I bought this chair for a colleague who's previous chair had been used and abused for decades (or at least appeared to have been). He was hard against a new chair even after a bad breakup the former chair had initiated after a long 9 hour Monday. This chair is AWESOME was his response after a week of use. Everything he had been missing in support and mobility for so long has been restored. Assembly was a breeze and completed in less than 20 min. Well worth the purchase and definitely a head turner to other coworkers as they head to their own tired old office chair.
I believe this is designed for teenagers or lightweight people. For me the seat bottoms out hard. It is well made comfortable apart from that and I really like the solid flip-up armrests because they would be in the way when I am actively typing. I would give it a 5 star but for the weak/poor padding on the seat.
