It’s beautiful but the hydraulic system is tight. I cannot get the seat to go down just by pulling the lever when I sit on it. I have to use the desk to push against to force more pressure on it for it to move down. Full disclosure I only weigh 100 lbs and a friend who weighs 200 lbs had no issues with adjusting the height. Hopefully some WD-40 will fix the problem. If it weren’t for the stiff hydraulic ram I would have given it 5 stars.
