DO NOT BUY. Extremely uncomfortable. Rigid, sharp edge just under padding, presses into spine around mid-lower back.
Possibly the least comfortable chair I've ever owned. There's what feels like a sharp, rigid edge, just underneath the upper padding (picture the edge of a piece of plywood) running across the back, roughly at the level of the seam in the middle of the back. The padding is completely inadequate and does not even cover the structural material of the chair. Sitting in this thing for an hour means back pain. After two weeks of using this chair, my back HURTS. For what it's worth, I'm not a big person. I'm 5'10 and 140 pounds. I don't usually have problems finding reasonably comfortable, supportive chairs. If you are large, or if you have a specific medical need for an ergonomic chair with back support... Or, if you're breathing. If you can read this, you need to avoid the AmazonBasics Mid-Back Office Chair.
