Summary
Office chairs tend to come in two varieties: affordable and uncomfortable or costly and ergonomic.
With the ErgoChair Curve, I immediately took notice of how middling everything looked and felt.
But for the most part, putting the chair together was a breeze.

That can get tiresome if theyre hard to remove and replace.
There were two additional points of contention that I didnt quite understand.
The lumbar support looks and feels like it was a last-minute addition as if it was only remembered mid-design.
Autonomous ErgoChair Curve is a mid-range ergonomic office chair with a utilitarian style that overshadows creature comforts and significant adjustments.
Unlike other chairs Ive used, the Curves lumbar only adjusts in and up and down motion.
At $200 less, I knew I would have to make some concessions.
Ultimately, I was surprised by how different the two chairs were, both in style and comfort.

The Plus also formed to my body better, while the Curve had a flat stiffness to it.
The cushion may wear after a while, but thats to be expected with virtually anything fabric.
Ultimately, itsergonomic designisnt as formfitting, but it gets the job done.

The 18-degree maximum tilt does help a little to relieve the pressure of sitting for too long.
I was put off by the reduced recline, as many chairs go well above 20 degrees.
Should You Buy the Autonomous ErgoChair Curve?

Before sitting in it, it was easy to be critical of theAutonomous ErgoChair Curve.
For all that I didnt like during assembly, theres plenty to enjoy once you sit in it.
Is it the most comfortable chair Ive sat in?
However, for the price difference, the Curve is definitely an option worth considering.
I spent the better part of my weekdays sitting and wasnt any less comfortable in the Curve.
The best way to put it is that the ErgoChair Curve is functional.
