As a whole the chair appears to be comfortable with the lumbar support and ability to tilt or lean back (or rock in my case) and I love the fact the arms can be moved out of the way. What I do find is the seat is a bit on the firm side making it uncomfortable without an added pad. I also wish the seat had its own tilt function but I knew this one didn't offer that when I purchased it. My son has the same chair and for him it's the best chair he's owned. He's of a smaller frame than I am and doesn't experience the same discomfort as I do. Would I recommend this chair to someone.........yes. Just because it might not work for me without added padding doesn't mean it's not a great chair.

This chair was the best purchase made this year as now my back feels just fine after all-day seating.

This chair is not bad IF you are a tall person (like over 6'2") I am 5'11" and the arms are too high and cause my wrist to hurt when I am on the computer using the mouse. Also the chair is kind of slanted down slightly towards the front of the chair so that I was sliding that way. Quality of the chair is good and fairly comfortable except for the things mentioned above.

Looks nice. Assembly okay except you might want a second person to hold the back while you attempt to line up the bolts and bolt holes. Instructions say hand tighten bolts first but you cannot do that without the included Allen wrench for the arm rests/back (as the holes for those are too deep to start the bolts by hand). Unfortunately the arm rests sit too high for us to use and comfortably type on a keyboard so we have to leave them up. Wish they were adjustable. Probably depends on the height of your desk. The most annoying thing (for those of us who are perfectionists or recovering perfectionists) is that our chair ended up sitting with a noticeable tilt to one side when finished. Seat says it's level but the back looks tilted. Nothing can be adjusted to resolve the tilt because the holes are pre-drilled. Aargh! We're using it as a desk chair (vs. gaming) so maybe that's our problem with the arm rests. We'll see how it holds up. The display model in the store seemed more comfortable than this one...not sure why...maybe because we weren't trying to use it at a desk/keyboard.
