The MMSY55 model Monterey is a Eurotech chair that really hasn't generated the love and accolades that it deserves. In all honesty, we're not sure why. That ends today! It's time to shed some light on this breathable mesh back office chair with an adjustable lumbar support and user friendly mechanism that controls the back angle and seat depth. The Monterey is great for extended sits as its mesh seat with a waterfall edge will help to reduce knee pressure while keeping users feeling light and airy.

The Sit Test: Eurotech Ergohuman Chair

If you want to know if a chair is really worth the investment required to purchase it, there's no substitute for a sit test. The problem is, showrooms are not always readily accessible. When the closest showroom is hundreds of miles away and a visit isn't practical, reliable reviews become invaluable. That being said, in this edition of 'The Sit Test' we'll be checking out one of the most popular office chairs on the market to see if it can live up to the hype.

First things first, is the Ergohuman chair even worth sitting in? Absolutely! Even at first glance this distinctively modern office chair impresses. From every angle the Ergohuman is ready to wow even the harshest critics with its unique design characteristics.

The independent back sections of the Ergohuman mesh and leather office chair are inviting. They'll certainly draw you in for a sit test. Ergohuman chairs look high end and it's easy to picture them in upscale work environments.

Okay, now that we've covered the well rounded appeal of the Ergohuman, let's talk about the features that have made it one of the most popular office chairs of 2017 and a regularly recommended seating solution by industry professionals.

Features:

Tilt Tension Control
Tilt Lock
Back Angle Adjustment
Synchro-Tilt
Seat Height Adjustment
Back Height Adjustment
Seat Depth Adjustment
Arm Height Adjustment

With so many standard features, you might start to feel a bit overwhelmed. However, once seated in the Ergohuman it's very easy to use. We were pleasantly surprised at just how comfortable the chair was with just a few minor tweaks.

Once we raised the chair to a level that allowed feet to be planted flat and facing forward, we then adjusted the back angle and tilt tension. The mechanism itself is located underneath the chair and the controls can be easily accessed with one hand.

If you want to compute healthy, you need to adjust the chair arms to encourage effective typing angles. This is expected. The chair arms raise and lower easily and they firmly lock into place. They don't feel flimsy at all. It's easy to see and feel that this top of the line office chair is very well made.

The seat itself offers just the right amount of give. It's firm, supportive, and ready for the demands of the modern work day.

What really sets the Ergohuman apart is the back. The lumbar support is absolutely excellent and the natural contours of the frame work to cradle the back when sitting naturally. A choice of high and mid back variations are available for shoppers to choose from. We definitely preferred the high back with a headrest as it provided additional neck support.

Overally, it's hard to give the Ergohuman anything other than a 5 out of 5 star rating. These chairs are the real deal. They've stood the test of time in a very competitive market and now we know why. If you're looking for discount office chairs to outfit your interiors with, this probably isn't your best option. The Ergohuman is definitely expensive by industry standards. That said, if you have a hard time getting the back support you need, this chair is definitely worth the investment.
