This desk chair is very well cushioned and is beautiful. The back is a little awkward in my opinion because it is SO upright. I have it so I can lean back but the way it hits is still a little awkward, like it needs to be about 5 inches taller so you can rest your head or be less upright. I love that I can sit cross-legged in it. I wish the legs had wheels but at least it swivels so I can easily get in and out of my desk still.
