Very modern looking chair. Swivel is very smooth all the way around. There isn't much cushioning on the seat, but if you're buying this product, you're probably buying it for the look anyways. Only minor thing I've noted is I have trouble adjusting the height downwards. I think you need to be around 120lbs or more for the adjustable mechanism. My heavier friends/family don't have issues, but anyone on the lighter side has noticed this as well. Overall, great buy!
