Office Star ProGrid Breathable Mesh Manager's Office Chair with Adjustable Seat Height, Multi-Function Tilt Control and Seat Slider, Mid Back, Coal FreeFlex Fabric

This chair choice was difficult to make, so many models that all look similar! I wanted one with a firm seat, not thin foam leaving one sitting on the board/plastic frame, this delivered that! I wanted adjustable seat positioning, this has all the seat adjustments my 40-year-old chair had! I am 5 feet tall, and the height adjusts low so my feet can touch the floor, most chairs don't do that! It is adjustable so if my 6-foot husband wants to use it, it raises high for his leg length as well. The seat moves forwards or back further assisting in comfort for the legs of the one using the chair. When I want the armrests out of the way it is just a squeeze of the buttons and they drop down where it feels like an armless chair, perfect if doing seated exercises. The assembly of the chair was a piece of cake! There is a video here in the comments on this web page showing how to assemble. Assembly time on the video is roughly 3 minutes it isn't that simple, in reality, it assembles with six hex screws and took roughly 30 minutes. Watch the video before and maybe during assembly, it is simple to put together. It is perfect for my needs, can't imagine a better chair anywhere. It works smoothly on hydraulics for height adjustment, the back has the mesh which I was worried about and there was no need, it is amazing to have airflow through the mesh! It offers just as much support as the solid back chair gave! The addition of lumbar support is very welcoming on a tired back! If you are on the fence about this chair or the taller back one, I feel it is worth the little bit extra to have the lower back version. I would give this chair 10 stars if I could, it is that nice of a chair.

The directions are a little lacking so it took a long time to think about it when putting together. An extra piece of paper in the directions is not that expensive and would have been great to have better pictures for assembly. But, I love this chair. Comfy and easy to operate once you figure out which levers operate what feature you want.

I'm so glad this chair was on sale, and I took a chance and bought it. It turns out, this chair is perfect for me. It offers everything I wanted. It has a well padded seat cushion that's contoured so it's comfortable, yet firm enough and supportive for all day seating. It's capable of all the adjustments I need to create just the right seating positions for my body. I need to be able to customize everything because I spend so much time working in the chair. It can tilt forward and back, and I can lock the tilt position slightly forward so it's great when I need to open up my hip ergonomically for my lower back. I can also adjust the tilt tension if I want to be able to rock forward or back. I can independently raise both the seat and back support up and down, forward and back. The arm rests can raise and lower, and the width is also adjustable. The components feel solid, are great quality and heavy duty. The chair has a great weighted feel when you move it and doesn't topple over. All these features in a chair are just an incredible value. It does more than some of the more expensive chairs I've looked it. I loved my last chair so much that it lasted me over 15 years, I never thought I'd be able to find a replacement I'd like, but surprisingly, this one is better that my last chair.

This is a heavy duty office chair. Heavy being the key word. And yes, it was a little tedious to put together, not exceptionally hard, but tedious, especially due to the weight which is primarily the seat and the adjustment controls. This is not a flimsy chair. The seat is hefty, but feels comfy, has nice thick cushioning (see photo). Having a stool or something to put it upside down on while putting together would be helpful, but honestly, if I had to do it again I would just pay for Professional installation. It's heavy and awkward and the allen wrench is too big. BUT it is a nice chair, and I had anticipated these things from reading other reviews. A little overkill for a home office, but I needed something with a seat slider. I am a 5'4 woman and I put it together myself, though I did need some help tightening the one screw that is awkwardly placed and flipping the whole thing over onto the base. I probably didn't need this chair, but it's nice and I wanted something super adjustable and this definitely is. I just set it up so I can't comment on support or longevity but I can say this is a nice, heavy chair. But do you really need all the adjustments? That's what makes it worth the $$ and effort.

I received the box and it was huge and extremely heavy. I thought that was a good sigh as a sturdy chair should weight a lot. I pulled everything out of the box and put it together.As soon as I sat on it I knew it was bad. The chair sits very high. If you're under 6ft good luck touching the floor with your feet. I tried to adjust it to make it go lower, but no dice. The height of the seat throws off everything else off so the hand rests were making contact with my desk regardless of what height I put it at. I thought it was fine as I could still put my feet on the bottom supports and find a comfortable position.I think started to adjust the seat (front to back), btw the chair seats very shallow. You can't set it any further back than what you get it as but it will slid forward quite a bit. I left it at the neutral position and then tried to adjust the back rest. No matter how I set it and now matter how high or low I put the back rest it just wouldn't sit comfortably. I pressed myself against the back rest to see if there was any give and found that it had too much give. I was able to feel the cross members on the back of the chair.There are multiple adjustments on the chair and all of them worked but one. The seat tilt adjustment was just moving around loosely. I tried every different angle and still nothing. I just ended up giving up and tore the thing down and processed my return. Don't buy unless you're tall and like a shallow seat with horrible adjustments.
