    Uncomfortable, thin padding on seat. Not made for people over 5"10 or 200+lbs. Might be good for a child. Not worth the price. Easy to assemble.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This chair is great for my computer set-up. It came in a reasonable size box that is easy enough to move about. The chair itself is simple to setup, with instructions and tools included. The only downside with it for me is the lack of a lumbar cushion. Otherwise, it works well for me.
