3. Detailed comparison of Epione EasyChair 2.0 and FortisChair
In this section, I will go into detail to compare each part to help you see the similarities and differences between these two chairs. Let's get started!
3.1. Headrest
The Epione EasyChair has a headrest designed with a large contact area, helping to hug and support the user's neck. The reason it is called Pro-Fit 3D (D - Direction) is because of its ability to adjust in 3 directions, including lifting up and down along the vertical axis, customizing the tilt of the headrest with a knob and tilting the headrest to fit the neck.
Synchronized sliding capability on FortisChair.
In FortisChair, the headrest is 36cm wide, can be raised and lowered up to 5cm and can move flexibly along the neck area. This means that when you lean back, the sliding mechanism is synchronized with the two back panels and the seat plate along a vertical axis, causing the headrest to automatically slide along your neck and shoulders. This is a feature that is highly appreciated by many users because it is extremely unique in the segment under 5 million.
3.2. Backrest
The back of the EasyChair adopts the True Tilt mechanism - allowing you to precisely adjust the backrest at 4 levels including 90°, 100°, 115° and 135°. The 90° angle is ideal for upright sitting when working and studying, 115° is suitable for reading, while 135° is the appropriate tilt for relaxing or playing games during lunch break.
In addition, EasyChair is also equipped with a flexible independent backrest according to the ATLAS (Adjust Tuning Lumbar Area Support) mechanism and a mesh that is not too tight like the back or seat. You can easily customize 3 height levels to suit your body.
Lie back comfortably on the Epione EasyChair 2.0.
Meanwhile, FortisChair in the price range under 5 million still has some impressive points for users. Its back is divided into two separate parts. The mesh of the upper back will be tighter to force you into the correct ergonomic sitting position. The mesh of the lower back is more comfortable because it is designed as a simple supplementary part. The benefit of such separation is to provide optimal support for each body part without having to add extra pillows that cause heat and stuffiness.
Besides, it also has True Tilt mechanism like EasyChair but will be limited to 3 levels: 90°, 120°, 135°.
3.3. Armrest
The Kerta 3D armrest is equipped on both the EasyChair and FortisChair, both have soft rubber cushions, can be flexibly adjusted in 3 directions but are actually a bit different. FortisChair is easier to adjust with 3 directions up - down, left - right, front - back. The height from the floor is 65cm, with a maximum lifting capacity of up to 72cm.
Meanwhile, EasyChair has an additional folding feature when not in use but at the same time cannot be adjusted forward - backward. This feature is extremely useful in case you want to sit and hold your child in your arms, hug your pet in your lap, or play the guitar without being entangled. Besides the outstanding advantages, the maximum lifting height can be its disadvantage when sitting at a desk that is too high. If you want a table that fits this chair, you can refer to our desk!

Both also share a bit of difficulty adjusting. Because the adjustment knob is a bit stiff, women may have to use more force or adjust with both hands.
3.4. Seat
The EasyChair tray is made from SHRINX mesh – Krall + Roth from Germany, providing coolness, comfort and durability. The mesh pattern is designed to look like thin, smooth waves and creates the feeling that its owner must be a sophisticated, elegant and luxurious person.
What’s special about it is that the seat pan can be moved forward and backward to suit the correct sitting posture (the back of the knee is about 2-4 inches from the front of the chair). In addition, it comes with a PU leather footrest that supports your thighs when you are in a relaxing reclining position. You can easily fold and customize the length of the footrest.
Not stopping there, it also has a Tension Control resistance mechanism - the ability to adjust the resistance of the chair back in 4 levels. Each rotation corresponds to levels of 50kg, 50-70kg, 70-90kg and 90kg or more. While working, you will occasionally lean back to stretch, so this mechanism is extremely useful for people with different body weights.
Epione EasyChair 2.0 seat tray
EasyChair is superior, but FortisChair is not inferior. In the price range under 5 million, the chair mesh is often too tight or too loose. With mesh that is too tight, men will definitely feel uncomfortable because it will leave marks on the skin when not wearing a shirt. Our R&D team understands that. Therefore, the BreathMesh mesh on this FortisChair will not disappoint you because it is skin-friendly, does not cause stuffiness and does not leave deep marks.
3.5. Piston
Both have Class 4 Pistons, one of the highest standards used today for civil pistons, and are ANSI/BIFMA X5.1 certified, ensuring smooth and durable operation. The powerful LANTAN Piston on the FortisChair can withstand a maximum load of 140kg while the Piston from the Samhongsa brand (Korea) from EasyChair can withstand a load of up to 150kg. You can sit with your child or hold your pet in your arms without worrying about the load.

Although they are both Class 4, different brands will bring different product quality. Indeed, the piston on the EasyChair is slightly better when tested with people with large body weight. The EasyChair feels comfortable and does not shake, while there will be slight shaking on the FortisChair.
3.6. Chair legs
The legs of EasyChair and FortisChair are both equipped with 5 flexible and easy-to-use wheels. The chair can move stably on any surface such as wood, carpet without getting stuck or making annoying squeaking sounds. In addition, the base is made of sturdy powder-coated aluminum, creating a luxurious, durable, stable, safe and aesthetic appearance over time.

Should I choose Epione EasyChair 2.0 or FortisChair?
The two chairs are in two different price segments and they are both equipped with unique and best features compared to their competitors in their own price range.

In return, FortisChair is more budget-friendly but still satisfying compared to regular office chairs, or compared to other ergonomic chairs in the same segment.

