The IKEA Marcus chair after some time of use as an office chair becomes noisy when sitting on the chair.
Office chair making noises is common and trick will work on any office chair but the mechanism will be different on your chair most likely.
It makes creaking and squeaking noises and this is easy to fix with a Vaseline spray in the right places.
When opening the chair spray a decent amount of Vaseline - you don't want to do this often.
After spraying, assemble the chair back as it was and use it as a normal office chair for a few days.
At the beginning there might still be some noises coming out of the chair but eventually they will go away.
Spray the office chair mechanism inside at all parts that look like they are moving.
Hope this helps you.

locking compound will hold handle screws for much longer, than couple of weeks with simple tightening

i just got a ikea flintan chair and it was making dry wood cracking noise. these new ones have this thin plastic to close off the mechanic parts but it also added friction between the chair cushion and the metal frame. following your video i added tons of vaseline and it solved the problem! thanks a bunch!

Whenever you're looking into buying a new chair I'd recommend a used Haworth Improv HE. I got one for 8 bucks at a thrift store. It's the only premium chair I've owned and I love it. Night and day from my old $60-$100 office Depot chair.

WD40 is primarily a degreaser with some lubricant. Good choice to use vaseline to lubricate then

I also had problems with my arm rests, used Loctite on the screws now they are still fixed firmly after a whole year

Vaseline is a great lubricant though I have not seen it in a spray. People often use WD40 but that’s no good because it dries out.

Yeah waa thinking wd40 at first but also the smell of it doesn't go away too soon. This needs grease and in a spray it's easier.

What is another option for Vaseline Spray, which I don't believe is available in the US?

Any grease lubricant works and its much easier if it's a spray to apply it faster and in hard to reach spots.

Maybe try white lithium grease (in a spray can). Be careful of overspray though, it may stain dark furniture(?). I've always used it for garage roller door lubrication, or car roof folding mechanisms. It lasts well.

Thank you so much for your video. I have a question. I got my Markus 2 days ago, I am really satisfied with its built and everything, but it has some weird kind of "problem", the chair is wobbling, I mean I can not tell that it is wobbling too much, but I can feel it from time to time, so to say while I was trying to reach out for something on the desk etc. It happens when i tend to not to give put my weight into chair. Glad that it doesnt bend to one side, I don't have this problem, but I have this slightly wobbleness. I've uploaded a video of it. Can you tell if it's a problem or not? It's my first office chair to be honest. P.S. I've checked the screws, I screw them to a point where I can not do anything no more. Feels like you're the only person that can help because you actually understand what's happening with mechanism and plate of it + on the internet theres not too much about wobbling etc. I'll be waiting for your replies, thanks in advance
