Mid-Back Mesh Swivel Task

Hi, I am here to review this chair. I bought it during COVID-19 because I need to work from home now. I am unbiased, no-one has paid me to do this, and I consider myself a generally reasonable human being. This chair cost me roughly $135. It's a chair. I am very happy with it. Putting it together was about as easy as putting together a chair could be, it took me about 15-20 minutes. The instructions consist of 6 steps, read all of them before starting because that's always how you should read instructions (life advice, you're welcome) After constructing this chair, I sat in it, as I planned from the beginning. It feels like a very functional chair. I like that you can lean with it, and rock with it. You can adjust height. I specifically wanted something with arms that folded up, this one has arms that do that. If you are super boujee and the type who requires some ridiculous material and comfort padding, don't buy this, but also nothing will make you happy so maybe you should buy it and just be unhappy. If you're normal and you want a quality computer chair with adequate levels of comfort, folding arms, adjustable height and rocking abilities plus good lumbar support (hopefully most people) buy this chair. It's great. Seriously. I see people nitpicking. This is a $130 computer chair. The material is fine. The comfort does the job. I am beyond happy with this chair and would absolutely recommend it to someone who wants an affordable and functional computer/office chair. If you're a picky scrooge nothing, in all reality, will make you happy - so good luck. I love this chair. Checks all of my boxes. Cheers! PS: Check the date of my review, if I never come back and re-review, its because this chair continued to be a chair and I maintained a high level of happiness with its functionality. I will only ever return to this review if something goes terribly wrong/upsets me that is at the legitimate fault of the chair. Cheers!

It's been over 3 months now and I have to say, this chair has been good to me. I should mention that I am 6'1". The contour of the back provides the right amount of support. It feels natural without being uncomfortable like some other chairs in the mid and lower price range. The mesh material making up the back and the base helps to keep you cool and ventilated as well. Important for those long hours working or gaming at your PC. The arms are not adjustable, but they do swing up out of the way if you prefer not to have them down for some reason or you need the extra space to get in and out of your chair. Remember that the arm rests are for support of your arms only so don't rest your weight on the arm rest when sitting down or getting up. They are not designed to support you in that way. The chair is very sturdy and easily assembled, although I would caution to keep the bolts loose as you're working. Don't fully tighten anything until you've got the main part of the chair assembly (minus the base) fitted together. I'll admit to making that mistake and found myself working harder than I should have. This is an excellent chair and being somewhat mid-range in price I find it to be better than most. I would have expected something like this to cost more. It's a bargain and if you have Prime then it's almost a 5-finger discount.

For those concerned about building: The chair arrived well packaged to avoid damage during shipping, parts separated into a few baggies to make it easier to find the things needed. The instructions consist of one page, half of which details the parts you should have. It takes some muddling through the 5 pictured steps and handling parts to figure out which should go where (example: two sets of plastic caps that are angled differently but otherwise look the same) but the entire process for me took about 30 minutes and my building experience is a few pieces of furniture from Ikea. It'll be easier to have 2 people to build it (mainly for one person to hold/stabilize parts) but I managed well-enough on my own. My advice during building is to only partially screw in parts or place in caps until you're sure that's where the parts should be. An example is I accidentally placed an armrest backward and took a minute to switch it out, but that was more me trying to speed through building so I could sit in my new chair sooner. I've had the chair for a month now and it is fairly sturdy. My 240-pound brother is comfortable on the chair and did not feel like it was going to give. He's going to get one for himself. The wheels roll smoothly, even on carpet (just takes a little more effort to roll). I love that the armrests can swivel up and that was the feature that I really bought this chair for. I have a small workspace at home and hated always having to adjust my chair height so I would be able to push the chair in without scraping my desk. Now I can choose to have no armrests, one armrest, or both armrests! Swiveling up/down the armrests is a little stiff at first but they loosen up over time. I live in the desert and having a mesh back and mesh-fabric seat is definitely a plus. I've noticed feeling less hot compared to sitting in my previous pleather desk chair (more cost-effective than cranking up the A/C). The seat and armrests have plenty of cushion and although the seat is scooped to better accommodate one's backside, I find it comfortable to sit cross-legged for those like me who cannot just sit in one position. Speaking of comfort, this chair has decent lumbar support and is comfortable even after 4-hours of sitting and typing essays. I do not have any back issues so I cannot speak for those who suffer from back problems. I only have a couple things of concern. I would warn against lifting the chair by the seat until you have put some time into sitting on it. The seat is not anchored to the gas lift column by screws (not sure if this is usually the case). Rather, the column inserts into a hollowed portion of the seat plate which it seems would need some weight and the power of gravity to really seal the column in. The material used for the seat and armrest covers is a fabric that is fairly rough. It may just be rough due to cutting the fabric to get the mesh-effect but be careful sliding bare skin on the chair/armrests as you could get something akin to carpet burn. However, the fabric does feel durable and hopefully will become more supple with use.

I've had this chair since Nov 2020 and it works great. Seat still has cushion, mesh is nice for hot days. I leave it in rocking mode & it's still going strong. I work from home so I'm in it almost 40 hours per week.

Nothing fancy but a well made chair for this price point. Assembly took about 10 minutes, simple and painless. I’m a larger guy at 6’3 and am very comfortable in this chair. I’m very conscious of my posture and this chair allows me to both be comfortable and sit with good form

Wasn’t sure how good the quality was going to be, normally I would prefer to inspect in Person before purchase. The chair arrived a day late, which was actually a real bummer, coz I paid expedited delivery (got refunded) for a reason. Don’t make promises you can’t keep. The damn thing arrived in Melbourne 4 days before it was delivered, some how the delivery agents took a month of sundays to get their act together. Anyways, after it finally arrived, it was easy to assemble, it is very solid and functional and looks great. The negative I would say are the casters that are very tight and don’t roll at all easily without actually sitting in the chair. But that is of no great concern, I wasn’t planning on doing any corridor drag races.

I had no trouble putting this chair together in about 25 mins - and solo. So far the squeak mentioned in the reviews hasn’t happened. I did take the advice of another reviewer and upgrade to the rollerblade wheels right away to save my carpet. I’m super happy with the results. Good value for the price.

No fault here, it’s just not a tall super comfy sturdy kind of chair that would add 100 quid to the price. Best most straightforward assembly I have experienced in 30 years. F the money, with pleasing design and grey colour, spot on, I would buy it again.
