How thick is the seat cushion? Can you sit in for an entire work day if you weigh over 200 lbs.

The chair's frame is rigid and can hold a decent amount of weight - you're definitely good in the 200-250lb range. The frame is still made out of wood, though, so you don't always feel that the chair is "cemented" together like some of the uber-high-end chairs that you find in corporate offices. That said, it's WAY better quality than anything you'd find at an office depot - you basically "get what you pay for." The seat cushion is supported by springs (like an old school mattress and about a half inch of underlining fabric. Thus, the seat does not mold to your butt - it almost feels like you're sitting on a giant button. It cheapens the feel a little but the chair is still pretty comfortable in my opinion. After about 2-3 years of ownership, this chair has also held together perfectly. At 180lbs, it's definitely the most comfortable chair I've ever owned and I don't see myself moving onto anything else in the near future.

It would take some breaking in but would be fine. It's not a real deep seat though (against the back) so if u are a big fella it may not be great for all day. You sit very upright in it....forces you to have good posture!

I weigh 250. The seat is very thick and it is very comfortable for long sessions.

The cushion is not very thick, but doesn't bottom out ie you cannot feel the hard surface that the cushion sits on. I can comfortably sit on it for a few hours at a time. I dislike the seam around the top edge that can get irritating if you tend to sit on the edge of the stool.

2 inches thick as for width and length I'M not sure but cushion doesn't cover my chairs completely. There comfortable to sit on at least. I say there good quality too!

Possibly. At 6-even my head is above the rest. What's a bigger concern to me is that at 200 pounds, I really feel the structure of the chair with my butt.

Although I bought this for my mother, I went and sat in the chair after receiving this question. I am 6'5" and 250 lbs and I fit comfortably in the chair. But I don't imagine it would remain comfortable if I had to sit in it all day every day. It is not a high back, so my shoulder blades were above the back. So I guess it depends on how you plan to use the chair. If for short time transport for someone, you should be fine. If sitting in it all day every day, then maybe not. Great chair for the price, by the way.

I weigh 200# and this toilet is OK for me. I would not let anyone at 400 plus lb's use it. You need to do a search for a heavy duty toilet.Thank you, JLM

I weigh 275.The cushion sinks about 4 inches.It is still the best compared to throw cushions.I couldn't sit very long on a hard chair without it.It does elevate and helps getting out of a chair.It was too thick for the car.

I would say anything over 200 would be pushing it's limits. My husband and I are both close to that and you can feel the chair shell flex a little. Still feels sturdy but I would be afraid a heavier person could cause breakage over time

I did not find any official limit. I am just over 200 pounds and would not be able to use this stool for several hours per day. It is fine in a store where you sit for a few minutes, etc. It also needs to have the fasteners routinely tightened.

I believe the weight limit is 300 lbs. I weigh 160 and I sometimes put most of my weight on more of the outside edge of the seat..... I'm not always just centered on the entire seat cushion.... So I wondered how it would hold up, and it has done great!

Hi I am happy with the seat. I use it for 9 hours every day. In my opinion The cushion is high density. Seat is very comfortable.

My friend is 200lbs & sat in the chair. That is the best answer I can provide. Hope this helps.

About 13 inches from the ground to the bottom of the seat. Full thickness of the cushion is about 2 inches. Once seated, with compression, seat is about 1 inch thick. Therefore, from ground to sitting down, I am probably about 14 inches from the floor.

I am about 200lbs and the chair had no problems. As i said in my note, be carefull in not over inflating the chair.

Great question. How much does the person weigh? If it is someone who is morbidly obese like 400 pounds, I would question whether it could take the stress. But I know somebody 200 pounds has absolutely no problem sitting on it. Have you contacted the manufacturer to ask?

It's extremely sturdy. I weigh 175 lbs and it could take a whole lot more. I think in reading about it I read 300, but not sure where. I would say that's in reason. That top cushion is 4" plus thick and barely dents when I sit full on.

Well, Janet, I'm 195 pounds and at first it dropped about 2 inches. I've had my cushion for at least 6 months, and it's still fairly firm.
