After a few days, I think I've got the hang of it. I've been choosing for a long time - Anda Seat Kaiser 3 /4 size L, Razer, Herman Miller used and others. My psychological limit was 15,000 CZK. After watching a ton of videos and reading stacks of text, I decided to go with the Fractal in Mesh and a bright color. The chair surprised me unpleasantly at first when I thought I might not be able to get it home from the car, it all weighs over 30kg and the box is huge - it has no handles. The second time I was amazed to find a huge mounting poster in the package. The third time I saw the seat from underneath. It's all like a car seat and the whole profile impression is enhanced by the mesh design where everything is nicely visible. Assembly? 2x3 bolts for armrest and 2x2 bolts for backrest, everything else is just clicked in - piston and wheels. The wheels have a hollow hub design and are fantastically quiet unlike anything I have experienced. The seat slides forward to the back, if you move it to the max forward, you'll have a bit of space in front of the backrest. It ventilates beautifully. The sides provide lateral support. The Mesh hardly deforms at all under my 86kg, I feel like I'm sitting ON a chair, not IN a chair like I did with my last one. The armrests have a wonderfully comfortable material for the elbow. Forward and backward shift is without switchable lock, side shift has a button and everything is OK, rotation around the axis has a button and it is a bit harder to control. Backrest pleasantly airy, loin not quite ideal although I understand the intention. In my opinion, its presence is only known when you have it at max, otherwise the mesh doesn't flex enough to get a word in edgewise. Fancy headrest - removable via a button, slides up and down with a pull and inside is a bag of cooling gel. Overall feeling: chassis 100%, seat 90%, armrests 80%, backrest 80%, headrest 100%.

I see room for improvement in the armrests and the hip, but I still think it is hard to find competition in its price range

Fine chairs
For the price, I'd expect a tinfoil hat and vinegar

After more than half a year of use, I clearly do not recommend it.
Another case of design over function. This company should have stayed in the closets and not gotten into something they don't understand. Yeah, I guess the problem is that I'm a six foot tall, 110 pound guy, but that was one of the reasons I bought this chair, because the manufacturer said it was designed for me.
Design
Stable
Uncomfortable. The transitions between the mesh and the cover part are hard and pressing if you want to put your leg over for a moment or sit anything other than perfectly straight with your knees together.
Lumbar support. The fool who designed it made it a nice little narrow one and softened it up with a few millimeters of rubber. Totally inadequate. Unfortunately, this has the unpleasant effect of the hard edge digging into your back and pressing on your spine. So either you use the backrest and end up with chronic back pain, or you don't use it at all and slouch, which is not good either.

Fractal Design Refine really impressed me. At this price level it is in my opinion the best possible purchase. The chair combines beautiful design with sturdy construction, yet offers fully adjustable ergonomics so it doesn't matter what your height, width or personal preference is. I tried several chairs in the same price range, and either the lumbar support could not be adjusted accurately, the armrests were inappropriately far apart, or they did not fit under the table even at the lowest position. I was able to get the Refine set up exactly to my needs within minutes and now I can't imagine sitting on anything else.
Precisely packed
Easy installation
Possibility of a fully mesh version
Beautiful design from the wheels to the backrest
Robust construction and materials
Soft armrests that don't accidentally slide
Quiet wheels, chair does not squeak, buttons do not click
Large and easy-to-use buttons for settings
Comprehensive and precise setup for individual needs
The box is heavy and bulky
Harder to drive on linen or carpet

Great chair, I recommend to have someone else to transport it, it is big and heavy and the box is almost impossible to carry in one (there is nothing to hold it, I had to knock it home). Surprisingly heavy seat. But the seating for a 175cm man is perfect.
the possibility to set almost everything
beautiful wheels
hardness just right
unpacking this chair is an experience

I can't praise this chair enough. Before I bought it, I saw all the reviews, and I was afraid that the armrests would ride backwards/forwards with every touch. It's not - either they fixed it in the newer chairs or I don't know. I've had the opportunity to sit in an HM chair, and the scrolling is much easier there. Ergonomically perfect, it makes you sit upright. The look is great, and the construction. I'm switching from a DX Racer chair I bought in 2019 for something like 6000 and the difference is indescribable. I can't praise the chair enough.

Quiet wheels
It's super ventilated and if it gets cold, I'll put a bedspread.
I was worried about the plastic on the armrests. No need. It's soft plastic.
Lots of adjustment options, really fits great.
Someone mentioned that the armrests themselves go back and forth. I don't see this so black. It takes quite a bit of strength.
Precision packaging in the box, the best I've seen so far in pc chairs. Luxury.
I certainly don't regret the finances.
The fact that the chair is heavy means that the construction can withstand something and that quality materials are used.
Possibility to lock the castors when the chair is not under load. I don't use it, but the option is there.
A big and heavy box (30kg), which unfortunately cannot be caught properly. Can't hug properly because of the weight. There are no handles, the manufacturer should think about this.

Verified purchase - review from a price comparison website
Meant to be good for tall people with high and comfortable backrest, it has got an extremely short seat and only 5cm of rail extension when sliding forward, making it impossible for tall people like me to seat comfortably as they would. With such a backrest, the seat should have been 5cm longer and the rail should have left other 10cm to slide forward.
The price should have been justified by the product perfection, but ergonomic measures fail for people over 1.8m. By the way it will feel still very good for shorter people.
Perfect materials quality, perfect backrest for tall people, very easy assembly, quality packaging.
It has got an extremely short seat and only 5cm of rail extension when sliding forward.
The price should have been justified by the product perfection.
