Sharkoon is a brand mostly known for its PC cases and keyboards. The company does, however, produce products in a number of other categories, such as chairs. Up until now, they've focused mainly on gaming-orientated ‘bucket' style chairs with vibrant colours and ‘gamer' styling. Well, that's now changing with the release of the OfficePal C30 and C30M. These two ergonomic chairs aim to provide comfort and support whether you're hard at work or relaxing with your favourite game. I've put them through their paces to find out if they deliver…

You can buy the Sihoo Doro C300 direct from Sihoo for £369.99 HERE

Pros:

  • Modern, minimal design
  • Great Headrest
  • Good castors

Cons:

  • Flimsy armrests that move too easily
  • Only 3 back tilt adjustment settings
  • Not very comfortable

KitGuru says: For the full MSRP of £369.99, we feel that the Doro C300 falls a little short in a few areas. While it does shine in certain regards, namely the design and headrest, the restricted adjustability of the lumbar support and very few available angles on tilt adjustment leave a little to be desired. It may suit a smaller user well but for any taller users, this may not be the chair for you.

Users who spend long hours at the desk working can often find that an uncomfortable chair makes the hours drag on and potentially unearths all kinds of aches and pains in the back, neck and even the wrists. Thermaltake has an answer to this problem with its new CyberChair E500 ergonomic chair.

Thermaltake claims its new CyberChair E500 is the ideal choice for users who are required to sit for long hours, it is manufactured from permeable mesh cushioning that keeps users feeling fresh since the material is highly breathable. The back structure of the CyberChair E500 is constructed from “robust aluminium” that provides sturdy support to the human backbone.

Ergonomic features of the CyberChair E500 include a range of adjustments such as headrest height and angle adjustment, an adjustable sliding seat base with up to 30mm travel in sliding mode and seat height adjustment from 500 mm to 600 mm via a class-4 gas lift strut, as well as a wire-control mechanism with multiple locking positions for maximum comfort.

For additional relaxation, the CyberChair E500 backrest can recline from 90 to 177 degrees inclination and to relieve pressure on the user's wrists, the CyberChair E500 is equipped with multidirectional armrests that are height and width adjustable, which also help to reduce muscle strain of the forearms.

In addition to the sturdy backrest structure, the base of the CyberChair E500 is built with a five-star heavy-duty aluminium frame that measures 700mm in diameter. The base is designed to withstand loads of up to 150 kg (330 lb) and is equipped with large 3-inch wide castor wheels to offer extra stability, with quiet operation and smooth movement.

The Thermaltake CyberChair E500 is expected to be available during April 2020 in certain regions including China, Taiwan, Asia and Australia, priced around $599.99 USD.
