Great ergonomic chair. Just avoid a repackaged one.

Th chair is easy to assemble has multiple adjustments and the mesh makes it breathable and supportive for all pressure points. I am 6'1 and the maximum height is just about right for me. I could have probably used another inch. The headrest is not very useful for me either. So if you are above 6' I would recommend trying the chair before buying. I am not sure if there are taller options available. The first box I got looked like it was repackaged. The seat and back were still in original cover so I did not give it much though. It was after I bolted together all the parts and try to attach the base to the seat that I found out that the main pillar that support the seat and adjusts height was broken and had metal piece sticking out from the bottom that should not have bene visible. Had to haul it back to Staples and get another one. The associate saw the issue right away and exchanged it. It was probably returned earlier due to the same issue and whoever repackaged it did no notice the damage. So frustrated by the extra trip and having to assemble the chair twice.
My back ached every day. It got bad enough that pandemic or not I finally went to Staples to try out new chairs. This one felt right and supported my lower bask at the same time. The chair cost more than most but is definitely worth it.
If you're shorter than 5'4" the neck rest (non adjustable) may sit awkwardly on the back of your head. If you don't mind it's a very comfy chair for long days of sitting at a desk. After using for a week I'm already seeing an improvement in hip problems I was having from sitting on a stiffer chair. Assembly was easy to do.
My only complaint is that the all-plastic wheels don't roll as easily on my slick floor as my last few chairs have and they turn sideways and slide. I will probably put down something on the floor to fix that at some point. The rest of the chair is great.
This chair is so comfortable. I would buy it again. So glad I made this choice. Appreciated the salesman who was very patient and answered all my questions.
This chair was easy for my 13yo to assemble and is quite comfortable. Everybody's posture is better and we like the smaller scale from the last TOO BIG chair we had. Overall happy with the purchase!
