Amazon Basics Executive Home Office Desk Chair with Padded Armrests, Adjustable Height and Tilt, Rolling Swivel Chair, 275 Pound Capacity, Black and Silver

Why did you pick this product vs others?:First I'll sat this is a great looking chair. It's very comfortable and very sturdy. Some of these style chairs like to kick out on you, not this chair. It's a snap to assemble and all the material is very good quality. Looking at it you'd swear it was leather. Nice styling, I like it a lot.

It's a good chair,price is right, it's comfortable and nice, instructions prettier easy. Very good rolling ability, not a noisy chair, nice size chair,

I have a lot of experience with these chairs.I have been tracking the price of these chairs for the past year. They had been $ 159 up till a few days ago when Amazon notified me of the price decrease, $ 120 (I guess because the chair was on my wish list). I jumped on it, at $ 120 dollars they are a great value. Package arrived in two days, package a little beat up but contents were perfect.Assembly :Assemble the wheeled base per instructions and attach bottom cushion .The key to easily and quick assembly is to attach the arms to the base cushion very, very loosely. If the arms are tightened down to the base you can not successfully line up the back cushion to the arm holes. Then loosely attach the top bolts through arms to the chair back then bottom bolts. I use an electric drill with a hex adapter (not the little enclosed Allen wrench ) and was able to put the chair together in less than 15 minutes, including unpacking. Note I am 71 years old with some physical disabilities.Issues with this chair. We first purchased similar chairs from Amazon about 12 years ago for around $ 100. We used these as our kitchen chairs, they are comfortable and sturdy even after long hours of sitting and held up well but after 8 or 9 years the bonded/man made leather covering started to flake and peel as this type of "leather" tends to do with heavy use. (You should not expect a lifetime of heavy use from an inexpensive office chair). I was very pleased with chairs, comfortable for my big frame , So ordered replacement chairs from Amazon which were just slightly different in the style of back cushion (would not notice difference unless pointed out). Unlike the old chairs, within two years the "backs" started breaking. I am 6 feet plus at 225 and my sons are a little bigger. As it turned out the sockets/nuts (inside the cushion base) that the arms bolts were attached to had pulled through the plywood inside the base cushion. (It seems the plywood base of the slightly restyled chairs is not nearly as strong). I repaired chairs by bolting a metal bar ( approx. 1/8 x 4 x 1 inch) to the underside of the plywood base inside the cushion. This requires taking the arms off the chair and opening up the side seams (many staples). Repaired chairs are holding up well. If you are not a big person (my wife, 130 pounds & 5 ft. 8 in.) has not broken her new style chair after 3 years. Time will tell if this newest chair holds up.P.S. Do not confuse this chair with the slightly less expensive (About $100) look alike office chair. The covering of the less expensive chair is very, very thin and will not hold up.

This is my second time purchasing this chair after the first one finally wore out from years of daily work from home use. I tried a different “ergonomic” chair in between and it ironically gave me horrible neck pain. Went back and bought this chair again and the pain is gone. It’s incredibly comfortable and great quality for the price.

This review was based upon needing a chair for remote teaching. I've been teaching for almost 2 decades in a science lab and never really sat down. However, now that we are alternating face-to-face and remote learning - this chair is HEAVEN! I was looking for lumbar support and cushion. I highly recommend it for the price! I recently had surgery and need to sit more during my remote sessions than previously. I now stand about 4 hours still doing demos and instruction at the board standing, but I also about 5-6 off and on throughout the day. I found myself sitting on the edge of my chair and slouching forward until this chair. I am 5' 6" and I can sit with my rear to the back of the cushion and my feet touch the floor. At the highest level they are a few inches off the ground, but I don't use that setting. However, if you had a higher table you could. There is a nice cushion under my knees and lumbar support so I can sit straight up, but feel comfortable.As another reviewer suggested - I have the reclining feature tight so it does not lean back, but you can easily change that with the turn of a knob under the seat. It provides support up to my shoulders - I do not need head support for the work I am doing. It alleviates the tension in lower back and the shoulder slouching. I'll have to update the review in 6 months to see how the cushion withstands the increased sitting time the rest of the school year as well as any wear and tear of the material. For now, I'd say this is an excellent purchase!As other viewers have mentioned, the assembly took about 20 minutes. They delivered to my school and they provided the Allen wrench. Although, if you had the electric driver, I'm sure it would have been faster. I did it old school and there were no issues. The instructions are straightforward - except for the arms. I should preface, they are marked 'L' and 'R'. I had even read another reviewer on here switched them. So, I was intentional about looking to make sure I did not do the same. I DID! After I put one of the arms on - I then noticed the letter on the arm...it's in the same color as the paint - it's an indention of the letter and until I tilted in the light (AFTER) I had attached it - I noticed it. The only tip I would give would be to look for the clearly marked stamps on the arm. This will save you time. Also, due to surgery, I had a hard time attaching the arms after it was on the pedestal (so I took it back off and assembled on the floor for better leverage). All of that being said, I assembled at the end of a long Friday - if you read the instructions carefully and look for the lettering on the arms - installation is easy!I definitely recommend and do not regret the purchase one bit. (I did notice the seat wobble at first, but that was because I need to take it off and put it back on the center pedestal - I had not installed all the way into the hole). Great wheels and rolls smoothly! LOVE the chair!!!
