Why can you trust what I’m about to say? Well, I mean, I’ve been nestled in this SIHOO Doro C300 Pro chair for ages. Zac Bowden said it was the bomb for the price back in 2023. He wasn’t lying. It was $330 back then, and now? Well, snag it for $270 on a good day. Crazy, right?
But, oh wait, along comes the upgraded version. Think Doro C300 Pro. Flashy name, I know. It’s clocking in at about $440 on Amazon. There’s a coupon to drop it to $390 if you’re lucky. Why? Because it’s got all these upgrades, like 6D armrests. Who even knew that was a thing? You can get it cheaper on SIHOO’s site, sometimes. But Walmart? Forget it, prices are all over the place there.
The Pro model steps it up from the regular C300. The basic model’s 4D armrests—ha, “basic” sounds a bit mean—got topped by the Pro’s 6D. I mean, those things go up, down, sideways, in and out. There are all sorts of other tweaks too—angles, depth, seat width. If it sounds like I’m rambling, I probably am. These details spin in my head like a kaleidoscope sometimes.
Assembly? Oh man, this chair’s a beast to put together. Pieces everywhere. Ever try to juggle 55 pounds of chair bits? Yeah, you might want a buddy for this one, unless Hulk happens to be your alter ego. The wheels feel like they’re borrowed from a kiddie toy, but hey, once it’s set up, it doesn’t let you down. I’m talking comfort city.
Adjustments? Loads. It’s like cracking a safe every time. There’s a lever here, a switch there, some mystical handle lurking under the seat controlling everything from height to recline. It’s kind of like adjusting a car seat, but not. No broken backs here, though—gotta love that mesh. It’s comfy as heck, breathable during the scorchers too.
Oh, and that headrest! It floats. Well, not literally. But it follows you around like an obliging pet. And the back of this chair hugs you in a gentle, building-a-cocoon sort of way. The armrests have their quirks, might not hold your arms like a cradle, but they get the job done.
Ultimately, is it worth the extra dough? Dunno. Depends. The non-Pro version is kind of screaming “buy me” with a price tag that’s friendlier on the wallet. But let’s be real, you’re getting a snazzy piece of furniture either way. Still, the upgrades on the Pro are nifty if you’re techy like me. Decisions, decisions, right? More whimsical? More practical? Ah, the eternal struggle.
