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!!!

It feels much more stocky thank other chairs I used and better for my back!
I would recommend this to a friend!

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!

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

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

Okay gaming chair

The chair itself is pretty comfortable, but the armrests keep breaking off, and I have to constantly screw them back into place. I recommend a different chair if you're looking to get this.
