Good chair for the price

The chair is very good. The lumbar support works well and the arms are adjustable up/down. You can adjust the tilt of the back and the height of the chair. The head rest is low for taller people. i am 6' tall and when I lean back it hits me in the shoulders. You can adjust the angle of the head rest but not the height. While it doesn't have all the features of the more expensive chairs (Seat pan adjustment arm tilt in/out) it is a comfortable chair for the price and good for the home office. Would have given it 5 stars if the head rest was adjustable. You can just take the headrest off.
This chair is perfect for someone who is smaller in stature. I'm 5'2" and this chair fits me perfectly. The chair pan is smaller as well so it is very comfortable. If you are on the tall side you may want to consider another chair. This chair is great for those who are a bit shorter.
The chair is comfortable however the head rest is not adjustable and depending on your torso length can be uncomfortable. I’m 5’4 and struggled to sit in it comfortably without having the head rest digging into my back. Sent my chair back and purchased one with an adjustable head.
Pre-assembled headrest was so tight it couldn't be adjusted straight out of the box. Assembly time was about 1/2 hour. I have a boney butt the seat has no padding just mesh. Not enough for me. Of note: I use a gel seat cushion. Even with the gripper side down the cushion would shift when leaning to one side or the other.
This office chair has most of the features of and is as comfortable as higher priced chairs. It is well built and durable. After visiting several office supply stores and sitting in and manipulating similar chairs in all price ranges I found this chair to be the best value for the price.
