First impressions and setup

The unboxing was pretty simple. The assembly took a bit more effort, not because it was complicated, but because there were a few steps to get through, and it is not really a one-person job.

You do not need an external installer at all, though you should know how to use an Allen key, follow instruction manuals with ease and be willing to go online and watch a few videos before you start. This chair was and still is a two-person job, so make sure you have someone around to help once it arrives.

Once we got through the assembly, which at one point did need us to go online to cross-check a few points, the chair worked perfectly. It is easy to move, and everything from the neck rest to the height controls felt super smooth in use. I have tried plenty of office chairs, and the height adjustment never seems to work quite right every time. With this one, each time I have tested it, the movement has been smooth like butter.

The real test: 9 to 5 performance

After months of use, this chair is still working smoothly in every aspect. It has been easy to clean, has not needed any repair, and the cushioning has held up very well. The support it gives the spine, back, and neck has made long workdays far more manageable.

The adjustable neck rest helps throughout the day as fatigue sets in, letting you shift your posture without much effort. The chair handles long hours with ease, and the cushioning has not compressed or sagged at any point, even though I work nine to five, five days a week.

The adjustable hand rests and height controls add another layer of comfort. As someone who spends the entire day typing at a system, having hand rests that can be moved around is exactly what I need to stay comfortable. Overall, having a chair that feels genuinely supportive has changed the way I work, and I will not be going back to anything that skips lumbar support or adjustable features.

Hits, misses, and who should buy it

What worked for me

The adjustable neck support and lumbar support features just make this the perfect choice for me. A good office chair at home, especially, should be comfortable enough to be used for reading, studying, working, and more, and this chair has the versatility and features to adapt to your needs.

What could be better

A little better dust resistance would have made this easier to maintain. While I have a portable vacuum, which helps keep the dust off the cushioned parts, it catches the dust easily and needs constant care. I could cover the chair with a cloth when not in use, but I would prefer not to add additional steps to my routine.

Who should buy it?

Anyone who wants a premium office chair that offers multiple levels of adjustments and looks classic, then this is the right pick for you.

At its current pricing of around ₹8,890, down from an MRP of ₹15,437 online, this office chair might be the best bet you need!

After using the Green Soul Jupiter Pro, I am starting to realise how much attention goes into designing an office chair. As users, we often compromise on what we actually need. With this chair, that compromise drops by a huge margin thanks to the range of features it brings in. So if you spot me recommending this chair to anyone, ready to listen! Don’t be surprised!
