It says 350lbs, but that's for the pneumatics only, the rest of the materials will degeriorate with far less weight.
Weight rating can be misleading.  Its a standard generic, mid-back, height adjustable chair.  The arms and anchors will not hold up to weightier persons despite the 350 rating, which is really just on the pneumatics only.<br /><br />Leaning back in this chair will be what breaks it, usually in the arm's, as it relies on the arms to keep the back and seat together.  If not the arms, then the nuts the screws anchor into, will break free from the particle board and then the chair is scrap.<br /><br />If you're wider, and if you're above 200lbs search for a better chair, and sadly that will be in the 200 dollar range.  The chair I use currently was a 2nd hand special, normally 899 new, 250 &#34;used&#34;, but the the build, stability and life (10 years I've had it, plus who knows how long the previous owners had it) are excellent, and I was hoping a &#34;heavy weight chair&#34; would be enough, but its no comparison.  The healthline chair is for thin people 200lbs or less, despite the BIFMA rating.<br /><br />I've gone through 3 of the &#34;350lb&#34; chairs like this one ... I shouldn't have bought it and its too much hassle to send it back, I've got some kids that could use it when their parents come over..
