I set up an office/craft area in the garage with an adjustable height workbench.  I wanted a chair that could adjust high enough to work with the varying heights of the workbench.  Since it will be rolling around on concrete and possibly exposed to dust and dirt, I replaced the original wheels with heavy-duty casters (purchased separately).  This works great.  I like the height range and that the arms fold up.  With the heavy duty casters that I installed it's too high for a "normal" height desk but it's perfect for the adjustable height workbench/desk or drafting table.   With the original casters it would be a nice desk chair.   As some have mentioned the position of the back might not be ideal for a larger person. I'm 5'1" and my son is a very slender 5'9" and we like it. My husband is an average middle-aged size 5'9" and he says it's not comfortable for him since he feels like it's pushing him off the seat.
