Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've had three of these "style" chairs in the past few years (they just don't last at this price point) and I swear, even though these are sold under different company names or sellers on amazon, these must ALL be made by the same general manufacturer in china. The pieces, the parts, the materials, all eerily similar from one chair to another.. the base, the arm handles, even the little plastic tabs over all the ones I've had over the years are virtually identical. The other two I've owned were OK (not great) the only issue with both, after a very specific determined time was the faux leather material starts peeling and disintegrating and then WATCH OUT. The stuff peels and goes EVERYWHERE, all over the house, all over your clothes, whatever you sit on it wearing.. I mean the stuff literally takes over your house, it's that bad! However...this was the only gripe I had about the first two chairs I owned. No other issues-comfortable, good adjustments, overall not a bad chair. NOW, this one, let me start by saying my two star rating is VERY generous. Basically, again, almost identical to the other two except in one BIG way. The material-same, cushioning-same, plenty of padding for comfort everywhere except where it counts the most, under your rear end, where you sit! No exaggeration here, believe me when I tell you this, absolutely NO padding or cushion! The most important part of a chair, the part of it where your rear end (and most of your weight) goes has virtually no cushioning! It's like sitting on a wooden bench. Two hours sitting on this and I get lower back pain! I'm a younger guy, I've never had back pain in my life..with this I do! Terrible, absolutely terrible. Now, what can I do, I can't return this. Once assembled there is no way to take one of these apart. That suspension gas piece-the one that allows the chair to move up and down, once you insert it into the lower base with the wheels, it bonds, permanently! It would take the jaws of life to get those two pieces apart. So there is absolutely no way to return this. I have to live with it. I put a pillow to cushion the part where I sit and after two weeks, that pillow is completely flattened because of how hard the base is where you sit. I don't write many negative reviews, I've maybe written one or two on hundreds of reviews, but this thing deserves a BIG thumbs down! Very disappointed, sorry. Do not buy!
