So far this seems to be a solid chair.   I like some of the features such as the back that can be adjusted to lean back and allows you to lock in a leaning back position.  Also the seat can tilt back as well.  I thought based on the deacription that the seat would tilt forward placing the front lower than the back.   This does not seem to work.  The chair was easy to assemble and so far has been comfortable.    One reason I didn't rate the chair higher is that it was not packed well and the finish on the back of the chair is scratched.    For me it is not worth taking apart to ship back.  Too much hastle.    I would recommend this chair if you are searching for a mid back task chair.
