Summary

A $499 chair with nine adjustment points, a headrest and a lifetime warranty.

Best for

  • Buyers who want a headrest, sliding lumbar and seat depth adjustment under $500.
  • Taller sitters; the seat height starts at 18.5".
  • People who want to choose a foam or mesh seat.

Good to check first

  • The seat starts at 18.5", so shorter sitters may want a footrest.
  • Autonomous rates the chair to 300 lb.

The trade-off

Many adjustments for the price, with a higher minimum seat height than most chairs.

What Autonomous highlights

  • Nine adjustment points

    The settings cover lumbar height, seat depth, armrest position, tilt tension, recline angle and headrest. Autonomous lists nine in total.

  • Synchro-tilt mechanism

    The chair uses a Donati reclining mechanism made in Italy. It reclines through 22° and locks in five positions.

  • Sliding lumbar

    The lumbar support slides along the backrest through a 6" range. Autonomous says this lets it meet your lower back.

  • Foam or mesh seat

    The seat comes with a high-density foam cushion or a cool mesh. The backrest is breathable mesh.

As described by Autonomous on its official pages; not a Chairpedia assessment.
