The carton arrived with some damage, particularly surrounding the plastic strapping, but the contents were in good shape. There’s a total of 13 screws in assembly, all tightened with the included Allen wrench. Assembly only took me about 6-7 minutes. The chair itself is beautiful and very comfortable. I was specifically looking for a chair that goes high, and this one does so. It doesn’t have buckets of adjustability, but its got enough.
Seat cushion padding is almost 4″ thick and incredibly comfortable, arm rests resemble a very dense memory foam so, so while rigid, are still comfortable and have give. The arm rests are very adjustable and the top surface where your forearm sits has a nice contour for your arms. The mesh backing is very comfortable mesh cloth so there is very little grip friction against your back (i prefer this because extended sitting with a “grippy” back becomes irritating). The pneumatic adjustment is solid with a lot of travel and my favorite part is the excessive amount of lean this chair has– you can basically recline in it! The adjustable compression spring allows you to fine tune how much lean angle response you want.

After many hours a day in my current chair, my thighs ache and go numb from pressure from the edge of the seat. Does this happen to you in this chair?
