JÄRVFJÄLLET owner here, glad to see it's not just me having issues with this chair. Not only does the headrest cause your head to be forced into a more unneutral forward position, it also has no give at all which makes it like resting my head against a wall. I also experienced the same issue you had where one arm was a little loose (not quite as loose but still loose) as well as one was almost a quarter of an inch higher at the lowest setting than the other arm. The worst part though is the chair base itself, it starts off firm which is great but that doesn't last long. After only 4 months of use at 8-10 hours a day, I am literally sitting on the wood panel below now as the cushion has worn and did not last at all. For reference I'm 5' 9 and only weight 150-160. Feels like sitting on a school bleacher anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour of use. My sit bone is a little more prominent than others so that might be a factor, but even for the average user I feel they would experience the same issue perhaps a few more months down the line. It's a shame because it's a great looking chair and has a very nice design, but it's ruined by cheap materials. I wish I had seen more reviews first before pulling the trigger as it's definitely not worth the $300 I paid for it. It feels more like a chair aimed at casual daily use rather than long sessions of daily use.

Bought UTESPERLARE a few months ago. Overall I'm satisfied with the quality and comfort. Only downside is that after few weeks it started to creak as hell. Noticed that creak was coming from side armrests due to screws rubbing into metal threads. The more you tighten it the more it creaks. Anyway, putting some WD-40 on the screws and deep inside the backrest side threads eliminated noise completely. Probably some universal grease would be better for long time.

Does your utesperlare align? The bottom half and top half I mean. If the blue line aligns from the top to the bottom. Mine doesn't one side is outside the line while the other is inside. Also between the handle and the seat 1 has more room. And if I shake 1 of my handles I can hear a piece moving inside.

@xNaceryx Жыл бұрын

In this case I just recomend you to put some rubber washers and loctite blue on the threads. The loctite blue will keep the screws to be tightly screwed and the rubber should dampen the creaks.

Hey all, made a huge mistake here - the jarvfjallet lumbar CAN be adjusted. However, it was at the lowest setting during my testing so still too low for me but might be better for people I’d say 5’9 and taller! Chairs still way too wobbly and cheap for a nearly $300 chair - there are a lot better out there for that price!!!

I think you did not assemble it properly or you have got a defective unit. You also have given a poor approach to the intended way of use. Distance from the seat to the center of back cushion support on lowest is around 15-16cm if anyone is interested. I almost give up on buying after this review but decided to risk it.

in the video (when you complained) it is NOT in the lowest setting also, the tension for the decline works without applying force at 6'3 i love my jarvfjallet on my gaming setup.. would want a second one for my seperate home office, but i'm not sure about leather seating... sadly they stopped the version with cloth seat the new armrests indeed look a little frail compared to my original ones i've now ordered 3 different YT hyped gaming chairs between 300€ and 400€ - all sent back because they are pure trash compared to the jarvfjallet

@@Quarknjaguar I use the same chair with leather seating for 3 months now, It is fine, I use it for around 8-10h every day, no issues...seems pretty durable, no signs of the wear. But I see a wrinkles at front because I put my legs forward and extend seat forward to max so the weight is all on the edge of the seat. It flattens if I rub it, but could show a wear off in like year if I do not change how I sit. I am confident to recommend it to close friends so if that means anything.

interesting...I just got the Matchspel...but don't have any of the issues you discussed. I'm 5'9- athletic build. My shoulder sit right into the frame and do not touch the metal edges, the reclining tension is fine. I actually lifted my feet up every inch or so of reclining and it held in place with no effort on my end. I think the critical flaw part is a big miss. It's curved to support your neck, not for you to rest the back of your head on. If you adjust it to the right spot, it'll support your neck so your aren't straining it when leaning back. Unless you are going to recline to stare at the ceiling, its a moot point.

I bought the JÄRVFJÄLLET a year ago - in gunnared grey. It seems like they changed it up a bit, because my back rest pillow IS adjustable. I usually leave it at the lowest setting, because it's uncomfortable and digs into my back if I pull it upwards. I'm about 183cm / 6 feet tall. Overall I'm satisfied with the chair. I was curious to see how it compared to these newer options.

Nice video but I have to mention that: 1. In jarvfjallet the seat depth doesnt move only 1 inch as you mentioned and as you show in the video. Obviously you didnt push it that much forward, it has more distance than that. I have tried the chair in Ikea 2. In the matchspel the fact that headrest moves down the way you use it, it is normal. Headrests are not supposed to support the top of the head, they are supposed to support the neck, thats why it moves down the way you use it 3. In Jarvfjallet lumbar support is adjustable and it gets lower than that, it is not in the lower position as you say. From what I see in the video it has more distance to lower. Other than that it is a nice video, perhaps you should try to make videos with taller people as well, because each chair feels different according to the height

@Ahnestly 2 жыл бұрын

hey Antreas, I am not a light man (176 lbs) and I threw my hips forward and tried it multiple times and can't get it to move more? Maybe my chair is defective? As for the headrest, headrests should be diverse. it can be for the neck, but some people prefer it on their head! And for the Jarvfjallet, you are totally correct, but I believe it was in the lowest position. I retried it after smoeone mentioned it and even at lowest position, it's really uncomfortable for me! I think I def made some mistakes, but overall, having tested other chairs in these chairs' price point, I can safely say I'd recommend my other choices!

