Review on πŸ’Ί Stylish and Comfortable HON Volt SofThread Leather Office Stool: Perfect for Standing Desks, Black by David Perry

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Defective after 6 months. Rather spend your money on a higher quality chair.

I've seen reviews that say the up/down gas cylinder fails on this thing, but although "er, this is probably a one-off product, I'm sure they already are have done fixed". Answer: They don't. I used this chair for about 6 months, after which it began to randomly fall into the lowest position at the most inconvenient times, which would be weird if not so frustrating. When I'm with Ian in Accounting on Zoom, my whole body falls out of frame like a shaky shot of a community college movie. "But can't you just replace the gas bottle?" I hear you ask. "They're cheap. "Yes, yes you can. But if you're going to do it, do it for the love of Pete before you even assemble him. Removing an old incontinence gas cylinder after 6 months of holding onto my sturdy rear end was comp calibratable by removing the caliper on a 1988 Caprice that spent its entire life on an Indiana dirt road. Pipe wrenches, levers, a flashlight, and enough YouTube videos to send an aspiring influencer to internet college, I finally got this thing out and destroyed the top hat and footstool it became one with forever, so what about the Likes of the jealous Kirk Camron. All that needs to be said when considering a chair's purpose in life, it's pretty simple: to keep a person comfortable. This one gets a B with a minus on the last from the community college and a complete failure on the first.

Pros
  • A one year trial period
Cons
  • Nothing
