HYLONE Drafting Chair Tall Office Chair High-Back Mesh Standing Desk Stool with Adjustable Footrest Ring and Flip-Up Arms (Black)

Installation took an hour granted it would’ve probably taken half that time normally but I was watching a show at the same time but at least it was easy and don’t require more than 1 person😂 Comes with a detailed manual & all the pieces you need plus extras if you need them in the future. Oh there’s even a YouTube installation video but of course I didn’t realize that until I was done it’s on the very front of the manual you just type in the link verbatim it’s case sensitive so make sure it’s exactly the same & it’ll take to straight to the vid. Oh if you’re petite it’s quite tall I’m 4’9 and my feet don’t touch the ground but I don’t mind cause I like swinging my feet plus the cushion is so nice & thick. Pictures shown are this chair (left) compared with the cushion size and height at the lowest setting. This is a huge upgrade super happy I finally got a nice chair for my new wfh job!

I was replacing one that was used and given to me as a hand-me-down, but the height kept going down while I was sitting on it, which made it difficult to focus on my work.I couldn't find one the same seat height, which was disappointing, but I'm not mad at the choice I made.It was simple to put together - did it myself in less than an hour.I love that the seat portion of the chair "leans back" instead of forward. It allows me to reduce the pressure on my spine as I have sciatic issues (whole lumbar is compressed).I am "wide in the seat" and it is big enough for my wide load.I love that the arms can go up as I often need to dangle my arms from typing too much.I'd highly recommend this chair.Update: the fabric is kind of harsh on direct skin contact (like wearing shorts), but putting a cover over the fabric works, or wearing long(er) bottoms.

Overall seems good quality and comfortable, acceptable for the price . My biggest beef is that the top of the chair wobbles a bit. Like many, I replaced the casters with larger rubber wheel casters ($25 here). A minor disappointment is that the seller's instructions for adjusting the tilt tension are from the opposite perspective as I look at things, and the adjusting knob stripped. (See below for details)Just finished assembling. It was fairly easy. It's helpful to have a multi-tip screwdriver with Allen/hex tips so you don't have to use the included little tool. I used the printed instructions (attach both arms to seat and then attach back) and it worked for me, but now that I have watched the video, I think the video method (attach one arm to seat, attach back to that arm, attach 2nd arm to back, then attach that arm to seat) is probably the better way to go! Also to reduce confusion with the washers:Arms to seat: long screw, large washerBack to arms: short screw, small washerPlate to seat: short screw, large washerLike other people have mentioned, I also had a problem with the tilting at first. To solve:1) make sure the lift handle is pulled outwards to the "free" position2) realize that when the seller says clockwise to loosen, it's from the perspective of sitting in the chair and facing down. If you're looking at it from the perspective of facing the knob, as I do, you want to go counter-clockwise to loosen the spring tension.3) IF you have the opposite perspective and in an attempt to loosen the tilt, you tighten the knob clockwise (facing knob) too far like I did (before realizing the directions were from the opposite perspective), the screw shaft will extend out the bottom of the plastic knob (popping out the center cover). And also you might strip the part of the plastic knob that grips the metal nut, like I did, meaning it's stuck in the super-tight (no tilt) position. I had to break the plastic knob to remove it from the assembly and then use channel lock pliers to loosen the nut. Now it tilts fine! (Unfortunately for me, no longer easily adjustable though). I may reach out to support and see what mercy they might have, but for now, I don't really see the need to adjust the tilt tension once set how I like it initially .
