Why We Like It – Furmax High Back Office Chair
The Furmax High Back Office Chair is a bonded leather executive style office chair that has an ergonomic design, and is well suited to keep users comfortable during long stints of work at the office.

Support
The Furmax High Back office chair comes with limited lumbar support, and the fact that it is not adjustable may have it lose out on some points in the eyes of some buyers. Despite that, the chair also comes with padded armrests for elbow support, and just like the AmazonBasics High-Back Office Chair, the armrests cannot be adjusted. The Furmax high back office chair also has a wide seat that measures 20.9 x 20.1 (W x D), thereby offering a significantly large area of sitting space for maximum comfort.

Comfort
Most people will agree that the soft PU leather on the Furmax High Back Office chair makes it look as though it is a very comfortable chair to sit on, and quite frankly, this is because it is. The high back office chair is heavily padded, and despite the lack of a footrest like you’d find on most gaming chairs, it remains a high quality heavy duty office chair that is capable of providing all day comfort. It’s padded seat cushion feels very good to sit on, but in terms of design, we would opt for the OFM Essentials Collection Racing Style SofThread Leather High Back Office Chair since it’s diamond shaped stitching gives it a more executive look.

Adjustability
Just like any other comfortable office chair, adjustments on the Furmax high back office chair are pretty easy to make. The seat height can be adjusted to between the ranges of 17.3 and 20.5 inches, and the noiseless rollers allow for a 360 degree swivel so you’ll always be able to reach across the office without standing up.
Breathability
The PU leather that’s used on the Furmax adjustable ergonomic desk chair is indeed easy to clean, but in terms of breathability, you shouldn’t expect it to match the kind of comfort you would get from a breathable mesh chair for example. You won’t be sweating out your back after sitting on it for long periods of time, but you might need to stand up from it every now and then just so that the chair can cool down. You’ll have pretty much the same experience with the Serta Bonded Leather Big & Tall Executive Chair, though you could opt for a mesh chair if breathability is a priority for you when buying an office chair.
Value
Finding a comfortable office chair to use always boils down to a few things – how much money you’re willing to spend, the type of back support you want and the type of material that the chair is going to be covered in. The Furmax height adjustable office chair for example is what most people would consider a budget buy. This is because it comes covered in PU leather, and it also has limited lumbar support.
