    21st Century Furniture Tech! Easy Assembly, Great Quality Control, Solid Build, Smooth Operation

    Patient and careful searching pays off! I looked over a few hundred chair types on about 10 websites over a month of comparisons. I knew exactly what we wanted in covering, arms, height of back, and tilt/height features. Weve bought chairs that started falling apart after a couple of years, and wanted to avoid that. After making some noncritical compromises -- we didnt want to pay $2000 for a chair, we originally wanted bigger arms, wider seats, and even higher backs-- we bought two, one of each color, one at a time. We bought the first one; assembled it and checked it out and used it; then ordered the second. As of now weve had them less than a month, but already they feel totally a part of our home. To me these were built carefully, with the critical and discerning repeat customer in mind. First, the fabric feels genuinely tough. I think its better than natural leather. Well still treat it with a protective substance on a regular basis. Assembly is straightforward. All the pieces fit together with 21st century precision! I used a rubber mallet to pop each of the 5 wheels into its perfectly-fitting hole. The wheels are solid and roll smoothly. The raise/lower works straightforwardly and effectively. There are two tilt modes. One is a nonmovable tilt which you can easily set as far forward or back as you like. The moving tilt is easily set and holds comfortably however far you lean back. My wife likes her tilt pressure light on her chair, mine is heavier. Im a 212 lb. man, 18 1/2 inches wide with clothing. This chairs width seats me comfortably, with about an inch to spare widthwise. Im 59. The top part of the back of my head touches 1-2 inches below the top portion of the seat back. So, this chair checks okay in every area for us. The one exception I found is that a cheap Allen wrench was supplied. Each was junk by the time the chair was assembled.
