Review on Enhance Your Workspace with the HON HVST141 Task Chair: Height Arms, Adjustable Lumbar, Black by Heather Davis

After reading VERY FEW reviews on this chair I decided to take a chance. Box without dents or damage. I think anyone experiencing this issue should report it to their local carrier. My box has arrived safely. I opened the packaging and found that every part of the chair was covered with acceptable packaging material. Attitude: Let me say that first. THIS COMES WITH ALL TOOLS FOR ASSEMBLY. That's a plus point for me, because unfortunately I don't have my own bunch of keys. It can look overwhelming when you pull out the pieces, but installation is easy. The instructions are IKEA style but I assembled it myself in 20 minutes. It's very easy. However, I didn't tighten my hands until I was happy with the results. The propellers are like that and seem sturdy so I'm not afraid of falling lol. In the end, the installation was easy and straightforward. Comfort: It's a big and high chair, but hardly in my opinion. I'm 6ft tall and I can still fit all 4 fingers between my squat and the edge of the chair. This is not optimal for blood flow [according to my ergonomics specialist]. The seat needs to be longer. Chair width is ok. Enough space. The gasket seems fine. This chair is only my second day and I personally don't think it will last more than a year or two. Which is normal for a $160 chair. I have a $3,000 chair that my work paid for, so maybe I'm a little spoiled, but the quality is noticeable. The integrated lumbar support is good, I'm tall enough to be effective. However, if you are under 5ft 11", I can see this being an issue. The armrests are suitable, I like that they are adjustable (this is important for body comfort). Also if you are over 6ft tall I don't think this chair will fit you as even at the highest "height" setting my feet are completely on the floor leaving room for headroom. The chair feels very heavy at the base and I can put my feet up which is nice. Is the chair worth $160? - Hardly. I wouldn't pay more. I'll be using it at work and will update the information in a while. Should You Buy?: In my opinion, if you're between 5'9" and 6'1" tall and slightly wider, YES. This is a cheaper alternative to the chairs you would customize for custom orders. If your height is greater than your width - NO. It's just that the chair seat part isn't long enough. I give it 4 stars because "I love it" but I don't like it. It should not be advertised as a high chair for men, but simply called a wide chair. Don't call it "Big Tall". I'm not a handyman, I don't have a tape measure right now, but if you reply me I can measure any size for you. :)
