This chair is perfect for our small office. It looks nice, is comfortable and sturdy. I think it would be too small for a big guy but works for an average sized person. The seat height is not adjustable, but it's the right height for our desk. The chair is a medium gray and soft. I like it because it supports my back when I sit and it swivels. Assembly took 5-10 minutes. It's just what I was looking for!
