Amazon Basics Executive Home Office Desk Chair - Adjustable Height & Tilt, Padded Armrests, Rolling Swivel Chair - 275 lb Capacity in White & Pewter - Perfect for Remote Work, Gaming & Study Spaces

I will try to be as honest as possible because I depend on other people's reviews and feel I want to help the best I can: Back in 2017 I bought 2 of these chairs for my wife and myself. At the time we could afford them, they seemed well made, and they were small enough to fit in our office together, but large enough to be comfortable. When we get home from work, we sit in our desk chairs a lot, plus my wife has an accounting business in the evenings. They were already getting plenty of use when COVID in 2020 hit and we both found ourselves working from home for a year or more, and now sitting most of the day in those chairs. So, I was not surprised when a few months ago, both of them suddenly started shredding their fake leather cushion covers. Little pieces at a time. But the hydraulics worked, the arms were on strong, and the base was in great shape. We had upgraded the Wheels to those roller-blade styles, and even they were in good shape. 7 Years is a pretty good run for a Fake Leather well-used desk chair. I started searching for 2 replacement chairs. I could now afford a better chair I thought. However, unless I want to enter a whole new zone, all desk chairs use fake leather. After searching Amazon for 2 months, I finally realized, if these AMAZON BASIC chairs can meet all my needs, and not break down until the fake leather starts flaking off under heavy use in 7 years’ time … why not just try them again. To be cautious I bought one to test it. I had forgotten how easy to read the instructions were, how easy to figure out and how quick and easy to put together. I allowed an hour and was done in 12 minutes, INCLUDING taking the old chair apart so I could throw it away. (I kept the bolts from the old chair just in case.) This new Chair was an exact duplicate of the old Chair from 2017. The parts, the size, the quality, and the looks. Frankly it’s as if I am in my old chair except without peeling fake leather. I will say this. Because it happens gradually, the old chair had kind of conformed to my body and butt. This new one feels stiffer and stronger in the places where the old one had weakened. I was pleased enough to just go ahead and buy the 2nd chair so now I have two new chairs side by side that match and to be honest my brain does not even think anything differently when I walk into the room and see them. I think my brain still sees those same chairs from 2017. I highly Recommend. Good luck.
