After going through three other chairs, I got serious about finding the best chair under $300. I read literally hundreds of reviews (specially looking for people my size), made sure the review numbers were too high to fake, and something with good adjustability. After having this chair for nearly three month of using it nearly every day, I highly recommend it. I am 58, 150 lbs., and write for a living, so I spend many hours straight behind the screen. One of the reasons I bought this chair was because of the thick seat cushion, and that many people said it was firm, but not uncomfortable. They were spot-on. Also, the lumbar support is excellent and adjustable. Even the headrest actually works well. The tension for leaning back has the right level of adjustability, as well. The base is robust, as are the wheels. It was also very easy to assemble. it is not an $800 chair, but it is incredibly good for a $260 chair.
Great Value, Supportive, Comfortable, Well-made
