This is a very comfortable chair. It's great for tall people. It is easy to assemble.

Meh Chair
on March 17, 2026
Posted by: Anon
The chair was on sale, for the price im wasn't impressed. After a few months like others the seams are comming apart. One of the arms broke off where you place your arms when you sit. After 2 weeks teh chair wouldn't even stay up where you set it. Not sure how everyone else gave this product 4 stars

The thing rotates and bends in every direction to allow whatever posture you want. I added a cushion lab cushion set so I can’t tell you how comfortable it is by itself. Had to rebuy using asurion gift card after armrest broke off.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hot garbage

Only 1 year old and all the seams under the knee area are broken wide open. The arm rests have no locking mechanism so they are forever clicking and moving. Save your money! Waste!!!

Should have known better after the first chair that they break easily and not comfortable. I purchased in Dec 2025 and the armrest has broken off

Super Comfortable Chair
on May 14, 2026

I work from home 3 days a week and spend a lot of other time in front of my computers in this chair. It is super comfy. My only complaint is that it only lasted just over a year. But I do have a lot of chair time in it.

Arms are not stable. Keeps sliding off and cannot reattach them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
