So far so good with some caveats
on December 17, 2016

The chair is decent. Easy enough to assemble. It's comfortable to a point but not great for bigger/taller people over long sitting periods. (I'm 6'2" 240lbs). The back is adjustable and has a locking mechanism. The neck support is really wonky. It helps but does not maintain its position and has limited adjustability. It's a good chair for 4-5 hours of sitting for someone under 200lbs.

OK Product less than expected based on pictures

Head rest had to be removed for the chair to be usable. I would think this is necessary for anyone 5'10" and up. Picture online makes it look like chair is comprised of some chrome metal; it is plastic painted grey.

Unable to assemble
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: Paula K.
Couldn't get the first step done - putting in the castors. Called the service phone line and they basically said it was hard and you think you might break it. Of course that could be printed in the instructions. I kind of thought the 5 castors went in the 5 legs which is all the instructions (i.e. diagram) said. Not something for someone that isn't used to this. Have to return.

Well made heavy chair is comfortable and gave me pride of accomplishment in the relatively easy assembly
on December 14, 2016
Posted by: Paula K.
Assembled it it under an hour. This might not sound impressive but it's the first office chair I've ever assembled. Have to say Im very glad it arrived in a few pieces because the box was labeled gross weight approximately 53 pounds and i needed the chair up a flight of stairs so piece by piece was easier than lugging the whole chair. It was almost comical how the various metal screws were packaged with labels and color coding but I suppose it helped to keep track of which step required how many screws because they all seemed to be the same size. Also thoughtful that the little wrench for the screws was included. I chose to not install the arms because I don't like office chair arms so it was fortunate that the arms were a modular separate component whose absence doesn't affect the integrity of the chair. An acquaintance said she would have installed the arms and left off the head rest (which i did install) so obviously the chair is somewhat customizable. The mesh seat and back feel like they will allow excellent air circulation hence cooling in upcoming summer months.The chair swivels very smoothly and the gas lift has so far worked as designed. The rockback range is set just the way i want it and i feel secure that the chair won't tip over when i lean back. I did have one tiny problem with assembly: one of the five casters didn't insert all the way into the underside of the five-legged base but since it did go in far enough to stay inserted when i flipped the chair right side up and sat down the caster was forced in the rest of the way and remains in place.

Comfortable for my very tall fiance
on December 12, 2016
Posted by: Paula K.
My fiance is 6 feet and 5 inches tall so finding the right chair for him can be a challenge. He also deals with sciatica shoulder and neck pain. He has given this chair my present to him two thumbs up! It's comfortable and he can work at his desk without neck and shoulder pain now and his legs and feet are pretty straight and even. If you are struggling with aches and pain while at the desk it might just be your chair! It's worth every penny to get the right one and this was an awesome deal. Even looks pretty cool!

Great chair. Very comfortable. Super easy to put together. The head rest could be a little higher but I am a tall guy so expected it. Price was spot on.
