tldr; Often confused with Steelcase Leap V1. Budget option that's decent for price, but community prefers used premium chairs at same cost.

Best praise vs top criticism for Sihoo V1
“It’s not a Herman miller. It literally says steelcase in the back of the chair. That being said, a steelcase leap v1 is a great deal for 60 and likely much better than what you currently have.”
“So this looks to be what is called a V1 Highback. It’s a previous generation that I think stopped being made in 2006/2009 so is likely early to mid 2000s. It’s not a horrible chair but the cushion is obviously older and will likely deflate faster. It’s not a bad deal but I’d ask for $100. You can then spend about $200 ish to do a pad swap with Crandall for new foam and new fabric. It won’t be leather but it will be new. I ended up being weird and just swapping the seat (less expensive). I personally like a leather back so here is my frankin chair https://preview.redd.it/rp6c66lidn3e1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3a0097e9d64ed51ca5329df4c077d9cf2bcc615c You can see difference between old cushion and new. Not a lot “goes wrong” with a chair like this. You can get a cylinder pretty cheap if you are handy. Just make sure adjustments work and it raises and lowers and if you can snag it for $100 and upgrade I’d 100% do it”
