This is a perfect chair for my needs - craft room with a big table and lots of tables and stuff on the floor.  A regular office chair would have been too big and bulky for the space.  This chair is perfect and the quality is remarkably good for an inexpensive chair.  It is not, however, an office chair - not appropriate for an adult to sit for long periods of time working at a computer.  It would be fine for a young child or adolescent.
