My wife purposed this computer and desk chair into a sewing station chair. She adores it. It's comfortable has great lumbar support and it's sturdy. Adjusts easily and swivels nicely. She thought the arms might impede her range of motion but they did not as she swivels about 90° or more routinely and the arms are low enough to clear her table. You cannot remove the arms as they tie the seat and back together. I thought I might need a socket set to assemble but the supplied allen wrench did the trick and except for a punch like an awl or a Phillips (see next statement) it's all you need. 8 of the 10 bolts must go into fixed nuts hidden behind the fabric so you must feel for the location and then punch a hole through the material and poke the bolt through- so do this correctly or you'll have holes where they shouldn't be. Tighten everything real tight. Buy this chair. Great value in my and my wife's opinion. Looks good too.
This chair is very similar to the Bruckner #069025 chair we purchased at Staples on Jan. 25 2014 but more comfortable. We wore that chair out and hope that this one will serve us equally well. We like it very much.
