Ikea Markus new version 16 months later review - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nuCVnJSjrdbXlX0.html Your one click on the SUBSCRIBE button can bring joy to a humble soul and mean the world to me. Thank you for your support!

Probably the most accurate thumbnail comment ever. Wanted to know if the Markus was a good long term chair and this is perfect. Thanks.

I just made a research about Markus and probably found solution to your squeaking problem. You have to unscrew seat from mechanism then oil mechanism.

super ti je test, hvala!

Thank you for this review, I have the same height, and decided to choose this chair among others because of your video - and I'm satisfied, overall the chair is really good. It's not easy to find a chair of decent quality by acceptable price in my country. On the other hand, my days of sitting with a bare bottom came to an end, because of the chair`s material =)

Hi, thanks for the review after long time. Can you tell me if the seat has form, i mean like a curvature from side to side? Or it is straight? I just bought one and i see when i cross with my hand that is thinner in the middle. Is that right or mine is faulty? Thank you

Just returned from IKEA. Tried all ergonomic chairs. Marcus was the most cosy but not as cosy as people describe it. Just ok. And I am a 70kg man… The lumbar is very aggressive. But from what I read, it can be removed. The dealbreaker for me, was the arm rest. My forearms felt pain in the first minute I rested them on these arms. By far the worst I ever tried. Even my 60 euro chair, has much more comfortable arms.

My Markus is about 6 years old now, it creaks a lot too. I'm 98kg and my seat cushion is flattened and hard now. Wanting to upgrade... I recently bought 2 chairs and returned them both (I must be picky). I've decided to just buy a Markus again, that will last another 4 years or something. I should notice a big difference with the cushion. Can't remember how long it lasted with my first one though.

when it started making noise why did`t you claimed the warranty?, they should have fixed it i think it has 10 years warranty.

I'm actually looking for a new chair because my current chair makes similar noises to yours in this video, but maybe even worse. It's so irritating. Probably will get the Markus though since it's cheap and seems durable if it holds up 4-6 years.

Nice review. One question, from what material is made the arm rest of the chair? I went to Ikea and saw that the arm rest is made of rubber and I don't know if it will get scratched easily..

How high can you adjust the seat height?

Seat quality still good? I am aware of quality of seat, because there is cheap material...

If you're able to remove the piston, spray some lubricant on it. I spent the last 2 days trying to fix it and that was my problem. It's basically normal now. Search for video on how to remove piston. Needs strength. I used an adjustable wrench, squeeze like crazy and twist. Maybe a few smashes with a big hammer too lol. But once it's out, you see its rusting a bit, so just spray some good lubricant and you're good. My problem now is the fake leather on headrest is flaking off. If i fix that i think i'm good for another couple of years

So what was IKEA respond to you about 10y warranty, any updates? Btw thanks for helping deciding between Markus and Jarvfjallet

same problem after 5 year

Noises are fixable with lithium grease ... repair takes less than 15 minutes.

that chair has 10 years guarantee cant u get replacement parts from ikea?

Just reassemble it.

There is 1 thing you need, it's called WD40

its 10 years guarantee ..you can replace it with ikea for the squeaks
