I think its great, I got it as a christmas present last year from my husband. Nothing wrong with it so far. Hasn't even torn or worn out. Foot pump is great too! For the price I would def. recommend it. I do hair out of my house so I wasn't looking to spend a fortune on a chair.

Yes I was not a fan of it when I got it it was missing two screws and it doesn't pump up very high I didn't like it

Yes it is, I often work from home for 8-10 hours a day and haven't had any issues with the chair. Since the seat is mesh it gives a little and keeps me cool. The armrests are a thick foam with not much give to them but they aren't painful, just wish they had more cushion.

Wow, good question. I have had mine for 1 year and I have no idea if I have a good or bad one. It seems very well made and has held up well. My one complaint is that the back of the chair is in a very upright position. When my little guy first started using it, he sat towards the front so his feet would stay on the ground. Now that he is bigger, he sits back but looks uncomfortable, like the back is too straight. So he basically turns it over and leans on it. I got him another chair, the rocker from walmart, much cheaper, and he seems to use that one more because it looks (and I guess) feels more comfortable.

Well it seems to be a great chair, I go 200# and it fits me good. We really like the way it looks and feels. Good luck

Hello, we got this chair for a person who weighs 350 lbs. We DID get the "Everest & Jennings" model. It's been great because it has an extra wide wheel base (making it very stable) and a wider seat (making it a lot more comfortable than a standard size chair). We've had it for over 2 years now, and it's held up very well. The stiches are strong & there are no rips or tears in the fabric - after lots of use. All the wheels are still in great condition. We fold it & unfold it every time we use it (to put it in the back of our car) and it's still sturdy & strong. We are very happy with this chair. It was well worth the extra money (compared to the standard size). Hello, we got this chair for a person who weighs 350 lbs. We DID get the "Everest & Jennings" model.

No, it is not a comfortable chair. It is easier for my husband to get in and out of but as far as comfort I would not reccomend.

I bought this chair for my wife and have also used it. It is adjustable and the back support is very good. In addition, it is quite a beautiful piece of furniture as long as you can keep it clean which we have had no problems with so far.

It is fairly comfortable, but it is a lower-end product. We have been very pleased with them, but you may have to move around a little to improve comfort, but it all depends on your physical size, preferences, and what kind of chair you are putting it on.

I've owned one for about a year now, and so far I'm still happy with it. I get lots of compliments from it as well. The only bad things I would say is the arm rest; after a long time of use, mine got loose, but was easily fixable by just tightening the bolts on the bottom of the seat. The second thing would be the foam padding; the manufacture could have used a little more, but it might have looked a little wierd since normally "racing seats" are slim and sturdy. But other than that, this is an awesome chair and am very happy with it. Would recommend anyone who is a automotive enthusiast.

I purchased this chair for a co-worker who is under 300#. I weigh about the same as you...and I tried it out. It felt comfortable, AFTER the warehouse staff made some adjustments. My main concern would be the "tilt" feature. It kept feeling like the chair was slanting forward and going to dump me out in the floor...not a good feeling! I purchased a chair by the same company (also from Amazon) that was made for up to 500 lbs. This has been a great chair for me. I have not had any problems with it. It feels really secure.

No! Overall I would not suggest buying this chair. It is cheaply made poorly designed, not even comfortable.If I had to purchase another one, I'd spend a little more money.

This chair is comfortable and should fit you just fine. I use it for about that much time and have had no problems. I would recommend this chair.

That's what I could grasp from reading different sources on the internet. I have a 86205 and I'm very happy with it. 2 months and counting. I'm a big guy - 6'5 and 230lbs. No sign of sagging or ruining the seat or back. Working from home almost on a daily basis and the chair is comfortable to spend all day in it.

Hi there - the chair is fine for occasional seating but probably not the most comfortable for long periods of time since it is metal with a seat pad. I use the chair for my balcony and have sat in it for an hour or two at a time and never felt it was uncomfortable. The chair has a slightly deeper seat so your bottom is a little lower than a standard flat bottom chair. That is a little noticeable when getting out of the chair but it's part of the seat being lower and has no impact on seating comfort. In sum, I think the chair looks great, well-enough constructed especially for the price and is comfortable for an occasional chair.

mine didnt tilt like may of my other chairs have. im a heavy guy. mine did break just short of 2 years, but honestly, i think that was from the threshhold i was rolling over the last 3 months i had it. the leather is fake and peeled after about a year. i bought another chair from a fat man store that was wider, and ive had that for about 3 months and is trashed already.... im going to buy another one of these, as its lasted longer than other chairs ive paid much more for, and if it wasnt for the threshhold, id probably still be using it.

I don't quite agree with the 7/21 answer from JL. While the chair isn't bad, I dislike having to constantly reseat myself because the spring-loaded chair back keeps pushing me forward. Also be aware that their shipping packaging is, in a word, terrible. I have yet to recieve the correct part that was broken in shipping and have given up.

Yes; absolutely. This chair has been great. Nothing negative to report. Still looks and works as new.
