Friends who follow me may know that my girlfriend and I are both computer learners, usually code and debug sit for hours without moving, modern young people do not like sports very much, over time will inevitably have some cervical spine problems. In the first half of the year, I went to the hospital for an examination because of neck pain, and found that the physiological curvature of the cervical spine had become straighter, and recently my girlfriend also felt that her neck was uncomfortable, and after talking to me, I suggested that she quickly replace the ordinary chair she is using now and buy an ergonomic chair that can support the spine and cervical spine.
The shopping habits of boys and girls are very different, boys generally pursue cost performance, while girls pay attention to many details. For example, when her girlfriend buys a chair, she will choose those with more adjustable parts, adjustable seat cushions, adjustable back elasticity and so on. After watching for a long time, I finally bought the model of Ergoup's "butterfly", although the price exceeded the budget, but it perfectly matched her needs, the chair body was adjustable in many places, and the high and low pitch adjustment paddles were under the armrest, which was very convenient to use.
Compared with ordinary chairs, ergonomic chairs can not only give better support to the cervical spine, but also lie down directly when tired, and take a nap directly when the code is tired, not too comfortable! The price of this double 11 is 3680 yuan, I think it is quite worth the money, let's introduce it to you.
You spectrum in the field of ergonomic furniture has a certain status, a few years ago I saw a friend buy his chair, I bought this butterfly is a spectrum of high-end product line, quality should be no problem. The packaging box of the chair is very large, weighing about thirty kilograms, fortunately, the courier brother is responsible for moving into the house, otherwise the girl will definitely not be able to move alone.
The protection measures in the box are well done, there are corrugated cardboard and bubble paper between each part, and there is also cushioning on the four walls and the top bottom, which effectively prevents bump damage during transportation.
The cushion and back of this chair are pure mesh design, which I like very much, for people who need to sit for a long time, the mesh will be more breathable, and the butt will not be stuffy. Most ergonomic chairs need to assemble scattered parts by themselves, and the butterfly's back, cushion and armrests are integrated, and there are a few parts that need to be done by themselves, which can be said to be simple installation, and the girlfriend said that he can do it alone.
The frame structure of the chair is a bionic design derived from butterfly wings, but it is not only imitating the shape, but also has certain practical value, you can see that the metal frame has multiple points of support on a circle of frames on the back of the chair, which can provide better stability for the back of the chair, not easy to twist and deform, which is also a combination of ergonomics and natural aesthetics.
The tripod part is made of aluminum alloy, 70cm in diameter, which is relatively large, and stiffeners are set every other section inside the tripod to increase its strength. The tripod is the load-bearing part of the chair, so quality is very important, if the budget is enough, everyone tries to choose a chair with a metal tripod, metal is stronger and more stable than nylon, of course, it is more expensive.
The wheel is a silent universal wheel made of PU material, not an ordinary hard plastic, which has a certain elasticity to the touch and should not scratch the floor. A sound muffling sleeve is installed at the junction of the wheel, and after wearing the silencer sleeve into the tripod, the metal collision between the wheel and the tripod is attenuated, effectively eliminating the noise.
The gas lift is used in South Korea Sanhong four-level air pressure rod, through TUV and SGS certification, quality and safety is guaranteed.
Put the gas lift in the middle of the tripod, then insert it into the hole of the chassis, and then quickly install the headrest, and the entire installation work is completed, the process can be said to be very simple, indeed a fool-like installation.
The shape of the butterfly is very good-looking, the frame is made of polished aluminum alloy, the chair body is full of a large number of streamlined designs, plus the metallic gloss, it looks very high-class. Unlike ordinary office chairs, ergonomic chairs will have many adjustable parts to adapt to different needs to fully reflect the characteristics of "ergonomics". There are 8 adjustable butterflies, listed from top to bottom, which are headrest height/pitch/front and rear, seat back pitch, lumbar rest, armrest rotation/height, and seat height. After lowering the seat to a minimum, the soles of the feet of the girlfriend, who is 158 tall, can completely land on the ground, and the girl can refer to it.
The butterfly's backrest and headrest are 3D three-dimensional structures, which can give good support to the waist and head.
The adjustable lumbar has a total of 5 adjustable steps up and down, with a total stroke of 5cm, which accurately matches people of different body shapes, and girls with small bodies like my girlfriend can also find a suitable support position. To rely on comfort or not is also related to the material, the foam it uses is moderate density and hard, both supportive and elastic, in fact, soft but not good, too soft to lose the meaning of support.
