5'1" partner. The seat is made of high-density foam-it's firm yet comfy-and it doesn't trap heat as much as other foam seats I've tried. It doesn't keep my back as upright as I'd like, but the double-woven nylon mesh backrest feels nice to lean against. (There's no headrest, but you can pay to add one.) It does all this while managing to look very sleek, without an outlandish price. You can push the armrest back and forward, up and down the seat can extend out or be pushed all the way in you can lock the recline. It's surprisingly easy to assemble in minutes (the instructions are great), and there are tons of little tweaks you can make.
