I’m 6’5” not very “big” and I hate how most chairs leave my knees up because the seat doesn’t go high enough. Seat width is comically huge but super comfortable because it is. The seat has me leaning a little further back than I would like while resting while it’s upright only downside. Comfortable to sit in for long hours.
Big sturdy and went together with comparative ease. Instructions were clear. Upholstered seat seems not as rugged as my prior chair but we will see regarding durability.

Driscott Chair

Very comfortable chair. We tried every one of them in the store before settling on this one for long term use.
I went on line and found a perfect Office Chair for me (6'5" and 235 lbs) and it was reasonably priced with zero shipping costs. I ordered it it arrived in less than a week. Some assembly required but it was relatively easy. I am using the chair and it is working out.
I was doubtful that this chair would meet my expectations. It went beyond. The comfort and build is outstanding. I made a good choice.

Pushes You Forward

This would have been a great chair if it didn't push you off every minute It has a tilt at the front of the cushion causing it to make you slide forward. That is the only downside of this chair which is the most important. I am taking it back as I need something I can be comfortable on and not having to adjust myself constantly. The chair is sturdy and huge. It's so huge that it's pretty hard to roll and maneuver around in it. Mistake on my part I didn't try it out before I bought it only because they didn't have a floor model in the store.
I’ve only been using the chair for three days and it seems to be pretty good so far. The armrests are not as easy to adjust as I would like - you have to push in the button with one hand and use the other hand to lift or lower the rest. Also the instructions never mentioned that you might need a second person to help with assembly especially putting the seat on the base. The seat and back are heavy so unless you have really good upper arm strength or a second person there is no just lifting the seat and settling it on the base. You have to put the seat and back on its side push the base on then slowly list the chair upright. Not as easy oa you would think!
I knew when I ordered it that it was for a big and tall person. I was surprised how wide the chair was and thought this is not going to be good because I was leaning to one side to use the armrest. Well after a few day I was finding this chair very comfortable. I really like the chair now and I’m in it for 8-9 hrs a day and very comfortable. Glad I bought it
