I bought this chair specifically because it was made for big and tall guys with weight capacity of 350lbs. Yes, the chair seems very sturdy to support that weight limit but it is very cheaply made and not at all comfortable. The moment I sat in the chair I hit the bottom. The cushioning is ridiculous and non-existent. Maybe I just don't know what the price of a quality office chair should cost but at $400 I would expect it to be a lot more comfortable than it is. If you sit on your but all day for work and you're looking for something comfortable, this is not the chair.
