I've been testing some of newest ergonomic IKEA office chairs for about a year now. Here's a quick comparison between the Jarvfjallet, the Hattefjall and the ever popular IKEA Markus chair.

I'll be sticking with my trusty old Markus for now, until a really comfortable chair comes along. The maximum tilt angle looks the same on both, which is not enough for me; though maybe with the seat tilt on the new one it will have a better effect.

The best way to determine which one you like best is to try them in store. For me, I found the hattefjall most comfortable and ended up buying it. The adjustable seat and the height adjustable back is what makes this perfect for me. The harder seat cushion feels like it provides me more support yet is not uncomfortable. The auto-adjustable design sets the right amount of resistance (for me). Also, it looks and feels the most well made.

@TRD_Mike
@TRD_Mike 4 года назад
@@hailgod1 To be honest, right now I'm considering returning it. I'm 5'11 230lbs. The chair itself is really comfortable. I really like the high back so I can lean all the way back and the headrest is comfortable. The major deal breaker is the arm rests. The height is fine, but because their mounted so far up towards the front of the chair, they push into the side of my legs when sitting. It forces you to sit with your legs in a more closed position. Personally I like sitting more with my legs spread and feet wider apart. After about a half hour sitting in the chair my legs hurt from the armrests digging in, and then I have to consciously make sure I have to sit with my legs closed. Removing the arm rests might be an option for you, but personally I use them all the time and can't take them off. Will probably return the chair and buy a 2nd hand Steelcase Leap.

I guess I'm fortunate for being a bit of a tall person with longer arms and legs since that made it pretty much perfect for me. But yeah...I can see how it'd be an issue for smaller folks. And agreed on the foam - easily the best of any other and made me completely forget leather.

I'm a Marcus user for over a year now and since the beginning I thought the armrests were a dealbreaker. I removed those within 10 minutes of assembly because they prevented me from getting close enough to my desk without having to lower the chair which I didn't want to do to stay in ergonomic working position. Everything else about the chair is great for me. Depth is just right and so is the height of the headrest and the stiffness of the back mesh. If they made adjustable armrests for it it will be perfect for me.

I had the same issue and also removed the arm rests. I've got the leather version and my ass keeps sliding off the seat, and I do miss the handles to push myself back. And after 3 years the dampner occasionally just falls down, need to contact IKEA for this. And something is squacking when I lean really far back, but I just saw that it's a simple lube fix. I've also replaced the rollers with inliner wheels, which won't mess up the wooden floor we have. The original wheels and the plastic floor mat was not nice.

Can you do a "Totaly how to not sit" in those chairs? I have a DXRacer that I want to replace and sometime I pull my legs in it just to change position, other times I lean back with my arms behind my neck, or I just let one leg hang over the side; and then it is a DXRacer I can flip it far back so I almost can rest in it. So how far can you push the relaxed sitting in those chairs. One reason I want to change is that the DXRacer looks like a monolith in my apartment.

Hi! After some time what's your take on the chair (JÄRVFJÄLLET)? Also, if you don't mind, how tall are you? I'm 1.75m (with proportional lower and upper body) and found Ikea Markus lumbar support terrible; non-adjustable hard foam. I'm considering buying this model instead. I can't know how it would fit me (in my country, Ikea has this model available only for online orders), so my only option is to hear peoples experiences... Btw, I'm a programmer, so I need the chair to be comfortable (especially for my neck and back) for loooong hours (4-18hrs a day) Have a good one!
@TheBasti05
@TheBasti05 5 лет назад
I spent 2 hours at my IKEA sitting in Markus and Järvjellet. And I was so disappointed.. The Järvjellet has great features, and the backrest with lumbar support and headrest are awesome fo my 186 cm. But that seat is just horrible. Its not only way to short for anyone over 180 cm, but it also is such a thin foam that you basically sit on the wood after just 5 mins. SO I got the Markus and although I don't really like the headrest, as it should better be a neckrest, but pushes your head forward uncomfortably, the seat feels great and the reclinement is pretty good for its price... I just don't get why they couldn't make the Järv a bit better cushioned and give it a tad longer seat, than it would be perfetc for so many people. Such a missed opportunity imo!

I've been using the Markus for almost 2 years now. It's good, but in the beginning I had to adjust to the chair, and not the other way around. Specially because I'm tall and the seat doesn't go too deep

I agree. And as far as I know IKEA have no chairs with adjustable armrests. No idea why...

Having just moved out to start uni I've been using an old dining chair for the last 6 months. Horrid. Bought the hattefjall after Christmas from my home town. I had eyed it when innitially shopping for the apartment but back then it seemed expensive as hell. Thankfully the price here went down like 50€ since, so it wasn't as bad. I did try all the chairs at the store and for me it just felt the best, most of the bigger ones felt like I was drowning in them and could barely reach the headrests. Maybe I'll finally start using my new desk more often now :)

Speaking from experience you want the more dense foam as the more plush one on my old ikea chair has now worn out and i can feel the steel base.

Also to add to this the warranty will only cover; the frame and moving parts so if the material wears out or tears your SOL.

First time I heard the Markus has soft-ish or in any case malleable (because people are triggered by "soft" for poser reasons) and comfortable seat cushion. If I had known that before... Because this and the low, unadjustable armrests, followed by the low lumbar support, were the main reasons for me never quite making the jump, although I probably would have been much happier with it than with other trash. I had always heard that it was super-hard, but the direct comparison says a lot.
