    Chair is comfortable for PC gaming. Assembling was easy a ABC as it came with instructions. I can play games on this chair for long periods of time, and my buttocks still feel comfy. Recommended!

    I have had this chair since 12-23-24 and it has been a good chair. It is still holding up physically. No real signs of wear other than what my cats have done to it here and there. I recommend this chair. I often fall asleep reclined in it lol

    this was a great chair for the price. It is easily as comfortable as some of the office chairs I have sat in which were 2-3 times the price. Also was very easy to assemble and is quite sturdy. Highly recommend!

    Chair is great for our computer room. The seat is a little narrow, but it is comfortable and I've sat in worse (like the chair that was replaced)! Can't beat the price!

    Overall this is a good chair, but it is not built for anyone with a wider frame. The arms of the chair dig into the thighs enough to be annoying, but other than that I would say it is exactly as described and priced accordingly. The material is pretty nice, but you can tell some of the chair is made from a little more economical materials. If you have a medium or smaller builder. It’s not bad.

    Nice solid chair. I would give 5 stars but the dial to tilt barely does anything but make noise when you recline a little bit. Had to tighten it.
