HBADA E3 Pro Ergonomic Chair Review

HBADA E3 Pro Ergonomic Office Chair It wasn’t just made for a moment. Oh, it’s designed to provide long-term comfort and support, whether you’re working or in the game – of course, it’s still good at those little sitting. After all, “Sit well and stay healthy” is Hbada’s mantra.

The E3 Pro, released in September 2021, originally cost $709.99, but there was something that appears to be a permanent cut to the more comfortable $509.99 price. This chair may seem like a decadent cost, but unlike many other so-called “ergonomic” chairs, it offers both decent lumbar support and a great footrest. It’s even coming to pink! That alone isn’t enough to win spots with the best gaming chair guide, but it won’t combine with all the other great features.

This is not the highest tier of Hbada office chairs. That honor will be donated to E3 Ultra. However, despite the price gap of $664.99 and the notable difference between the two is very subtle. The main difference is that the E3 Ultra has a 360° mechanical armrest instead of a 6D armrest. But other than that, both chairs have an “automatic gravity sensing chassis” and a highly elastic cushion (both of course are very comfortable). The E3 Pro can check almost all of the same box, but the price tag is never too high.

specification

assembly

The Hbada E3 ergonomic office chair was waiting at my doorstep after returning from a very rainy trip to Greece. It arrived in a wonderful form. It was neatly packaged with lots of bubble wrap and small boxes to keep each piece safe and secure. The screws were thoughtfully sorted into labeled packets. Each type was assigned a character. The command booklet is hidden inside a smooth black envelope, adding an incredibly elegant touch and giving a signature. The materials used felt good quality felt. So far, this chair has been a massive thumb.

This chair was easy to assemble. However, it comes with a hexadecimal key and not too long for build, and I abandoned this and switched to the driver. This is because the HEX key didn’t do the job efficiently. It’s a shame the E3 Pro didn’t do the same thing compared to the Sihoo S300 with gloves and T-Tyrene (read my Sihoo S300 ergonomic chair review for my full thoughts) – especially since it’s more expensive than the S300.

After switching to drivers, the build was easier. Nonetheless, I was very pleased with the grooves in the footrest that allowed the screw to fit perfectly. Another satisfying moment was when the wheels clicked seamlessly. The bolts come with split ring washers to ensure that the bolts do not loosen.

However, the assembly process was not without bumps on the road. In a few steps, ask to remove some of the bolts and then fix them later. I’ll ask you a question. Why don’t you label the vault and add it to the packet? We also spent a little time searching for pieces in hydraulic boxes. This didn’t look like a logical place, so I caught me off guard for a minute.

design

The E3 Pro resembles many other chairs on the market. It reminds me of the Doro C300 (and I’m writing a Sihoo Doro C300 Ergonomic Office Chair Review if you want more details). Both have mesh sheets and back, and have similar shapes. The E3 looks modern if it’s a little messy. Available in three different colors: black, gray and pink. Sadly, I couldn’t test the pink version. Its design is very versatile and looks great in most settings, both at home and in the business.

However, many factors set this chair apart from the rest of the other chairs, most notably the rest of the feet. It slides down and unfolds from under the seat, ensuring many different leg positions. This means you don’t need any further sitting style like a footstool, and you glide back under the chair, so the chair and the space around it are neatly organized.

The armrests are not that successful. They rise wonderfully high, but don’t go too low. In other words, it may not slip under every desk.

This seat cushion mesh is made from a combination of “nylon and thread” with “16.5% breathable mesh.” This means that the breathability gap covers a total of 16.5% of the surface. This breathability is perfect for keeping you comfortable and cool even in the summer. The mesh is elastic and comfortable. However, if you’re wearing shorts or someone who doesn’t wear pants for virtual work meetings (my boss never knows), it won’t be as smooth as a fabric or faux leather cover.

