I've been using the kroy and I sorta like it. When the backrest is locked in the upright position, there's zero play, whereas the hyken has a bit of slop. I always lock the backrest though. If you don't, the difference isn't important.

The thing I don't like about the chair is that the fabric where your butt goes is held on to the frame by some weak staples, and the fabric gives a little as the staples get ripped off the plastic frame. It's not so bad that your butt falls through the chair, but the staples that hold fabric towards the FRONT of the chair don't give out so the seat bottom ends up feeling like it's angled upwards. This creates pressure on your hamstrings which I find a bit uncomfortable.

I returned the first chair for a replacement and the second chair did the same thing.

I'm nowhere near the 275 lb weight limit, so I feel like it's a design flaw. I still kept it as I found it more comfortable than the Costco chair even with the saggy butt issue.
Hyken only works if you're 5'9" or under and skinny or average build. I generally don't recommend because unlike the Kroy, the Hyken's armrests don't go low enough to clear your resting elbows or the desk surface for most people.

The Kroy is best if you're 5'10"-6'2", but shorter folks can use it with a footrest.

Kroy or the hyken? They don't have them near me to sit on and try so looking for opinions here.

Thanks for this. Was waiting on a sale for the Dexley after sitting in one to test out this weekend.

$249 -> $139 shipped with tax.

Such a high base msrp, weird.

I got this chair last week for $119.99, and overall I like it. I'm 5'11" 200lbs, so I'm right in the sweet spot for height/weight. I keep it at the lowest height with back locked, and my thighs stay parallel to the floor.
I'm not a fan of mesh seats so I like a chair with cushion - the one in the Kroy is a bit firm for my taste, so I'm thinking about trying out the TP9000 chair. Anyone with experience with both chairs able to compare?

Would any of these work for someone around 6'4" and 250? Unfortunately not able to go test them out in person at the moment.

I'm the same height and had a question - does the lowest armrest setting keep your shoulders in a relaxed position or is it still too high? Thank you very much!

The arm rest settings go 1 - 6, 1 being the lowest. I have to put it at 3 or 4 for my elbows to rest and arms lay parallel to the floor for typing at my keyboard tray, so it probably depends on how tall your desk is as to how high the arm rests should be. Hope that helps.

Mesh chairs are a little uncomfoortable for me. I am on the shorter side so I do prefer a bit of cushion even if I can adjust the height

This does have a fabric seat, if that's what you mean.
