It seemed pricy to me for what it was but honestly I fell in love with it so much that I just didn't care, I splurged to wrap up my office makeover project and I have zero regrets. The gold color I chose goes so magically with my deep purple accent wall and I love that it swivels. It's also super comfy, especially if you sit in the chair with your feet up! Top notch, no regrets! Even sold a few friends on it online because they loved my photos so much!
