It's an excellent chair, very comfortable, easy to use, solid construction. Very good chair.

Absolutely the most comfortable office chair I have ever owned. Easily adjustable, great back support, comfortable seat even when sitting for long periods of time. Highly recommend!

If you had asked me a few years ago, I would have said the most I would spend on an office chair was $500. That changed in 2020 when I started working from home regularly. My seldom used $200 chair, that seemed good enough, quickly became uncomfortable and started to fall apart. My next "upgraded" $400 chair was almost done after just over a year. Even after that, I was still skeptical about this Steelcase Gesture chair. After using it for a week, I am really impressed with how well built it is and with all the adjustment it offers. Pros - Build quality and finish are great. It is very quiet, rolls easily and feels very solid/stable. The seat fabric is wrapped neatly and tightly. Plastic components are thick and nicely textured. All of the adjustment levers and joints have a solid action. - This is the easiest and quickest chair I have ever assembled (it took only a few minutes). It comes in three pieces (wheeled base, piston, and chair) that just fit together (no tools). - Controls and adjustments are easy to figure out and within easy reach when seated. - The design is very clean and professional. It is modest, but the back design and materials make this stand out from other chairs. - Armrest height and position are adjustable in every way. I was able to perfectly align the armrest with my keyboard tray to support my arms and reduce strain on my wrist from being at an awkward angle. - The adjustable backrest/recline stops are perfect. You don't have to keep the tension on the backrest super high or lock it straight up and down. I keep the backrest set on the first recline setting, allowing me to lean back just the right amount when I want. - The curved back and lumbar adjustment make a real difference in comfort after a few hours of use (my old chair's rigid back was killing me) - The warranty is 12 years long - just in case something does go wrong. Things to Consider - Compared to many inexpensive chairs I have owned or used this chair is heavy. It rolls easily on a hard surface or mat, but it is awkward to lift and might drag on some carpets. Make sure you get the recommended wheels for your surface type and some help if you need to lift it. - This chair is a good fit for me at 5'9" and a little over 200lbs, but I have the adjustable seat bottom extended almost all the way forward for my legs and my shoulder blades are near the top of the back rest. The chair is rated for people up to 400lbs, but it my might not be for you if you are close to 6' or have long legs. - Only the back reclines and there is no adjustment for bottom seat angle. - I love the adjustable arms, but height is the only adjustment that locks in place (via a lever on the armrest). You should be careful if you are normally use the arms to get out of a chair, because they will swing in or out on you if push on them. - The seat and back cushions/padding are on the firm side. They are supportive but may not be for you if you prefer a soft/plush feel.

I ordered this and was excited. When I opened the box and pulled it out (extremely heavy) I was not impressed. It just didn't look and feel how it was portrayed in photos.

Having to work from home time to time is the new norm of society. With that, being seated for hours at home can begin to take a toll on my body, especially if the chair I have is not the best. That is until now. Enter the Steelcase Gesture Home Office Chair. This is probably the most comfortable home office chair I have ever had. This is also probably the most durable and environmental friendly one as well. Getting this out of the box before assembly was a Herculean effort because of the sheer weight of this chair. I was amazed again at the durability and premium materials used in this design. Setting up was a breeze and felt that Gesture has your body in mind throughout the whole design. This is the most ergonomic chair I have ever sat in. The key is the lumbar support knowing you will need it if you are working at home (or office). The lumbar matches the curve of your back. This made sense to why the chair posture is very ‘stiff’. I feel that my back is fully supported when I am sitting. You can manually adjust the settings to match what you like. The arm rests have full range of motion, can swing outward and inwards height and depth to how you like to be position when at the desk. This is advantageous if you are operating multiple devices on your desk, switching directions and altering movements. And this is also environmentally sustainable product. It is made of 21% recyclable material, with the aim of reducing climate change and being 97% recyclable at the end. Even though almost a quarter of this is made of recycled material, the quality feels very premium and durable. The only con that I have (and it’s a small con) is the weight. This is a heavy chair so you would need that plastic floor mat for this. Overall, the best chair for your back that is ergonomically in tune with you, and sustainable to the environment.
