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)

Sturdy and comfortable
This chair is sturdy and comfortable especially if you need something for a bigger person. I’m a bigger guy over 350 pounds and I needed something that was going to be comfortable but also could handle my weight. This chair is really wide in the seat and has a lot more cushion than I expected. The back support is also great. It looks like your classic office chair and it has steel parts not cheap plastic. It is well worth the price.

Nice Chair
This is a nice chair. I am not “big and tall” but wanted a wider chair so that my small dogs could sit alongside me in an office chair while I work on managing our empire. I decided to purchase the good but used version to save a couple of dollars cause I’m cheap as heck, lol. Chair came in a somewhat damaged box. It was fairly easy to put together but the instructions are only picture so I wasn’t 100% sure about some things, like how to put the wheels on. The instructions didn’t say anything other than showing the male wheel part going in to the female chair part so I wasn’t sure they would click inside and hold in place but they did. It’s comfortable to sit in. Downside is that the lumbar piece that slides up and down doesn’t slide all the way down cause it’s meant for someone taller, haha.My biggest issue with the item is that all of the screws were not in the package. I am missing one of the screws where the back attaches on to the underneath of the chair seat and all of the arm piece screws are missing. So I cannot attach the arms to the chair. While I can use the chair without the arms in place, it sorta defeats the purpose of buying this chair cause I can’t put the pillow in place for the dogs to lay on. My own fault for saving a few dollars and buying a good but used chair. Had no idea it wouldn’t have all the parts to go with it. Hoping to buy the screws locally so I can attach the arms and the last screw on the bottom. Otherwise I’m happy with the item itself.

Ok here’s the skinny… I am not.I’m 5′ 5″ and likely over 340 lbs (I don’t use scales because they’re toxic to my soul).The average width of a seat is not problematic unless the arms aren’t adjustable so I wasn’t looking for a wide seat chair as much as a deep seated chair. You see, I have a plentiful backside and unless there are gaps between the chair back and chair seat, that fleshy part of my body pushes me forward. I’m always trying to prevent myself from slipping off (especially leather seats).Pros to this chair:1. The seat is deeper than the average.2. The arms are set wide because the seat is wider than the average.3. The arms can be tightened against the seat or an inch or so away from the seat so very accommodating.4. The arms can be left off entirely.5. The chair is fabric (not leather) so no slipping.6. The seat cushion is thick enough that my backside feels cradled *winky face*.7. The chair was relatively easy to assemble by myself.Cons to this chair:1. The chair is a little higher than the average chair so if you’re shorter like me, you’ll likely need a foot rest. I mean it is advertised as “Big and Tall” so I should have expected that.2. The chair feels a tiny bit wobbly. Now it’s entirely possible that I have some more tightening to do.3. The ‘lumbar supoort’ is not well placed or adjustable enough for someone with an extra large backside. I would like to be able to raise it higher.4. The chair doesn’t seem to roll as smoothly as my last chair.I recommend this chair to large bodied folks and in fact I’ve already suggested it to some friends.

