Big and Tall Office Chair | Black | 500 lbs Load Capacity | Ergonomic Computer Chair with Wide Seat, Adjustable Height, Lumbar Support & Mesh Back | For Home, Office, Workspaces

I bought this chair for my husband after many years of trying to find a chair that was comfortable, that would hold his weight (he is 6' 1 and usually ranges between 300-350 lbs) and would last. In the past I would buy a chair that would say it held a weight more than what he currently weighed, and every time after a year or two the hydraulics would begin messing up or just quit working and he would be sitting in the lowest position the chair would allow. I came across this chair and the reviews I read were positive enough I figured we should give this chair a chance. When we initially received the box there was a hole in the bottom corner, which would not have bothered me except that the hydraulic bar was missing. We contacted Amazon. They had us send the chair back and promptly replaced it. After getting the replacement my husband held out with his busted one for a while until I finally remined him that I did not buy the chair for it to keep sitting in the box that was currently being used as a table. I pulled it out and put it together very easily. I don't recall fumbling with it at all. He has now used it for close to two years and it does not show any signs of the hydraulic wearing out. Bonus for us, even if it does wear out, the chair sits higher than normal computer chairs do so it won't cause him the normal discomfort the other chairs do of sitting lower. The seat cushion is still firm and has not flattened out. I feel like a little kid sitting in the chair when it comes to the size of the seat and height of the chair. My husband can sit all the way back in the chair and his feet don't rest on the ground unless he tilts his toes downward. He loves the chair still. I'm sure him losing weight (he is now below 300 lbs) will help the chair last even longer!

Great chair, very roomy and comfortable. Downside: you have to assemble yourself & I ordered 2 of these.....however they were different experiences. First one arrived perfectly, all pieces in box, even had a massage feature. Loved it so much that I ordered one for my home office also....Second chair, looked identical but no massage feature (listing must have changed?) and several of the plastic pieces arrived broken (plastic that covers the metal base and the plastic that snaps on the back of the chair) my impatient husband didn’t care and assembled it anyway. It works but doesn’t look pretty like the first one we ordered. They couldn’t send me just the plastic pieces and I didn’t want to dissemble the chair to send back so, the other reviews are true...it needs better packaging and better customer support but is a great chair, very sturdy and roomy.

May 2nd 2024 update: Chair is completely unfunctional due to bad metal (the plate under had a giant hole like it can't handle 220lbs). I slide comepletely off the chair because the base now sits at a 45 degree front-wards lean. This can only be fixed via welding and is a manufacturer error. Both myself and Amazon customer support tried to reach them and they've ignored us. Amazon can't do anything after 30 days and since this broke down completely in May nothing can be done. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. May update 2024: The chair has a significant lean forward and metal is starting to break under the seat. It has about a 30 degree lean forward to where if I try to slide under my desk I actually fall out of the chair. It creaks extremely bad as well, with many pop sounds. I have no idea how this is still listed as I'm only 220 pounds and it's almost completely broken in under a year. Anyone who's heavier is at significant risk of injury. February 2024 update: Rocking has gotten so bad I've almost fell out of the chair to the side even with the locking mechanism in place to stop the seat from it's natural rear-recline. The seat under the fabric is falsely made to seem like its cushioned but it's like a hollow, hollow plastic square of a seat. Almost like a giant tupperware with a thin cushion jacket around it. I can lean in most directions and hear it pop from flexing to and from its shape. It's extremely uncomfortable now because of all this. No actual cushion, constant leaning (the level on locks the reclining in place, there's nothing to stop it from leaning as its not supposed to do that to the side.) My tailbone hurts everytime I'm in this chair, it's terrible. Avoid at all costs. Original 2 Month review: Assembly was pretty straight forward. You have to tighten (as per the instructions) the screws every 2 weeks. Yet despite doing this, a weird rocking has built up slowly since the purchase. No amount of tightening will fix this. So I'm assuming if I'm lucky this chair only has a 4-5 month life span since it's already doing this 2 months in, as the screws aren't the problem.

This is a nice chair. I am not "big and tall" but wanted a wider chair so that my small dogs could sit alongside me in an office chair while I work on managing our empire. I decided to purchase the good but used version to save a couple of dollars cause I'm cheap as heck, lol. Chair came in a somewhat damaged box. It was fairly easy to put together but the instructions are only picture so I wasn't 100% sure about some things, like how to put the wheels on. The instructions didn't say anything other than showing the male wheel part going in to the female chair part so I wasn't sure they would click inside and hold in place but they did. It's comfortable to sit in. Downside is that the lumbar piece that slides up and down doesn't slide all the way down cause it's meant for someone taller, haha. My biggest issue with the item is that all of the screws were not in the package. I am missing one of the screws where the back attaches on to the underneath of the chair seat and all of the arm piece screws are missing. So I cannot attach the arms to the chair. While I can use the chair without the arms in place, it sorta defeats the purpose of buying this chair cause I can't put the pillow in place for the dogs to lay on. My own fault for saving a few dollars and buying a good but used chair. Had no idea it wouldn't have all the parts to go with it. Hoping to buy the screws locally so I can attach the arms and the last screw on the bottom. Otherwise I'm happy with the item itself.

