When finally assembled the chair is very comfortable. I like the mesh back which will keep me cooler in warm weather. However I did have two problems. During the assembly I encountered three places where it was extremely difficult to insert the screws. It took a lot of pressure to start them and one in particular would not tighten completely. It didn't seem to affect the tightness of the assembly. When I finished the assembly I was unable to get the tilt mechanism to work. Finally I contacted the manufacturer and a replacement was sent out immediately. I replaced it and have been using it for two days. I really like the chair and the quick service from the manufacturer.
I am in real estate and I sit for long periods of time in this chair. I find it really comfortable. I have a lot of trouble usually finding a comfortable chair because I'm short I'm not quite 5'3" and most chairs cut off my circulation even when lowered all the way. This chair has a nice soft pan and plenty of back support. I also like that the arms are very adjustable and I can lower them or raise them as needed depending on what I'm doing.
This chair is very comfortable. Even more importantly it has nice options for such a low price. The seat is short enough for me to be able to sit back and still work comfortably on my computer. Since I tend to lean on the left armrest it is nice to be able to raise only that arm getting rid of the back pain caused by leaning. The armrests are nice and wide for resting on but can get in the way when typing. The natural shape of the back of the chair helps with posture but the built in adjustable lumbar support is an absolute waste. It does not work and I am looking for a way to force it to stay in an upper position permanently. So far no other problems with the chair.
You know I got this chair more so because of the comfortable and nice looking backing but having a friendly bottom really helps out too. The assembly process was rather intuitive it just took some time. So far no squeaks! I have yet to fall over in the chair from dozing off in it while working on some trivial work. Otherwise this chair is a good buy for the money.
Quality for the price and makes me sit up straight. Seat adjustment controls are simple to use. Assembly was easy. I used a socket wrench rather than the tool (an allen wrench) that came with the chair.
