It's a little less cushy than my old one; but it's not uncomfortable. It's practical and easy to push in and out on a carpet. Not unhappy with my purchase.
I waited patiently until this chair was on sale and that is only beacuse I've tried/reviewed many others in my local Staples. If you are looking to spend a decent amount and want a chair that fulfills a home office purpose just get this. Don't waste your money and spend more than $150 on any other chair in Staples unless you are a CEO and want a high-end sheep/lambskin leather work of art. This is as good as it gets for under $100. Enough said.