Originally purchased in January of 2023. After 3 years of daily use, I have had 0 issues with this Big & Tall Office Chair. The chair Looks great and is easy to assemble, the parts are extremely sturdy with adjustable arms and lumbar support to get that custom fit. The seat cushion is thick and stays comfortable, whether I am working from home or going for a late night gaming session. The adjustable height piston stays in position and does not need to be constantly readjusted. You will Not be disappointed with this chair, Comfortable, Well Built, Best Bang for your Buck.

I love this chair!! First of all for the price I was not expecting much, but my husband and I decided, what the heck, Forbes listed it as a good chair for plus size people so we tried it. We purchased two so we put one together. I got the honor of trying it first. I am 5'9" and 250 so not on the way overly big side (imo). The seat is very comfy and allows me to sit cross legged as that is a quirk of mine. The back is very comfy and I can easily move the lumbar support up or down depending on how I am sitting. The only thing I had to adjust after putting together is the arm rests because they were too far apart. My husband used his and found it very comfortable, he is 6'6" and not quite 2x my weight. The cushion is comfy and the chair is solid. All the material was solid and felt well built. I highly recommend this chair.

The chair worked perfectly for 2 years, then the welds on both sides of the chair broke which hold up the back of the chair. I am only 280 pounds and use it 7 days a week for 8 to 12 hours a day, work and play. The padding is excellent and the comfort is good. I wish the construction was better.

So happy that I took the time to shop, find, then assemble this chair! First, I am big girl, and its perfect. Yes, its sturdy and *really* comfortable... I'll have to take some time to get used to the extra cushioning and support. I've been using a folding chair with a pillow on the seat for my at-home job (10hr days...I know - bad). I received it quickly (gotta love Amazon!), packaging had a small rip/hole... but nothing was damaged inside. Its packed very well. Its kinda heavy... I unpackaged, then took the pieces separately upstairs to assemble. A slightly stronger person would have no problem lifting the box... just be careful and safe. I put it together in about an hour (while handling multiple calls/texts, etc. lol). The directions are pictures, which are easy to follow... *follow the directions people*. The hardest part was doing the last thing of aligning the chair with the base - the wheels roll smoothly and the assembled chair has some weight to it. Two people would have made it so much easier, but I got it done by myself after a couple misses. Its just as described... cushiony big-booty seat (great for mine ;-) ). The armrests, lumbar, and seat height all adjust easily. I've not tried the recline part yet. Just happy to be sitting and typing this without my behind & legs killing me from that damn folding chair. As long as this thing holds up, it was a great buy and worth the 5 stars!!! :)

Solid product received before the estimated shipping arrival date. Nicely holds my 330 pounds and the seat is large and has a good size cushion, ie not too thin. I was relaxing in my living room and it took me less than 30 minutes to put it together. Good Quality and reasonable price.

Pleasantly surprised. Wide seat. Sturdy build. No more arm rests digging in my sides. Slides well, easy to build. So nice to have a chair that was affordable and fit my hips

