FlexiSpot continues to shine with great options across a wide range of pricing tiers, making it a bit difficult to pin down a higher-priced offering or a budget option.
The C7 Morpher leans towards the higher end of mid-tier - expect to pay around $800 / £800 when not on sale. It's a nice enough ergonomic office chair, but it blends in a bit more than some of the best office chairs I've reviewed at this price, looking not too dissimilar from other 'serious' and 'professional' seats.
Depending on what you want and your own design and styling preferences, this may be preferred. I know I prefer simple black or dark grey chairs, unless it’s an accent or statement piece, but that usually comes with elegance. Some people prefer fun colors to liven up their workspace, while others prefer a specific color to match what they already have (or to avoid clashing).
The C7 Morper can fit that niche of looking nice and simple, but not cheap, but it’s still not going to be an elegant statement piece.
Flexispot C7 Morpher: Price and availability
The FlexiSpot C7 Morpher is available for $800 from FlexiSpot.com and £800 from FlexiSpot.co.uk. However, at the time of review, it's discounted in the US to $650, and FlexiSpot generally run sales on all its office chairs - if you can wait a bit and watch the price, I’d suggest doing so.
Cost-wise, this is akin the excellent Steelcase Series 2, sitting at the upper end of mid-tier (arguably, it's broaching the premium price-point). What it lacks in design style, it makes up for in comfort features.
Flexispot C7 Morpher: Unboxing and First Impressions
The C7 Morpher arrived in a single, unassuming box that weighed just under 80 lbs. Once we started unboxing we noticed that every piece was individually wrapped in foam to help make sure that the chair gets delivered in good condition, which is something I appreciate as some chair companies skimp on this and then the chairs can sometimes arrive damaged.
With a single person, setup took about 30 minutes from unboxing to fully assembled utilizing the included T-handle Allen wrench — though we didn’t utilize the included gloves this time.
Upon first inspection, my team and I agree that the materials for this chair are on the nicer quality side of the spectrum, especially for this price range. The wheel base and the arms are made from aluminum, while the chair frame is a durable plastic material. The chair seat and back are covered in a comfortable yet durable fabric mesh material that seems like it'll be able to last quite a while without any signs of wear and tear.
As I've mentioned in the past for other chairs, I'm a big fan of mesh backs due to the increased airflow circulation and because I naturally run a bit warmer than the average individual, so I appreciated seeing that on this chair.
Flexispot C7 Morpher: Design & Build Quality
After years now of having leg rests available on chairs and having them become more and more common, I have noticed that I rarely end up actually using it.
However, that could very well just be a personal thing, as I don't usually use these chairs for anything but work. I'm usually trying to be really intentional with my posture when sitting, but if you're the kind of person who would utilize it, this is another one of the chairs that has a built-in one that slides underneath the seat when not in use.
Beyond the largest and materials, the other adjustability points are pretty standard for Flexispot chairs, and they're still overall usually on the more adjustable side when it comes to ergonomic offerings for these office thrones.
I've put this chair through the test with a handful of my team members, some friends, some family, and several others who have walked past that have been interested in my ever-growing chair collection.
While I haven't tested the capacity up to 380 lb, I have tested the height range with individuals ranging from 5'7" to 6'2", and there seems to be wiggle room on both ends for comfortable seating in this chair.
If you plan to use this on a low-pile carpet or a hard floor, the standard casters will be good enough. However, if you want a smoother ride, or if you are on a rougher surface or longer carpet, you will want to upgrade the casters. If you're interested, FlexiSpot offers this at an additional cost, or you can pick some up on Amazon.
Flexispot C7 Morpher: Final verdict
If you're looking for a simple chair that will still provide ergonomic comfort for all-day work, but you don't want to spend an arm and a leg, then this is a chair that's worth considering. But if you're the kind of person who wants a more luxurious or elegant-looking chair that perhaps stands out a little bit more - especially at this price, then the C7 Morpher may not be the option for you.
