UK based premium office and gaming chair specialist, Boulies, today announces the arrival of its latest office chair collection, the EP400 Series. Designed to provide support and comfort for long periods, it has multiple supportive features including a footrest, neck pillow, dynamic back design for spinal support and adjustment options to suit the user. The EP400 Series chairs are available from the Boulies website in grey for £289.99.

Aiming to provide supportive comfort for both work time and when relaxing, the EP400 series has a number of features included to ensure posture and health is maintained and prioritised. With a dynamic back design, the chair automatically adjusts to the body and posture, providing unbeatable spinal support for extended periods of sitting. In addition, the included footrest can provide added relief and comfort whenever a break is needed without the need to leave the workspace - maximising productivity throughout the workday.




Featuring a unique and innovative back design, the EP400 provides customised support and movement based on the individual body and posture. The chair is able to conform to the contours of the body, offering dynamic spinal support that adjusts to movements throughout the day so that - whether leaning forward to focus on a task or reclining on a break - it always adapts and ensures support and comfort.

With multiple adjustment options, it is easy to maintain a healthy posture as the seat depth and height can be changed to meet the unique body needs of the individual and work to promote a better posture and comfort. The additional footrest ensures that users can stretch out and elevate feet for better blood circulation and reduce the risk of leg fatigue while the 3D soft pods armrests are 6-way adjustable to support the elbows. By using the adjustable neck pillow, the neck is supported and the pillow can be moved up, down and angled to preference for a personalised support that keeps a healthy sitting position and reduces strain.

Designed for comfort as well, the EP400 is made with upgraded mesh material that has been through rigorous testing for durability and seam strength so that it is able to withstand even the most demanding work environments. In addition, it gives an unrivalled breathability that keeps it cool while being extremely easy to maintain for if there are any spillages.

The EP400 Series is extremely durable with a strong aluminium wheelbase that gives the perfect balance between structural integrity and high-level quality material and a top-class Gas Lift with the best class of gas hydraulics to be safer, easier and more efficient than others.
The EP400 Series comes with a 2 years warranty and is suitable for users up to 130 kg/286 lb and a height of 170-190 cm/ 5'7" - 6'3".

The EP400 Series chairs are available from the Boulies website in grey for £289.99.

I'm like 99% sure these are white-labelled Sihoos. They make great chairs at great prices, don't see any reason to pay like 30% extra for some other arbitrary brand name.

Nope. I bought cheap chairs for years, they are all garbage or have some fatal flaw/annoyance.

Go to a legit office supply store and find something you like.
You can get used models, mine was $500 and the MSRP is around $1400

Should have done that years ago.

Every chair in jobs should be replaced with mesh ones. I find them so much better for blood flow and I can sit on them longer without having my legs fall asleep. Also everyone can guess the improvements to chair farts with that technology.

I'd settle for a chair that didn't kill my butt after an hour. The perfect pc chair would be a duplicate of my old 92 GMC Sierra 3/4 tons drivers seat. I could take 6 hr trips in that badboy. My legs and butt wouldn't hurt at all. Id stop to let the dog run around but not because I needed it. Sitting in anything since that truck and my ass hurts after an hour. Same with my pc chair. I spend more time walking off the ass pain than I do gaming! Of course old age may have something to do with it but I refuse to accept that damnit!!

In 1998 I purchased 1 steel legged secretary chair. Over the years I would salvage parts as it has a standard build. That's 25 years on the same chair. As long as I can repair the hydraulics and/or find a replacement I'm fine.

Chair farts, FTW! In this case though, I'd rather keep the "gift" to myself rather than share it with the world. Besides, everybody knows that if you wanna share the gift of stinky ass gas with the world, you do the right thing and rip that bad boy in a crowded elevator and hope it doesn't make a sound :D :roll:

This is the only correct choice.


Anyway, this chair looks nice, the mesh looks decent and most of the build seems relatively solid, but the with the mechanism i think they went as cheap as possible and this is the fatal flaw that will definitely create problems, unbalance, lack of adjustability, noises... At the end you will end up with huge paperweight somewhere in your house or throw it to the trash.

Better to save up and get a real office chair from a trusted brand in the sector. Could even go second hand on those since there is a massive market from mid tier to high tier chairs used in good shape around 200 to fully refurbished high end chairs for little more. It does require time to research and making sure you are not getting some ruined chair, which is usually hard afaik since they are built like titans.
