BestOffice Big and Tall Office Chair 500lbs Desk Chair Mesh Computer Chair with Lumbar Support Wide Seat High Back Task Executive Ergonomic Chair for Home Office (Black)

I bought this chair for my husband after many years of trying to find a chair that was comfortable, that would hold his weight (he is 6' 1 and usually ranges between 300-350 lbs) and would last. In the past I would buy a chair that would say it held a weight more than what he currently weighed, and every time after a year or two the hydraulics would begin messing up or just quit working and he would be sitting in the lowest position the chair would allow. I came across this chair and the reviews I read were positive enough I figured we should give this chair a chance. When we initially received the box there was a hole in the bottom corner, which would not have bothered me except that the hydraulic bar was missing. We contacted Amazon. They had us send the chair back and promptly replaced it. After getting the replacement my husband held out with his busted one for a while until I finally remined him that I did not buy the chair for it to keep sitting in the box that was currently being used as a table. I pulled it out and put it together very easily. I don't recall fumbling with it at all. He has now used it for close to two years and it does not show any signs of the hydraulic wearing out. Bonus for us, even if it does wear out, the chair sits higher than normal computer chairs do so it won't cause him the normal discomfort the other chairs do of sitting lower. The seat cushion is still firm and has not flattened out. I feel like a little kid sitting in the chair when it comes to the size of the seat and height of the chair. My husband can sit all the way back in the chair and his feet don't rest on the ground unless he tilts his toes downward. He loves the chair still. I'm sure him losing weight (he is now below 300 lbs) will help the chair last even longer!

I love this chair!! First of all for the price I was not expecting much, but my husband and I decided, what the heck, Forbes listed it as a good chair for plus size people so we tried it. We purchased two so we put one together. I got the honor of trying it first. I am 5'9" and 250 so not on the way overly big side (imo). The seat is very comfy and allows me to sit cross legged as that is a quirk of mine. The back is very comfy and I can easily move the lumbar support up or down depending on how I am sitting. The only thing I had to adjust after putting together is the arm rests because they were too far apart. My husband used his and found it very comfortable, he is 6'6" and not quite 2x my weight. The cushion is comfy and the chair is solid. All the material was solid and felt well built. I highly recommend this chair.

May 2nd 2024 update: Chair is completely unfunctional due to bad metal (the plate under had a giant hole like it can't handle 220lbs). I slide comepletely off the chair because the base now sits at a 45 degree front-wards lean. This can only be fixed via welding and is a manufacturer error. Both myself and Amazon customer support tried to reach them and they've ignored us. Amazon can't do anything after 30 days and since this broke down completely in May nothing can be done. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE.May update 2024: The chair has a significant lean forward and metal is starting to break under the seat. It has about a 30 degree lean forward to where if I try to slide under my desk I actually fall out of the chair. It creaks extremely bad as well, with many pop sounds. I have no idea how this is still listed as I'm only 220 pounds and it's almost completely broken in under a year. Anyone who's heavier is at significant risk of injury.February 2024 update: Rocking has gotten so bad I've almost fell out of the chair to the side even with the locking mechanism in place to stop the seat from it's natural rear-recline.The seat under the fabric is falsely made to seem like its cushioned but it's like a hollow, hollow plastic square of a seat. Almost like a giant tupperware with a thin cushion jacket around it.I can lean in most directions and hear it pop from flexing to and from its shape. It's extremely uncomfortable now because of all this. No actual cushion, constant leaning (the level on locks the reclining in place, there's nothing to stop it from leaning as its not supposed to do that to the side.)My tailbone hurts everytime I'm in this chair, it's terrible.Avoid at all costs.Original 2 Month review: Assembly was pretty straight forward. You have to tighten (as per the instructions) the screws every 2 weeks. Yet despite doing this, a weird rocking has built up slowly since the purchase. No amount of tightening will fix this. So I'm assuming if I'm lucky this chair only has a 4-5 month life span since it's already doing this 2 months in, as the screws aren't the problem.

Chair is good quality and is very strong.. I love the chair..
