The Ergo3D isn’t cheap, but you get a lot of comfort for your money. In fact, Nuhaus promises that the Ergo3D is “a chair that goes beyond ergonomics and adapts to your body and your life.” In our review, we take a closer look at the specs of this ergonomic office chair and how it fits into your work-from-home lifestyle. We’ll explain the adjustment options and different color options available if you’re looking for a change from classic black, and explain why this office chair is one of the best on the market. Although it may not be suitable for people over 6 feet tall and is more expensive, it is an office chair with comfortable features that makes it worth the investment.
NOUHAUS ERGO3D ERGONOMIC: DESIGN
The brand recommends the Ergo3D ergonomic office chair for people between 5.4 and 6.1 inches tall. So, if you are tall, read our review of the La-Z-Boy Trafford Big and Tall executive office chair instead.
The Nouhaus Ergo3D ergonomic office chair features a 5-point aluminum base for added stability and two sets of blade caster wheels for smooth rolling on hard floors or carpets.
There’s also a band of breathable elast mesh fabric on the back and top to keep you cool in hot weather. Additionally, it has a sturdy iron base that secures the chair when sitting and prevents it from tipping over. In terms of style,
This chair is available in four different colors (black, grey, blue, and burgundy), but we think the all-black version is the most elegant.
The 2D Adjust headrest on the top of this chair can be easily moved up and down and can be tilted up or down with an “ergotilt” design to help maintain better neck alignment. Nouhaus also features something called Dynamic Lumbar Support. This is supported by the brand’s innovative ‘Just-For-Me’ feature, which helps the support system adapt to your body when changing positions.
4D adjustable armrest slides forward and backward, left and right, up and down, and left and right. This not only allows you to take the most comfortable position to reduce strain on your wrists and arms, but also ensures that your wrists and arms are well supported while working at your desk.
Seat heights range from 18.5 inches to 22.4 inches. This feature is powered by a hydraulic gas lift that can support weights up to 275 pounds. Our favorite feature beyond the lumbar system is called the Super Lounge Recline. This allows you to recline up to 135 degrees while sitting. Perfect for when you want to sit down and think about a difficult task.
You might be able to use the chair’s super lounge reclining feature to stretch your back, but if you want to stretch at your desk, we recommend opting for a chair yoga one.
If you’re looking for something super flexible that can be easily adjusted to your posture and desk, the Nouhaus Ergo3D is a great and competitive choice. The flexible headrest provides plenty of support and can be adjusted up or down depending on your height, making it ideal if you suffer from neck or shoulder pain.
Here are some other key benefits:
- Breathable ElastoMesh fabric to keep you cooler for longer
- Soft fabric that’s flexible beneath your body
- 3D lumbar support system to align your spine and reduce compression
- Excellent overall body support to reduce sitting pain
On the Nouhaus website, the Ergo3D ergonomic office chair is highly rated, with most reviews giving it 5 out of 5 stars. Here are the comments: “This chair is well made and easy to assemble. All screws and parts were carefully packaged and the quality of the chair is excellent.”
Conclusion:
The Nouhaus Ergo3D is one of the more responsive and supportive mesh chairs. It has its own category with an intuitive back design. Though the chair is sufficiently durable and sturdy, we can’t really refer to it as heavy duty. Because these are the chairs that are fit for big guys.
But if you are 5’5 to 6’, then you will find this very comfortable. It is made for those looking for a simple sitting solution but should be very supportive of the movement.
