FlexiSpot's C7 Morpher chair lives up to its premium price with supreme comfort and dynamic adjustment options

I'm testing a fair amount of chairs these days, from the lackluster E‑WIN Champion Upgraded chair to the gaming-centric Razer Iskur V2 X, which ended up being just the replacement I needed after my old chair bit the dust. Now, I've been privileged yet again to review FlexiSpot's "Premium Back Support Ergo Chair C7 Morpher" with meshing and an added footrest (let's just call it the FlexiSpot C7 Morpher for short).

This is the most extravagant chair I've ever tested, so I was curious to see if its quality would live up to its similarly extravagant price of $899.99 at FlexiSpot.com (or $939.99 at FlexiSpot with the added footrest). After building and testing it for a few days, my worries were quickly dashed. I've been blown away by how comfortable and modifiable this chair is. It's packed to the nines with the most seat adjustment settings I've ever seen, and its ergonomic design and mesh materials brought top-class comfort for my back.

Here's my review of the FlexiSpot C7 Morpher chair.

Is the FlexiSpot C7 Morpher easy to build?

As always with chairs like this, the best place to start is mentioning its assembly, which was a mixed bag. On the one hand, the C7 Morpher includes an informative instruction booklet with clear directions for putting it together and operating its numerous seat adjustment options.

On the other hand, it was somewhat of a struggle, as several components were quite heavy to lift and hold in place, and their awkward positioning made matters more taxing.

Plus, some of the included screws had trouble fitting into the screw holes because the holes were slightly too small, though your own variant of the C7 Morpher may have more perfectly sized fittings. In the end, I had to get help putting the chair together.

So, if a somewhat strong guy like me, who's capable of lifting big chairs like the Razer Iskur V2 X, had trouble with FlexiSpot's C7 Morpher alone, then someone with lower strength or mobility issues will absolutely need assistance to build this chair (especially if they lack sufficient room space).

As for build quality, the C7 Morpher certainly left me impressed. My unit came with mesh seating material (also available in foam as an alternative), which feels slightly rugged but pleasant and durable to touch.

On top of that, the chair's metal wheel base is durable and strong enough to support me without any issues, and I weigh around 230 lbs as of this writing.

FlexiSpot's website states the maximum weight capacity of this chair is 380 lbs, meaning the C7 Morpher will be more than capable of supporting heavyweight gamers who weigh between 300 and 400 lbs, provided it's assembled correctly.

Is the FlexiSpot C7 Morpher comfortable?

There is a reason why this chair is called FlexiSpot C7 "Morpher," and it's because it features ten seat adjustment options (or eleven if you buy the version with the added footrest), which is the most I've ever seen on any chair to date, period.

These options include an adjustable headrest, armrests, seat height, seat depth, recline tension, seat recline, backrest height, backrest sliding, upper backrest angle, an inflatable air cushion for lumbar support, and a footrest. It was quite overwhelming at first, but once I got the hang of it, I was able to practically mold and reshape every facet of this chair to my exact liking, and it felt so good.

My back felt like it was resting on clouds thanks to its inflatable air-cushioned lumbar support, its padded armrest felt comfy for my arms, and its headrest did wonders for my neck, as it's been a long time since I had a chair with a proper headrest.

Plus, being able to adjust the depth of the bottom seating is an innovative idea. It allowed me to not sit so close to the backrest and adjust it to fit the curvature of my backside better, which improved my comfort and posture while sitting down.

On top of that, the optional footrest was a nice touch as it allowed me to adjust the seat to a more laid-back position for my feet so I can kick back and relax, watching Netflix or playing games on my Xbox.

Should you buy the FlexiSpot C7 Morpher?

✅ You should buy this if ...

• You want the highest quality office/gaming chair money can buy to bring comfort to your back and feet.
• You want a chair with a lot of seat adjustment options.
• You want a chair with clear and easy-to-understand instructions on how to put it together.

❌ You should not buy this if ...

• You want a more affordable, budget-friendly gaming/officer that won't cost you close to $1,000.
• You want a simple chair that isn't outfitted with too many adjustment options.
• If you weigh over FlexiSpot's recommended weight limit of 380lbs.

I honestly have no complaints about the quality of the chair as it's that good.

My only real criticism (a nitpick at worst) is that the seat adjustment levers and switches could do with better labelling, perhaps painted in different colors, as the slightly marked diagrams blend too much into the chair's black color scheme.

As a result, I highly recommend that you don't throw away the instruction manual for the FlexiSpot C7 Morpher, as you will need it to remember what each of its numerous adjustments does and avoid accidentally twisting it into an uncomfortable position.

Aside from that, this chair was a delight to use, and its features and comfort levels would give other premium-priced chairs we've reviewed in the past a serious run for their money, like the Secretlab TITAN Evo NanoGen or the Razer Iskur V2.

So, if you're looking for one of the best gaming chairs or best office chairs in the business, I highly recommend the FlexiSpot C7 Morpher, which more than lives up to its $899.99 MSRP at FlexiSpot (or $939.99 at FlexiSpot with the optional footrest).
