Although hardware sugar doesn't sell chairs, we only thought that chairs make up a very important part of our desk setup, whether it is to keep us comfortable and productive at home or at our office. If you are no longer working from home and find that your chair at your office just isn't giving you the support you need, the power of the day, feel free to send one of our chair videos to your boss or supervisor and it may just be the ever so subtle hint needed to make going to work a little more parable. Hi, I'm Rafale from hardware sugar and I'm giving my first impressions of the C2V1, a what appears to be more modernized version of the younger sibling I reviewed last year, the C2M57. While they might look familiar from afar, the added 2 wheel lumber adjuster offers not only a good design but very practical ergonomics. The C2V1 was sent over for us to review from the good people at TW, which is the official local supplier of the C2 Chair brand. Please don't forget to subscribe to TW for making this video possible. Please note that we have not been paid or compensated for this review and that it is based purely on how comfortable my own ass and back have been. Just like my prior experience with C2, the unboxing experience is seamless and well organized and shows that they care about brand image as much as the quality of the materials they use to highlight durability. I have opened chairs within this price range in the past which were just wrapped inside a sack within the box. Here, every piece is delicately wrapped for protection. It might not be kind to the environment but C2 makes sure that the only damage which comes to the chair will be from your use and not through shipment. I always get concerned when it comes to the screws of chairs because they come in different shapes and sizes and I might misplace one or two. C2V2 has drastically changed this by only using one type of screw and only four screws to be screwed in. The thing which makes assembly even easier than it already is is always worth mentioning. Let's talk design. Metal on mesh is a fantastic combination. Metal is hard and sturdy while mesh is breathable and flexible. The combination of both creates the appearance of both long lasting build quality and comfort for long hours of work. Metal is also an easy way to add a more premium look. This is the reason why flagship cell phones have long ditch plastic cases and insist on aluminum finishes. The V1 on first glance is a statement piece to the uninitiated chair of Ficionado. If your company is looking to finish a conference room to impress guests without breaking the bank then the V1 is quite a looker because it sparkles in the right places. It is also sculpted to make it look like and trace the spinal column of a person. This is your first time watching on of our chair videos I've mentioned before that people's backs are in straight and that a good chair is meant to curve around the points in your back which jut out. This is why good lumbar support allows the user to adjust how forward or backward it is. No one's body is the same thus the need for as much customizability as possible so as to afford everyone a chance to dial in what is comfortable for them. One thing I am really impressed with is the lumbar support which allows the user to bring it up and down or adjust the firmness or tension all without having to stand up. The left dial is in charge of bringing it up and down while the right is in charge of the tension. I really dislike chairs which require you to stand up in order to adjust any part of the chair or worst chairs which provide lumbar support but no real way of adjusting it. Does you have to hope for the best that you are instantly comfortable with what you have otherwise you are screwed? I am using my roller blade caster wheels and not the wheels which came with the V1 because I am particular about protecting my floor. I'll leave a link in the video description above. For those of you who work at the office you won't be damaging tiles or wood flooring if you get these caster wheels. I love them to death. I have actually already bought three sets to go with my other office furniture. I have been using the V1 for close to two weeks now and I can tell that this is meant to be superior to the C157 through functionality. Looks and of course price. There is one thing that is bothering me however but I will save it for my full review so as to offer the V1 a chance to naturally rectify itself. If you saw my Herman Miller Aeron chair review I complained of an extremely painful back for close to three days. That chair now costs close to 100,000 pesos and if a chair like that requires time for my back to conform to it it is only fitting that a chair in the 17,000 peso price range is given the same opportunity. In my full review I'll give a head to head comparison with the C157 for those who are having difficulty in choosing between the two of them. Regardless however I want to point out that C2 has both a real and perceived quality to them which I am ready to stand by. I'm not saying they never break but they are indeed a safe investment because they aren't too expensive yet provide an overall much long lasting quality for what you pay for. In fact the chair I first reviewed on this channel, the Ethan, isn't being sold anymore online or at least the seller that was selling it isn't around anymore. See who made it big during the pandemic and is still a powerful ergonomic contender. Let me know in the comment section down below what chairs you want us to review.
