I bought this chair and was really excited. I sat in every chair in the store and this was "the one". However after 2 weeks of use the mesh in the seat starting pulling apart and staples popping. I was so heartbroken. I work from home and spend 8 - 10 hours a day in an office chair. This chair was rated for that amount of time and 250lbs. I'm not at that weight and used the number of hours recommended. However their customer service and exchanging of the chair was a very easy process. Thus why it gets a 2 instead of a 1.
Excellent for lumbar spine support. Reasonable and effective. Can be a bit difficult to assemble though. Overall very good chair for people looking for lumber spine support. Thanks NBADOLA
I bought this chair for work since I'm sitting at a desk about 8 hours a day. The first thing I noticed was that the material provides support for lumbar and seat cushion (meaning my butt doesn't feel completely flat as a board after sitting a long time). It's much cooler as well since the mesh allows for breathability (perfect for this incredibly humid weather we've been having.) I actually detached the armrest since it doesn't fold or move out of the way and sits right where my desk is which prevents me from scooting all the way under my desk as I prefer. Plus I've heard that using armrests can lead to carpel tunnel so they are sitting in the bottom drawer at the ready should I choose to reattach them. The headrest has been pretty much useless as I am never leaning back in the chair but a great feature to have. Overall I'm in love with this chair and glad I chose this one over the OD one that is double in price or a Herman Miller for 4-5 times more.
awesome chair. love it. only the arm handles rattle a little which can be annoying if you move your arms alot not the case with me though so I am happy
I have road tested this chair and find that it has support in all the right places is cool and comfortable to sit in and adjusts to many different positions with one exception. the head rest does NOT adjust up and down for taller people. While it does swivel front to back that is not enough to rest one's head comfortably while leaning back for a quick break from the desk. It rolls smoothly around on the floor or on a chair mat. It rolls smoothly enough that you can adjust the wheels so that the legs can be out of your way with just a little bit of heel action one way or the other. Over all I would highly recommend this chair especially if you accompany it with a decent sized hard floor mat if you have carpeting on your office floor.
Chair was very easy to put together. All parts labeled clearly and it only took about six steps to finish. Mesh seat back and headrest are extremely cool and comfortable. Base construction is solid. Hardware is also very good quality. Using the chair on carpet and rollers still allow fairly good movements. Chair has great adjustability allowing for adjustment of many parameters you wouldn't expect. You can even adjust the width of the armrests. The neck support is a nice feature that I have grown to love.
Overall it met my expectations. The arm rests don't go out wide enough but I'll live. The only major complaint I have was in the assembly of the product. After much extra work I learned the plastic base wasn't drilled properly so I couldn't get the screw in the hole. Thank goodness I have extra tools that can re-did a hole so the crew would fit or I'd be irked! If I didn't have to do all that extra work I would give it 4 stars. I also can't adjust the chair positions to my liking but having the breathable mesh makes it a good chair.
