It's insane this $300 chair has metal legs

but I love this chair. I'm a hippy size 16 and feel completely supported in this chair. Absolutely love it.

We have two Branch ergonomic chairs for our home office and I would take the Titan any day.

I recently bought a Doro S100 and it's very comfortable. Now, I wouldn't recommend it if you are above 6.

I recently purchased a Sihoo S100 chair and after 2 days of use there was staples popping out of the side of the seat. This caused one side of the seat to essentially deflate.
