It took me a couple days to get used to as I never had a mesh chair before. I always went for the big cushion types. I am glad I switched. Like I said it took a few days but once I got used to it my bad back never felt better. Its narrow enough to fit under my desk and tilts. It was so comfortable when I sat in the one in the store I started to wonder if I put it together wrong. Speaking of putting it together I have to give props to the gentleman who helped me in the store. He actually knew about putting this particular chair together and gave me a heads up when buying it. Excellent customer service...and props to Staples themselves they had their whole supply of chairs put together at the store so you try them all out. All the other stores I went to looking for a new chair were showing me pictures or told to go to the web page. Major league customer service award to the Westbury store on Old Country road.
Only downside is the cushion on the front. It's a lot firmer than the rest of the seat so when you sit your thighs might get uncomfortable. Might just be a matter of breaking it in.
Chair seems a little smaller than I remember the one in the store. It also appears a bit flimsier than I remember. It is comfortable but the headrest will not stay where in one position it drops down as soon as you get out of the chair. Styling is cool...
