A great look, an uncomplicated configuration process, and even a hanger to stick a coat. What can’t Flexispot OC3 do? I am sorry that the answer is: leave my back without pain after a long day of work.
The pain that appeared is not something that I immediately noticed. In fact, this is not even a kind of pain that I noticed after an hour. If you asked me what I think about the chair at this moment, I would say it’s comfortable. This is because it is, or at least at first it seems that yes.
The supple foam in the seat of my model really allows me to sink until I hit the challenging plastic underneath. What at first seemed comforting began to hurt after a few hours. And at the end of the day I didn’t want to sit anymore.
It’s sporadic for me. It is not completely excluded to finish the day of looking at my screen to work, and then start the night, looking at my screen during the game. In addition to, maybe a quick walk or transient PIT STOP to make dinner, I could continuously from one activity to another.

Cry yourself, Flexispot, for causing enough pain to stop my video games.
I should notice that the version I tried is technically Flexispot BS3, which is Flexispot OC3, but for the Great Britain region. They are the same basic chair, except for my chair in a rather destructive black motif, in which the American version is in more subdued gray.
It is irritating, the price in Great Britain is much better than the US price. $ 260 is only 200 GBP (193.36 GBP while writing). The progress of Office Star, our current choice for the best chairman of the budget office, regularly floats around USD 200, so the possibility of undercut that would be a benefit for OC3.
Once at my doors OC3/BS3 was a super uncomplicated construction. The instructions are well arranged and uncomplicated to understand. As with all chairs, it takes a second, which road is the right path when building, but it has been solved with no more than a few moments of thinking.
With just a handful of screws and screws, as well as two hexagonal keys contained, the whole chair took about twenty minutes from beginning to end. You may want to catch a friend because it is not a miniature chair, but I didn’t need him.
The BS3 model I was sitting on looks great. This is a very classic office chair with support composed of mesh material. The headquarters of my model is made of supple foam, but a more exorbitant mesh cushion is also available. The pillow itself is where the pain comes from, but instead provides a lack of cushioning. Underneath there is a challenging plastic base and this is what supports you during sinking. Initially, this level of support was quite good, but it became painful.
It is worth noting that comfort is not only rather subjective, but also that various chairs interact with your body, they will depend on the body type.
Initially, this level of support was quite good, but it quickly became painful.
I am a larger gentleman, both in terms of height and posture, so I will naturally sink in the pillow more than someone a little more miniature. For example, my partner did not notice the same pain that I had, although they also think that the chair has a rather challenging plastic bottom.
It is uncomplicated to adjust the chair, with a single lever at the bottom is used both to push the chair up and down, but also adapted. Everything is very glossy here and the distribution is convenient to utilize. I noticed that the unfolding tends to catch in specific sections, so instead of being able to set a specific distribution in the chair, you put it in position.
This means that if you feel comfortable at a very specific angle, there are chances that it will allow you to float slightly below or slightly above. This is not a particularly unique way to act, but it is worth paying attention if you like a very specific angle.
The armrests are wise, though a bit behind their competition. They do not have 4D elements that you may want, and only up and down. To move them, you need to fully press the button and then pull them up or down, which means that I have never moved them.
Thanks to the attached lumbar support for a better attitude, you can adjust it up and down to better accommodate your back. It works as intended and is uncomplicated to move, as well as convenient to bend down. Above there is the main 2D headrest, which, due to a lack of a better word, breaks to the top of the seat. I felt very much that I was doing something bad by installing it because you must undermine it to the clip, but after attaching everything is quite solid.
Thanks to this headrest, the most unique element of this office hybrid/games appears: a built -in coat hanger. Because my location is constantly flying from radiant to rainy, I used a coat hanger much more than I expected.
I never liked to hang a slightly damp coat on the back of the chair because I felt a hood on my neck. This attachment is a shapely accessory, although I do not anticipate the rest of the chairing industry.
Buy if …
✅ You need a place to hang a coat: An insertion hanger attached to the headrest is a neat miniature accessory, which, surprisingly, I used often.
✅ You want the classic look of the office: My elegant black model would look perfect in the office space, thanks to his neat appearance and material at the back.
Do not buy if …
❌ You work for full days in your office: Initially, I will hurt my rather comforting challenging sitting if I was sitting in it for over half a day.
❌ You don’t want to pay more than Great Britain: The BS3 model in Great Britain is the same as OC3 USA, but the US pays more.
I like almost everything in OC3, except for sensitivity. And unfortunately I feel that he is almost everything with a chair. If it were comfortable enough to sit (and did not ruin my attitude), I would make a particularly comfortable box on a painful chair. Given that I will spend long days working and long nights, playing games, my chair must be comfortable enough not to disturb.
The price is very solid (although better in Great Britain), it looks neat, the armrests are very stable, and the coat hanger is a neat addition that helps to stand out. About an hour after setting and sitting, I was convinced that my review would be very positive. Boy, I was wrong. A few weeks after testing, I turned back to Flexispot BS9, which I used earlier, and since then I haven’t looked back. However, I miss a coat hanger.
