Ergonomic High-Back Office Chair with Flip-Up Arms, Adjustable Lumbar Support, Height Adjustable, 29.5"D x 27.5"W x 44.75"H, Black

I initially purchased another product from Amazon to replace my old home office chair. The other chair was good-looking and easy to assemble, but the lumbar support was anemic. I gave it away to a colleague's college-aged son. It works for him. This chair is excellent and very easy to assemble. The lumbar support is substantial and dynamically adjusts with the chair's recline. Sitting straight up and working, the support is comfortably firm. Tilted back, the support relaxes like reclining in a well-worn baseball mitt. The quality of the material, stitching, and padding is excellent. The lift range is longer than other chairs I've had, so finding a comfortable height for any activity is easy. I'm a guitar player and record at my desk, so the retractable arms are convenient. The back might appear to support the neck or head in the photos. It does not. I'm six feet, and the padded upper back settles comfortably at my upper shoulder blades. As I said in the headline, the chair is a bit larger than I expected for my little home office, but it's comfy.

When I assembled this chair, I ran into a problem that I was eventually able to solve, but I couldn’t find any instructions that would have shown me how. So to save yourself some time and stress: when you attach the back of the chair to the seat, you will need to connect a metal tongue protruding from the back piece to a similar part protruding from the seat. But it may seem like the piece from the back isn’t long enough for the two parts to connect properly. What I didn’t realize at first is that you might have to pull the part sticking out from the back with some force in order to get it into position. The reason is that the part on the back is meant to move in and out: it actually operates the mechanism that makes the lumbar support protrude when you sit up straight but retract when you lean back. So if it’s not sticking out far enough, just pull it smoothly but firmly until it comes out all the way, and you should be able to connect the parts as per the instructions without difficulty. This is a big, strong, sturdy, comfortable desk chair. It’s a good choice for a biggish person who wants a lot of support while sitting. The price is quite reasonable. But it takes up a fair amount of floor space, it’s heavy, and the arms are wide set, so if you’re not a tall person, you might not be able to rest both your elbows at the same time. I suspect that a medium-to-small person might be happier with a more modestly sized alternative.

The deal on the brown leather chair was too good to pass up. I chose the brown leather versus the black leather chair and saved about $60 but the truth is that the brown chair looks better (in my opinion) than the black chair. The assembly couldn't have been simpler and the chair was up and working within 10 minutes. After making a few. adjustments, I have a comfortable and supportive executive office chair. I am able to lean back and rock the chair slightly if I would like too. So far with daily use, I have not tired of the look or feel of this chair. The leather seating area seems durable but time and use will end up telling the truth about the quality of the seating surface. I would definitely recommend this chair for the $109 that I spent and I would be willing to spend $200 or more after using the chair for the past two weeks.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I must have looked at 100 chairs and have owned a few....this is by far the best chair I have ever owned and I spend a good 8-10 hours in it every day......It supports so well and flip up arm rests means it can fit under the desk and out of the way when it is not in use. It has excellent lumbar support and my butt doesn't hurt for once in ages....Ease of assembly, don't really need the instructions if you've put one of these chairs together before. <My only gripe are the wheels....They are hard plastic and they sound cheap and terrible on tile, so I switched them to the quiet nylon wheels I had on my old chair....now I have the best of both worlds. Height adjustment: Height adjustment and locking and unlocking the back rest are done by two small paddle actuators on either side of the chair.

I bought this for my music studio where I move around a lot to and from the desk. I was also able to raise the arms and play guitar, mandolin and fiddle. It was very comfortable for the few hours I used it, after I put it together. Assembly was really easy. I only needed to look at the pictures to see where a part was supposed to go. Once you got that it's a piece of cake. I was going to buy a lazyboy but the reviews were scary. I saw this one on amazon and saw the reviews and thought I had better go with this one and save some money. My wife said she loved it. She came into my studio and sat in the chair and did not want to get up. I was surprised when she said she loved it. I may have to get another.

It’s an ok chair but 3 months in, the lumbar part broke which is unfortunate because I can’t return it now.

Very comfortable, easily put together although the directions have very little English, but does have installation views and parts listed in English. Most anyone can put this chair together in less than an hour. THe only step I had difficulty with was attaching the lumar support lever to the seat as its difficult to grip and pull down to get it to mate up to install the screw. You just hafe to work with it, but it's worth it, love the variale lumbar support. Very intersting lumbar support concept in that when you lean back in the chair, the lumbar support changes with the movement of the back which is more than nice. The chair was as described by the vendor and arrived on the promised date.

Very nice Very easy to assemble Very confortable Ans good looking and quality

Overall the chair is excellent. There are not complaints other than it sits about 2 inches too high and i do not know how to adjust it down. I am on the lowest setting and it still feels high when i am typing on my keyboard.

tldr; chair was good for the price but not the best choice for people that are heavy I bought this chair in Feb 2020 but it never arrived. I contacted the seller and they sent me a replacement right way so 5 stars for support. I assembled it without too many issues.. basically 12 screws and the allen wrench comes with it. Assembly was a bit awkward with the slippery pleather etc but but I suspect that would be the case with any chair like this. I had no missing parts, the instructions were pretty clear, took me maybe 10 minutes. 5 stars for assembly. Overall, the chair was fine. It was pretty comfortable and there were controls to tilt & lock and height, which was good enough for me. I was very heavy back then, just under 300. One day I dropped something to the floor and when I leaned to the left to pick it up the chair creaked and cracked. I seems the wood in the seat pan cracked and the flat metal tilt bar that connects to the back snapped. The chair was still useable but over time it tilted more and more to the left. Once my back started aching, I had to replace the chair.

Looked very nice but is so uncomfortable I cannot sit in it. Gave me awful back and hip pain.

Not worth the price, perhaps half of I paid $400+CDN. Tilt mechanism not always work and has a minimal movement. The limbar support patented mechanism is a joke and I fear the chair will broke if I over uses it. Dont waste your money and do not make the same mistake, yes the comfort to receive the chair at your front door is priceless, but for a chair that you will be seating 6+ hours every day, take a trip to a local store and test as many as you can. Now I have to hassle with the idea to put everything back in the box and return it, or have to swallow this very bitter pill for the rest of my life.
