How many hours of sitting is this good for?

If you don't mind the creaking, 5-8. Also it has an unexpected tipping point. I use a gel cushion for sitting time in excess of 12 hours.

I'm in college online last weekend I sat in sat in this chair writing a research paper for over 5 hours and I was perfectly fine. It's pretty comfy! I also play World of Warcraft for quite a few hours on end every few days and it's great for that too. I love this chair it's light and very comfortable.

I would say a anywhere from 3-4 hours at a time. A very comfortable chair, but not great for overly long periods of time.

If you want to relax for the evening, probably not. These are just "occasional" accent chairs so they aren't really built for real comfort. They are comfortable for sitting, like for a group gathering. I'm sure if you had an ottoman for your feet you could be comfortable enough for a 1 hour program.

I use this chair for as long as 6 hours at my desk. I purchased it when I was dealing with a hip flexor injury. I find the chair to be perfect! No pain in my hip after "sitting" for long periods of time. I purchased a second one for my desk at home.

hi :) it depends on how you will use it, i use it as a home office chair and dont sit in it very long. I would think if you were using it as a dining chair it would be fine, or as an accent chair in a room to sit in for a few minutes it would be fine. But keep in mind it is plastic so if your a large person this probably wouldn't be a chair you would like to sit in or lean back in, its not very sturdy. This chair is mostly for looks in my opinion, its not uncomfortable for me because im a petite woman and i dont sit in it for very long. Hope that helps :)

I've gone 2-3 hours, modeling at a table 29" above the floor. No back strain (and I have a bad back), but my knees need the occasional break, so I plant my feet firmly, to give them a rest. I know for a fact, that sitting non-stop for more than 2-3 hours, is risky... we are not built to sit for long periods; this chair helps IMO.

I'm afraid that I am not a gamer, so my chair only gets about 2 to 3 hours of use a day. However, it is not sagging, in fact the seat is the same as the day I took it out of the carton.

The chair has great padding on the back and should be good for long hours of sitting. The seat padding is a bit weak. It's great for a short time but may feel a bit hard after a couple hours of sitting.

We use our chairs for approximately 8+ hours per day at my office, and the seat is comfortable. I agree with Ryan B. about the back, as I have found myself leaving back a good bit (versus sitting straight like my old chair). Overall, however, it is a very comfortable chair, and I'm happy with it.

I am 5'8" and 220 lbs. i am at my desk a lot. (6-10 hours a day) This chair helps me correct my posture and relieves the problems I have in my upper back that limit how long I can sit. It is not as comfortable as my regular desk chair [Rated by Office Depot for 8 hours]. That rating is accurate as long as I am not working. When I am working, the combination of stress and posture issue get painful after two hours. On the kneeling chair, I have no back pain but my seat gets tired after 4 hours. I switch between the two to get through my day. It is very good, but it could really use more padding in the seat. I am 5'8" and 220 lbs. i am at my desk a lot.

I use this for about 30 minutes...but if you are sitting at a desk all day...put it on low and just keep it on...I have and stretch my neck and rotate my shoulders to give myself a nice mini-massage with warm muscles.

By the way. I use this every work day standing for 5-6 hours. Have had it for 3 months now and never going back.

Hi Jessica, this chair should be comfortable for 8+ hours a day, but if you have back issues or need additional support we would recommend looking for a chair that has adjustable lumbar support. This might be a better option for more back support because it has more ergonomic adjustabilities: http://www.247workspaceexpress.com/RTA-9105-ERGONOMIC-OFFICE-CHAIR/dp/B00CEZ7Q3I Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any more questions!

Im 6.0ft and 200lbs and it has been great for me. I use it less (2 hours per day) and my kids use it as well, which was the death of my old chair. This has been a good purchase for me. Good luck!

Depends what you're doing. Just browsing the internet and watching videos while at a balanced setting, you're good for about 5-6 hours. If you're doing something that requires significantly more power output, you're lookin' at about less than two hours. Also, it heats up very hot, very fast.

I've had mine for probably 6 months. It's holding up just fine, but I will tell you it's not super comfy. Fine for sitting for short periods, but not much more.

It's very good for working with computer ( sitting for 4-5 hours every day). Very convenient and strengthening!

two to three hours. I don't let it run down often so that is the best to my memory.
