the chair seems fine - but anyone ordering this chair to use with a drafting table will be sorely disappointed. The thing is extremely low - when the whole point of a drafting chair is that it’s high…….
This chair is so much more comfortable than the bar stool I'd been using for years. Everything is as described..seat and arms very comfortable & so easy to adjust.

Tall Bar stool-ish Chair

Overall it is a good tall stool/chairr and would be an automatic five stars if it did not tilt forward. Be aware that it is indeed a tall seat it is not made for a typical desk. I converted a drafting table to use as my desk. I added a suspended slide tray for my keyboard and mouse. Using a drafting table allows me to stand or sit without the need to spend a few hundred for a lift desk. This stool/chair is tall and comfortable. But- (I have seen this in other reviews)- Whenever I sit the seat tilts forward. This is very uncomfortable and very annoying to continually try to concentrate on work while trying to balance the entire time I am sitting. After being totally disgusted I decided to put shims under the front bolts between the chair base and seat. The shims are approx. 1/4" thick. You can easily see the shims on my pic. I will give it some time to see if the chair continues to NOT tilt forward any longer. If necessary I will change the 1/4" shims for a 3/8" shims. (And I will shape them to fit and be hidden once I am satisfied that the chair is no longer tilting forward.
I was worried the price of the chair would mean cheap quality. This is such a great chair. I love it and sit on it for most of the day in my in home office. I highly recommend!!!
This chair is high quality with good back support which is why I bought it to use as my shop stool. My son turned me onto this chair as he also uses it as a shop stool! I highly recommend this chair. It is very stable and easily moves on the casters.
