Summary

A gliding chair with a frameless mesh back; user reports so far are few but positive.

Best for

  • People who move a lot and want the seat, back and arms to follow.
  • People who stiffen in the pelvis, lower back or hips when they hold one posture, in one showroom user's view.
  • People who dislike a hard frame against the body and like a hammock-like wrap, in one showroom user's view.

Think twice if

  • You need a published user weight rating; KOKUYO does not list one.
  • You may want a headrest later; it cannot be added afterward.
  • You want many user reports before buying; there are only a few.

The trade-off

Distinctive full-body gliding, with little user evidence so far.

Value check

Sold mainly in Japan; the price shown is converted from yen.

What KOKUYO highlights

  • 3D Ultra Auto Fit

    A triple-gliding system works with a 3D hammock mesh backrest. KOKUYO says the chair synchronizes with every movement in 360 degrees.

  • 3D hammock mesh back

    The frameless mesh back wraps around you and leaves the arms free. KOKUYO says it creates a floating sensation without manual lumbar settings.

  • Triple gliding

    The seat, backrest and armrests each glide. KOKUYO says the mechanism tracks your posture and every movement, however subtle.

  • Pressure distribution

    The design supports a wider area of the body than conventional office chairs. KOKUYO says this reduces high pressure points.

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

Who it suits, who it doesn't

  • Suits users who shift posture: three video reviewers and one user said the omnidirectional seat movement suits people who change positions while working
  • Suits wider-framed users: one video reviewer noted the soft borderless edges avoid digging into larger frames
  • Less suited to tall users: one video reviewer said the headrest is positioned too low for tall users
  • Less suited to instrument players: One video reviewer said the armrests cannot move aside for accommodating larger instruments.

Topic notes

  • Comfort: Both users and all three video reviewers praised the soft, wrap-around feel and pressure distribution; one user with lower back pain felt almost no pain or stiffness during long sits, and another user found no pressure points.
  • Armrests: One user found the armrests short with no fore-aft adjustment, while two video reviewers praised them as excellent palm rests and noted they glide or fold inward to support typing.
  • Breathability: One video reviewer said the breathable mesh keeps the back cool, while one user found the armrests got sweaty quickly on a humid day.
  • Recline and tilt: One user noted the tilt is limited, and one video reviewer felt the recline angle too upright for napping.
  • Back support: One video reviewer called the lower back support and hold excellent, and one user with lower back pain reported feeling almost no lower back or hip pain on long sits.
