Hbada Office Task Chair review: Price and availability
Hbada sells an upgraded model with lumbar support for around $189.
Hbada Office Task Chair review: Design and adjustability
As with most budget office chairs, there’s not a lot you can adjust on the Hbada other than raise and lower the seat; it goes from a low of 17.7 inches to 21.2 inches. However, the arms, which are not padded, can swivel upwards, so you can push it under a desk more easily when you’re not using it. The chair also has a tilt tensioner so that it doesn’t lean too far back. The Hbada’s seat is padded fabric, while the back is made of mesh, for added breathability. The Hbada’s back also tapers inwards, which gives it a more elegant look. It’s a bit more compact than the Flash Furniture office chair, so it’s better suited for smaller spaces — and people. The chair’s design — in which the back swoops upward from the sides of the chair — does make it stand out from most other budget office chairs, whose back section is supported from the rear of the seat.
Hbada Office Task Chair review: Comfort
For a budget office chair, the Hbada felt … fine. It was on a par with the Furmax Office Chair, one of the best office chairs under $100, which is to say it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t a life-changing experience, as much as you can have one in an office chair. Among chairs in its price range, I preferred the Flash Furniture Mid-Back office chair, which felt more comfortable over longer periods. I had two other coworkers try both chairs; one preferred the Hbada chair, while the other liked the Flash Furniture chair better.
Hbada Office Task Chair review: Verdict
The Hbada Office Task Chair is perfectly adequate for those who want to spend around $100 on a comfortable chair for their home office. Apart from a chair that looks a bit different from the rest, there’s not much here that you won’t find in other budget office chairs. I personally felt the Flash Furniture Mid-Back office chair, which costs about the same, was more comfortable, and I liked its design better. If you want adjustable arms, look to the Hon Exposure or the Branch Ergonomic Chair, but those models are, respectively, twice and three times as expensive. The Hbada’s main selling point is its up-swiveling armrests, which is a nice-to-have but not completely necessary feature for most.
