I got this to work from home; I turned a small space in my bedroom into a little office. This chair is probably more form than function - I wouldn't get it if you are planning to spend long days in it. I work 6-8 hours a day, but I can take lots of breaks, so it's not that big of a deal to me. Pretty chair - the white leather will change color if you wear dark blue jeans while sitting on it, though! Fair warning!
