Big Guy's Newfound Support

My old office chair, mostly plastic (industrial grade but plastic) broke as soon as I intuitively knew it was time for an upgrade. I immediately felt the difference in the heavy casters, steel frame and armrests of this new chair. It's day and night when I feel safe sitting on it. Working comfortably for two weeks and all day (thanks to COVID WFH). Assembly was a bit tricky as the cushions are completely plush and you have to squeeze them with one hand while holding the brace with the second hand and turning the allen wrench with the third hand. In addition, it was simple, convenient and stable. *** (EDIT) *** Update: downgraded to 3 stars. The chair leans back. I saw how to remove this in another review. In addition, after several months of daily 10-hour use, the seat cushion will shrink quite a bit, and the seat will become less comfortable with long-term use. Overall it's like a slight forward lean, so I need to keep moving up. The backrest and seat are at a fixed angle so while the entire seat reclines, my hips and lower back are held in place and only my knees are extended when I recline. The most annoying problem is the clamps for the hands. Now I don't close the caps to tighten the armrests daily. Tried Loctite Blue and it didn't stop it from loosening. Regarding the seat depth mentioned in other reviews, I'm 6ft 4 inches tall and the seat depth is fine for me. However, my height is 70/30. So I complain about the headrest. too short. Again, I can bang my head against reading lights on small planes. Therefore, you should pay attention to your body when choosing the size.
