OFM ComfySeat Ergonomic Multi-Adjustable Task Chair Review 2025

Are you on a budget? Are you looking for a low-priced office chair or a decent backup chair for light to moderate daily use?

If you answered yes to either of those questions, you’ll be intrigued by our review of the ComfySeat by Office Furniture Marketing (OFM).

Founded in 1995, OFM primarily sells to companies buying in bulk. Their furniture is easy to assemble, reasonably comfortable, and offers basic functionality. While they’re not incredible chairs, OFM has a reputation for making decent, reliable furniture, and those descriptors apply to the ComfySeat. Even better, this task chair is offered at a price that will leave you money for other things you want to buy.

In the following sections, we’ll tell you all about what the OFM ComfySeat Ergonomic Multi-Adjustable Task chair offers, what it can do, and where it comes up a little short. While it’s far from the perfect office chair, it’s an option worth considering. Want to learn more? Let’s take a closer look!

Key Features of the OFM Model 125 Ergonomic Task Chair

Unobtrusive. That’s the first word that will likely spring to mind when you see the OFM ComfySeat Ergonomic Multi-Adjustable Task Chair for the first time. It’s not an unattractive chair, but it’s clear that ComfySeat’s designers were more concerned with functionality, so it’s designed along purely conventional lines. That’s not a bad thing. It makes it incredibly easy for this chair to blend seamlessly with almost any environment, a fact that’s made easier still given that this chair is offered in a modest selection of colors, including:

Chair Specifications

Before we get into feature particulars, let’s look at the stats defining the model. Here they are:

These numbers are a bit curious to us. The seat height adjustment range marks this as a chair designed for bigger, taller folks, but the modest maximum supported user weight doesn’t support that idea.

It’s a great chair for taller, long-legged people with light to average builds, but a big and tall chair is not.

Comfortable Padding

Task chairs are typically not as well-padded or comfortable as executive office chairs, and this one is no exception. It utilizes modest amounts of conventional block foam, with the company’s stain-resistant fabric stretched over it.

There’s certainly enough padding to make the OFM Model 125 Ergonomic Task chair comfortable for light to moderate daily use, but this chair wasn’t designed with power users in mind. If you’re looking for something you can sit comfortably in for 8+ hours daily, this isn’t it.

It’s a great option for people with active jobs, though, who spend short periods sitting and then get up to move around and do something else before returning to their chair for another short period.

Ergonomic Features

The ComfySeat sports two well-implemented ergonomic features: a sculpted seat that helps improve posture and circulation in the lower extremities and a very good lumbar support system. The lumbar support isn’t adjustable, but that’s not a surprise, given the delightfully low price for which the chair is being sold.

Sculpted Seatback

Note the design of the seatback, too. It’s sculpted such that when you lean back, it cradles you in the chair. It’s not the same effect as sitting in a bucket, racing-style seat, but it’s the same concept in a much more modest form.

Although we can’t say it provides a notable amount of ergonomic benefit, the design team knows their way around the office furniture market, giving the comfy seat an understated but interesting look.

Adjustability

In addition to that, you’ll find the usual array of features – tilt and lock, swivel, and height adjustment. This model does offer one smallish surprise, though, in the form of a seat tilt function that allows you to tilt and lock it in a slightly forward position. It’s not something everyone will want or need, but depending on your work, you may find it of value.

Although the armrests are not ergonomically designed, they are independently height adjustable, which gives you at least some ability to tweak and customize your seating experience.

Assembly is a Breeze

The OFM Model 125 ComfySeat Ergonomic Task Chair has very good, clear assembly instructions, and none of the pieces are excessively large, which makes putting the chair together a snap. It should take no more than twenty minutes to put it together solo, and adding a second pair of hands won’t speed the process along much.

This model offers expert assembly for an additional fee. However, we can’t recommend it. The fee is about 50% of the total price of the chair, and given how easy it is to assemble, it’s not worth the extra money. If you don’t want to be bothered, consider adding that option to your purchase.

Pros & Cons of the OFM Model 125 Ergonomic Task Chair

The ComfySeat is about as basic as it gets. It’s a decent chair offered by a smaller, respected brand that does its best to care for its customers. OFM was founded as a labor of love, and although companies that tend to sell in bulk are often accused of being the lowest common denominator, you can tell that ComfySeat is slightly different. That’s because OFM is slightly different and in the best way.

In our minds, we put OFM in the same basic category as Flash Furniture, and we love Flash Furniture’s products, so that’s intended as a compliment!

These are not show-stopping or flat-out amazing chairs. They’re good chairs. The ComfySeat would make an awesome chair for someone with an active job or who needs a chair for light to moderate daily use.

You’ll find a lot to like here if you remember those facts and see the chair for what it is rather than trying to make it into something it isn’t.

The only thing we’d recommend changing is ruggedizing the frame slightly to bulk up its maximum supported weight. This would align that element better with the model’s seat height adjustment range and make the ComfySeat appealing to a broader market. Even better, we know that’s within OFM’s capabilities because they make 400-pound supported weight-limit chairs.

Any other changes we could recommend would make the chair into something it wasn’t designed to be, so aside from that, we like it just as it is. It’s worth noting that if you’re not brand-conscious and remove the brand weight from our scoring metric, the ComfySeat delivers an impressive 4.1 stars out of five, which is pretty respectable for a task chair.

OFM ComfySeat Ergonomic Multi-Adjustable Task Chair Review Conclusion

OFM is a good little brand you’ve probably never heard of. That’s a shame because their chairs deserve more attention than they get. While we readily admit that the OFM ComfySeat Ergonomic Multi-Adjustable Task Chair isn’t for everyone, it’s an awesome choice for the right person.

In our view, the right person is someone who:

If that sounds like you, this chair deserves a second and possibly even a third look. The fewer of the points above that apply to you, the less satisfied you’ll be with this model. We like it perhaps more than its final score would indicate, and on that basis, we provisionally recommend it.
