Vera Piano

This is the best long term investment of $450-$500 you can make. So many of us looking at chairs online are looking at ones we want to use everyday and every night. Be it for casual comfort or for supportive productivity. This chair is highly underrated - far BETTER than the overrated and overpriced Steelcase Amia or Leap. Don't let the 3.9 stars on Amazon reviews scare you away from this chair, some people simply are unable to be pleased and are nitpicky. The chair has one of the most comfortable bottom seats of any expensive chair you can look at. One of the problems with most gaming chairs or "ergonomic" office chairs is that the seat is too thin or too firm a material and your bottom will hurt after a short period of time. If you have a bottom that has a lot of pressure points, most other chairs are going to be painful over time. The Eurotech Vera has a thick, generously padded cushion that is not capable of bottoming out. It's not so soft that you sink in, but not so firm that you feel like you are sitting on a cheap school seat. I sleep on soft mattresses so I can't stand "firm" memory foam that feels cheap and hurts pressure points. The Eurotech Vera seat is perfectly medium. The backrest is also terrific. It may look aggressive in the low back, but it's not. It's just right. Whatever engineer designed the angle of the seat rest knew what they were doing because the low back curves in to support your low lumbar back where most people get pain from sitting in chairs. You will not get pain from sitting in this chair unless you try to sit in it like a sack of potatoes. There is more than enough room to sit with your feet crossed under you. The mesh material on the backrest is comfortable and strong. It doesn't rub your skin uncomfortably nor wear down your shirts like cheaper mesh chairs. You can sit in this chair comfortably without clothes if that's something you do. It's a high quality mesh that will last, you can feel it the moment you sit on it. The 4D adjustable armrests have a supportive foam with soft edged contours, your elbows will be fine resting on them and they are quiet. I could not stand the Steelcase arm rests, it felt like hard plastic on the elbow. The move inward and outward as well as by height. The chair also has a lightweight profile and its easy to maneuver. Before this chair, I had bought a Steelcase Amia and Leap. This chair is far superior to those chairs - at near half the price. Buy this chair, it's excellent and it does everything you need it to do.

I wanted to wait to give the chair some use before issuing my review. I had noticed in other posts the issue with creaking. I am happy to report my chair is squeak-free after four months of use. It is very comfortable, with great cushioning and back support. I was a bit worried due to the cost of the chair being much less than many other chairs I have used in the past. There have been no quality issues, and the chair has been tremendous. The biggest lesson I have learned from this chair is to be most comfortable actually requires no slouching and to be seated as far back as possible on the seat. I use this chair between 6-9 hours five days a week and have not seen the cushion get crushed or the back support tear. I highly recommend for anyone who needs a great chair and doesn't want to break the bank.

I've been in the market for a new office / studio chair for about a month now. After a lot of research, I kept coming back to the Herman Miller Aeron. It seems to be at the top of everyones list, but little did I know there was a $1500 price tag attached to it. I found this chair on a review somewhere on YouTube and was intrigued by it. I placed an order for this chair, despite purchasing a well reviewed Staples Mesh chair. Upon receiving and assembling, I returned my Staples chair within an hour of sitting in it. A few months in now - I've had the seat replaced after going through an extensive menu of who to contact on the MFG website. I initially started getting a metallic noise when shifting weight in the seat that was simply unbearable. The rep was very nice, and sent me out a replacement seat. The first replacement was defective and had a rip in it. The second was fine. The rep asked me if the sound was metallic or sounded like wood creaking. Everything was fine initially, until 2 weeks later - I started hearing a loud wooden creak noise whenever I shift weight in the chair. It seems that these are known issues and they don't exactly have it worked out. Still VERY comfortable, so I'm just going to live with it until I can find a better solution. The overall comfort is phenomenal. Helps keep you in an ergonomic posture, has a great deal of adjustments for a chair at this price point (including a seat depth adjustment) which most in this price range don't include. The comfort is AMAZING. When watching the YouTube review, they compared LOTS of office chairs at several price points, yet this one had the highest comfort rating (including Herman Miller & Steelcase). The only thing missing from this is an adjustable lumbar support system, although I feel they hit the sweet spot with where they chose to place the lumbar support (built into the backrest). I understand that if you're an office with lots of employees, you want a chair that can last from person to person and adjust to their particular comfort preferences. If you're setting up a home office, this is a chair you're going to want to have. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because its missing an adjustable lumbar support system. Aside from that, I'm 5"9 and this chair fits just PERFECT. If you're over 6" tall, I can see this chair potentially being an issue for you. Only because I have the seat depth at its maximum extension (personal preference) and that's the sweet spot for me. Just so you're aware, I spend an average of 8-10 hours a day, Mon-Sun in my desk and my back never feels fatigued sitting in this chair. If you don't want to spend the premium on a $800+ chair, this is going to hit the sweet spot. Everything was extremely simple to assemble. I'm a Graphic Designer and Music Producer, and if you're looking for the best bang for your buck, this is it.