Nice video. Wish i saw this earlier. I just bought the jarvfjallet 2 days ago and manage to return it. I should sit on it for a longer time when i was at the show room. Overall its not a bad chair but doesnt fit to me. The cusion is abit firm, hard to sit on it for more than an hour. Also when you recline. The sit doesnt recline as well. Basically you’re putting alot of pressure on your upper butt and lower back. The back is tall which is good for me since im 6’3 but the lumbar support is bad. You can move it up n down but probably only for an inch, its useless cuz it never hit to the spot where i feel comfortable and its really stiff, more like a lumbar attack. My suggestion is that always sit on the chair for more than 20 mins in different postures if you are able to test them.

Great review, Dan. I was considering the Huvudspelare but now I will continue to look for alternatives. However I dont agree with your assessment of the self locking casters. I have an ikea chair with these and for me the logical design would have been locking (or at least semi-locking) when you sit down and unlocked when you stand up. When I am at my desk, any leaning forward and the chair tries to push away from the desk, which for me is very annoying.

Somebody has to explain to me why this self-locking mechanism even exists. Is it from the age of pirates when their ships were tilting a lot and so sadly all their office chairs rolled to the side of the ship? Because I find that the floor where I live is quite consistently flat, and chairs don't tend to move by themselves. They only move when I intend to move them, and in that case I do wish them to roll instead of having to pick up a humongous piece of furniture. 😂

@KronenbourgLetsPlaysandReviews 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for explaining in great detail. I was looking at the UTESPELARE today, and whilst on paper it sounds great, an actual visual review is far better. Because of my desk (its not a gaming desk but I game a lot), the height of the seat from the floor has to be around 43cm, otherwise I'm too high up. So searching for chairs is very limiting, and I thought this one was the one, but looks like I'm off to check your other videos :)

Hey dude, loving your videos! I've got a quick question: Im currently trying to get into chairs a bit because I'm looking for a new one and your videos have helped me quite a bit. Still I have a few remaining questions and I don't know who else to direct them at if not the expert, you. Im looking for a comfy (mesh?) chair that ships to germany and doesn't cost a fortune. I'd like to be able to rock back in it and relax. A headrest would be awesome. Any ideas on what to go for? Have you tried anything that might work for me and that you feel good recommending? Love from germany -Luca

@MeineKleineWaffe 2 жыл бұрын

I think your Järvfjället review was quite lackluster. First of all, the seat depth adjustment is a bit limited as you say. But it does help someone like me who is 6’2". I find I get good thigh support when pushing the seat all the way out, and reclining to the first stop/position after upright. The headrest is not as bad as you say. I’ve never even been close to it when sitting upright, only when reclining. Which is the wanted effect IMO. The lumbar support pad IS adjustable in height. With a good range too actually. The metal frame is not annoying at all, even if you are tall with broad shoulders like me. All in all, I’m quite happy with my fabric Järvfjället. Definitely the best office chair for the money in Norway where I’m from. I’ve had the leather version with the adjustable armrests too (the one you’re reviewing), but I hated it. The leather is just slippery and annoying. So I returned it, and went back to my white one in fabric :) I’m not trying to be rude. Just giving a different perspective on a quite good budget chair! I’m saying all this as someone who also owns an Embody btw.

@Ahnestly 2 жыл бұрын

Hey I’m totally ok with the different perspective! I def got the the lumbar support wrong. I just resat in it today and my opinion still stands and here’s why: 1. The lumbar can adjust but it’s still too tall for me. I am convinced this chair is for taller people but I didn’t bring friends to test it unfortunately! 2. I still don’t love the lumbar and headrest bc of their flat designs. It prickled my head while sitting up and the lumbar felt frustrating bc it was like I had a block in my spine since it doesn’t have that much give (I have the pleather version, might be different with fabric?) 3. My biggest gripe is still that they don’t offer back tilt ease adjustment and so you rely on self pressure. This chair really does not offer an auto-adjusting tilt mechanism so I constantly found myself straining my thighs to sit in it. I realize that maybe if you’re tall you may not have this issue but you can see when I tilt back, my heels come off the floor, putting a TON of strain on my thighs and super uncomfortable overall. To me, this was the biggest frustration. I’m gonna have some friends over next week who are 6’+. I’ll have them sit in it and Who knows, I may walk back my review in a future video!! Thanks for the different perspective and more than anything, thanks for being respectful. Really appreciate it!!!!
