Basic Computer ChairMarvinThe back remains rigid with the seat cushion so it's hard to find a comfortable position if you don't sit properly or if you spend hours on the chair. I'd highly recommend a chair that has a back that moves independently from the seat to give you the best ergonomics. If you sit on it wrong enough, you'll learn to find that you can feel a screw coming up in to the seat cushion. The recline function is nice but again, your thighs will move with your back. Picture the uppercase "L" and recline it, that's what it does to your body. If you spend hours in front of the computer you need to spend more to get a chair that moves to fit your body.3
Good choiceJackthe quality and functionality is great.5
Great chair, terrible mechanismRyanThe chair is great and has been my go to but the mechanism to hold the position of the back of the chair is terrible. It seems to get worse every time I have to replace it and not it didn't even last a year before it stopped working. Please Ikea fix the aweful design, even if it costs extra I would love to have something that doesn't die quickly if you adjust the back at all.3
5 years of abuse!KOutfitted my home office completely at IKEA including this chair. This chair has suffered abuse daily for 5 years and it still looks nearly new! The mesh keeps your back supported and breathes well. My only issue was the chair piston needs replacing (but I’m 260lbs) Recommended. 4
Good chair and worth buyingEvaGood value and quality - it has lasted in good condition after years of daily use. The back is a little high but otherwise no issues.4
Standard entry level computer chair.NickGets the job done for computer desk use and has an adjustable headrest. It does lack an adjustable lumbar, headrest and arm rest.4
Comfort top marks, cleanability don't spill!BarbThis has lasted us many years and is comfortable even for a heavier-set person. We took the arm rests off to be able to sit anyway we want. The issue is that I now have a mechanically sturdy chair and wish I could just buy a replacement seat that is not easily cleaned.4
Good quality ArminSolid, good quality and comfortable 5
Comfortable CarolynEasy to put together and lots of adjustments available5
Very good office chair GerardoI'm happy with my Markus. It replaced a brand new one from a different company that was not suitable at all, regardless of the good reviews it had. 4
Not worth the priceShih-HungThe sponge is thin. The armrests are too low. The headrest is uncomfortable when lying back. Gets more uncomfortable the longer you sit. 3

Homs office chairDerekThe Markus makes a good office chair. It took a little over an hour to assemble for a couple in their late seventies. The seat could be a little more comfortable but I am adjusting. The locking casters have not been an issue so far and provide a bit of a benefit if you have mobility issues. 4
It’s not comfortable for long hours of use.FarazCompared to gaming chairs, it's not comfortable, just after using it for a few hours my hips and back start to hurt. 2
Could be lowerJoanneI like the chair, but because I'm short, it would be nice if you could lower the seat more.4
So comfortable and rolls easilyJoanReasonably priced office chair. Very comfortable for my computer desk and rolls smoothly and easily. Took me a bit to figure out how to assemble the wheel base, as the chair does not roll unless it has weight on it. Overall, would highly recommend.5
Hard SeatHeatherI tried the store model (Halifax) and thought it was quite comfortable. Bought it, put it together, and was extremely disappointed with the lack of seat padding. It felt like I was sitting on hard plastic. Otherwise, it would be a five star chair (easy to assemble; great lumbar support). This is the second type of chair I have had to return to the Halifax store because the chair I got was an "updated" version of the floor model. 3
Great ChairChrisComfortable, high back and adjustable (height and tilt) make this a great chair.5
