so i have had this chair for less than a year and i have already had to replace the base. that was about 3 months after buying it. the way the holders for the wheels are designed they are designed to fail. there is a thing you can 3d print on thingiverse to fix this issue. i opted to just take a base from another chair. as i write this i am now looking for a new tilt control mechanism as the weld where the piston goes into it has cracked. the chair itself is comfortable but the build quality is extremely poor cheap chairs from that big mart store last longer than this. i bought the chair in october. the base broke in januaryish. i was able to fix it for a bit but it didnt last. i got a used chair from a thrift store and took the base from tha. right after that i found the part on thingiverse to permanently fix it. it is now may and im having to replace another part.
I originally bought the Baird chair because it was on sale it was large and comfy however too big for my desk. I returned it for this chair which is much better for my setup. I am 5'10" 195 LBS. and this chair is just about the perfect size. The headrest could be a few inches taller and the support on the lower back could be a bit better and more firm (it kinda gives in). For comparison the Baird is more supportive and much larger/bulkier while this chair is just right in size but could be a little more supportive and maybe a few dollars cheaper. Still comfortable though. 4 stars.
Excellent chair. A little difficult to put together and the rocker mode was very hard to adjust. It was backwards from the assembly instructions. Having said all that it is very comfortable
Can't give it 5 stars yet because I just purchased it. I am 6-2 and 265 and needed a comfortable chair when I work from home. Set up was not very difficult. Chair is pretty comfortable so far.
