I've been testing some of newest ergonomic IKEA office chairs for about a year now. Here's a quick comparison between the Jarvfjallet, the Hattefjall and the ever popular IKEA Markus chair.

Thanks so much for this extensive review, you commented most of the main comfort points that I wanted to know about the new Jarvälfjeffjlkf... I'll be sticking with my trusty old Markus for now, until a really comfortable chair comes along. The maximum tilt angle looks the same on both, which is not enough for me; though maybe with the seat tilt on the new one it will have a better effect.

The best way to determine which one you like best is to try them in store. For me, I found the hattefjall most comfortable and ended up buying it. The adjustable seat and the height adjustable back is what makes this perfect for me. The harder seat cushion feels like it provides me more support yet is not uncomfortable. The auto-adjustable design sets the right amount of resistance (for me). Also, it looks and feels the most well made.

@@hailgod1 To be honest, right now I'm considering returning it. I'm 5'11 230lbs. The chair itself is really comfortable. I really like the high back so I can lean all the way back and the headrest is comfortable. The major deal breaker is the arm rests. The height is fine, but because their mounted so far up towards the front of the chair, they push into the side of my legs when sitting. It forces you to sit with your legs in a more closed position. Personally I like sitting more with my legs spread and feet wider apart. After about a half hour sitting in the chair my legs hurt from the armrests digging in, and then I have to consciously make sure I have to sit with my legs closed. Removing the arm rests might be an option for you, but personally I use them all the time and can't take them off. Will probably return the chair and buy a 2nd hand Steelcase Leap.

I just picked out a Markus completely at random, before seeing this video and after reviewing your other video about best posture while sitting. I guess I'm fortunate for being a bit of a tall person with longer arms and legs since that made it pretty much perfect for me. But yeah...I can see how it'd be an issue for smaller folks. And agreed on the foam - easily the best of any other and made me completely forget leather.

Can you do a "Totaly how to not sit" in those chairs? I have a DXRacer that I want to replace and sometime I pull my legs in it just to change position, other times I lean back with my arms behind my neck, or I just let one leg hang over the side; and then it is a DXRacer I can flip it far back so I almost can rest in it. So how far can you push the relaxed sitting in those chairs. One reason I want to change is that the DXRacer looks like a monolith in my apartment.

Hi! After some time what's your take on the chair (JÄRVFJÄLLET)? Also, if you don't mind, how tall are you? I'm 1.75m (with proportional lower and upper body) and found Ikea Markus lumbar support terrible; non-adjustable hard foam. I'm considering buying this model instead. I can't know how it would fit me (in my country, Ikea has this model available only for online orders), so my only option is to hear peoples experiences... Btw, I'm a programmer, so I need the chair to be comfortable (especially for my neck and back) for loooong hours (4-18hrs a day) Have a good one!

I'm a Marcus user for over a year now and since the beginning I thought the armrests were a dealbreaker. I removed those within 10 minutes of assembly because they prevented me from getting close enough to my desk without having to lower the chair which I didn't want to do to stay in ergonomic working position. Everything else about the chair is great for me. Depth is just right and so is the height of the headrest and the stiffness of the back mesh. If they made adjustable armrests for it it will be perfect for me.

I had the same issue and also removed the arm rests. I've got the leather version and my ass keeps sliding off the seat, and I do miss the handles to push myself back. And after 3 years the dampner occasionally just falls down, need to contact IKEA for this. And something is squacking when I lean really far back, but I just saw that it's a simple lube fix. I've also replaced the rollers with inliner wheels, which won't mess up the wooden floor we have. The original wheels and the plastic floor mat was not nice.

Just watched this video to decide if I wanted to keep my MARKUS or get one of the other models. I decided to keep it but take the arm rests off :)

Does your Ikea chair have also this particular problem, that it's either super straight or bend way too far? My Ikea chair (VALLFJÄLLET) can be configured in these two ways only and it's insanely annoying.

Got Markus almost a year ago and I love it. I do wish the Markus got a bit closer to the ground, but it's still very comfortable.

Would you recommend Järvfjället to short people? I bought one, but not sure if it feels right. I'm 158 cm

i’m around the same height and was wondering this as well - did you end up keeping it? i’m worried the head rest won’t go low enough for me (152cm)

As a small person, I could cry over how many chairs I have tried, especially gaming chairs. I just sink in. Then I tried the Hattenfjäll and fell in love immediatelly. Finally a chair in which I can sit straight and am FULLY supported. It forms around all my back to the legs and just locks me into a proper working position. Also sitting relaxing on it, is possible. (Currently sitting on it crosslegged) The adjustments are awesome. Sadly the chair nowadays costs 299€. IKEA is robbing people cause 3 years back it costed 215€.

Yesterday after 30 minutes of sitting and switching betwen those chairs I decided to buy the MARKUS. In my opinion it is bettter if you prefer something more comfy, like a sofa. The JÄRVFJÄLLET is better for someone who wants it for work purposes and would need more support while sitting straight.

Can anyone offer some advice for an individual that is 5ft2 (me lol) with a small room. I have shoulder and back issues so was thinking about the new jarvfjallet but without the arm rest. Anyone the same height using the markus?

Flintan or Langfjall. Dont go for high back if short. Also the oak one pictured in this video. Try in the store for 20 mins
