HBADA P2 Ergonomic Office Chair

Well made and durable while being comfortable

I ordered this chair a month or two ago and finally had the time to assemble it. It was fairly easy to assemble. The directions could have been a little more clear but I was able to figure everything out. Once assembled, the chair is comfortable. I like that the lumbar support, head rest, and arm rests are all customizable to my body. The foot rest is ok but I doubt I would ever use it. The chair feels sturdy and is the right size for me. I feel it would work for pretty much all types of people because of how most of the key components are adjustable. The design also allows for airflow so the chair should stay cool if your space isn't air conditioned. The only reason I gave it 4 starts is that the directions could be written more clearly. The images and print are small.

The chair comes needing to be assembled in a large box that is impressively packed tight with all the parts you need to assemble the chair. It took about 45min-1hr to completely assemble the chair from start to finish and I am overall impressed with the chair. The chair materials do feel like they took their premium chair and swapped out materials to target a cheaper price point. For that reason, the metal is mostly replaced with plastic and is a little less well finished. The foam has some seams around the edges from the production process but overall the mesh feels very nice and offers a lot of support while remaining breathable. I really enjoy the ability of the chair to form to your head, neck and lumbar. The additional leg rest is also a great touch and really helps you recline back. I use this for both productivity and gaming and it is capable of both. Overall, it is great for the price offers the experience of a significant more expensive chair at a reasonably price.

I have had several office chairs with a padded cushion for sitting support with a mesh on top for ventilation. This is the first chair I've owned that was mesh only. That said, the mesh on the bottom is thicker with a different weave that provides more resistance when pressed. The balance between support and comfort is well done and the chair continues to feel comfortable even after long sessions of sitting. I was also impressed with the build quality. The base is made from cast metal. The top supports are plastic, but they did not skimp on providing a thick sturdy framework.The chair also has a lot of adjustable components, so it can be customized to fit different body types. The height adjustment is the typical pneumatic tube with a lever on the side to raise or lower the chair. The same lever is also used to lock the reclining angle at 105, 120 or 135 degrees. The back cushion can also be left unlocked to recline freely when you lean back. The front knob adjusts resistance to reclining. Other adjustments include the arm and head rests, which can be adjusted to different heights or angles.There are two features that set this chair apart from other office chairs. First, it offers a lot of lumbar support, in fact there is a large cushion just for that purpose. The center cushion can be adjusted up or down and it flexes significantly when loaded. This feature may be somewhat polarizing, everyone's back arches, but not to the same degree and there is no way to decrease how far in it projects. I have gotten used to it with time and it does encourage good sitting habits by making it hard to slouch. The second notable feature is the leg support that extends out from the bottom of the chair. If you want to take a break and lounge backward, you can pull it out then rotate the supports to cradle your legs at sitting height. This is great if you want to use the chair for watching a movie or playing video games.

I originally bought a HBADA P3 for my wife’s home office and she LOVES it, so when I had the chance to get the P2 for myself, I jumped on it. The assembly instructions weren’t as clear or straightforward as the P3, but I managed to get it together without too much trouble.I wanted this for my work setup, and I’ve got to say—even though I currently use a HM (you know the maker; see side by side photo), the P2 is way more comfortable. The adjustability is excellent—lumbar, armrests, headrest, and especially the footrest, which makes a huge difference. I’m 5'11" and about 235 lbs, and the chair fits me perfectly.Now my coworkers are a little jealous watching me recline with my feet up during breaks. While the overall quality isn’t quite on par with higher-end chairs like the HM, the comfort and functionality make this an awesome value. Solid 4 stars!
