COMHOMA PU Office Chair 500lbs with Ergonomic Back & Adjustable Headrest Review
Do you work from home or remotely? Let me tell you how the COMHOMA PU Office Chair has changed my ability to comfortably work from home. Prior to the pandemic, back in 2019, my company was already paving the way for a modified work-from-home schedule. It was nice, because it saved on gas, parking, clothing and even food as it was so much easier to eat at a local downtown restaurant, rather than pack a lunch every day.
Once the pandemic hit, we were fully working from home for the next 2 years. That brought perks and complications at the same time. I saved time commuting, I saved money, but I also found myself sitting at my home office desk for more hours than I would normally be when working in the office. I still work from home full time, and for several years now, I have tried various office chairs that give me the ultimate combination of comfort and ergonomic support that my larger frame needs. My recent test has been with COMHOMA PU Office Chair that supports up to 500 lbs., has an ergonomic back and even an adjustable headrest.
Comfort is Key for Me
I have a larger frame and needed something that will support my long hours of sitting at my desk, working from home. I needed something that not only provided extra support and cushioning but also included a higher back for my tall frame. The COMHOMA PU Office Chair is the perfect fit. The oversized office chair not only supports my wider hips and waist, but it also gives me great back support. I find myself slouching over less since using the office chair.
The COMHOMEA office chair is so cushiony, it makes me never want to get up, although it is important that I get up every hour to keep the blood flowing and circulation going. The seat cushion alone is specifically designed for taller, heavier individuals, like myself. The rich-filling 6.69″ thick seat cushion is 70% thicker than typical office chair seat (3.93″). The base of the chair has a large, 27.55″ base, helping to ensure the leather chair’s stability and prevents tipping. So many times, I have fallen out of other chairs, and this one has really delivered in performance as I’ve tested that tipping ability several times with no slips, which is a huge success in my book.
Living in a warmer climate, and sitting sometimes for hours at a time, I can get extremely hot and sweaty. While I keep the air on, sometimes you just can’t escape that Florida heat and humidity. With the COMHOMA PU Office Chair, the back and seat cushion of the chair has a built-in mesh design to help me avoid sweating profusely after sitting for long periods of time. The mesh layer design on the sides of the backrest and seat cushion effectively enhances ventilation and helps to prevent the awkward ‘sweaty back’ during long time sitting hours.
Assembly is Easy
I am someone who would rather pay someone else to complete certain jobs or tasks for the matter of convenience, so I have time to do other things. At 53, I’m not the strongest or most agile person; however, when I unboxed the COMHOMA PU Office Chair, I knew within a short period of time I would be able to put this chair together myself. From start to finish, the full assembly of the COMHOMA PU Office Chair was done in about 20 minutes.
The chair comes with all of the hardware and tools needed to easily assemble it. The large 27.55″ five-star base just needs to be turned over, pop in the give wheels and add the gaslift. This controls the pressure of the chair and movement of height when accompanied by the base lever.
The next step was to place the metal plate on the bottom of the seat cushion, apply the four (4) screws using the Allen wrench provided and set to the side.
For a few moments, I felt like throwing in the towel, as I thought it would be awkward to try and hold the back rest and attach it to the seat cushion base. To my delight and surprise, they actually recommend in the installation instructions that you use the box to secure the seat cushion and install the back rest. This made completing this task easy for me and I really felt relief that I could continue on with putting the chair together by myself.
Next step was to install the arms on each side. Again, with the tools provided, it was very easy to add the arms, flip over the entire chair and place it atop of the gas-lift on the metal base below. The gas-lift cylinder allows for smooth, adjustable height of the seat. Being taller, it is the first chair I’ve had that I can comfortably sit in and not have my knees hitting the bottom of my desk, or being so low to the floor, I’m stretching to type on my keyboard.
I was finally ready to give my new chair a test drive. I sat in it in the middle of my living room and gave it a few spins around. I didn’t tilt or tip in any way. The feeling of accomplishment after putting the chair together was exciting. Sometimes, the small victories such as this mean so much, especially when you have limited mobility.
Fits Everyday Needs
Working from home has its pros and cons. I enjoy being able to have the ability to spend time at home with my pets, complete simply chores during lunch or break times, and saving money by not having to pay to commute, fill the gas tank, and maintain a business casual wardrobe. The cons are I miss the contact and camaraderie of my coworkers that I sat beside for over 20 years. I now consider my pets as my daily coworkers. Do I talk to them like they are humans? Absolutely!
