Alea Task 5-Star Base Mesh Office Chair

Alea Task 5-Star Base Mesh Office Chair

The Alea Task Task 5-Star Base Mesh Office Chair is a task chair for people who need an armrest-equipped seat for desk work. Its low mesh backrest gives the chair an open, lightweight appearance, while a synchronous mechanism and five-star caster base provide its defining combination of movement and support for everyday office use.

Mesh Back and Nylon Base

A mesh backrest keeps the chair’s design visually open and pairs with fabric upholstery for a mix of materials across the seat and back. This makes it a considered option for a work area where a fully upholstered back would feel visually heavier; the supplied details do not specify mesh tension or upholstery color.

The five-star base is made from plastic with a matt black nylon finish, and 50 mm castors let the chair roll when you need to reposition it. Its base colors are listed as black, beige, green, silver, white, blue, grey and orange, giving buyers a range of color families to consider for their workspace.

Alea identifies this model as circular, and the chair comes with a two-year warranty. The stated maximum load is 135 kg, which helps buyers check whether the chair’s listed capacity suits its intended user.

Movement and Adjustment

The synchronous mechanism coordinates movement of the seat and back, so the chair responds as a linked system rather than relying on separate seat and back mechanisms. It is described as a one-point synchro mechanism; further details about its settings are not provided.

Armrests are included, with a 1D armrest type, adding an adjustment option for arm support. However, the seat height, back height and seat depth are not adjustable, and this model has no headrest or lumbar support. Those fixed features are important to consider when choosing a chair: it is best suited to a workstation where the fixed seat and back fit the user, rather than someone seeking multiple fit adjustments.

Choosing This Alea Task Chair

The Alea Task Task 5-Star Base Mesh Office Chair is designed as a task chair for an office workstation, and its rolling base also suits a home office where the user needs to move around a desk. The mesh back and fabric upholstery create a straightforward material combination, while the armrests and synchronous mechanism add movement and support features without making this a highly adjustable model.

Consider how the fixed seat dimensions and lack of lumbar support align with the person who will use it before selecting this chair. If the fit works, its caster base, 1D armrests and coordinated mechanism provide practical features for desk-based work; if seat-height or back support adjustment is essential, those options are not listed for this model.
