How comfortable &amp; durable is this chair to sit in for long hours (8+)? Does the seat padding seem like it will hold up over time with extended use?

This chair is extremely comfortable and has made a great difference in the health of my back. It has been a lifesaver and I highly recommend this chair to others looking for a lightweight chair with back support that lasts throughout the day.

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.

Excellent chair. Very well built, delivered in sturdy packaging and needed quick assembly, had for a few years and very durable and comfortable. That said, we do not use 8 hours a day but more as a casual computer chair in our family roomso we can't really say what that level of seating may be like. It is a very nice chair.

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.

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.

It's really not bad at all. I have lower back problems, so sitting for long periods of time is usually not my favorite thing, but I like this chair comfort-wise more than most.

I want to ensure the "BOTTOM SUPPORT" of this seat is going to be comfortable for EVERYDAY USE, along w the "BACK Support". My child just turned 2 years old 4 days ago. He is custom & VERY use to His "Chairries/by JonTi-CrafT" but enough eating in living room!! Does anyone feel this Transition of not only The Cairrries but his own personal"Security, Stability, Safty" WILL BE MET BY THIS PRODUCT?

I bought it as an additional chair for my daughter's table and it's so comfortable for me that I actually spend a fair amount of time sitting in it when she's at her table. I'm 5 ft 2 inches and 117 lbs, and my sitting on the chair puts no obvious strain on it at all. My daughter is 22 months and it's too big for her, but she still climbs into it on occasion. Perhaps at around 3 years it will fit better. And if she takes after me in stature, it should last her until she's 80 ;)

Chair is very comfortable. I bought it about 4 months ago and am using it every day. No problem up to now. The leather is not of the first quality though but you get what you pay for.

This chair is very, very comfortable, even after a few hours. I will say, if you're not real nimble and have to get up and down a lot, it can be troublesome because you have to almost roll off and the push up from a kneeling position. The chair has held up very well in the year I've owned it. The ratchet positioning still works great and no signs of wearing out. My ONLY complaint is that over time, the cushioning in the area where the seat meets the back (where your butt sits) has compressed, so that now when I sit in it, I can feel a bar under my butt. I now have to us a thin pillow in that area to be more comfortable. If they could improve this one area, (maybe memory foam?) it would be perfect!

I have had this seat for about 4 months. There is no cushioning but I don't find the seat uncomfortable for extended sitting. I use this seat as my main office chair and I like it.

Yes, it is definitely comfortable to sit in for long periods of time. I have had no issues of back pain or soreness, and my husband has the same report. He even stated he has fallen asleep, very recently, while sitting in the chair.

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.

Most of it is comfortable. If you are referring to sitting on it, it is very comfortable. Laying down I would recommend some extra padding for the base of the chair, as the board inside can be uncomfortable but the rest of the padding is great.

I'm a college student so I have days where I sit in front of my computer all day and I can say the chair is comfortable for long durations of work. It is very large! For that reason the back support is pretty far back. Overall it's a nice chair with great cushioning but if you don't have a big desk to fit the harm rests you won't have good back support.

The chair is very comfortable, cannot answer about durable, have not had it long enough to tell. Great chair for the price. We love ours.
