Native Cotton Office Chair

Admin October 14, 2026

There is controversy surrounding native cotton office chairs, with some products having fillings that do not match their advertisements, but there are also products that meet the standards.

Controversy Incident

In March 2026, some consumers reported that the ergonomic chair they purchased from the "YHP Furniture Flagship Store" on an e-commerce platform claimed to use a "native cotton" cushion. However, upon disassembly, they found that the filling consisted of colorful spliced shredded sponge, and even contained debris such as gravel. This situation triggered strong dissatisfaction and่ดจ็–‘ (doubts/questions) among consumers.

Merchant Explanation

In response to consumer doubts, the merchant stated that the filling was "native spliced cotton," which is a normal process. The merchant presented a recycled sponge test report, claiming that the product complies with national standards. They also explained that native cotton varies in size, and splicing small pieces of sponge is a normal operation. Additionally, sponge comes in various colors (white, gray, black, etc.), and consumers mistakenly believed it to be "black-hearted cotton." The merchant also admitted that the product page display might cause misunderstandings and said they would modify the images. However, from consumer feedback, this explanation has not been widely accepted.

Consumer Feedback

The product has sold 20,000 units in the past 30 days, with a total of 27,000 reviews, including over 1,200 negative reviews. Many consumers reported poor product quality, inferior fillings, and even the discovery of debris such as gravel. This indicates that the product has many issues in actual use, significantly differing from the merchant's advertised "native cotton" cushion, and seriously affecting consumer experience and trust.

Other Native Cotton Office Chairs

The search results also mentioned an "Annafu" office chair, which uses native cotton for its cushion, features a black frame and black mesh design, includes a footrest, and is reclining, fitting ergonomic principles with good support. This shows that not all native cotton office chairs on the market have quality issues, and some products can effectively utilize native cotton materials to provide consumers with a comfortable and high-quality experience. When purchasing native cotton office chairs, consumers should carefully distinguish and choose products from reputable and reliable sources.
