The vinyl on this seat looks and feels premium. The ability to adjust the forward/backward position, backrest angle and suspension according to the operator's weight is much appreciated. I doubt you could find a better place for the money. We used this seat to replace a worn seat on a bulldozer and it worked great. A bulldozer is certainly heavier on the seat than a forklift, but a bulldozer seat is always subject to wear and tear from the weather, making this a very economical replacement compared to reupholstering an old seat.
