New Purple Fabric Ergonomic Task Review

New Purple Fabric Ergonomic Task
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Bought this because it was cheap - okay, the purple color intrigued me also.
You wouldn't expect expert craftsmanship for this price, and you indeed don't get it - visible seams, cheap plastic, etc.
Assembly is about average on the frustration scale. Once you realize that the only way the screws (which are already screwed into the cushions for storage - don't look for them in a bag) will ever go in properly is to throw away every flat washer they tell you to use, it's fairly simple to put together.
It's not a horrible chair. If you are less than 5'4" and not over 100 pounds, this may be fairly comfy. If you weigh any more than that, as soon as you sit on it - pffffffttt - you're on the ground. It's made for older children / smaller adults, and it's cheap. If you're buying a chair for someone who doesn't have back problems and you dont want to spend any more money than you have to, this will do. But don't buy one for yourself. I'm considering bringing my dining room chair back into the computer room as I type this.

Not a good design, can't use it with a computer, no height adjustment. Dealer is a slick talker, will try to get you to keep it instead of returning it.

Wooden Ergonomic Kneeling Posture Chair w Recliner Back Review

Short and simple review... I'll likely update this later after I've used it for a month or so.
The chair seems sturdy enough, although it says it has a 200lbs weight limit which is not apparent from the description here. I'm 6'4" and 220lbs but it seems to be fine.
The height adjustability is reasonable, although if you go for more sit on butt and less pressure on knees the whole thing lowers. This is kind of rough on a tall person.
Padding... here's the biggest hit against the chair; it's just too thin on padding. I can only bear about an hour of it before either my knees, my butt, or both are hurting or getting somewhat numb.
I paid about $120 for this including shipping -- I suppose that's a good enough price for what it is, but I am betting the designer of this chair didn't spend more than 10 minutes sitting in it.
(raised star rating by one after several months of use, see my comment below)

Kneeling Office Chair with Blue Fabric Seat and Wood Frame - WL-SB-310-GG Review

Kneeling Office Chair with Blue Fabric Seat and Wood Frame - WL-SB-310-GG

I had a chair like this previously when I worked in a doctor's office. I liked how it made computer work less painful on my back, so I searched Amazon for a kneeling chair & found this one with the backrest (the backrest was more for my husband than me) for my home.
Having had experience with this type of chair previously made me prepared for the fact that you have to build up a tollerance for sitting in it. Because you have to use your abdominals & back muscles for support, most will find it uncomfortable on their shins for about a week or two, until your body becomes accustomed to placing your weight properly. Afterwards you will be able to sit for longer periods because you will learn to draw from your abdominals. The gentleman in the previous review stated that there isn't enough padding. I assure you that you will not be aware of this in a week or two. You will it has just the right amount. NO matter how much padding this chair has (or any other kneeling chair has), you will not be prepared to sit this way, so it will be your natural inclination to put most of your weight on your legs. Until you are get used to sitting in it properly, I recommend taking one leg off & placing it on the floor to give your shin a rest. Then replace it to the knee pad & remove the other shin to the floor. You can also add a pillow to the knee rest for a few days. You may want to have your previous chair available as you alternate too for small breaks. It seems like a lot of work, (afterall, no one has evet had to teach you to sit in an office chair) but your back will eventually thank you for the effort after a few weeks. I am a fitness instructor & personal trainer and I can tell you that even I have difficulty getting accustomed to this type of sitting at first. Like anything that requires effort, you will see the benefits outweigh the minor discomfort in the learning or acclimation process.
This is a very attractive chair, and it is as comfortable as I knew it would be given that it's only the 1st day that I'm using it. I purchased the back rest part only because I figured other people sitting in the chair might feel better knowing they could rest back. I like that natural wood finish & the blue pads. The back rest was purely a cosmetic issue for me, but not at all necessary. If I were buying it for myself, I wouldn't have cared if it had a backrest.
It arrived very promptly & in good condition. I will re-review the chair in a few weeks after my body gets re-accoustomed to sitting correctly.

Human Touch Leather Perfect Chair Recliner Zero Anti Gravity Lounger - RED PC-8 Review

Human Touch Leather Perfect Chair Recliner Zero Anti Gravity Lounger - RED PC-8
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

I needed this chair, I wanted this chair.
It was delivered perfectly in just a couple of days in perfect condition.
The leather while not a fine grade will do just fine and I'm sure will offer years of low maintenance use.
So what's the problem.
I'm a software engineer so after fumbling about a bit I invited my neighbor who can assemble *ANYTHING".
We got it 'somewhat' together although it doesn't appear that are mates to most of the Velcro tabs; the two major pieces don't really appear to be seated; and the headrest refuses to hold an adjustment.
The people at the BackStore gave me the number of the people at HumanTouch. After some hunting around they emailed me the instructions that we're pretty much what I received in the container. No luck.
I told the guy at HumanTouch that .. Hey ... all I want to do is get it working right and I'd be willing to pay for someone to come out and do the job right. He indicated that I'd probably wouldn't want to do that since the minimum charge was some $250.
I probably wouldn't have winced at $125 but this is ridiculous.
On small change stuff I have a long history of just swallowing the deal. Not this time. Tomorrow, I start running the traps to return this product that is either mis-manufactured or simply missing a 5 minute youTube assembly video.
This represents probably the only 2 star review I've ever written on in all my years with Amazon.
Tomorrow, I guess I start going through the world of hurt that will be involved in returning this almost 'Perfect Chair'. Too bad.
Regards,cb
