Build and Materials

Full mesh back and seat. The mesh is breathable and holds its shape well. The high-back design reaches above shoulder height, which helps people who lean back during calls or reading.

The lumbar is the headliner. It adjusts in position and firmness, which is rare in this tier. The high back and adjustable headrest mean your neck and upper back get support through longer sessions.
