This is the Cooler Master Ergo L, a £600 “ergonomic” chair. It’s a partial mesh design with faux leather parts and solid aluminium supports. And, if I’m being honest… I don’t like it much. Let me explain why, and talk you through it so you can decide if it’s right for you. But first, if you haven’t already, consider subscribing for more videos every Monday, Wednesday and Friday!

We have to start with it’s ergonomic shape, since it’s not only in the name, but in their slogan for it, “it’s got your back”. The shape does look like a fairly standard ergonomic chair, herman miller esque, with a slight curve to support your lower spine and a rounded base to support your thighs. Now I’m 6 foot exactly, and I don’t fit in this. I do fit on it, but the lumbar support even at it’s highest settings still isn’t quite right, and the headrest even at it’s highest setting digs into my back and barely reaches the bottom of my head. I had a few people shorter than me try it out and they reported better comfort so if you are 5ft 11” or bigger I’d give this one a pass.

Since I’ve mentioned the lumbar support, let me show you how you “adjust” that. It’s a plastic panel on a ratcheting mechanism buried in the back of the chair. You have to reach into this hole to clunk it down into the place you want, and because you have no leverage or control you will never get it level or where you actually want it. Good luck adjusting it while sat in the seat too.

It’s got a few more adjustments too, all using these little tab handles mounted on the side of the chair. The one on the right side is for height adjust which is painfully heavy so be prepared for that snapping off at some point in your ownership. The other side has 2 more, one for locking the tilt position and the other for letting the base slide backwards or forwards. I see what they were getting at with that, but because the base is shaped it made it a little less comfortable for me having it more forward and meant my lower back felt less supported too.

The tilting motion though, that ruined me. When the back rest tilts, the base tilts forward slightly instead of back meaning my lower back was fully unsupported and in a very strange and uncomfortable position. I’ve got arthritis in every joint in my body, which manifests in lower back pain a lot and can be set off fairly easily. After maybe 10 minutes of sitting in the fully reclined position I was in agony and had to lie on the floor for an hour to let the pain pass. That isn’t an issue I have on regular gaming chairs, including the Noblechairs Hero which also has lumbar support built in.

Something else the Hero has is good arm rests, they adjust in 4 dimensions, up and down, forward and back, sliding outwards and inwards, and twisting in or out. The Ergo L though, you’ve got up and down, which doesn’t go high enough for me as it leaves my elbow a few inches shy of touching it, and slides forward and backwards without a locking button meaning when you go to stand up they’ll slide around loudly, not what you want from a £600 chair. Oh and the surface, while it’s a soft touch foam, feels incredibly cheap in comparison to the noblechairs armrests.

I think that brings us nicely onto build quality. See, looking at it from the back you can see why it’s a £600 chair. It’s got solid cast aluminium, thick slabs of the stuff as the main support for the backrest, the base and the arm rests. But when you look at the head rest you are left scratching your head. That thing tilts outwards, for some reason, but because it’s just on a plastic pin it just folds backwards again immediately. The height adjust mechanism for it too it loose, plasticy and so light that when I did rest my head on it, it would drop immediately back down again. As for the mesh, I don’t mind it much except for their decision to put the faux leather in the center right along your spine, you know, the single bit of the chair you’d want mesh on to help breathe where the most heat always is.

When you get it built, which is fairly easy by the way, it looks great. You’d feel pretty justified in your purchase, right until you sit on it, you adjust the headrest and fumble for the lumbar support. It looks good, but that’s about it. If it cost £200, maybe £300 it’d be a reasonable choice for an office of people under 5’11”, but personally I couldn’t see myself using it at all as the only way I could even sit in it was with the headrest detached, and even then I couldn’t find a comfortable position in it at all. I’ll stick with my noblechairs. Of course, this is all personal preference, and you might fit this better and find it a lot more comfortable, plus it’s currently discounted to £500 but for me I’d rather recommend you a noblechair for £300 knowing you’ll definitely like it rather than what seems more like a hit or miss option in this.
