Doesn't last long

Not sure exactly when I bought this though it is ripping hasn't been very long---maybe a few years. The mesh on the seat from the side resulting in not supporting my weight (I'm 120#) which results in me sitting on the hard frame.
This chair was pretty comfortable when I purchased it but now after a year the mesh on the bottom seat of the chair is worn out and I only weight 160-170 lbs. It doesn't feel supportive anymore and the front part of the bottom seat digs into the back of your legs. I wish I would have just saved more money and bought a used Herman Miller chair and not have to deal with getting another chair. I'm not sure if this would even be covered by the warranty.
This chair was just what I was looking for. Comfortable deep seat not too big ergonomic. And it was delivered to my door in 24 hours. Highly recommend.
It looked pretty complicated but was really easy. It took me a couple of hours because I recently had knee surgery and it is difficult to move around. The only frustrating part was the optional head rest. That was difficult to line up and get the two bolts in. The assembly diagrams are black-and-white and a little difficult to figure out. Some shading or larger cut-out pictures would have been very helpful. The finished product is very stable and comfortable and well-liked by my wife as her new home office chair.
I like that the arm rests can be optionally removed but doing so exposes what is a quality control issue which is that the plastic sides of the seat have rather sharp edges rather than smoothed out rounded corners as can be found on the upper back piece.
We just finished assembling the chair. Flat feet on the floor works for me at 5'9 but not for anyone smaller. My teenager does not have her quads perpendicular to the floor. The armrestsare not as adjustable as I thought. My teen wears an adult medium tshirt and the arm rests do not slide in enough to support her elbows and align with her shoulders. The height lever is very hard to use. I don't know if ours is broken from out of the box but it us so hard to use. This might become my tall husband's new gaming chair and I'll be on the look out for a better one for my daughter. Really disappointed on the arm rests for the MSRP price. Also note the wheels say only to be used on carpet. I did not notice that in the original description. The head rest was super frustrating to put on. Next time I'd put that on the back before attaching the back to the seat. I attached a picture of the arm rests as far in as they'd go.
Very comfortable and colorful chair! Matches our blue carpet perfectly! This chair provides excellent back support to anyone with lower back problems. Excellent purchase! Very happy with our new chairs!