Exactly what I need to work and game from home! I ordered and received this brand new chair 4 months ago and have been using it steadily every day since. I am a big and tall man (over 6ft, over 300lbs) and my previous work from home chair with a similar design (except plastic back support) finally wore and broke. I was searching for a chair with a wide seat and sturdy metal back support for my 40+ hours working from home and gaming, and this chair is the exact design I was looking for (mesh back + adjustable arms). Delivery/Assembly: The delivery was super fast - I got it within 2 days of ordering and it wasn't fulfilled by Amazon. The packaging was brand new and well packed (I had read reviews of other chairs being delivered with opened packing after being returned). Though everything was well packaged, one of 4 plastic clips on the cosmetic plastic back plate had cracked off (see picture). This has not been an issue and the back plate remains secured to the chair 4 months later. If I lean back really far that corner will pop out slightly but the back plate hasn't fallen off. This would be the only minor issue with the packaging/assembly. It even came with a very ergonomic alan key tool with a plastic grip for assembly, better than most furniture which comes with the simple L-shaped tool. Comfort: I find this chair to be very comfortable to be sitting in most of the day. The seat cushion is very comfortable and breathable, but I have placed a couple of pillows on it for added cushioning since I am using the chair soo much. This is also to preserve the chair cushion. When I first got the chair I kept it locked upright and felt that the lumbar support was set slightly high, until I boosted myself up with pillows. I now usually have the chair unlocked to freely recline and I appreciate the range of motion it allows. *One of the most important features is that I can push back in the reclining state without fear of the chair breaking or tipping over under my weight. The primary L-shaped bar which connects the seat is made of wide, thick metal and I do not worry that I will break the back or tip over, as I am wary of with other office chairs. The arm rests are very comfortable and can go fairly high. I sit all day with my arms rested on them as I type and they do not have any sharp edges and their material is soft to lean on. The reclining mechanism is simple to use and I do not experience the pneumatic support slowly lowering or getting shorter during the day, as I have heard in reviews of other office chairs. I don't usually write reviews but I did a lot of research to find the perfect working from home chair and hopefully this will be helpful to others on the same search. I do find this to be a great value and one of the best office chairs I've ever used. I don't just use this for work, I used to play games from my couch but have since transitioned to using this chair for gaming, so I am using it most of the day when home. Ultimately I give this chair 5/5 stars as it is the exact design I was looking for, is very comfortable and has the necessary support for someone of my size. None of the minor flaws seemed enough to warrant removing a star and the price is also much cheaper than other chairs I have seen with a similar look, but are not designed to handle over 300lbs. I hope this helps! UPDATE: The metal of the main mechanism which controls the height and attaches the leg to the seat cracked approximately 1.5 years after purchase. When I emailed the manufacturer to request a replacement part (which I said I would gladly pay for) they sent a brief reply stating that they are not "allowed" to send/sell replacement parts after the 90 day warranty has ended. For this reason I downgraded to 4/5 stars. I'll still bought another of these chairs while waiting for their reply, as it was comfortable and lasted a year and a half of daily use all day.

Ok here's the skinny... I am not. I'm 5' 5" and likely over 340 lbs (I don't use scales because they're toxic to my soul). The average width of a seat is not problematic unless the arms aren't adjustable so I wasn't looking for a wide seat chair as much as a deep seated chair. You see, I have a plentiful backside and unless there are gaps between the chair back and chair seat, that fleshy part of my body pushes me forward. I'm always trying to prevent myself from slipping off (especially leather seats). Pros to this chair: 1. The seat is deeper than the average. 2. The arms are set wide because the seat is wider than the average. 3. The arms can be tightened against the seat or an inch or so away from the seat so very accommodating. 4. The arms can be left off entirely. 5. The chair is fabric (not leather) so no slipping. 6. The seat cushion is thick enough that my backside feels cradled *winky face*. 7. The chair was relatively easy to assemble by myself. Cons to this chair: 1. The chair is a little higher than the average chair so if you're shorter like me, you'll likely need a foot rest. I mean it is advertised as "Big and Tall" so I should have expected that. 2. The chair feels a tiny bit wobbly. Now it's entirely possible that I have some more tightening to do. 3. The 'lumbar supoort' is not well placed or adjustable enough for someone with an extra large backside. I would like to be able to raise it higher. 4. The chair doesn't seem to roll as smoothly as my last chair. I recommend this chair to large bodied folks and in fact I've already suggested it to some friends.

Update: after a year of use the cushion is really uncomfortable and so it the lumbar support. They put some sort of metal structure under the cushion that pushes upwards and you can feel after sitting for a bit. Same with the lumbar support, that stupid “massage” thing has little balls in it that dig into your back. It’s not worth the money you save, buy a more expensive chair. The good, I'm a tall big dude, 6'5" 280lbs so its hard to find chairs that are comfortable and at least right now this is comfortable. It also seems to be made out of decently thick steel for the most part which gives me hope it will last a decent period of time. Putting it together was pretty easy, took maybe 30min, they give you an allen key that you can torque without hurting your hand which is nice, they even give you spare screws. The bad, it doesn't use standard parts. The gas cylinder is a class 4 which is good but its only 14" long and an inch of that ends up below the chair, standard size is 15.5" so its not very good for tall people. Also, by the amount it sank when I sat in it, I doubt it will have decent longevity before it starts sinking and needs to be replaced. I have to have it on the highest height in order to be at a normal desk height. Also, the wheels are also not a standard one, they're tiny which is fine for looks but if you roll over even the smallest bump in the floor it gets stuck, also something you'll probably have to replace in the future. The bottom piece is not one piece, it’s how IKEA does it where the legs are screwed into the centre which reduces its longevity. Lastly, the lumbar support only moves 2 inches and is quite small so it doesn't really end up in my lower back. All in all, like I said in the title, if you can get it on sale which I did for 163 CAD including the 30 dollar shipping, its a good deal if you compare it to the other chairs for those of use descended from giants, which are closer to 250 or 300 but don't expect a chair that doesn't creak or wobble a bit cuz it does and made vary clear by the numerous large stickers all over it, its very much made in china.
