“We wanted to create a chair that felt more like a human and less like an object. It’s the first and only chair to truly offer 3-dimensional back support.”

— Haworth Design Team

Awesome Chair

I received my chair about 2 weeks ago and have been loving it since! It is very comfortable to sit in for a full work day from home and the adjustability is very impressive. I also really like the high back design. At first was a bit concerned about not having a head rest but it has not been an issue, even being fairly tall at 6'1''. I am genuinely happy with the chair and can't think of anything I would like different.

Beautiful and Comfortable

We lucked out, never had sat in a Fern Digital Knit Office Chair….. it lives up to every promise made on your website

Thank-you for taking a chance! I'm glad we were able to please. Thanks for the review, we appreciate it.

Love my Fern

After some weeks with the Fern, I was wondering if I was comfortable-the bottom seemed a bit hard. I had back problems from a horrible chair prior to Fern and definitely felt better in the Fern however was still having my back pain although definitely improved. Possibly unfair to expect the Fern to fix a 2 year back problem. You know?! First let me say, my Fern is stunning. It is so substantial in weight and the construction just seems so solid. Anyways, I am a "percher" I learned. I sit at the edge. It’s not great for me but I discovered that the so many adjustments allow me to play around throughout the day which I really like. Since I was a bit unsure, I took a a visit to the showroom, where the wonderful people, helped me check out all the chairs again and to recognize that it really had the best adjustments of all the chairs and since then I am supremely happy. I sometimes use a little faux sheepskin type of rug on the seat but sometimes actually have come to prefer the firm seat. I go back and forth and I am perfectly comfortable and the lean back is absolutely fabulous You could just stretch out and go to sleep, if you could and keep your job. Being able to shift the forward tilt which is more prominent than their other chars and mixing it with changing the seat adjustments etc. really gives so many options. A new faux glass mat will make it glide beautifully on the rug as without that it is a bit sluggish for my exercise free body. It has been a bit of a process. But I love my fern. The faux glass matt on amazon is beautiful and affordable. Also, the online sales person – Sue- and others were so incredibly helpful, truly looking at what might work best for me. So, I guess I like my fern.

Hello Bonnie! What an amazing review! Thank-you for the feedback, we take everything we're told to heart. I will make sure to let the WHOLE team know they did a great job. Have an amazing day!

Fabulous chair

One of the best things about this chair was ordering it with Haworth’s Jonathan Beelen, an exceptional person who’s completely focused on your having a good customer experience. The chair itself feels great. It’s one of limited selection of chairs around that has a forward tilt, which is great to use from time to time. I saw another review about the arms moving around. Mine don’t. They go everywhere I want them to. The headrest that comes with some versions isn’t movable but it fits my head perfectly for the times I want to relax and tilt back a bit. I’m 5’3”. The tilt lock can be adjusted to spring back or to recline easily. I didn’t order the lumbar support and don’t think it’s important for this particular chair. When comparing this chair to Herman Miller and a lot of other ergonomic high end chairs, it’s by far the best chair. I tried the less expensive ones, really resisting spending the money, but none worked. And what chair will I sit in more than any other in the house but my office chair?

Most chairs aren’t short enough for my height. Herman Miller does have one with a smaller frame but the mesh bottom eventually cuts off circulation in the legs, I hear. The Fern is much more comfortable over time.

It’s also nice to choose fabrics, if you go with the custom version. I choose fabrics that my cat wouldn’t cut up. The yellow seat makes me happy.

It’s my forever chair.

Hello Aimee, What wonderful feedback! We're so glad you are happy with your new Fern. I'll be sure to let Johnathan know he did a good job; I know he works hard to make our customers happy. Thanks for the review!

Hefty performance at a hefty price.

Yes, this chair is expensive. Yes, your wallet will not like it. Yes, it's not for everyone. More importantly - Yes, it's worth it.

Seriously, if you work from home or simply spend a lot of time sitting at a desk, you need this chair! My back pain from long-term sessions is seriously GONE. The wool seat is a little firm at first, however, after a few hours of being sat on and getting some air to breathe, it softens up to a rather soft yet still firm seat! It isn't painful in any way and I absolutely love the look and feel of it, even with direct skin contact.

The knit back is GORGEOUS. Pictures really don't do it justice. It's very soft and doesn't totally trap heat like a lot of leather chairs will. It has quite a bit of cushion and, even without the lumbar support, it's very supportive around the lumbar area. I would say you only need to order it if you're on the heavier side and genuinely need it for your posture.

The only thing I'd recommend when considering this chair is your height - I'm 6'0" and my head doesn't exactly rest on the back very comfortably. Fortunately, when I inquired about this issue with the customer support, the team at Haworth (Sue and Jonathan) were AMAZING and took quite a bit of time to help me custom build a new chair that still has the same specifications and also include a headrest!

Seriously, I can't recommend the Fern more.

Hi Tim, What a great review! Sue and Jonathan are great, and I'm glad they were able to help you build your perfect chair. Thank-you for your feedback, and happy sitting!
