Nice chair...not as advertised though

Decent chair looks nice but darker than I thought it would be and took forever to receive...at a higher cost than the original quote.

The eagerly awaited chairs came. They are gorgeous and look well made. However, upon reading the enclosed manual to put it together, i found out it has a 120# weight limit!!! for a dining room chair??!! Nowhere was this mentioned in the description nor did any other reviewers mention this. I called the company to confirm the limit and they said 120# is the limit and I can send it back to amazon. Bummer. amazon did great tho. they are paying for the return shipping and editting the description. very weird tho- same chair, same company, same description for chairs listed on walmart.com. BUT their manual posted on walmart states 250# limit!!!? that makes more sense for a dining chair. doesnt help with this amazon purchase tho b/c the enclosed manual says 120# limit. again, i want to say, amazon is awesome. manufacturer needs to get it together!!! too bad b/c i really liked the chairs!!

previous purchasers please feel free to comment or enlighten me further.

p.s. called dorel again. they confirmed that chair indeed has 120# limit and walmart link needs to be updated and corrected too. such a pity.

This chair is super comfortable and supportive however, it is brown. When you look it up it says that it is black but it is actually brown.

Ordered chair pictured. Received a basic black chair, similar to waiting room chairs, with NO WHEELS! Returning tomorrow!

No complaints about the construction or quality, but it is far different than most office chairs in ways that are not essential for supporting a large person.  That means it is very important to know exactly what you are getting before you order this chair.  You are not going to discern what I am saying in the rest of my review from the "Product Details".

The biggest issue is that spread between the arms are 4 to 6 inches wider than typical office chairs.  This wide spread between chair arms is a problem for me because I like to rest my elbows & upper fore arms on the chair arms when I type - I cannot do that with this chair.  The top of the chair curves in especially at the shoulders - so not the best when somebody like myself (tall and broad shoulders) goes to recline.  The lumbar support is aggressive - some may like that, but not me.

I had purchased this chair for my home office.  The packaging was very good, but the arm rest had a slight rip.  I probably would have kept it because it was not too bad; however, I was missing all the hardware to put the chair together.  There is no manufacturer information included because usually the manufacturer can just send out what you need (what is missing).  I called Amazon and asked if I could get the missing hardware and hopefully just get one arm rest sent to me.  It turns out they had to send a whole new chair.  I hated for them to incur additional shipping expense.  But okay.  The new chair promptly arrived.  Arm rest was good.  But the second chair was missing the same hardware.  So I ended up sending both back.  I have a feeling that the chair would have been very comfortable - especially for the price.  In any event, there must have been something going on with the manufacturer for that lot of chairs because both were missing the same hardware.  I decided it was best to buy a chair in person at a local store - which I made sure to check for hardware before I took the chair home :)

I ordered this chair back in September 2013. The chair that I received had a seat cushion that had a contoured design. It had two holes in the seat cushion, and it was tapered and angled. You can view the correct and original chair by googling "office star 5700e." As of this writing, February 18, 2014, the chair pictured on the Officestar website is the chair that I received on September 2013.

I ordered this chair again in February 2014 because I liked it so much. I received a different chair. The chair that I received is the one currently pictured on Amazon. It has a completely flat and plain seat cushion. It does not have a contoured design with varying angles. The seat cushion is way too flat now. It isn't as comfortable as my old chair.

Since when was it customary for Amazon to change the product for the exact same ASIN?

I wish I had read the review on this chair from February. I would not have purchased it. I, too, received a black chair, not brown as advertised. My wife has the same chair in brown, which we bought at Sam's Club, and it has a Barcalounger label attached to the back. The chair from Amazon is clearly an inferior substitute. But unfortunately they no longer have any Barcaloungers in stock, so like the previous reviewer, I'll live with it for now because I don't feel like going through the hassle of returning it.

Let me caveat this by saying the chair is great.  It is comfortable, small enough for a tight workspace, but large enough you don't feel like you're sitting at the kids table.

However, I am giving this 1 star due to the buying experience.  When I went to the product page I found a very cute green apple colored chair- i instantly bought it and couldn't wait for it to arrive.  It matches pefectly with my decor.  What I received however, was a a sparkly, forest-green chair.  I immediately contacted the seller and was instructed how to return it.  They apologized for the inconvenience and mailed me a replacement.  To my surprise the replacement arrive the VERY next day!  The replacement was again the ugly forest green iridescent I had just sent back.  Too irritated to send it back, I assembled it and stuck it in the corner out of sight.

Do not buy the green chair expecting to get the green apple color, you will be sadly dissapointed

I would NOT PURCHASE from this company!  I am So upset about the poor (BETTER I SHOULD SAY ZERO) customer service or even effort to replace or refund me for receiving a chair that was IN NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM, as this beautiful chair is advertised here. I only wish it had been, because I absolutely love the chair shown.  My came in a light brown, or tan - unlike this black one, it is microfiber, at best - unlike the leather one above, and in no minor way, is mine a tufted chair.. But rather it is flat and meek.  When I assembled it, I was not thrilled, though I couldn't put my finger on exactly why that was -- then it hit me, this is not my chair.. After leaving Furnituremaxx 2 Emails, and receiving nothing in return, not even a response, I left a very similar review, as the one I am leaving for a second time -- MAYBE THIS TIME I WILL HEAR BACK FROM THEM TO CORRECT THE PROB ?

Comfortable, but bigger than I thought.  Very disappointed in return policy as it would cost more to return than I originally paid for the chair.

The chair is sturdy, attractive, and lightweight.  The problem is that the description doesn't tell the potential buyer that it's made from heavy duty plastic disguised as wood.  If it were a wood frame chair, it would've received 5 stars.

Its a great chair. No denying that.  The problem is that around the two cutouts in the headrest the upholstery is not secured so it pulls out from behind the plastic inserts. Also when I ordered this chair I was under the impression it would look as it does in the Amazon picture, with a black stand.  I got a stand that is chrome, and it just looks damn tacky.  If I wanted something dripping in chrome I would buy a Honda Civic from a Fast and Furious wannabe in SoCal.  Its a good chair, but for the price I expected a little more "premium" out of it.

The chairs are great quality! But the problem was that I ordered three 30 in chairs and received two 30 chairs and one 24 chair. I believe Im a week past the deadline for a return or refund, so it looks like Im stuck with mismatched chairs.

Great chair for the price being offered here (175).  Tilts back nicely when the tilt-lock function is disengaged. There are two things I dislike: first, the shiny plate on the back is not metal, its plastic with silver colored paint on it, and second, when the tilt is locked in the upright position, the chair does tilt back a tiny bit - not sure if this is a design flaw or was intended by the manufacturer.

Im using the sunniedog rollerblade caster wheels on this chair.  See the photo.

UPDATE: returning The chair.  Mesh seat has stretched in less than a week of regular use.  The sides of the seat are hard plastic, and it feels like I'm sitting on public transportation.

Not a bad chair. From the pictures it looked like it had adjustable arms, though it doesn't. I know it doesn't say it anywhere so I'm not blaming the profile. It is pretty comfortable and feels well made, and the adjustments have large ranges. Only other knock on it was the shipping condition. Chair was not packaged well and the box came in really crappy condition. Other than that I am happy with the chair, not the best, but for the price its solid.
