Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Screen Back Task Chair ? Black
Customer Review: EVERYTHING I was looking for in a desk chair
Summary: 5 Stars
Here's what I was looking for in a home-office chair:
1. Mesh back for air circulation, comfortable seat
2. No arms (they run into my desk and when I use the arms I lean to one side of the chair and after an hour or two my back aches)
3. Not a lot of bulk but plenty of comfortable back support, including lumbar and mid-back
4. Light weight for easier maneuverability on carpet (I have no mat and don't want one if I can avoid it)
5. Adjustable seat height (pneumatic preferred); other adjustments for me are not needed
6. Inexpensive
7. Not ugly
8. Durable - ?
This chair has it ALL - I could hardly believe it. The user reviews were what sold me; I just could not believe a chair with such an inexpensive price tag had all the features I wanted. As others have said, easy, easy, EASY to assemble and everything you need is provided in the box.
Durability is my only question mark as I've only been sitting in it for 60 minutes, but even if it only lasts a year I'll be happy and will buy one every year if necessary! As soon as I sat in it I felt a HUGE improvement in comfort from my old clunky high-back plether chair with arms.
And this chair's not ugly! It looks very sleek with my desk. I never write product reviews, but this chair made me want to write about it!
Warranty note: There was no information in the box regarding a warranty (except a note saying there is one), so I went online to the mfr ("Office Star") and learned it is a "Work Smart" chair, model EX80, and it has a 5-yr warranty on nonmoving parts, a 2-yr warranty for moving parts, and 1-yr warranty on the fabric. Warranty not valid for users 200+ pounds.
I hope this review was helpful to you!
UPDATE: 5 months later and I still love it!
UPDATE #2: 1 year, 4 months later: Still love it! No problems. I did notice that it has gone up in price. Too bad, but still worth it in my opinion.
