I use the chair daily and in the few months I have owed it I would not recommend buying. The base of the chair makes a loud scraping noise like metal grating on metal (not ideal on video or conference calls) and cannot be eliminated with oil. This morning the part that holds the right arm pad to the arm frame broke and the arm pad lifts off the arm frame. I expected the chair to last longer than 6 months.
Comfortable chair BUT ... rocking-lock has too much play in it. When locked it rocks back a little and it shouldn't. I had to get a metal wedge out of my shop and drive it into the rear of the assembly so the chair would stay in the upright position. Means I can't rock it back but I'm willing to give that up to gain a proper sitting position.
I knew when I tried this chair out in the store that it was for me! It’s so comfortable on the back and arms..sometimes I forget it’s an office desk chair. It wasn’t hard to put together and instructions and hardware are detailed.
I have to admit I’m a chair snob and like to be completely comfortable. I bought this chair while working remotely from home and I am happy with it. It’s a keeper.
