KOLLIEEMid Back Mesh Office Chair Ergonomic Swivel Black Mesh Computer Chair Flip Up Arms with Lumbar Support Adjustable Height Task Chair

Packaging and Installation:The chair parts came packaged in a neat and organized manner. The instructions were clear and easy to follow so building the chair took about 30 minutes to put together. Most of the pieces came together without an issue but the only step in the installation of the chair that you should be careful about when putting it together is when you're screwing the screws into the components. To make sure you have the holes aligned, you shouldn't tighten the screws all the way until you have all the screws in place, that way the holes don't become misaligned when tightening.Build/Comfort:The build quality is decent for the price and feels sturdy when in use. For reference, I weigh 230 pounds and do not feel like the chair will break on me. I can easily roll around and lean back without any problems or worry. The seat is comfortable as I sit on it for hours at a time and do not feel the need to get up or feel any discomfort whatsoever. The only part of the chair that feels noticeably different from the other parts is the pair of armrests. They came a little scratched and have a rough feel to them. This is personally not a problem for me because not only are they adjustable so that they can lift up, but also because I don't particularly use the armrests normally and my torso is a little tall to use them comfortably.Overall this chair is a great chair for the price and seems like it will last me a long time and repeated use.

Update 2-8-2022: Its been about a year and a half, the hydraulics are giving out so I have to constantly raise the chair again. The cushion gave out a long time ago, but I didn't mind since I had a cushion to put on top of it. If you can go with something more expensive, that'll last longer it's probably worth it. That's my plan going forward.The headline of my review was either going to be this or, "You may want to take the money you save and buy an electric screwdriver. For $100 bucks, or it's often on sale for below that, this chair is fantastic.Assembly: I saw a lot reviews praising it for its simple assembly. I agree, it is simple, but some of the threading tolerances on my model were too tight, the included allen key wasn't going to cut it, but I think an electric screwdriver, or a drill would make it easy, just be careful not to over tighten and strip something. I didn't have an electric screwdriver, and by the end of assembly I had worked up a sweat. I guess this bit is just to let you know that even though assembly is very simple and well written, it doesn't mean it will be easy.One other note on assembly, when you attach the arms to the back it feels like you should able to tighten them more than you can, they wobble. Once you've attached the back and arms to the bottom though, the arms are perfectly secure.Pros:PriceBack design is more supportive than other chairs at around the $70-100 mark from the pictures I can see on amazonCons:Arm wrest have no height adjust and are too low for me, I'm about 6' or 180cm tallOverall fit and finish would be shoddy for an expensive chair, but at this price point I really can't complain and its professional enough that I wouldn't feel awkward putting them in an meeting room to meet with clients and such.Conclusion: The construction on this one feels pretty solid, but I am also writing this review right after assembling it and I will update if it ends up suddenly giving out. Update: after a couple of months, the back does lose some of its support. If you looking for a cheap decent chair, this looks to be about the best option. The next time I buy a chair, I probably will make sure that the arm wrests are height adjustable, but I will likely have to pay quite a bit more for that luxury. Assembly takes a bit of legwork, but the specifications leave tolerances for slight manufacturing error which is nice to see, and made the process far from frustrating. If a friend came to me and asked if what chair they should buy for their office for under $100 I would point them here 10 times out of 10.

Honestly, I've been wanting to get a new chair for a while now. Being stuck at home because of the virus is me always being stuck on my laptop, getting lower back pains because of my poor posture, and my cheap fold-up chair.I have to say while the instructions for this chair were easy to follow, some additional help is definitely needed. I cannot see anyone just putting this together since some of the parts were troublesome to set into place. Especially the wheels. You need to drive the rollers into empty fixtures extremely hard. In my case, I had a hard time doing so, so I got someone to help me. The most challenging part of setting the whole chair into place was screwing the seat onto the back frame. For some reason, not all the holes precisely aligned, which caused me such a long time of confusion. So for any future buyers: when you screw on the handles to the back frame, take care because if the two handles aren't properly angled, you will have to redo this whole step.Overall, other than the struggles of setting the chair up for use, I really like the chair itself. It does okay on low raise carpet; however, it doesn't allow tilting. Because of my carpeting, I'm worried about the wheels getting caught with loose hairs, but that's a future me problem. The mesh design is quite lovely because of the new airflow, and the lower back support is what I wanted. I'm quite satisfied.
