This is still new but so far so good. I sit in this chair in front of a monitor for far too many hours a day. I like the back the flexibility and the curve. The chair looks nice as well seems to be constructed well. I especially like the arms as they are not stationary and thus I can easily push the chair under my desk. I agree with the 4.5 rating not quite a 5 but giving it the benefit of a doubt even though it is early. BTW construction was average not too difficult.
