The chair would be much better if the armrests wear adjustable outward. I’m a larger guy (265 lbs) but still within the weight capacity but the armrests feel a bit snug while I’m in the chair and it’s a little awkward to get out of. I may take the armrests off but that kind of ruins the chair. Honestly if I had gone to a store and tried it out first I would have bought something else.
Nice chair for the price. The easiest directions and organization of parts I’ve ever seen! Like others I didn’t like the position of the headrest but easy to remove.
I tried this in person at Staples and it's the best one in their offerings. Good option if you're not willing to dish out $500+ for an Aeron. The head rest adjustments are good the arm rest height adjustments are decent and the tilt options are great. The mesh material is high quality. Only complaints: 1. the rolling pins are not very smooth and can get stuck easily on carpet and 2. the arm rests are a bit uncomfortable on the elbows. Assembly was pretty straight forward and took ~20mins.
I did NOT want to return this chair. I wanted to enjoy it for many years

Sadly I had to return it. Fortunately I am happy with Staples return policy. The lumbar support is ill-designed. After comparing it to my office chair at the office I realized the difference. The padded lumbar support is supported by to small and relatively pointed piece of plastic which dig into my back. Other chairs have more of a "paddle" support behind the padded portion. It is difficult to believe that this wasn't realized in even the most marginal and elementary research and design phase. This could have easily been avoided and a good chair produced.
