Promising review: "I can't say enough good things about this chair. Very solidly made. Lovely to look at. Comfortable to sit in. Incredibly inexpensive for what you get. And - important to me, at least - very easy and simple to put together. It doesn't lean back - which might be nice - but I would guess that at least two things that I say above - inexpensive and easy to assemble - wouldn't be as true if that were the case. And I will happily trade leaning back for both of those. A fabulous buy - and chair." —Bennett Cohen

Promising review: "I agonized over this purchase because nice office chairs can be SO expensive. This one was has totally been worth the purchase price. It’s very comfortable to sit in, reclines back pretty far, and the fabric is soft. My husband wanted the look of a tan leather chair; it looks like leather but won’t crack like leather from being sat in all day." —AJM

Promising review: "Easy assembly, great quality, and it feels wayyyy better than a budget-friendly chair option (take it from me, I've gone the cheap route before). I'm very happy with this purchase. It looks just like the picture and it feels great to sit in. I spend far too many hours daily at my desk so I needed a comfortable chair that went with the aesthetic of my office space and this chair delivers. If you sit at your desk for a many hours as I do, spend the extra money on a good chair like this one. Your back will thank you!" —Lameca

Promising review: "My WFH office is in a corner of the kitchen. I refuse to buy an ugly office chair. Been sitting in this chair for over a year and I still like it. It's the perfect height for the desk and I love the colors (blush and gold). Assembly is very easy...screw in the nails...flip over chair...and sit. If I ever have to go back to the office then this chair will be placed in the guest room (can't do that with an ugly desk chair)." —TravelProGirl

Promising review: "I’m obsessed with this chair!! I love the color and the fact that it doesn’t have wheels. The spin function is smooth and the armrests are at the perfect height for me. It’s comfy enough that I can sit all day while I work from home. Very quick to put together too." —Erin

Promising review: "I love this chair! I have a glass desk and was looking for a clear chair and finally decided to go for it. I put a sheepskin chair throw on top of it and it looks so chic! It is not the most comfortable chair in the world but I can still sit in this for hours. I think I am going to add carpet gliders to the bottom of the legs so I can easily move it on the carpet. Everyone who comes over says how good the chair looks! I definitely recommend this!" —A

Because of its petite stature, lots of reviewers have used this as an affordable option for their kids.
Promising review: "Was unsure about this one, but it's great. Its very petite (great for small desks) but still as tall as other chairs. Super cute, assembled in like two minutes, and pretty comfortable. I haven't tested sitting in it for a full 8–9 hour day yet, but this is great if you need a slim chair to not take up too much room that still is effective." —Cara

Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for. It fits perfectly under my desk and is very discreet. It is also surprisingly comfortable! I was not expecting it to be. And I love that it has the rollers. Also, WAY easier to put together than I thought! Just make sure to wipe off the silver part that you can see through the seat of the chair very well, I had to go back and take it apart because you could see fingerprints." —KH

Promising review: "I had been putting off getting myself a new chair for some time, and I finally pulled the plug and went with this one and I am over the moon with how wonderful it is. The size is fantastic, it is providing just what I was looking for in a new office chair. It is comfortable, roomy, and easy to assemble. I decided to go with one without wheels, as the desk I was looking to utilize it for is in my home office and the wheels would not suit my space. I still find it so easy to move around if needed, but have been surprised on how little I move my chair since it does not have wheels. I am in love. I only wish I had ordered it sooner!" —Sarah

Promising review: "I absolutely love the color and feel of this chair! It is exactly what I was looking for as my desk chair! It's the perfect color for my room theme and feels so soft! It's very aesthetically pleasing and the seat and back are nice and wide so there's lots of room to sit on and be comfortable. The height ranges are nice and fit a variety of desk heights. I have a smaller roll top desk at home and it fit perfectly in that space." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "My new office chair is amazing. The color is beautiful in a marigold shade. It was easy to set up and came with all of the parts. I find the terrycloth exterior uber comfortable, especially when sitting in shorts or skirts. You do not stick to the fabric. It turns easy. I would highly recommend this chair to anyone looking for something fun and artsy for your office. It comes in a variety of colors. It's very sturdy, love the extra wide seat for when I'm working at night and need to shift position. It's a great product." —Goodie Bandit
