Great chair for the price

Bought this on sale which is very well worth it but honestly even at full price it's still pretty decent. It's a great quality mesh chair with great comfort and standard adjustability. (seat height and lean tension) Honestly I can't even tell the difference between this and a $1000 mesh chair the only thing being the $1000 ones have more adjustment options. Not an issue at all if you don't even use those. Overall it's on a small side but I have a small build (5'8" and slim) so I have zero problems with it. If you have a wider body build this can be a pretty small chair for you. The seating area is shallower than my previous desk chair which I actually like because my last one was too deep for me.
Only been using the chair for a few weeks but it's totally working out great. Was looking for a mesh lined chair for my studio that was in my budget and I'm pleased with the result. Set some time aside because the chair does take some time to assemble. Also I was pleased to find out that attachment of the head rest was optional.
I like several things about the chair. I like mesh chairs in general and this one is comfortable. The seat curls down in the front so it does not cut into your legs behind the knees. The seat does not extend very far which a shorter user might enjoy. I am average height so this feels a little odd but is not terribly uncomfortable. The one real issue I have is that the back is not high enough. It is so low that the head rest actually hits me in the shoulders. I stand less than 6 feet tall so I am not a giant. I think the back would be better if it were about 3 inches higher.