The width of the headrest of a chair is something I value more when choosing a chair this time, because my own chair headrest is not wide before, and I dare not move my head when I lie down, and I always feel restrained. The butterfly's headrest is very wide and comfortable to lean on. At the same time, it can also be adjusted up and down 5cm, front and rear 5cm, and pitch 45°, in short, it can be well adapted to the head.
After sitting in this chair, whether it is studying upright or Ge You lying down, it is very comfortable, the burden on the waist and cervical spine is reduced, and it will not be very tired after sitting for a long time.
I have to say that he has a very large recline angle, the butterfly can do 15 gears/160° back, I feel that after putting it to the end, it is close to lying flat, it is simply a nap artifact. When working, I generally sit upright, watch dramas and movies, lie back slightly, lie down directly when tired, and switch seamlessly. When the back of the chair is put down, the butterfly's synchronous gliding technology can keep the cushion still and the feet can still land on the ground, while when the other chair is leaned back, the cushion will be cocked and the legs will be lifted.
The most noteworthy thing is that the butterfly's two adjustment paddles are not arranged under the seat cushion like a regular chair, but are set at the armrest, the left hand side is pitch adjustment, the right hand side is high and low adjustment, it is simply too convenient to use, which is the main reason why I finally bought it.
Press the paddle on the left hand side, the back of the chair is locked on its back, and then you can lie back and press it again to lock it in the current position.
There is nothing new in terms of high and low adjustment, but the lowering and raising of this air pressure rod are very smooth and uniform speed, and will not bounce up or fall violently, making it safer and more reassuring to use.
These operations are achieved through internal wire control, and the steel wire at the handrail paddle is linked to the mechanism in the chassis, which is very smooth and has no sense of blockage.
The patented aluminum alloy by-wire chassis hides the traces in it, so there are no unnecessary traces when viewed from the outside, and the overall is relatively simple and refreshing.
The seat cushion integrates the three adjustable functions of cushion front and rear adjustment, seat cushion sliding force adjustment, and seat back elastic adjustment, which is another big reason why I bought this chair, because it may be difficult for girls with a small weight to resist the elasticity of the back of the chair by their own weight, resulting in no way to lie back, most of the chair's elastic adjustment knobs are directly below the bottom of the chair, and it is more troublesome to squat down, and the butterfly's back elastic adjustment lever is on the side, and it can be operated while sitting.
The switch that slides front and rear of the seat cushion is set within easy reach next to the butt, and the rebound is spring-actuated rather than a pure slide rail with transmission. It can be seen that after the seat cushion moves forward, the back of the chair will be synchronized at a small angle to lean back, because the butt moves forward, the back will naturally slide down for a distance, if the back is still vertical, the lumbar spine will be subjected to very large stress, and the back of the chair can be synchronized back to protect the lumbar spine.
In terms of the material of the seat cushion, I saw that the product introduction said that it was a bacterium-proof DuPont mesh imported from the United States, which has good support and elasticity. In fact, in addition to the back of the chair, the support of the seat cushion is also very important, if the seat cushion supports the tail vertebrae in place, it can reduce the fatigue of the waist to a certain extent.
Compared with the sponge pad, the biggest advantage of the mesh cloth is that it is refreshing and breathable, and it will not cover the prickly heat when sitting for a long time in the summer; On the other hand, the mesh is easier to clean, the sponge pad is easy to get dirty, accidentally spilled with drinks or something is not easy to clean, and it is easy to mold over time.
After talking about the seat cushion, let's take a look at the armrests. The armrest of the butterfly is very wide, the whole arm can be put down, when playing with the moblle phone to support the elbow is too comfortable, the experience is very good, but after all, at this price, a comfortable armrest should also have. The handrail has the function of adjusting the left and right rotation and up and down height, and the left and right rotation angle is 28°, which can meet the needs of different scenarios.
There is a button in front of the pole of the armrest, and the height can be adjusted by pressing the button, and the height is divided into five steps, which can be raised by up to 6cm. It also has a circular track lifting design, when it rises to the highest position, it can return to the initial position, in short, all aspects reflect the humanization of the design.
As a domestic old engineering chair brand, the quality and actual experience of the product are indeed good, I think the chair does not need to pursue imported brands, domestic brands are also very good, spend money on the product itself rather than the brand, I think this is a more rational consumption concept. As a mid-to-high-end product, in addition to good support, butterfly also provides many convenient functions such as armrest paddles, which enhances the user experience and opens the gap with ordinary engineering chair products.
After sitting for a few days, the girlfriend gave good feedback and said that she was not as prone to neck pain as before. After the Double 11 cross-store full discount coupon, the price of the butterfly is 3680 yuan, I think this price is still proportional to the experience, it should be regarded as the best value product I bought on Double 11 this year.
