I wanted to break this chair in before giving a full review.
6 months of use:
-Chair holds up well and handles my weight and height
-Cushion is moderate but could be better. It is fairly comfy
-Reclining at first was rigid but got easier over time.
-NOT WIDE ENOUGH. Legs get squeezed in by the arm rests and I wish I could modify it using a few wood pieces to place in between the arms and cushion's to give at least another 2 to 3 more inches of separation. this chair really needed 5 inches extra width
-Not a fan of the armrests being a mandatory requirement to keep the chair together, i think its a big design flaw. If one arm goes, the whole chair is broken!
-Backrest and Lumbar support is good. Long periods of sitting can get uncomfortable, back starts to lock up or get sore. strongly recommend getting up periodically to stretch and readjust
- Support is holding up great! Gas lift is working, had to add lube to the wheels which now rolls better
-Back rest is not tall enough
-Easy to clean! I can wipe it down periodically and add leather guard to it
-Chair lock is not very supportive, it now slightly leans to the right. This is a known issue with cheap design of the locking bar
-Periodically need to retighten bolts, they loosen way to fast and can sometimes catch me off guard when I hear creaking or snapping at the bolts move
Overall 3/5. Its not the best chair at its price range and there is better out there. For what this is, it will definitely get you by for quite awhile. The support is good! although the chair is a bit cramped in the width department. I would say lumbar support is average for lower back and the arm rest is not that great in the design where it would be better if it was more a U shape that allowed freedom of movement at the thighs

Its a nice chair. I have zero idea what the knob underneath is for. It doesn't come with any explaination for that. Just the height adjuster. Its basic and a first gaming chair for my 13 yo. Will likely upgrade quality in a couple years but its fine for now.

I wasn't sure what to expect but after using this for awhile, it's still in good shape, it hasn't worn out in any way that I can tell, and I'm 265 pounds, the casters are all still good, and it's pretty comfortable for the price.

Was reluctant to buy this at $130 but glad I did. Spent around 6 hours straight in it gaming and wasn't sore anywhere. Very basic without all the extra bells and whistles, but a good buy.
