It’s a messy job, but someone has to do it
The seat material used in the FlexiSpot BS14 is fairly stiff and should provide years of comfort for a person of average weight, but with a load of up to 330 pounds, that time should be cut short. I think so. It’s not as stiff as the Vertagear PL6800 seat, but if he weighs less than 200 pounds he’ll benefit. The cushion size is large enough for most people, but if it feels too deep, one of the controls allows you to move the backrest forward.
The backrest is a good height, but you need a long torso to enjoy resting your head on the rearward slope at the top of the backrest. Her five positions of lumbar support cover a wide range and actually stick out far enough to provide support. However, your back should prefer one of these positions, as the support locks in place rather than sliding freely. If none of these locations fit exactly, you’ll need to find a workaround.
FlexiSpot doesn’t provide specs on the BS14’s maximum comfort height, but the top seat height of 46.1 inches should give you a hint. Even with maximum stretch, the seat was still a little low for me, so if you’re over 6 feet tall and have fairly long legs, you’d probably prefer a taller chair. The height restriction seems to be common to his other FlexiSpot chair designs, so be sure to keep that in mind. I’ve found this to be common in many of the gaming and ergonomic chairs I’ve tried, let alone airplane seats. If you want a comfortable fit on most chairs, BS14 is the right size.
The arm is fully adjustable in 4 directions, sliding in and out, up and down, forward and back, as well as rotating 360 degrees. The backrest recline has tension and locking controls, and his third control that pulls the backrest closer to the seat. The angle of the backrest allows you to lean forward a little, which is not only good for your typing posture, but also makes it easier to get up from the chair.
