I am a computer programmer who works from home. I bought this chair about a year ago because my old one broke and this was the most comfortable option at my local store. At first it looked cool and was quite comfortable. But a year later the padding in the seat is starting to sag and the "leather" is starting to flake off along the front edge of the chair where my legs rest. For those of you unfamiliar with "bonded" leather imagine spray painting a micro-thin layer of latex on top of a foam cushion and then sitting on the cushion for a year. That is the durability to expect. Keep in mind that I am not large (~140 lbs) and the only aggressive activity this chair sees is holding me as I sit typing at a keyboard. I will say that the chair is comfortable enough but it is disappointing to buy a chair and have it start falling apart within a year.
We must have looked & sat in 20 chairs. I spend many hours sewing as a hobby & require good back support. This is the chair I’ve been looking for I love it so far & it looks great in my sewing room.
I purchased 3 of these computer/gaming chairs in red blue and green for my teenage boys. They are very happy with them and love the style and comfort while they spend hours gaming on their computers! Comfort is the key but they sure do look sporty in their rooms.
My daughter wanted this chair for online learning but our closest store was out of the color she wanted. The clerk walked us over to the in store kiosk and guided us through purchasing the chair online. Not only did we get a better price but we were able to pick up at a nearby store within the hour. Excellent service at both ends for just what we wanted.
