I really like it but.....

I like the chair a lot, but this is the second chair I've gotten like this and both of them started to squeak. On my second chair I pre- lubricated it with axel grease, still on just the 3rd day it has started squeaking. When it does I can feel it through the seat.
If you get this chair make sure you get the insurance because the wheel will break off and the fake leather stuff they use flakes off everywhere, especially on the arm rests. Other then the wheels breaking and the plastic leather stuff flaking off, it is still working. Its still a chair. But get the insurance and the first sign of flaking, file an insurance claim to get your gift card for the purchase price, and then immediately legally dispose the chair like they say after they give you a staples gift card. DO NOT Get 5 minute epoxy to fix the wheel issue, and don't just live with a few flakes on your discounted chair that now works. Make sure you throw away that broken furniture.
I actually use these as office chairs at work and I have one at my desk at home as well. They are just so comfortable...I have a little bit of a bad back and this is the only chair I've found that I can sit in for any length of time with out it kinking my back up.
