Flash FurnitureKale Mid-Back Swivel Office Chair with Height Adjustable Foot Ring and Lumbar Support, Mesh Executive Chair with Armrests, Dark Gray

Assembly took about 20 minutes, pretty intuitive and easy. Comfort is moderate but definitely better than working from home at the dinner table or couch. Love that the arm rests move up and down. Worth the value for the price. Agree with other reviews that the foot rest is a little too small in circumference/diameter, because you have to tuck feet underneath the chair to rest on it (rather than it being a 90° angle at your knees). I also love that the height range is so great. I can use it at my bar height table or a normal height desk, depending on which room I’m working in.

I had 1 minor issue. The fabric used on the seat was a little smoother than anticipated and therefore just a little slippery. I contacted Flash Customer support and they suggested sending me a replacement seat, but I declined. I just didn't believe that copy of the same thing would resolve the situation. Flash customer support responded to my inquiry in a timely manner and in a very professional manner. They continued to try to help me until both of us came to the conclusion that there was nothing else they could do to help.

PROS:1. Cheap, can't find a cheaper one that facilitate sit and stand & still give you lumbar support.2. Arm rests swing up and out of the way, this is a big deal. Fixed ones are very problematic because they deny you the ability to bring the seat to the right height below the desk for comfort and interfere with keyboard tray.3. Easily adjust up and down, rotate front and back for lumbar relief.4. Quality components, they are nice to the touch, unlike the cheapo junk ones you pick up at big box stores.5. Easy to assemble with the Allen wrench provided. Parts fit together rather well.CONS:1. The diameter of the foot rest ring is small, you really can't put your feet on it to rest or to support yourself when the stool/seat is all the way up. Even it it is big enough, the ring will get in the way if your seat is all the way down and you want to put feet on the floor, and it will never be big enough for you to extend your feet out forward for an ideal greater than 90 degree obtuse angle between feet and thigh about the knee. My answer is a step stool underneath the desk.***************For an inexpensive solution, at $56 Gray (hiked up to $84 today) as opposed to $164 White, $158 Black, $104 Blue, you can't do better. Expensive ones usually disappoint, there is a chair website that tests them all and their testers cannot agree on which one is the best. Not sure how a chair can cost $1k or even $500, most people rarely use all the ergonomic functionality provided. It's best to learn how to properly stand, sit and work, and not think a magical solution exists in a perfect chair. I am a cheap skate, and an architect who have worked with vendors to spec "contract furniture" chairs for office solutions. They start around $350 to above $1k each.First of all, there is no such a thing as a "best" sitting chair. The reason is very simple, extended sitting is bad for your health. If you don't get up or move about or change posture every 30 min, you will ruin your health (spinal, neck, arms, legs, etc.) but you won't notice it until pains and all sorts of problems kick in. So the goal is not to get the best chair for sitting, but a chair that accommodates the ideal, optimal frequent and consist, always changing stand-sit-work set up. I have a big electric table for years, picked up at IKEA for $100 because it is as-is, that moves up and down to easily facilitate switching between standing, leaning and sitting, but I have yet to find a chair/stool that makes it easy to do work with all such options.

It's ok... Easy to put together. Seat tips forward which may be an issue for working - the reason I bought it.

I purchased a chair that had previously been returned but still good condition. Everything was included in the box (except the allen wrench, but we had one in our toolbox) and it was fairly easy to put together. Love this chair! Very comfy, has adjustable height and good back support. Recommend!

Good chair, needed an office chair for a high table and others were much too tall. This has a good range and a deep seat, the arms that lift are helpful too. Happy with the purchase

Short Review: This chair does not hold up and the foot-ring and seat adjustment failed in less than three years. Not an item I would recomend.Long Review: For reference, I bought this chair in November 2021, and it is now December 2024 when I am writing this review, because, with larger purches (a subjective term, I know) we sometimes never know if spending the money was worth it until some time has passed.When I first purchased and started using it, I only had two complaints. One: it was a little squeaky because some of the bolts simply wouldn't tighten -- they'd spin in place like their holes were stripped. An two: the footrest ring would slowly slip during the day, so I found myself readjusting it every morning and once in the afternoon.After 7 months, I transitioned into a space that had a standard-height desk, and two key features of this chair were no longer needed. The footrest became obsolete because my feet could reach the floor. And the seat no longer needed to sit at it's max height. So, for 12 months it acted as a standard-heoght office chair.From June '23-July'24 I only used the chair very infrequently, as I had begun doing 95% of my work from other rooms in the house rather than my home office. Soz for a year, it went virtually unused.Fast-forward to August of this year, 2024. I have a standing desk again, and I slide this chair up to it, and I readjust the seat and the foot ring and... It's just terrible. Despite having not been locked in place for a year the foot-ring refuses to stay up, making it absolutely useless. And the seat constantly sinks down, requiring many adjustments throughout the day.I didn't expect a generic office chair from Amazon to last as long as a some $300 professional piece, but to not even hold up to the equivalent of 2 years worth of use is ridiculous.

Comfortable high chair. No confidence on durability and product life.
