I love this chair! I had totally agonized over this purchase - it is more difficult than I thought to find an adjustable office chair that's not tacky. I love that the legs are matte black through the bottom. I was able to carry the package upstairs of my building myself and assemble the chair myself in less than 5 minutes. Very comfortable! I will say that I do need the lumbar pillow - I'd be sat too far back in the chair to sit comfortably at a desk for very long without it.
