Good chair, but quality issues...
I didn't even make it 2 steps in without hitting my first issue.
One of the threaded inserts on the seatback seemed to be defective, which made screwing in one of the screws for the arm all the way impossible. After screwing it in about 1/3 of the way in, it would completely seize up and no amount of force would get it to screw in all the way. I tried unscrewing it all...

Arms move!
Love the fact I can lift the arms up when I need to move in closer to my desk or kitchen table.

Black mesh office chair
Good chair but not comfortable. I would not buy again. I sit for 6 or 7 hours so I think I need a more comfortable chair.

Super comfortable sturdy chair
This chair is priced like big box furniture, but built like office chairs 3x or 4x the price. To top it off, the chair only took 15 minutes to assemble. I bought this chair because it looked similar to my office chair at work and I wanted those features for the home computer. This one delivered that in spades!

Excellent chair! Comfortable
This chair was one we originally discovered in a hotel and we tracked down the part number to purchasing it from Staples. Very cool and comfortable.

comfortable chair
My daughter has this chair in her home office. I liked it so much that I ordered one too. I really like this chair and looks great in my office.
The only scary thing was that the box arrived torn in several places and the chair legs were sticking out. Luckily the chair appeared not damaged.

So far so good
This is what I like: Assembly was super easy with easy instructions and didn't take long. The chair is the right height for my desk. Seems comfortable (I've used it for 1 day so far)

Terrible, useless chair
This is completely useless chair. Very bad seat design. I am getting slipped due to this bad seat design. I wanted to give zero for this product. There is no option for that. I request staples to add zero rating option also.

Economical and functional
For the price it's a very good chair. A big improvement would be to have non-fabric arms to easily clean and sanitize.
