Review on Fix Sinking Office Chair Replacement by Ashley Stewart

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good product but could be better.

Yes I know it's just a simple 3D printed plastic clip meant to secure my sinking office chair. So it really isn't that much. It comes with three plastic clips, each 4cm high. You just pry it up with your fingers, then slide it onto the hydraulic shaft and snap into place (it doesn't really have a dedicated latch, it just snaps into place). I installed two of these in seconds but it was too much for me. So I had to use pliers to remove one of them (it bent the plastic a bit but didn't ruin the clip). I think a flathead screwdriver or a sturdy butter knife will work best for removing it in the future. know it might break next week). But it's also a matter of design. It would have been a much more valuable product if the manufacturer had included different sizes instead of three identical sizes. a mid-rise piece would be the perfect complement and elevates this product to a star. UPDATE 7/14/2021: Like I said, I'm a big guy and they couldn't handle my weight. I think they will work just fine if you don't shop in the store's Big Tall section, but my clasp ended up breaking and it fell off. However, I am not changing my original review as I think most people will benefit from this product. with clamp. You know those metal clamps that you tighten onto the hose with a screwdriver? I put two of these around this ring and it held up very well to that extra boost. If you're a big guy I highly recommend buying hose clamps and using them for extra support; this makes them last longer.