Exactly what I need to work and game from home!I ordered and received this brand new chair 4 months ago and have been using it steadily every day since. I am a big and tall man (over 6ft, over 300lbs) and my previous work from home chair with a similar design (except plastic back support) finally wore and broke.I was searching for a chair with a wide seat and sturdy metal back support for my 40+ hours working from home and gaming, and this chair is the exact design I was looking for (mesh back + adjustable arms).Delivery/Assembly:The delivery was super fast – I got it within 2 days of ordering and it wasn’t fulfilled by Amazon. The packaging was brand new and well packed (I had read reviews of other chairs being delivered with opened packing after being returned). Though everything was well packaged, one of 4 plastic clips on the cosmetic plastic back plate had cracked off (see picture). This has not been an issue and the back plate remains secured to the chair 4 months later. If I lean back really far that corner will pop out slightly but the back plate hasn’t fallen off. This would be the only minor issue with the packaging/assembly. It even came with a very ergonomic alan key tool with a plastic grip for assembly, better than most furniture which comes with the simple L-shaped tool.Comfort:I find this chair to be very comfortable to be sitting in most of the day. The seat cushion is very comfortable and breathable, but I have placed a couple of pillows on it for added cushioning since I am using the chair soo much. This is also to preserve the chair cushion. When I first got the chair I kept it locked upright and felt that the lumbar support was set slightly high, until I boosted myself up with pillows. I now usually have the chair unlocked to freely recline and I appreciate the range of motion it allows.*One of the most important features is that I can push back in the reclining state without fear of the chair breaking or tipping over under my weight. The primary L-shaped bar which connects the seat is made of wide, thick metal and I do not worry that I will break the back or tip over, as I am wary of with other office chairs.The arm rests are very comfortable and can go fairly high. I sit all day with my arms rested on them as I type and they do not have any sharp edges and their material is soft to lean on.The reclining mechanism is simple to use and I do not experience the pneumatic support slowly lowering or getting shorter during the day, as I have heard in reviews of other office chairs.I don’t usually write reviews but I did a lot of research to find the perfect working from home chair and hopefully this will be helpful to others on the same search. I do find this to be a great value and one of the best office chairs I’ve ever used. I don’t just use this for work, I used to play games from my couch but have since transitioned to using this chair for gaming, so I am using it most of the day when home. Ultimately I give this chair 5/5 stars as it is the exact design I was looking for, is very comfortable and has the necessary support for someone of my size. None of the minor flaws seemed enough to warrant removing a star and the price is also much cheaper than other chairs I have seen with a similar look, but are not designed to handle over 300lbs. I hope this helps!UPDATE:The metal of the main mechanism which controls the height and attaches the leg to the seat cracked approximately 1.5 years after purchase.When I emailed the manufacturer to request a replacement part (which I said I would gladly pay for) they sent a brief reply stating that they are not “allowed” to send/sell replacement parts after the 90 day warranty has ended. For this reason I downgraded to 4/5 stars.I’ll still bought another of these chairs while waiting for their reply, as it was comfortable and lasted a year and a half of daily use all day.

Update: after a year of use the cushion is really uncomfortable and so it the lumbar support. They put some sort of metal structure under the cushion that pushes upwards and you can feel after sitting for a bit. Same with the lumbar support, that stupid “massage” thing has little balls in it that dig into your back. It’s not worth the money you save, buy a more expensive chair.The good, I’m a tall big dude, 6’5″ 280lbs so its hard to find chairs that are comfortable and at least right now this is comfortable. It also seems to be made out of decently thick steel for the most part which gives me hope it will last a decent period of time. Putting it together was pretty easy, took maybe 30min, they give you an allen key that you can torque without hurting your hand which is nice, they even give you spare screws.The bad, it doesn’t use standard parts. The gas cylinder is a class 4 which is good but its only 14″ long and an inch of that ends up below the chair, standard size is 15.5″ so its not very good for tall people. Also, by the amount it sank when I sat in it, I doubt it will have decent longevity before it starts sinking and needs to be replaced. I have to have it on the highest height in order to be at a normal desk height. Also, the wheels are also not a standard one, they’re tiny which is fine for looks but if you roll over even the smallest bump in the floor it gets stuck, also something you’ll probably have to replace in the future. The bottom piece is not one piece, it’s how IKEA does it where the legs are screwed into the centre which reduces its longevity. Lastly, the lumbar support only moves 2 inches and is quite small so it doesn’t really end up in my lower back.All in all, like I said in the title, if you can get it on sale which I did for 163 CAD including the 30 dollar shipping, its a good deal if you compare it to the other chairs for those of use descended from giants, which are closer to 250 or 300 but don’t expect a chair that doesn’t creak or wobble a bit cuz it does and made vary clear by the numerous large stickers all over it, its very much made in china.
