I bought the chair to help alleviate a sore lower back problem. The chair is not as comfortable as the chair that I replaced but that one was irritating my back because it put me in a poor sitting position. This one holds me up straighter and give me lumbar support. My only issue with the chair is that the mesh fabric has too much resistance to sliding. While this is good for preventing slipping down while you work it does take getting into the chair a little more difficult. Overall I am happy with the chair and would recommend it to anyone interested in improving their sitting posture. As far as assembly is concerned I did not have any problems putting it together however if you are mechanically challenged you may need help.
Pros: I really enjoy the sturdiness and quality of this chair. It really supports the arch of your back but doesn’t sacrifice comfort. It will last me some time and I do recommend it to others! Cons: My only frustration was that the headrest couldn’t go any higher. I’m short (5’1”) but even at the highest level the headrest was hitting more of my neck than the back of my head. You can always lean back to take a break and rest your head that way which is what I’ve been doing but I was hoping for something that was higher.
I'm 5'3 petite female. I sit for 6-8 hours a day in my home office this is a very sturdy task chair designed for extended sitting. The key to finding the best chair is to make sure you get a chair with a rating for what you utilize it for. The mesh is supportive both on the butt and thighs and back. The seat bottom hits at a nice area behind my knees for a shorter petite person a lot of my other chairs had too large of a chair bottom and my knees were not supported. The lumbar support helps my lower back the head rest is nice because it has 3 tilt options. the arms also have adjustability at 3 different levels. The chair high has a nice range to move it up and down. It also has a tension feature that allows you to be able to lean back or keep the chair from leaning back (like rocking back n forth). I personally keep the tension tight so it doesn't lean back n forth to have good posture. All and all great chair for the price for extended sitting.
