Side by side

SIHOO S100 vs C300 Pro V2: S100 gets to shorter seat settings, C300 stretches farther

Quick verdict

A shorter seat setting points to S100. S100 shortens to 15.15 inches and extends to 17.12. C300 Pro V2 is the choice when you need more depth, with a published range of 16.9 to 18.5 inches, or when you specifically want its tilting arm pads and separate 3D headrest. The two published depth ranges overlap by only 0.22 inches. Use those numbers to shortlist a trial. They cannot predict fit from your height alone.

Before you buy

Why, and what it costs you

Most of the seat lengths the two sliders cover are different

Both S100 and C300 Pro V2 advertise adjustable depth, yet the only stretch their published ranges share is the 16.9 to 17.12-inch interval. That is 0.22 inches, about 5.6 mm. So a shared desk with two very different seated leg lengths takes more thought than simply picking the chair with more adjustments. Check each person’s fit at both ends of the range. C300’s extra headrest and arm movements cannot make its seat retract below its minimum.

Where this comes from

The overlap works out as min(17.12,18.5) minus max(15.15,16.9) = 0.22 inches, and 0.22 × 25.4 = 5.588 mm. These are manufacturer US dimensions. No independent measurement was taken.

The catch

SIHOO Doro S100

A user who needs a longer setting cannot make it up through back-height adjustment, because S100’s maximum published depth is shorter.

The catch

SIHOO Doro C300 Pro V2

Extra features on C300 Pro V2 do not help if you need a shorter seat, since it starts at 16.9 inches.

Why pick it
  • A shorter front-to-back cushion position is what your seated fit calls for.
  • You are fine with the S100 upper-back adjustment and have no need for C300’s more elaborate arm mechanism.

What this page compares

Different leg lengths, shared desks and evening devices are the focus for Doro S100 and C300 Pro V2. Compare the US seat ranges before choosing by headrest or arm count.

Adjustable depth and supportive-looking backs come on these all-mesh SIHOO chairs, yet their published US seat ranges sit at noticeably different positions.

In practice

Differences you will notice

Most of the seat lengths the two sliders cover are different

Both S100 and C300 Pro V2 advertise adjustable depth, yet the only stretch their published ranges share is the 16.9 to 17.12-inch interval. That is 0.22 inches, about 5.6 mm.

How we worked this out

The overlap works out as min(17.12,18.5) minus max(15.15,16.9) = 0.22 inches, and 0.22 × 25.4 = 5.588 mm. These are manufacturer US dimensions. No independent measurement was taken.

The shorter user’s real problem can be hidden by a tall desk

To reach a fixed keyboard, a shorter user may raise either chair and then find the seat or foot position wrong. S100’s shorter minimum depth can address front-edge fit, but it does not lower the keyboard or guarantee floor contact once the chair is raised. If excessive depth was the original problem, C300’s deeper range helps even less. Check seat length and working height separately, and include a suitable foot-support arrangement if the desk calls for it.

How we worked this out

Differing depth ranges compared with a fixed-height desk. Leg length is not estimated from standing height, and no medical posture is prescribed.

The arm upgrade can be justified by an evening controller position

Someone who works at a keyboard and later holds a controller may value C300’s rear-pad tilt once seat depth fits, since it changes the pad angle for a different forearm position. S100 already has four-dimensional arms, so ordinary height and front-to-back adjustment are not what it lacks. Try the extra tilt with the device you use. C300 earns consideration for this specific reason and not because eight adjustments are always twice as useful as four.

How we worked this out

Documented pad tilt compared with a move from keyboard to controller. No reduced fatigue, strength or comfort performance is asserted.

Trade-offs

What each pick costs you

With SIHOO Doro S100

  • The UK enlarged-cushion listing describes a different fit range, so this comparison relies on US S100 dimensions.

With SIHOO Doro C300 Pro V2

  • A footrest is not included with the selected standard C300 Pro V2.

Change of plan

When the answer changes

Your required seat setting falls below 16.9 inches

Go with SIHOO Doro S100. The shorter published range is S100’s.

The setting you need goes past 17.12 inches

Go with SIHOO Doro C300 Pro V2. The longer published range is C300’s.

Decision guide

Before you buy

On paper a chair can have plenty of adjustments and yet every available seat setting may be too long or too short for the person using it.

Check these before you buy

  • Work from the US model measurements, and try the actual seat with your back against the backrest.
  • See where your head makes contact in recline, because an integrated upper support will not fit every neck position.

What this page can’t tell you

  • Rounding may affect the published depth values. The small overlap is neither a precision fit guarantee nor a medical assessment.
