I bought this chair recently so I cannot speak to the longevity of the chair. It was easy to put together some parts are heavy. The chair fits well and the adjustments make it comfortable. One needs to follow the directions to adjust the chair; it is not always easy. I put my arm handles on backwards so I would have a place to hold on as I have hardwood floors so the chair could easily roll away as I sit. I also put them on backwards so they tilt down and fit under my sewing table even when raised to a higher position. The net backing is not slippery but rather gripping to help one sit properly but it might pull your clothes as suggested in other reviews. The chair rolls very easily along the floor without leaving marks. This chair replaced another Staples chair that was more office big chair type; this smaller ergo type chair is much more comfortable...nicer fabric than that leather like stuff that is hot and peels after awhile. This chair is nicely upholstered with non slippery fabric (not vinyl like the back). I am pleased with this chair. 4 stars because it cannot compete with a sewing "Heavenly" chair but then this price is 1/5 of that chair!
I am very pleased with this chair. It is comfortable good looking and I like the ergonomic design. It swivels and rolls smoothly. It also looks good; like one of those expense chairs. My only issue is the chair is not tall enough to raise me up high enough to use my keyboard at the correct angle. (My wrists should be below my elbows.) My desk is too tall. I love the chair but now I need to replace the desk. My advice: When you buy a chair aside from sitting in it know how high the seat must be so your arms are at the correct angle for typing on a keyboard.
Had a chair in the office for about 12 years and new it was time for some new ones. I specifically struggle with back problems and this chair has helped so much.. Would highly recommend.
This is a good chair easily adjustable and I like the breathability of the mesh back.

There are several things about this chair that we like in our office. The combination of a thick cushion seat and mesh back allows for the best of both worlds when it comes to sitting for long periods of time; no pressure points in the seat and back support with plenty of air circulation. The armrests are durable but just soft enough to be comfortable without the fragile crumbling seen in other synthetic foam materials. There are plenty of options for adjustment so most users can get pretty much any seating situation they need. The only limitations are the 250 lb. weight limit and the somewhat crude casters.