There is a note about ideal height and weight that you should pay attention to. Epione EasyChair 2.0 will be best suited for you between 1m60 and 1m75 tall, while FortisChair will be 1m65 to 1m8 with a recommended weight of 80kg.

3. Detailed comparison of Epione ErgoChair Pro 2.0 and AliusChair
3.1. Headrest
The Epione ErgoChair Pro 2.0 has a perfectly curved headrest that hugs and supports the user's neck. The reason it is called Pro-Fit 2D (D - Direction) is because it can be adjusted in 2 directions, up and down along the vertical axis and flexibly adjust the tilt.
Designed similar to a Robot arm, the Alius 3D headrest can be flexibly adjusted to fit your neck and nape in 3 directions, including lifting up and down along the vertical axis, customizing the tilt of the headrest with a knob and tilting the headrest to fit the nape. In addition, it is also equipped with a knob to adjust the precision as desired.
3.2. Backrest
Both chairs use a 4-position True Tilt reclining mechanism, allowing you to customize the reclining angle at 90°, 100°, 115° and 135°. Each angle is suitable for different tasks, from working, studying, reading to playing games or relaxing during lunch breaks.
Epione ErgoChair Pro 2.0 has an independent backrest that can be flexibly adjusted according to the ATLAS (Adjust Tuning Lumbar Area Support) mechanism, equipped with high-quality SHRINX mesh - Krall + Roth from Germany, giving a comfortable sitting feeling, not too tight and not causing skin irritation. Moreover, its secondary backrest can also be adjusted in and out and fixed with a simple lock, combined with the custom seat tray, you have a perfect sitting position for working and studying!

Meanwhile, the AliusChair with CloverFit backrest has a unique and eye-catching four-leaf clover design, flexible height adjustment with 4 smart locking levels. The outstanding advantage of this design is that when you change your posture, the back pieces will automatically move with your body without the need for manual adjustment.
The two lower pieces of the AliusChair are made of thin, durable and elastic TPU material, which is especially skin-friendly and hugs the user's waist. It can be raised and lowered up to 6cm with 3 levels of adjustment, giving you a comfortable sitting experience.
3.3. Armrest
The ErgoChair Pro 2.0's Kerta 4D armrest with a flexible multi-directional adjustment mechanism in up - down, left - right, front - back, diagonal left - diagonal right, allows your arms to always be perfectly supported whether you are using a computer, reading or playing games, relaxing. A highlight of this chair is that every operation you perform does not create noise - a factor that causes discomfort for some users and can affect people around in the office environment.
Epione AliusChair is made from high-quality PU plastic and has a 5D armrest, not only providing comfort but also having the ability to flexibly navigate in 5 different directions. To help you visualize easily, I will leave an illustration right below!

3.4. Seat
Similar to the backrest, the ErgoChair Pro 2.0 seat is also made from SHRINX mesh – Krall + Roth from Germany. The mesh pattern is designed to look like thin, smooth waves and creates the feeling that its owner must be a sophisticated, luxurious and stylish person.
In addition, as mentioned above, the seat tray can be moved in and out with a 6cm slide and can be adjusted to a 9° tilt to suit the ergonomic sitting position. In addition, it is also integrated with the Tension Control resistance mechanism - the ability to adjust the resistance of the backrest in 4 levels, including 50kg, 50-70kg, 70-90kg and 90kg or more.
Quality FlexMesh on Epione AliusChair
Unlike ErgoChair Pro 2.0, AliusChair is slightly better in terms of mesh material. AliusChair's FlexMesh mesh has a denser mesh density, a tighter surface, so it is more sturdy and durable over time. The denser mesh density does not mean that sitting on it will feel rough, on the contrary, it feels very comfortable, pleasant and feels like the body is being fully supported. Moreover, it also meets Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 with a safe mesh surface, does not cause irritation because it is woven from good and environmentally friendly materials.
3.5. Piston
Both feature Class 4 Pistons from Samhongsa, one of the highest standards currently used for consumer pistons, and are ANSI/BIFMA X5.1 certified, ensuring smooth and durable operation. With a load capacity of 120kg for the AliusChair and 140kg for the ErgoChair Pro 2.0, both are not only suitable for users with standard appearance but also ensure stability and safety for those with large body weight.
You may wonder why the AliusChair with a higher price has a lower load capacity than the ErgoChair Pro 2.0? From the manufacturer's side, when conducting a load-bearing test, they will use an object equivalent to the amount of kg to be measured and place it on the entire chair, not just the piston. The piston is only an indirect load-bearing object, the load also depends on the structure and mass of directly related parts such as the seat tray, backrest, etc. Because the design of the AliusChair seat tray is a bit slimmer and lighter than the ErgoChair Pro 2.0, it also affects the load-bearing capacity of the chair.
3.6. Chair legs
The ErgoChair Pro 2.0's base is made of powder-coated alloy, which is both aesthetically pleasing and ensures strength, durability and superior load-bearing capacity. AliusChair is slightly better with a base cast from a single block of high-quality aluminum alloy, which is not only durable but also brings a sophisticated and high-class beauty.
PU wheels can move stably on all surfaces such as wood, carpet without getting stuck or making annoying squeaking sounds. As for AliusChair, the wheel design will be more luxurious and sophisticated than the other chairs. In addition, AliusChair is also equipped with a footrest, integrated into the chair to enhance your wonderful experience. The combination of sturdy steel material and the highlight of the footrest covered with leather promises to bring moments of complete work and relaxation.
