Ordered this chair 7/2007, and four months later the chair broke. Something let go in the mechanism that allows the back of the chair to recline. The "Seat posture adjustment" lever no longer has any effect. Without seeing a working chair, cannot tell what exactly is wrong, by there is a heavy chromed bolt that is loose, and probably should not be.
Four months use is a not a good deal.
In construction this chair seems a notch about the usual inexpensive office chair. Free air circulation makes this chair much more comfortable on hot days.
Design-wise this chair is a near miss. Not by any means fancy, but generally well done - with one exception: There is not quite enough support on the back of the seat, and the metal frame there is too close. This might not be an issue for someone lighter than my 240lbs. Fairly small design changes could remove this problem.
Note also that the covering on the elastic is a bit rough. Does not bother me, but might be move of a problem for someone more thinly clad or more sensitive.
I cannot recommend this product as-is.

For the price this chair is great. It's made of hard plastic, with casters that are solid. The seat and back cushions are comfortable, and there is good back support. It should last several years. Assembly was easy with very clear directions. It's hard to believe you can get a chair like this for under $20.
