Good value and reasonable comfort

I'm a big fan of mesh back and seat chairs. They're great for year round cool seating and they don't collect dirt dust or cat hair. In fact I bought this chair for my home office and the cat refuses to sit in it which is a bonus. I bought it after having had an upscale version at work for years. I do find that this version is less comfortable and mesh fabric is much rougher. You may find as I do that it is rough on your low back when you're wearing thin clothing. Overall I would recommend the chair it's a little less comfortable but I bought it on sale and it is a good value compromise.
Very easy to assemble. Firm support yet comfortable. Mesh construction prevents perspiration often cooling. Edge of seat with height adjusted to allow your feet to be flat on the floor prevents the restriction of lower leg circulation that my former chair caused. Rolls extremely easily over thin carpeted flooring. Highly recommended at this sale price.
Had spinal surgery last year and needed an ergonomic office chair. I thought I would have to pay a lot of money ANGELA go for one with the three paddles for adjustment - wrong! I sampled several chairs in the store including a three paddle and settled on this. It reminded me of sitting in a bucket seat of a 1964 sting ray. Have used it for a week and all is well. I suggest you go to the store and try them on and I bet you like this one best!
My husband and I each got one for our home office. We were looking for something a little "fancier" but once we sat in this chair we were hooked. It is very comfortable and low profile (perfect if you don't have a ton of space in your office for a big bulky chair). The ability to "recline" is great; it is very sturdy though. So it only reclines if you push back against it and then comes right back when you sit up straight - no lever adjustment required. The mesh seat is very comfortable too! And at $129.00 on sale we couldn't beat that price! We also looked at the TempurPedic chairs at Staples (that are almost $300 each) and found this one to be much more comfortable. We highly recommend this chair.
We are very happy with this home office/computer chair. The mesh seat and back offer good support and comfort. Easy to adjust height of chair and adjustable armrests are well placed. The back has good tension out of the box and is adjustable for those wanting more or less tension. Back also locks in position when you find your happy position. The headrest mounts too low for my six foot height. As reported by other reviewers the headrest is shoulder/neck height. The five-leg base is very stable. Solid product for a good price.