Another drawback of mesh is that dust tends to accumulate under the seat frame and base. This is not just about sitting on the surface of the seat that is easy to clean. It’s not too difficult to reach underneath and clean it, but it’s a slight inconvenience compared to vacuuming the top of the seat.

Features

This chair doesn’t lack clever features. The so-called “gravity sensing chassis” technology corresponds to the ability to recline when the chair tilts backwards and tilts the seat. The maximum weight rating is 300 pounds and works with a wide range of sitters. As someone who literally can’t sit still, this feature is a big thumb. I can assure you, I was sitting in every possible position on this chair, and overall, no complaints from me. Although the cross leg is my favorite position.

It has a T-shaped support system that supports the neck, waist and shoulders, allowing for painless extension times. Three-zone elastic lumbar support with 8-way adjustable wraparound waist support and floating wings rotates 40 degrees internally and externally. It has 4 degree lumbar support with 1 inch front/back adjustment and 1.6 inch up/down adjustment. When I say it’s designed to fit your body, I mean it!

There is also a 4D twin shaft adjustable headrest. The frame rotates 70 degrees, and the headrest tilts to rotate to 70 degrees. It can be adjusted up and down by 1.8 inches and can be moved 2.2 inches forward or rearward. No matter how you sit in this chair, you can adjust the headrest to provide the most effective neck support.

I’ve already mentioned the support of the 6D mechanical armrests for arm and shoulder relaxation, which is great, but not in a low setting. Can be moved 1.2 inches forward or forward. (Hmm, but not left to right.) The rest of the product has a flip-up function and tilt adjustment. I don’t know why I need this feature, but this chair has it! Is it better to want something and not have fans and sloping fans than to want something and not want it?

This chair accommodates different leg lengths with adjustable seat depths, providing a 140 degree drop. This can be fixed to multiple different degrees by pulling the larger lever of the two levers back and forth. This office chair has an SGS-4 gas cylinder used for the gas lift mechanism. There are countless benefits of HBADA using an SGS-4 gas cylinder. First, SGS is a globally recognized testing and certification company. In other words, it passed strict safety tests. Secondly, it has smooth and quiet height adjustment, and lastly, this helps durability and provides less wear and tear than other mechanisms.

performance

It has been said that he is sitting like a gremlin from the other half… he rests his chest on top of the keyboard. Or I mess with my weight and shift. I wake up a lot from my desk. I basically can’t stay in one place for long. Everything about this chair can sit down what I want to do, but I can get the waist support I desperately need.

When Hbada argues that the chair adapts to changes in user weight and posture, I have to agree. That being said, you may find that if you dramatically change your stance, you will have to adjust the headrest, armrest, etc. However, these adaptive features allow me to sit in this chair for a long time and believe in me.

Don’t forget the footrest too. This is a game changer and sets it apart from other similar chairs on the market. The footrest is very accessible. All day I found myself bringing out my footrest and putting it back (as I said, I’m not sitting still). You don’t even have to stand up to take or put your footrest home. And boy, Footrest opens a whole new world of ways to sit. Once, I tilted my chair all the way, put my mouse on the armrest and the keyboard on my lap, working at a solid time. If that exists, I think I could give me this year’s Sitting Innovation Award.

Alternatives

Final Verdict

The HBADA E3 Pro Ergonomic Office chair offers exceptional comfort, adjustment and support, making it an outstanding choice for many years of sessions, including work, gaming, relaxation and more. I sometimes choose to sit in this chair besides the fact that it is comfortable.

Importantly, adaptive lumbar support, adjustable headrests and retractable footrests all feel truly convenient and add a huge amount of flexibility while still maintaining a vast amount of refined and modern design, even if you secretly want to test the pink version while increasing the enormous amount of flexibility.

The assembly has some small quirks and the chair may gather dust, but it includes the overall ergonomic adaptability, footrest, and its smooth reclining mechanism all combines to make it a truly impressive chair. While it won’t be cheaper, this chair offers a reasonable, high-value, customizable seat shipping experience when set up against a competitor.
