5.0 out of 5 stars Oh My Gawd!, December 23, 2004

I went looking through Amazon for a replacement chair for my computer desk. The old chair was refurbished by myself and purchased from a second-hand market. It's beautiful, but after a couple years of wear and hours of sitting at the computer, my neck was killing me! Keep in mind that I have a relatively physical job lifting baggage 12 hours+ at the airport, so my body is aching when I get home. I needed a comfortable chair with a high-back to rest my weary neck.

I read some reviews of other chairs that say they were easy to assemble and in actuality were not.

(Keep with me, I'm going to sum-up to a raving review!)

I looked at a few chairs with massage features - vibrate & knead with embedded rolling balls. Well, I tried one of those chairs. The features are great, but the chairs are ultimately uncomfortable.

(Here it comes, I'm going to tie this all together.)

Not this chair! It is THE most comfortable chair I have EVER sat in! I wasn't sure what I was getting looking at a picture, so I went to Office Max. All their chairs sucked! I went to Office Depot and fell in love!

I can sleep in this chair! I can put my head back and play at the computer with a heating pad on my neck. It's roomy and oh sooooo comfortable! Words cannot express how much I love this Chair!

When I took it out of the box, I thought, "this is going to be so hard to put together and the air lift wont work; it probably wont feel the same way it did in the store." WRONG! I put it together in probably 5 minutes. The clean-up was harder - picking-up the bags and throwing away the box. Why? Because I could not get out of my new chair. Heck, I may just throw away my bed and sleep right here...well, if I could get up.

As for the massaging. I just may get a massaging seat pad so I can put it in my car too.

If you want the full effect, get a cordless mouse and keyboard!!

Trust me, you will not regret pampering yourself in cushy comfort! GET THIS CHAIR!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great chair for a big guy, November 11, 2004

whether you use this chair in the office or at home, this is a great chair. I can't belive how comfortable it is I am a 6'2" big boned large framed 275 pound guy and I feel small in this chair. It is great! I never thought I would feel this comfortable in ANY computer chair. I am not an executive but a home user who plays a lot of games and I never get tired. It is a pleasure to sit in instead of a pain or dread. Assembly is a snap. Takes about five-ten minutes. You just bolt on the base apply pressure then bolt on the back(it's a high back) and you're ready to go. Comes with a lock for the back when you don't want to recline as well as pressure for hieght and back to support the heaviest people. It says 250 lbs, but it will support more(with a shorter life.)

1.0 out of 5 stars seats 6'2" person comfortably but very poor build, April 29, 2006

Nick Reviewer "Nick" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Midlands Swivel Chair (Office Product)

After much window shopping (research) I bought this chair two weeks ago and yesterday the thing fell apart while I was leaning back and watching a movie on my comp.

Here is the problem, the back support is connected to the seat only by the two handle bars which are made of plastic. While I was leaning back, one of the handles literally cracked open at the junctions where the bottom (right side) two screws are. I fell back wards head first but luckily, my floor is carpetted and I did not hurt myself that much.

The manufacturer rates this chair as big and tall (upto 250 pounds) and for 5 hours of daily usage. I weigh around 210 and I had been sitting on it for less than an hour when the incident happened.

I am surely hoping to get my money back but the rest of you big and tall people beware.
