I chose this chair based on an online picture. My fingers were crossed. It was delivered on time and packaged very well. My husband even commented on how well it was packaged and easy to assemble. When I got to sit on it I was very happy. I have nerve pain from my back and needed something with good cushion. This provided it and I find it very comfortable.
Bought two of these chairs based solely upon reviews for our home office. I found the assembly instructions simple and clear. 1. Color coding of screws: I don't have to dump all of the parts out onto the floor and sort them out into little piles measuring them against the photo in manual. Good. 2. Allen key is included: I don't have to look around the basement for additional tools. Very good. I'll admit like other reviewers have mentioned the wheel castors do not fit easily into the socket. You need to press VERY FIRMLY and turn clockwise at the same time (ahem...information that should be included in the assembly instructions) however that aside it wasn't an impossible feat. I'm a 5'9" 140 lbs. female and with a bit of determination was able to install them myself in under a half hour. I chose not to install the arms because it was a better fit for our desk space. The cushion is incredibly comfortable great lumbar support and nice tilt feature. The wheels are well made and roll smoothly on our carpet. For use reference I sit in mine about 20 hours a week my husband about 40 hours a week. Overall at this price point this far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend!
It is NOT black. It is relatively small. We were able to leave off the arms so it fits well in front of my sewing table. Comfortable. Rolls well. Very pleased with my purchase.
