I Put TikTok’s Favorite Cross-Legged Office Chair to the Test — and It Totally Lives Up to the Hype

If you’re anything like me, you love scouring TikTok for viral home finds the internet can’t get enough of. Over the last few years, I’ve discovered many of my favorite products by scrolling through my FYP and taking note of what has people buzzing. From my favorite water bottle to the candle warmer lamp, I’ve yet to be led astray by the app’s enthusiastic users. This brings me to my latest discovery: the Pukami Armless Cross-Legged Office Chair.

With more and more people working from home these days, I wasn’t surprised to see an office chair trending on TikTok, but I was definitely interested to see why this specific chair had everyone running for their wallets. While stylish and affordable, it turns out there was one specific reason: This chair allows you to comfortably sit cross-legged. When I saw this, I reached for my wallet, too.

If you’ve been on TikTok sometime within the last few months, you’ve likely seen this chair. Featuring a sleek channel-tufted design, this linen office chair is easy on the eyes, adjustable, and wide enough to comfortably accommodate cross-legged sitting. It also comes with supportive cushions and features a swiveling armless design that allows for unrestricted movement.

As someone who loves sitting cross-legged as they work (and someone who was in the market for a new office chair), I immediately added this bad boy to my Amazon cart when it came across my FYP. When it arrived, I was happy to see just how lightweight and easy to put together it was; all in all, it took me a little under 20 minutes to unbox and assemble it! But most importantly, this chair is as comfy as it looks. The seat is made from memory foam that is super supportive for both my hips and spine. And yes, with this chair I can finally sit “crisscross applesauce” as I do my work, something I never thought would be possible, especially as a plus-sized woman.

Available in three colors (beige, gray, and light blue), this TikTok-famous office chair costs just $90, which is pretty much a steal when it comes to office chairs. So does this chair live up to the hype? My vote is yes, but you’re going to have to put it to the test to find out for yourself.
