This should not be an issue. The mat is quite hard and impervious to denting, even to my 220lb torso.

I haven't owned this for very long and currently am still only using it with a temporary lightweight chair until I decide on my permanent chair. While I imagine any plastic material of similar composition will crack and deform over time, I have yet to notice any problems.

No, I move freely on mine. There are no cracks. I feel it is performing as it should. Hope this helps.

Mine has not caved in nor has it cracked at all. It is perfect on my hardwood floors.

I'd say that mine is about the same. Most "regular" chairs break on that mechanism for big guys. So it wouldn't surprise me if this was limited because this portion needs to be strengthened in the big & tall chairs.

When I've used it, I've always have dropped the left side. If I could get to the chair I would check, but I think both sides do.

I am 6'9" and 330 lbs. I bought this chair 2 years ago and loved it until the gas cylinder failed, converting this into a low-rider. I tried to replace the cylinder myself using a "universal" cylinder; that failed; so I bought this chair a second time. The gas cylinder has again failed after one year. I love the chair, just wish I could find it with a non-adjustable post in lieu of the gas cylinder as I have no need to lower the chair. Really comfortable, though...

I think in my research that this chair had a high limit, that is part of the reason I choose it. I am 300lbs and have had no problems in the time that I've owned it. I really do like the chair!

Hello Samantha, I purchased this chair for my daughter. She hasn't had any problems. Im sorry I can't assist.

My Cleartex Mat has survived without dimpling for a long time. My office chair has a 5 arm base with 5 casters, so it distributes my weight (185 lbs) over a large area and I haven't experienced any caster depressions or other surface damage yet. I'm very pleased with this mat.

I have noticed a very very slight tilt. It's only noticeable if I pull my feet off the ground and lean the chair all the way back. If I do that it will start to spin very slowly. I figured that it was due to the fact that I lean it pretty heavy anyways and I am 6'4" and 350lbs, so not a little person. Other than that the padding and stitching and everything else is still in fantastic shape. I have only had it for 6 months but I spend probably 12+ hours a day in it.

Unless they changed the design, this chair is not comfortable. No lumbar support and after sitting in it over extended period cushioning compresses. Then you're left with a hard bar under your knees. In your case under your thigh. I stopped using mine awhile ago. I'm over 230 lbs so this may be the issue. Also the base loosens. It functioned ok with sound. Chair has life of maybe 3 months for heavy weight, frequent gamers.

I bought this chair and in a (2) months the hydraulic shaft stop working. It sunk to the ground and I cannot raise the chair anymore. I am a skinny guy and never had this happen with a chair like this. The overall look of the chair is still in tact and the leather wears well and looks very expensive. I had high hopes for this chair since I work from home, however, I would be somewhat skeptical at recommending this chair to someone based on the hydraulic concern.

I found it helped. Beware of this particular chair, after 6 months or so, the bracket between the seat and back , cracked in half. I am very disappointed in the chair for that reason.

It can do that. It made my regular seat more bearable (BMW R1100R). It will not cover every square inch of your seat though, and can feel like the curve of th see is more accute or like it's bunching up. The best solution for me was to lose 60lbs though. 500 miles when I was heavier was a bear, 1100 I did a few weeks ago paled was longer and easier on my body.It's not a cheap investment, but cheaper than a custom saddle. Try and borrow one before you make the investment and put a few hundred miles under it in one sitting.

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.

I have not had issues with this cushion interfering with my rotation. I paddle an expic 18xs.

We have some of these and we have people who are 250lbs and they can sit on it. It will go down a little when you sit on from the hydraulic. Just don't tip over and drop the chair on the ground. The seat tops are hollow and may crack. It happened to us already. Not the best built but pretty good for the price.

I've had friends who are way heavier ride it just fine. The only problem is the board looks like it's caving in, but obviously never breaks. Enjoy!
