Adjustment range decides more than the padding · review
A mesh chair with a separate adjustable lumbar pad, 3D armrests that fold up 90°, an adjustable headrest and a stated 150 kg (330.7 lb) capacity, at about €80 on amazon.de.
What this adds up to A separate lumbar pad, folding 3D armrests and a tilting headrest, each with a published range, for about €80 — less than half the CAPOT and ELITESEATS, though the seat height's end positions are not given.
Where the Yaheetech in this hub builds lumbar support into the shape of the mesh, this one separates it into its own adjustable pad — 3 cm (1.2 in) of forward-back travel and 5.5 cm (2.2 in) of vertical travel, independent of backrest angle. The difference is practical: a fixed curve sits where the maker put it, while a pad can be moved to where your lower back actually is. One caveat: one bullet gives the vertical travel as 5.5 cm, another as 5 cm.
The armrests follow the same logic. They are 3D — sliding forward and back, rotating up to 5° — and fold up 90° when not needed, which both frees desk space and lets the chair tuck further under a desk than a chair with fixed-width arms.
Marsail states a 150 kg (330.7 lb) weight capacity and an 8 cm (3.1 in)-thick high-density foam seat, neither of which the Yaheetech publishes. The seat height travel is 10 cm (3.9 in) — the same as the Yaheetech and 1 cm more than the CAPOT — but Marsail does not say where that travel starts and ends, so the fit against a given desk cannot be checked from the listing. The PU casters are sold as silent and scratch-free; the listing says nothing about carpet. No warranty is stated. On amazon.de it reads about €80, against about €46 for the Yaheetech and about €180 to €200 for the ELITESEATS and CAPOT.

Yes — Marsail states the armrests fold up 90°, intended to let the chair slide further under a desk or free up space when it is not needed for arm support.
It is a separate pad that moves independently of the backrest — 3 cm (1.2 in) forward and back, 5.5 cm (2.2 in) up and down — rather than a curve built into the mesh, which lets it be positioned against the lower back specifically rather than relying on a one-size backrest shape.
