In a recent review published by CreativeBloq, writer Beren Neale takes a deep dive into the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro, offering an honest and insightful look at this upgraded ergonomic chair. While Neale confesses to a somewhat “weird relationship” with Sihoo chairs due to their aesthetics and assembly demands, his verdict on the C300 Pro is ultimately glowing — particularly when it comes to comfort, value, and adjustability.
First Impressions: From Awkward to Awesome
Neale opens his review with a familiar feeling for many who’ve encountered Sihoo chairs: skepticism. The Doro C300 Pro, much like its siblings, doesn’t impress at first glance — especially with what he describes as a not-so-pretty design and the “age-long” assembly process. However, his opinion quickly shifts after spending some time fine-tuning the chair’s numerous settings. Within ten minutes, the initial discomfort gave way to surprising comfort and support.
Ergonomics that Evolve with You
According to Neale, one of the standout qualities of the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro is its adaptability. With multiple adjustment points — including a flexible headrest, armrests with wide-ranging mobility, and dynamic lumbar support — the chair transforms based on your body and posture needs.
“All this, and more, are totally adjustable, and within 5 minutes things were a lot more comfortable. Within 10, I had a really supportive, comfortable chair under me,” Neale writes.
He’s particularly fond of the lumbar support, praising its ability to cradle the lower back in a natural S-curve rather than forcing it into rigid alignment. Unlike some chairs with stiff or intrusive backrests, the Doro C300 Pro offers gentle, consistent support that encourages healthy posture without discomfort.
Mesh Materials: Breathable and Comfortable
The Doro C300 Pro uses breathable mesh for both the backrest and seat, a feature Neale appreciates for its springy support and ventilation. While it might not match the plushness of leather, he notes the mesh wins when it comes to long-term sitting comfort — especially during warmer days when airflow matters most.

Armrest Excellence
One of Neale’s favorite features — and one he admits to possibly overemphasizing — is the armrest system. For the Doro C300 Pro, this isn’t just a minor detail. The 6D coordinated armrests can move up, down, forward, back, tilt, and even laterally inward and outward, allowing users to find the perfect position for desk work or relaxation.
“They feed into how your arms sit on the desk, and how much you can freely move your arms around while at the desk – both super important in good ergonomic, healthy sitting.”
For creative professionals or anyone who spends hours at a desk, this added flexibility can be a game-changer.
Assembly: The One Caveat
While the Doro C300 Pro shines in functionality, Neale doesn’t gloss over its assembly challenges. Like many Sihoo chairs, putting it together can be a bit of a chore — typically taking 30 to 40 minutes. He notes that this is par for the course with Sihoo products and a reasonable trade-off for the value offered, especially when compared to more expensive models that arrive fully assembled.
Final Verdict: Worth Your Time (Especially on Sale)
Beren Neale’s review of the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro paints the picture of a best office chair that grows on you — one that may not wow on day one, but rewards those who take the time to adjust it properly. With top-tier ergonomics, highly customizable features, and excellent armrests, it’s a chair that delivers long-term comfort and support.
His parting thought? If you’re willing to put in a little effort to assemble it and dial in the settings, the Sihoo Doro C300 Pro absolutely deserves a place in your workspace — especially when you can snag it during a discount.