The COMHOMA PU Office Chair easily holds my larger frame with comfort and has really changed my mindset of sitting for long hours at a time. I no longer have an achy back or shoulders from lack of support. The armrests are a perfect height for me. Since putting this together, I couldn’t be happier with my choice of this chair.
Take Aways
As a plus-sized person, one can experience discomfort and anxiety when trying to find products that fit our needs. From clothing to furniture, these are challenges that many people face every day. The COMHOMA PU Office Chair 500lbs with Ergonomic Back & Adjustable Headrest CH533 offers the security of comfort and functionality for larger, taller people. It also offers peace of mind with the simplicity of assembling and navigating through it to get the completed piece.

I so like that this chair has an Ergonomic Back that is important to me.
This was such a relatable read because the “WFH perks + my back is begging for help” struggle is sooo real. I love that you got super specific about what actually worked (the cushion thickness, mesh airflow, and the no-tipping base), and the assembly play-by-play made it feel way less intimidating too. 🙌
I love that this office chair is on wheels.
This looks really comfy! I am at my computer a lot during the day, so I understand the importance of a good chair!
I like the Adjustable Headrest that is cool.
I like the arm rests on this chair.

I’d love a work from home job but I’m terrified of possibly sitting in a desk for long periods of time. I’ll keep this chair in mind. I currently use my laptop and lay in bed while working.
I am all about easy assembly these days and I like that about this chair.
We were just in the market for new chair! I need save this and send it to my husband. Thanks for the review!
Looks very comfortable.
I have had cervical spine surgery, so I am very sensitive to ergonomically! I really need to be mindful of what kind of chair I use. This one sounds fantastic!
It looks like an amazing chair!! Unfortunately I need a chair without wheels since I accidentally slid out of my chair while on the phone with the customer! Oops!
That chair looks super comfy! It would be perfect for working for home or just doing homework. What a great ergonomic desk chair!
I like the headrest on this chair.
I’m glad to know that this chair supports plus-size users. I’ve been working from home for the past 10 years as well, and I agree that comfort should be a top priority. Thank you for sharing your review. I’m planning to buy a new chair in the coming months and will definitely consider this option.
My husband works from home every day, and he was looking for a new chair. I haven’t seen this one in our research, but I am going to show it to him since it seems like a great option!
I work from home too and really do think a good chair is a wonderful investment. This office chair sounds like it ticks all of the boxes including easy assembly. It is a great to hear that it provides enough lumbar support to stop your back from aching.
Thanks for such a thorough breakdown. Chairs like this are hard to judge online, so it helped reading about the build quality and how sturdy it feels in real use. It feels like you actually spent time sitting in it, not just unboxing it.
That thicker seat cushion sounds like such a relief for those long workdays at home. I bet the mesh panels are a lifesaver for staying cool when the humidity outside starts to get really intense.
I need this chair for my son! He plays games often, and this would be perfect for him. His birthday is coming up so I’ll have to order!
That looks like an amazing chair. I bet it’s very comfy as well. I’ll have to look in to this when I need a new one. I’m sure I’ll love this one.
That is one fancy chair and it looks so comfortable. I need to get one of these for my office.
My back has been hurting in my current chair, so I am on the hunt for a new one. This one looks perfect!
This looks like the perfect chair for me. I love the combination of softness and support. I’m on the computer a lot, so I need that.
Looks like a nice and compfy chair for the home office.
I appreciated how your review gives a clear sense of what it’s really like to use this COMHOMA chair beyond just specs, especially for those needing a big-and-tall ergonomic option that claims up to 500 lbs support. Your insight into the comfort, adjustability, and real-world feel helps set reasonable expectations for anyone considering it for home or office, since features and assembly can vary in experience. It’s the kind of hands-on take that helps people decide if this chair’s balance of comfort, support, and value fits their everyday needs.
As someone with fibromyalgia, I am always looking to how I can sit more comfortably at the computer. Between my husband and myself we have purchased three chairs for one desk. None are comfortable. This looks great with all the extras that are present.
Thank you.
THAT looks da bomb!! So much.. off to go look!
