Comfortable, easy to use, nice adjustments
Note: As pictured i’ve added larger carpet casters (not included) – I’d highly recommend these for carpeted offices to avoid having to deal with the hassle of a chair mat.I’ve tried over a dozen different office chairs, and only 2 or 3 have met my expectations – and this is one of them. A few features that I appreciate:- The armrests have a good range of motion for height adjustments, some chairs the minimum armrest height is too low. These ones go as low as I want, and they are easy to adjust (which I do when I switch tasks from typing to gaming)- The armrests are “free floating” so they move around as your elbows move. Some reviewers complained about this, but I actually like it.- The seat height and angle adjustment is good and easy – set it once and forget it.- The seat cushion is very comfortable – supportive and firm, but not punishing. I can sit in this chair for 12 hours and not get sore (although I wouldn’t want to do that often)- The only part I’m not in love with is the back adjustment. It has 3 adjustments for how much tension on the recline function. I’d prefer the infinitely adjustable, or at least more intermediate settings. I’ve settled on the middle setting, but it still feels maybe 10% too firm, while the loose setting is WAY to unsupportive.Overall very happy – one of the best office chairs I’ve owned to date. And for the price, as far as premium office chairs go, it’s a good value.

Really, really good. Armrests are hard as rocks, though.
Very comfortable. Lots of adjustments so you can find the right fit. Been using mine a lot. Been using one for 18 months and one for 6 months. Still look new. I’m 6’1″ 250lbs so this chair has not had the easiest life. Very sturdy.Only downside is that the armrests are hard as rocks. Your elbows are going to get sore… fast.However, that is easily fixable with aftermarket armrest covers. Lots of options if you search for “Neoprene Chair Arm Pad Covers” or similar. I tried a few and these are the best blend of fit and comfort. Unlike some of the others they look like they are part of the chair and not some weird aftermarket thing. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BXBQ5AII'm torn about giving this five stars. One one hand… it’s not cheap, and this is a lot of money to pay for something with rock hard arm rests.On the other hand… it’s easy to fix and even if you pay a few bucks for the aftermarket arm rests… this is STILL a bargain compared to other high end office chairs which are easily over 1K dollars.Let me put it this way… after buying the first one I was happy to buy a second. That’s the ultimate endorsement right?

Probably the easiest desk chair that I’ve ever assembled.
There is beauty in the simplicity of this chair. Sure, you don’t have a million dials and switches on the base for fine tuning, but it hits all the basics and while I initially was taken back by the fact that it only has 3 settings for the backrest support (rigid, firm and soft), I have found that’s all that I really need. I should note that mine arrived with more of the assembly done than the Steelcase videos even indicated. For instance, the armrests were already installed and I didn’t have to attach the back to the base. Made me wonder if mine was a return, demo or something like that but it appears to be in like new condition. Anyway, I had it all together and adjusted to my liking in all of 5 min. which is great!I feel like this chair corrects a lot of my bad habits w/out being a nag about it. I find myself sitting with improved posture and with proper support at the three key touch points- Arms, back, butt. I would say that if there is a weak link among those three, it’d maybe be at the arms as they sort of vaguely move around laterally sometimes and I find myself sort of resetting them every so often to where I think they should be for me. They also are fairly thin and lightweight so I have some concern about durability but only time will tell there.Steelcase claims the chair can support up to 400lbs, which to me, indicates that it should hold up under the kind heavy daily use that I bought it for as an intensive home office user. Some complaints in reviews I read ahead of purchase were related to the seat cushion being too hard. I would tend to disagree there as I think it strikes a perfect balance of comfort/supportiveness. As with a bed mattress, softer isn’t always better in my experience. As for the rest, it feels like an upscale economy chair rather than anything more luxurious with lots of plastic but it’s all well-done. I guess for the price paid, that’s fair and my wife indicated that she prefers this to any other desk chair that I’ve brought home thus far. I’d say that’s high praise.I think that unless you are willing to go closer to a grand or more, this is a great option- Particularly if you are under 6′ tall. If you are larger, you will likely want to add the optional headrest for additional support as the chair back covers me at 5’10” just barely. Otherwise, maybe steer clear of this one, but for the average size adult, it really shines.

Great chair for working from home
I work from home and am in my desk chair at least 8 hours of every day. I could not get comfortable in my old Knoll chair and was looking for something better. Because this chair is so adjustable it feels like it was made just for me. Chair height, recline, lumbar, seat depth, and arm height are all adjustable. While some reviewers did not like the 4-way adjustable armrests, I really like them. As the day goes on and I switch from heavy mouse time to keyboard time, I can move the armrests to the right placement for me. They might be better with a little more padding but overall, they’re great. The mesh seat back does not get too hot. The seat has a lot of padding and is supportive and I like that you can set the seat depth. Assembly was ridiculously easy. I think it took more time to unpack it from the box than the literal 2 minutes it took to assemble. For reference, I am 5’3″ but my husband is 6’3″ and he said it was very comfortable for him too. Also, I love the orange color. This chair is well worth the price. I consider it an investment in my health since I am in this chair so much day to day.

Great chair, very comfortable.
Eliminator Performance –
I’m 6’3″ and weigh 205lbs, this chair was much smaller than it looked in the photos (I guess I should’ve read the dimensions 1st) was easy to assemble but compared to other “mid back” chairs selling for the same price, I found this chair to lack adjustments and overall felt fragile. The recline spring, in the strongest position didn’t hold my weight. This caused me to sit in an uncomfortable position. It was fairly simple to disassemble but you need a hammer and pipe wrench (as per Steel cases disassembly video). Amazon allowed me to return it for free, and I purchased the Hon Ignition 2.0 which I would highly recommend if you’re a bit bigger. Get the head rest too.

En general es una muy buena silla, vale lo que cuesta. Su diseño ergonómico la hace muy cómoda para estar sentado varias horas. Muy resistente y construcción robusta. Si estabas buscando comprar una herman miller pero el precio es muy elevado, definitivamente esta es una opción perfecta.

Good chair, had it for two months, super easy assembly, a $700 chair in Canada. On the other hand, this chair won several “best of category” awards by major media so it’s a good chair and quite comfortable. I am a little worried about how it will hold up, as it seems less sturdy than the Alera Elusion chair (another award winner, $450 in Canada) that I also bought two months ago.
