Steelcase Karman review

The creator finds the Steelcase Karman to be an impressive mesh ergonomic chair with an exceptionally flexible backrest and natural weight-activated recline. However, the seat lacks depth adjustment and may feel too small or firm for taller users. Additionally, the armrests feel subpar compared to other Steelcase models.

Pros

  • Flexible backrest with natural recline
  • High build quality and attractive design
  • Encourages active sitting and movement
  • Soft, premium-feeling mesh fabric

Cons

  • Lack of seat depth adjustment
  • Firm armrest pads can pinch hands
  • Seat frame edges feel firm
  • Optional lumbar support feels cheap and unnecessary
