Chair teams up- poorly made

Chair will tear up. Back breaks away staples fall out. Plus with Staples exceptionally poor service you only have 14 days to return. I would not buy this chair (or any "Staples" branded product.
I work from home and got this for my home office because I needed a chair I could sit in 8+ hours a day. Very nice at first. Very supportive very upright--not a chair that encourages slouching. And the price is good considering what you might pay elsewhere for a chair with a comparable design. My only criticism at first was that the neck support sat too low to be effective (it kind of poked me in the shoulders instead of being high enough to cradle the neck) I ran into a big problem after about a year though. The mesh started to loosen or stretch a bit and now it sages a bit in the middle and presses in on my hips and thighs when I sit in it. t's actually screwing up my hips noticeably over the past month. If I'm away from it for the weekend or on day trips the pain starts to go away. Now I have to look at getting a new chair. I don't have a body that should put a lot of strain on the chair (about 5'11'' and 195 pounds in good health). I don't know if I got one that's a little defective or if this has happened to other people. I probably wouldn't get this chair over again but would spend the extra money and get the one that has a solid cushion base.
This chair has not let us down! We were in the market for a new chair for the home office but didn't want to spend too much on it either. This chair is so much better than the last one we had. It offers tons of support and my back no longer hurts when I sit for longer periods of time.
this chair is a Christmas gift .. I received a chair similar to this one as a Christmas gift a few years ago and it is the most comfortable chair I have sat in at my desk
This was a chair I purchased on black Friday UT was relatively easy to setup and is very comfortable the mesh material makes it an excellent choice for those who suffer from their back overheating as the material let's air circulate. It is very adjustable and has built in lumbar support. Great choice!
This chair is an improvement over the leather "executive" chair I bought from Staples a few years ago. I fell apart much sooner than it should have beginning with plastic caps the covered the ends of the legs and were held on by hollow molded pegs that fit into pre-drilled holes in the legs. The pegs broke off and glue wouldn't hold them back on. That said the new chair is seat is not very comfortable because it doesn't have enough "give " and the back leans backward far too easily even though I have changed the tension on the adjustment to its maximum point.