I purchased the Eurotech Vera chair after having tried some of the ergonomic chairs from Steelcase (Leap v2 and Think V1) and Staples (Hyken). I found all those chairs, while providing excellent back and lumbar support, had extremely firm to the point of hard seating cushions that were exceptionally uncomfortable to sit in after about 15-20 minutes. After much searching, I settled on the Eurotech Vera. I previously had a Eurotech (Raynor) chair that lasted in excess of 15 but whose cushions had just flattened out and were no longer comfortable. The Vera is kind of the best of both worlds - a very comfortable mesh back chair with a lumbar curve along with a deeply padded firm seat that is comfortable for extended sitting periods. For me, the seat is a godsend as it does not inflict pain on my upper thighs and tailbone like the Steelcase or Staples chair did. I find I can sit comfortably with a nicely padded seat cushion and very nice back and lumbar support from the mesh back. Now - why the reduction from 5 to 4 stars. Simply put, the packaging on the Vera chair is abysmal. I have never seen a new product packaged so carelessly from the factory. The box itself is a very cheap, thin cardboard that is easily punctured or torn. In my case, the flaps of the box were not properly taped or secured, causing notable gaps and openings in the box. The box was so poorly packaged that the included Allen wrench was clearly poking through one of the flap openings......a bad sign. On opening the box, I was shocked to see that the assembly bolts and washers were just loosely thrown in the box. The little plastic envelope that should have secured the parts was taped to the box with the casters, but it was sealed and contained nothing in it. All the bolts were just scattered loose in the bottom of the box. I ended up missing 1 armchair bolt and the 2 hole washer to secure the chair. I did contact Eurotech Customer Service to report the missing pieces and then advised to email their parts dept. with a list of missing parts they would send out. In the interim I purchased 1 bolt and washers to secure the arm to finish the chair. In closing, the Eurotech Vera is a 5 star chair based on the design and comfort. But the packaging is the absolute worst and resulted in taking a star off for the really careless way the chair and its assembly parts was packaged.

Comparing to the perfect Herman Martin chairs pricing a thousand dollar, this chair provides less but essential functions. The back support is pretty comfortable, and adjustment on the height, arm rest, back tension can be done in simple way. With good installment, the chair can be used well and it's 1,000 dollar cheaper than Herman Miller.

I can see how the seat itself would be comfortable, but none of the adjustments are working, including the tilt, so it feels like I am being pushed forward. Very uncomfortable and in no way supporting or helping posture. Also, I am only 5'3 but without a headrest - which is apparently not sold on amazon - there is no thoracic or cervical support at all. Added bonus - the mesh backing was ripped when I opened it. Update- a couple weeks later - I hate this chair. I finally got it to adjust - with the opposite handles than what the instructions say, and it still will only lock. And every few days, it pops out of the lock position I have it reclined to and I have to try it again. also- no response from the company when I tried to reach out

In the new work-from-home world, I dreamed about a Herman Miller or Steelcase. Thought about an office furniture redistribution outlet to get a high end chair for half-price and then came across this being reviewed on BTOD. Amazon marked down the red one so I thought it was a solid deal ($340) and I wouldn't have to pick through "remanufactured" used chairs. Super disappointed when it arrived with a malfunctioning gas cylinder. Everything worked except height adjustment. The customer service lady in NY was super nice and we chatted about the pros and cons of working from home. I got the replacement part in a week and I'm totally satisfied with the chair. Deserves to be in the category above budget chairs. Can tell it's well built. Adjustment features are good enough. Cushion is solid. Back support is good. Adjustable arms are the highlight. The chair gets 4 stars but the Eurotech customer service gets 5+

Good quality Screws fit very well and assembly is a breeze... Just a comfortable and supportive chair I owned it before for a year before leaving it at my cousins house... Loving it again as I did before
