Choosing the perfect office or gaming chair isn’t easy, but the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro Ergonomic Chair makes the choice simpler. The mix of comfort and style makes it ideal for the home or office, while sitting for hours at a time. I recently had the opportunity to try one to see how well it suited me and my activities.
This isn’t your typical bulky office chair. Instead, the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro has a mesh seat and back, along with a chrome base. The PU coated armrests do look a bit plain in comparison, but they’re sturdy and comfortable.
The chair comes in black and white models, so it’s easy to fit into any decor. For my review, I chose the black one. Personally, I think it looks more high-tech, especially with the mesh.
How often have you tried an office chair only to feel confined? It’s too stiff, too squishy, or doesn’t move with you. You’re forced to sit just one way, and that’s it. What I love about the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro is it’s made to move with you and adjusts to how you prefer to sit.
Prefer a more upright posture? No problem. Like to recline a little while playing games? You’re all set. The chair offers several ways to adjust it to fully customize your sitting experience: No matter how I adjusted the chair, I still had the same level of support, which impressed me.
Plus, all controls are conveniently located on the right side, just under the seat, making the settings quick to change. One problem I have with the typical leather or fabric office chairs is that they get hot. After sitting for more than eight hours, I don’t want to get up and see sweat on my chair.
The Sihoo Doro C300 Pro’s breathable mesh on both the back and seat keeps me cool the entire time I’m sitting. Plus, I have hot flashes. I need a chair that’s not going to make me even hotter.
For once, my chair actually helps me cool off faster, so that’s an unexpected, yet highly welcome perk. What’s even better is that the chair contours to my back. The triangular frame is designed to flex and contour, no matter how you move around.
I have trouble sitting perfectly still, and this chair was able to keep up with me fidgeting around, even when I dropped something and bent to pick it up. Not only does the back contour, but the headrest does as well. The curved design offers full support, reducing pressure on my neck.
In fact, I didn’t have my usual neck pain after just a few days of using the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro. Far too often, I see ergonomic chairs that focus just on the back or butt – but not both. I need full support, not just partial.
A wide W-shaped cushion gives me plenty of wiggle room and lets me stay seated for hours with no issue. Plus, an added lumbar support (also mesh) helps keep my back aligned properly, even while reclining. One thing I really didn’t expect was the Body Movement Tracking System.
Support bars near the base of the seat back keep the lumbar support in place as I move, for optimal support. I know getting your chair in a bunch of pieces and having to assemble it may not be your idea of a fun day. But it only takes about 15 minutes to assemble, and the instructions are pretty clear.
Also, all the screws, washers, etc., are labeled, so there’s no guesswork. Based on the weight (just over 55 lbs.
), I do recommend having someone help you with assembly. It’s much easier holding heavier components upside down and screwing things in place with an extra set of hands. For me, the hardest part was just aligning the seat and back with the rolling base.
While the wheels roll smoothly, the last thing you need is the base rolling away as you’re holding the heaviest part of the chair in midair. Overall, I love the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro. It’s incredibly comfortable, rolls smoothly, and gives me support where I need it.
However, I wasn’t in love with the armrests. Yes, they’re adjustable, but they move far too easily for my liking. Just when I get them adjusted the way I want, I bump one too hard with my elbow, and it’s titled upright or pushed to the side.
A better locking design for the armrests would be a wonderful improvement. And, for me, I really don’t need them to move in so many different angles. Also, the lumbar support takes some getting used to.
I know it’s supposed to offer extra support, but at first, it feels too stiff. A few adjustments to the seating position helped a lot, but it was so much stiffer than the lumbar cushion I’m used to using. If you’re looking for a versatile, ergonomic chair for the home, office, or gaming, the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro is well worth considering.
There’s even a 30-day worry-free trial, along with a three-year warranty. Grab your own Sihoo Doro C300 Pro Ergonomic Chair for just $339.99, after a discount of $360.
