I am not a big person and have little natural padding to sit on a chair seat. Moving to a mesh chair seems to make a big difference in comfort. The true test will be when my next project requires sitting at my desk/computer for 10–plus hours or my next all–nighter. This chair is well–designed ergonomically and easily adjusted from desk height to keyboard height. The lumbar support is acceptable with its up and down adjustment but could be improved by adding a forward adjustment. I believe its value is worth the price.
I bought this at 25% off during the summer of 2020 specifically for working from home. I was replacing an old chair with a seat that had flattened out. There are a couple problems I have with this chair: 1. After about 6 months of use the seat cushion had compressed significantly. I'm 5'11" 150 lbs well within the weight capacity of this chair and I use it about 8-10 hours a day 5-6 days a week. The seat has compressed to the point where there is very little give anymore and it feels like I'm sitting directly on metal all day giving me leg pain and general discomfort. I'm shifting positions much more than I did when I initially got it. I may try the warranty but I have no confidence that a replacement cushion will last any longer than the original. The thought of replacing the seat every few months until the warranty expires is wasteful and ridiculous. 2. The seat is about a half inch higher off the floor on one side. I have checked all the bolts and this is definitely a manufacturer issue not an assembly mistake. If I adjust the arms to the same setting then push the chair up to a desktop they will not meet the desktop at the same height. Not super noticeable in day to day use but still annoying. I have scoliosis and already slightly lean to one side I don't need my chair to lean for me. In my opinion this chair has some significant quality issues. It might be fine for smaller people and/or short periods of use. But for all other use cases I would not recommend it.
I weigh far less than what this product is rated for but I had to get two replacement seats in the last year and a half because the seats keep breaking.
