Very Big Deal
The Flash chair is a big sized chair that is built like a brick ____house. I was very surprised how sturdy it is built. We like the fabric instead of sweaty leather. I thought the price was very reasonable and it was relatively easy to assemble.

Sturdy
I like this chair. For the most part it is comfortable enough for my 5'4" frame in a 9 hour work day. I am also 300+ lbs so it needed to be sturdy as well. So far, no problems there. It is plenty wide. I can get both arms in between the rests with me.
I like that you can raise & lower the seat but really miss being able to tilt/tip backwards to stretch. That i...

First impression
Got the chair home, and assembly went smoothly. Instructions were pretty well documented, and I was able to complete by myself in about 45 minutes.
Chair is comfortable and seems very solid.
The only negative noted is that adjustment of the tilt tension is difficult to reach due to the size of the seat.
I am 6 feet tall and weigh 320 pounds. The chair feels solid wh...

Comfy Chair for a BIG guy
So far, I'm lovin it. It's comfortable enough to sit in for hours. I catch myself dozing off just by sitting in it. Real easy setup, don't pay for assembly! I'm 6'3, 350lbs if that helps. Definitely recommend!

Only for fat guys
The company that makes these is out of business.Just let me say this: The spring in these chairs is apparently designed to only work for individuals that weigh 500 lbs.---I weigh 195 lbs. I thought I could just buy a different spring Still, if you are a big man there is much to like in this chair.
I thought I could just buy a lighter spring. No.

nice chair,but,
Very comportable, fits my 6' frame well. After assembly, could not adjust to tilt. the knob for adjusting will turn, but the screw/bolt is jammed so tight against the plate it will not move. Left a message at the company, but have not heard back.

Terrible
This chair is terrible. It tilts to the left, and one of the spots where the wheels go in broke so they had to send me a new base. I thought maybe that was what was responsible for the tilt. Nope. It's loud, like really loud. Creaking every time I have to readjust because of the tilt. And it was put together correctly by 2 capable maintenance men who put 3 other chairs ...

So Far So good
The chair itself looks good and I think it is comfortable . We will see over time how it holds up. Came in a half ripped box with all of the parts thrown in. Luckily no damage but not a good packing job. Instructions were minimal but everything went together well. One issue was the tilt, as some other buyers reviews also stated. However, one review stated that the heigh...

It's OK
Very sturdy feeling, but a bit small, and uncomfortable for me.
For those saying it doesn't tilt - it does. You pull the height adjustment lever outward, this unlocks the base, it has a very stout spring and I had to adjust the tension to it's lightest point. Even then it's hard to get it to tilt back. When it tilts back you have to keep pressure on it with your legs -...

Flash Furniture Hercules GO2078 Great Purchase.
The chair is easy to assemble and is very sturdy. This is a very good buy. The only problem with the chair would be that it could be a touch wider for those of us with amble bottoms.

Sturdy with a solid feel
The chair seems very sturdy with a solid feel. Two things stopped me from giving it a 5 star. One, it was a little hard to align the bolts for mounting the back to the seat. (Using a socket wrench instead of the supplied hex key wrench gave just a little extra force needed). The second item is that I would have liked a little more adjustment of the seat "lean back" tens...
