Hi. Someone wrote the the seat of this chair is not really mesh like the photo. Is that true???

Not true. This chair is mesh, just as described. There IS a version of this chair with a non-mesh seat. So, unless the person mistakenly ordered that one, he was shipped the wrong chair.

The seat covering seems to be made of the same material as the back of the chair. The seat, however, has some padding material under it. I find it very comfortable.

IT'S MESH. Also the most comfortable and durable office chair I've ever had. I purchased it because I couldn't bring myself to spend $700 on a Henry Miller chair. And I'm glad I didn't. Great chair. Highly recommend.

The seat is not a cushion. It is also mesh. The seat is firm, but comfortable in my opinion.

I have not used a mesh. Although it looks like a good shape it did not have the flexibility of moving the lumbar pillow. I have found that very important when moving it to different chairs. I also thought the mesh might slip in-between the seat back and seat of an office chair. Of course this item is softer and maybe a bit more comfortable.hope this helps.

It is "faux leather" or pleather/fake leather. It's probably better than leather durability wise. My old ikea chair is kinda losing part of it's surface... I literally just assembled mine. Loving it. Will have a review video up on youtube soon and a review here on amazon. I'm definitely satisfied :) It may suffer from "sweaty back syndrome" under the right conditions. There are mesh versions of DX racer on their website for about $350. I'm sure amazon has them floating around as well.

I agree with those who have stated that the picture represents the chair well. I have had the chair for quite a while and I love it. It was easy to put together and works well as a guest chair in my office. It is very comfortable and looks great.

It probably refers to the mesh back, which is a little lighter in color than the rest of the chair. I don't think it's too much so that it looks bad. I think it's a good chair and have been considering buying a second one.

I like the chair and i dont think the fabric looks cheap. Initially i did think it might be a cheap chair, but not because of the fabric.... it was hard as a rock out of the box! But, after sitting on it a dozen times, it has softened up and now i use it all the time. Hope that helps!

Chelsea - I understand why you are asking that questions. I have had these chairs for almost a year, and I love them. While the weave in the picture does look large and rough, they are not large and they are not rough. The chairs are very comfortable and soft to sit on. I can't tell you how much we have enjoyed these chairs over the last year. They are fantastic and well built. I have not had any of the troubles the other people have previously commented on. Would purchase these chairs again if I had the need.

I'm sorry but I did not try that before returning the chair .... there were no instructions in my package and I could not get it together all the way. It is a beautiful chair and worth trying....mine was just a fluke and because I was in a hurry I ended up getting a Posturepedic chair that Staples had just introduced in their store. They are approximately the same height and seat size and they put it together for me in store.

The chair did come in another version with a regular cushion seat, however, the height (even at the lowest setting) was a couple inches higher than this version with the mesh. I'm 5'2" and prefer the lowest height so that my feet rest flat on the floor. I think I would have prefered the cloth cushion seat but the couple inch difference wasn't as comfortable.

It's supposedd to be standard. The seat I received was so poorly made and small, it would've never fit. I sent it back b/c it was unfinished! It looks Nothing like the pic.

Well the headrest matches the chair in the picture, which I think is black, so it would probably be slightly different.

I'm not sure.....I just compared my seat style to the ones pictured and went from there.......

The chair backs are different, the chair backs resemble chivari chairs and they are even better than the picture! Good luck

It's not quite how it appears in the photo. It is slightly sloped on top from rear to front as you might expect it to be to cover an armchair. In other words, if you looked at an armchair from the side, that's about how the cover is shaped.

I don't know how this is marketed on amazon as there seem to be a bunch of different iterations of this chair available from different sellers on amazon. My advice would be to ask the seller or read the descriptions thoroughly. I didnt buy from amazon.

I actually returned this because it was smaller than I expected. This was several months ago, so I don't recall specific details about the chair. Sorry :(
