The LiberNovo Omni Pro enters the premium office chair market with an eye-watering £849 starting price and a feature set that reads like a tech product – with it's motorized backrest, built-in stretch mode, active seat ventilation, and a USB-C battery bank to power it all. But do these electronic additions actually improve the daily seating experience, or are they just expensive gimmicks masking a standard ergonomic chair?

Closing Thoughts

The LiberNovo Omni Pro is a chair that genuinely expands what an office chair can be. By integrating motorised adjustments, you can perfectly dial in your posture with the push of a button, whether you are leaning forward for competitive gaming or fully reclined with the optional footrest to watch an F1 race. The active cooling and Omni Stretch mode lean far more toward “genuinely useful” than “gimmick,” and the overall comfort provided by the soft, breathable fabric and well-designed frame is exceptional. I particularly loved that the armrests move dynamically with the backrest recline, a feature more brands need to adopt.

However, at £943 for the full setup (including the footrest), the warranty situation is a tough pill to swallow. While the physical chair gets 5 years of coverage, the electronics—the very components that make this chair special—are only covered for 2 years.

Despite this, if you have the budget, this is one of the most versatile and comfortable chairs I have ever tested.

Pros:

• Massive versatility with highly adjustable, comfortable seating positions.
• Omni Stretch mode and motorized backrest are genuinely useful features.
• Armrests move perfectly in tandem with the backrest recline.
• Battery life from the removable USB-C power bank (lasted a full month and counting).

Cons:

• Disappointing 2-year warranty on the electronics given the premium price.
• Out-of-the-box height adjustment bug required manual disassembly to fix.
• Battery bank charges very slowly (under 10W).

KitGuru says: The LiberNovo Omni Pro is an incredibly comfortable and versatile chair with features that actually enhance the user experience, but it is a little held back by only 2 years of electronics warranty.

The Boulies Aura enters the competitive office chair market with a £270 price tag, promising a blend of clean, modern design and ergonomic comfort. Featuring a highly adjustable frame, cold-cured foam, and breathable fabric, it looks like a solid ergonomic investment on paper. But does this extensive list of adjustments actually translate into a comfortable, supportive experience for long hours of work and gaming?

Closing Thoughts

The Boulies Aura is a highly competent office chair that excels in its sheer level of adjustability. Being able to tweak the seat depth, backrest height, lumbar support, and armrests makes it incredibly easy to dial in a customized fit for long productivity or gaming sessions. The plush cold-cured foam and breathable fabric make it a comfortable place to sit, and the remarkably easy 20-minute solo assembly process is a massive bonus for anyone dreading flat-pack furniture.

However, it is not without a few quirks. Smaller users (under 1.75m) may find the seat depth a bit too long even on the shortest setting, and the armrests do not naturally go low enough for competitive gamers who like to sit flush against their desk—though reversing the armrests works as a clever, easy workaround. Add in some minor plastic-on-plastic creaking during adjustments and a black fabric that acts as a magnet for pet hair, and it loses a tiny bit of its premium luster. Overall, if the £270 price fits your budget and you need a highly customizable ergonomic chair, the Aura is a very solid choice that is built to last.

You can buy the Boulies Aura for £269.99 HERE.

Pros:

• Good amount of ergonomic adjustability (seat depth, lumbar, backrest).
• Very comfortable cold-cured foam seat for long sessions.
• Quick and easy solo assembly (under 20 minutes).
• Highly repairable and customizable (armrests can be easily unscrewed and reversed if you want them lower and further back).

Cons:

• Minimum seat depth might be slightly too long for users under 1.75m.
• Minor plastic creaks make the adjustment mechanisms feel less premium.
• Black fabric is an absolute magnet for pet hair.
• Seat foam can get a bit warm in rooms over 25°C.

KitGuru says: The Boulies Aura offers an impressive suite of ergonomic adjustments and genuine all-day comfort, making it a strong contender for any home office or gaming setup.
