I originally bought this chair in 2020 during covid WFH. It's a great price and comfortable. However after 2 1/2 years the mesh started pulling away from the chair. So I bought another one figuring this was just normal wear and tear. After 2 1/2 years the plastic base on the 2nd chair cracked and the piston holding up the chair pushed through to the floor. So I cannot in good faith recommend this chair to anyone who needs it for daily use.

Hi Bonnie thanks for replying to our product review request. We appreciate you taking to time to let us know about your experience. ^BF
I've owned this chair for about about 10 months now and it squeaks so badly. I've soaked the undercarriage in lithium grease and for a little while the squeaks went away. However it only worked temporarily and now I can never make the squeak disappear. Greasing every so often doesn't makes some movements not squeak (only for a short while). There's always some squeaking! And why did Staples design this chair so that the edges are sharp. Sometimes I sit cross-legged on the chair and those edges will dig into my feet. This chair was cheap but I really regret buying it.
I don't think I would want to sit in this chair for really long periods of time - It may encourage me to take more breaks away from my desk throughout the day...which could be a good thing.
