Verified Purchase:Yes
Sturdy; great assembly instructions with simple hardware; multiple adjustments available = perfect gift for those of us new to telework. Humor: my beloved spouse was not pleased to rad "Scale" on the box when she unwrapped this gift LOL.
Got this chair for x-mas to replace an old wooden favorite that broke after ~50 years continuous service. Box is fairly heavy. Chair is easy to put together all screws are color coded for the different assembly parts (arm rests back under chair piston assembly) and all can be installed with the single provided Allen Wrench. Total assembly time about 15 minutes leisurely. Comfy to sit on head rest is adjustable and OK for people ~ 5’2" - 6’2”. Not sure if I (and my kids) will get 50 years out of this one but initial quality impression is positive.
I assembled this myself. Directions were precise and they package each piece for each stage of construction separately. No room for TLDR here. No screwing with the wrong screw because they all look the same and Nice Pictures! Having put office chairs together before I kept thinking "ok here comes the tough part." Never really got there though a few possible gotchas if you are like I am blond when I'm not gray. For those embarking on this adventure: 1) don't break down the big box it comes in until after you are finished. Use it to hold the seat while you fasten the back on. 2) If you have arthritic thumbs make sure you have a handy allen wrench set with a comfort handle (good for any furniture assembly). 3) The casters really don't want to seat completely at first. Be firm. Make them fit all they way in or you'll tip over later when you want to set the seat by sitting on it (alliteration is extra). 4) When attaching the optional head rest set the chair on its side. Screwing things in upside down is not only screwy (lefty loosey and righty tighty get really confusing) but if you drop a screw or an allen wrench the chair back will eat them. I had to retrieve both from jaws of that beast during my trials. However I'm seated comfortably now and hope (no I insist!) this will make my work day more cheerful. Do buy Do build. And enjoy!
I have had my chair for 5 months and it was easy to assemble and has been comfortable so far. I like the adjustable lumbar support adjustable arms and adjustable head support. It was on sale when I bought it and for being under $200 it's made well and one of the best office chairs I have used. I like the mesh seating so it stays cool and light. Overall a great chair for every day use.
Needed a new chair for my home office setup. This one arrived on time fairly easy assembly. The instructions were good the packaging and color coding on the hardware provided was helpful. So far so good.
