Was stiff and uncomfortable to sit in for long periods. The quality didn’t seem to match the price either. Overall, I was unhappy with the purchase.

I purchased this and it feels like its held together with hopes and dreams. The four bolts that attach the bracket with level on it don't tighten all the way, I had to find some washers and use them. It hurts my back when I sit on it, I will definitely be taking this back.

This thing is NOT comfortable. It has very little cushioning and the back isn't adjustable. It can tilt back but not lock into place. I screwed up and didnt return it in time. Now i have to buy a cushion for the chair i just bought.
Best advice i can give is dont buy a chair online unless you've sat in it before.
