I searched and searched for a desk chair that was attractive, didn't have wheels and still had a height adjustment option - aesthetically this works; nice metal base that seems to be a powder coated black and the leatherette mimics the feel of real leather without looking cheap. However, the seat is extremely shallow so it's not comfortable for long periods of time. Considered returning, but this chair meets all of my other needs so it'll work for shorter sessions working at a desk.
