I’ve been using a gaming chair I bought at Staples a few years ago. I was never really happy with it but didn’t think it would be worth it to upgrade. Well, I was wrong. FlexiSpot asked if I would like to review their new C7 Ergonomic Office Chair. I said OK and now I’m hooked. The lead image show the chair, standing desk and keyboard tray all working together.

Note: FlexiSpot sent the C7 Ergonomic Chair for review. However, this is a completely independent review. All thoughts about this item are my own.

FlexiSpot Ergonomic Office Chair C7 — On having an office chair

Having an office chair that conforms to your body verses having to make your body fit the chair is a winner. The price for this chair is less that I paid for my last office chair and is way more comfortable. I had thought getting a gaming chair would have been the answer. but it was not. This ergonomic chair is a great match with the FlexiSpot Standing Desk which I reviewed earlier this year. Best of both worlds. being able to stand while working and have your entire desk system go with you is great. But, even then, there needs to be some seated time for certain tasks or just to get your body in a different position for a while.

Here is the chair in action from the FlexiSpot folks. The chairs are customizable to your body type.

FlexiSpot Ergonomic Office Chair C7 — Assembly

Putting this chair together by myself was possible. I highly recommend the ‘phone a friend method’ to get a little help. Directions were easy enough to follow as I have found with all of the FlexiSpot products. All of the tools needed were included and there was also one extra of each size bolt. A very handy idea as I did strip one bolt by mistake because I was working by myself and it would have been difficult to find a perfect replacement.
