After less than nine weeks my Chill Chair has stopped charging and will not power on. I emailed support on 6 October and sent a follow-up on 13 October. As of 20 October I have received no acknowledgement or response. I am very disappointed with the after-sales support and hope the company will contact me to resolve the issue, however, I shouldn't have to resort to leaving a negative review to obtain a response,

This chair is awful
This chair is awful. Super uncomfortable and the “massage” function is terrible and makes your pain worse. And don’t trust the “30 day money back guarantee” unless you have room to store the original box and all packaging materials exactly as it came or they won’t give you your money back. My tempur-pedic office chair at more than half the price point is more comfortable and you can get an actual, real, massage chair at Costco cheaper than this sham of a “massage”/office chair.

Terrible experience
Terrible experience. placed an order, over 6 weeks and no delivery. Then sent for delivery after multiple complaints with company made. Placed on truck for delivery, not delivered and returned to depot, no explanation, contacted company, told they would expedite. 3 days later, no response, still at depot. I'm not convinced this isn't a scam, as any contact keeps getting kicked down the road..... I wouldn't trust the positive reviews.
Further to your reply, your courier was not responsible for the 6 weeks of delay in sending the chair. As ive stated from amex, they have advised to not withdraw the complaint until you have process the refund. If I withdraw the complaint, it is impossible to reopen and you still haven't refunded my money. With the dealings ive had, it seems foolish to trust your company to refund

1 week and they still didn't ship my order. I ask them for an update and they block me and cancel my order for no reason.
Shameful customer service.
If the owners of the company are reading this, post the screenshot of our emails so the people can see

Hi Andrew, as mentioned over the phone, you were abusive to our staff, and so we refused your business. Take care.

AVOID THIS COMPANY - The positive reviews would appear fake.
Awful experience. Even after cancelling for non-delivery, still waiting for a refund. This must be a scam company.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Lots of money for a crooked chair that they replaced with a chair with a defective massaging mechanism. It clunk every few seconds as it travels up and down the back. Provided video with sound and they claim it is normal operation. Just want my money back at this point. Customer service is terrible that it is all by email with no way to talk to anyone.

So disappointed in this chair
So disappointed in this chair. After 2 months it stopped working. Very uncomfortable for sitting long hours. Seat is hard and very uncomfortable. Massage was nice when it worked. A complete waste of money.

This Chair is Anything but Chill
I’ll start by saying that my complaints are in regard to the chair itself. Customer service was actually responsive and helpful and at the end of the day, they did give me a full refund. I'd give the chair a zero if I could. I used it for 5 days and that was enough for me.
I completely fell for the marketing of this chair—that is the one thing this company does really well. The problem is that when it comes down to it, it's all flash and zero substance. So many claims they made were simply not accurate. Let's take them one by one.
They claim that it's easy to assemble.
NOT TRUE. I'm pretty sure the assembly video that shows a woman putting it together effortlessly was edited to make it look that way! I'm relatively strong but struggled intensely trying to get the top part of the chair to slip into the seat. The weight of the chair kept pulling it backwards and it never stayed in long enough for me to put in the 3 screws. On one attempt, the top part of the chair fell on my foot, broke a toe and severely bruised the top of my dorsal region. It was incredibly painful, and I eventually had to get a neighbor to help me assemble it. In spite of the frustration of assembly, I still really wanted to like this chair.
They claim it's good quality and ergonomic.
NOT TRUE. The chair itself is rather cheap. The 'vegan leather' material feels like the type of material airline seats are made of. The flap piece that you flip back when you want to massage and flip forward when not in massage mode is cheap and awkward. in the reclining position, I actually prefer the flap flipped back but then you are laying back on rollers. The armrests are way too low and slip all over the place so easily. The seat does adjust up and down but not by much. The foot rest is cheaply made with flimsy plastic and that uncomfortable airline seat material. This chair doesn't appear built to last and for something that retails for $1400, it really should have better build quality.
In the beginning, I thought the massage part was kind of cool. The seat vibrations are pretty underwhelming. The other options aren't adjustable as far as strength goes. The only option I liked was the kneads. After a while, it stopped feeling relaxing and at times it hurt. I spent one night watching a movie in this chair (no massage, just "zero recline") and the next day I had major sciatic nerve pain. Understand I don't get sciatic nerve pain. That was when I decided I wanted to send it back and this chair was more trouble than it was worth.
They claim that they offer "hassle free" returns.
Their understanding of 'hassle free' is way different than mine. They make you send a picture of the chair before giving you a shipping label. Disassembling it is just as bad as assembling it. The seat which sat on top of the cylinder doesn't easily come out. My back got worse trying to take it apart so I ended up paying a handyman to do it. Also worth noting that I emailed CS and was sent a video (from China which is clearly where these are made) on how to disassemble. Not sure why this was not shared with me BEFORE hand. They use a pipe wrench to undo the cylinder so if you don't own one, you need to buy one, borrow one or hire a handyman like I did.
Also need to add that when I was putting it together, I noticed scratches on the cylinder and white paint marks on the base which means someone else had disassembled the chair before me. I think they basically resell chairs that are returned so don't expect you are getting a brand new chair when you buy a "new chair".
This chair is way overpriced for what it is. I got 20% off when I bought it and when I first contacted CS and told them I wasn't sure if i would keep it, they offered me another 10% as incentive to not send it back so I saved 30% all together. Still not worth it. In fact, I wouldn't take this chair if it was given to me for free.
This was truly one of the worst experiences I have ever had with a product. It caused nothing but pain and frustration and I ended up actually losing money on it. My sciatic is still inflamed from this chair and I had to make an appointment with a chiropractor.
In theory this is a great idea and that is what prompted me to order this chair but it neither functions well as an office chair, a reclining chair or a massage chair. It pretty much fails at all three.
