Steelcase has been one of the biggest names in luxury office seating for decades, and the company recently released an update to its popular mesh Karman model that has gamers in its sights. This new model features a high-back design with some truly eye-catching mesh weaves. It's well-made and premium-priced, starting at $1,030, but if you’re looking for tons of adjustments like the Gesture, Leap, or Think, you might be left wanting more.

The Steelcase Karman High Back is a striking mesh computer chair. The Karman in general was already an eye-catcher, with its intricately woven fabrics, unique color combinations, and prominent contours, and the High Back takes those features and builds on them. It’s one of the most interesting and, in my opinion, best-looking mesh chairs you can buy right now.

While the original was a standard mid-back office chair, the High Back adds a sculpted backrest and integrated headrest. When I was initially approached about doing this review, the representative explained that the company had gamers in mind with this release. In a way, it's easy to see why. It's certainly a chair that you can lean back in with a controller and game comfortably. On the other hand, there are enough color options and the design is minimalist enough that it could easily fit into an office setting. It's a good-looking design that can work well in a variety of environments.
