Very very good chair for the price!

I'm 6'1" and 210lbs I fit in this chair very comfortably although the headrest isn't perfect for my height. My wife is about 5'3" and has no such issue. Overall this chair seems to be built very well. I think of it as a budget Herman Miller Aeron for my time working from home during Covid. 4.5/5 would recommend without hesitation
After 4 months of WFH I needed a better chair. It was the best fit for me of the dozen or so models I tried it at the store. It has not disappointed after a week in action. It was not hard to assemble and I am able to adjust it to match my height arm length etc. I like the tilt feature - that I can lock or unlock it depending on my mood. I am fairly short so it feels like the headrest should be a little lower but it still works. The chair compares very favorably to the expensive models purchased by firms for office use so it’s great value for the money.
Only issue is that the head rest is more of a Neck rest. I'm 5'10 (M) 176-180 Lbs The head rest doesn't go up or down much just the angle changes. still overall a great chair though. The seat is a bit aggressive in its curve at first buy it eventually stretches and settles down. Hopefully it doesn't breakdown we shall see.
The arms adjust up and down the tilt tension can be adjusted and of course the height. The headrest is also nice. The chair is very breathable. The sitting area does cradle your legs in a way that they are pushed away from the edges. It took about 30min to assemble while watching TV. Main reason for purchase is it was within the budget provided by my employer and came with good reviews.
My wife gave me this chair for xmas last year and I really like it. It is actually more comfortable than the Herman Miller chair I have a work which I would assume cost at least 3x the cost of this chair. I recently purchased a second chair for my wife and she loves it.
