Balance Chair with Backrest,Kneeling Chair with Casters, Improve Sitting Posture with Adjustable Height & Angle, YDM-1458-2D

This is the worst kit I have gotten from Amazon so far. Between the ridiculously parse instructions and the terrible packaging, this kit is 100% god-awful. If you are trying out chairs and aren't totally certain that this is a keeper, don't do it because you will never get this thing back in the box to return it. That said, it's the best kneeling chair I've found. So... Yeah... Not sure what the point of this review is other than to vent the rage built up trying to screw the THREE separate pieces together that hold the back on while also not scratching the finish every time it slips off. Hint: use a drill/driver instead of that infernal allen key. I really hate that I like the chair. Did I mention the massive wing-nut that you have to manually adjust to set the tilt angle but that you can't really get to because it sits so tightly between two struts that it won't turn? It would be comical if the need to adjust it didn't come right after you realize you should have adjusted it before putting anything together; except you don't know what the adjustment should be until it's all built and you can try it out. Really.. it's a terrible kit. But a pretty solid chair with good padding.

Pros:-Padding is thick and firm on both seat and knee pads.-I love the that the angle of the seat is adjustable. This is a big deal. I had it wrong for the first couple days and had a little bit of lower back pain, but since I adjusted it, it's much better. Most of the chairs like this don't have that option and I'm glad this one does.- It prompts me to use better posture- Height adjustability works well and sets me up perfectly for my desk height.-The foot rests swivel (maybe because I didn't tighten them enough), but I like them that way.-Once you get this thing set up for your size/height, preferences, it's great.--The backrest is nice... it's far enough back that it's not used most of the time, but it's nice to have when leaning back for a stretch. Also, I haven't tipped over yet when doing this, so that's good!Cons:-I didn't find the assembly instructions very helpful. There was a QR code for a video that might have been more helpful, but I didn't bother. The written ones were not great, though.-Two wheels have wheel locks. I don't really care, but the locking mechanisms on these have some rather sharp pieces of metal right above the wheels that could easily hurt toes if not careful.-I could only get 3/4 screws to line up when mounting the footpad assembly to the frame, but the fourth one wasn't really necessary so it wasn't a factor.-The backrest is nice... it's far enough back that it's not used most of the time, but it's nice to have when leaning back for a stretch. Also, I haven't tipped over yet when doing this, so that's good!Overall, I'm a fan, especially for the price. The kids also think it's great and enjoy the alternative sitting position for homework and drawing. Give it a try!

Chair went together pretty painless. Pictures on the instructions are alright but combine them with the photo from the listing and you shouldn’t have any issues.Unfortunately my kit was missing the parts to lock in the seat angle. Looks like the wing nut and whatever bar or bolt is supposed to go about between the spaces in the third picture.Will try to source them and update review once I’ve used the chair properly.Update: returning the chair. Was able to add a wedge under the seat to fix the angle but found the chair uncomfortable compared the the Amazon basics rocking kneeler.

The instructions for this chair didn't include the correct assembly for the seat, nor did it include instructions for attaching the housing to keep the hydraulics off the floor. Not everyone can purchase this chair together.

I like the chair but there are some faults with it. 1. The foot supports move no matter how tight I make the bolts. 2. Some places where there should be bolts there are no holes. 3. The instructions are some what helpful but you will find you may have to take a few pieces apart because there wasn’t clear instructions on what to do. And lastly 4. There are only brakes on 2 of the 4 wheels so the chair will still move. Special Note: Have a second person to help support the metal frame. This is a game changer. I started by myself. I had to leave it for a day because I was getting so frustrated trying to assemble the thing.

This kneeling chair is stylish and good quality. Sitting with my knees bent isn’t for me all day because I’m a bit too short and my knees get tired. The directions can be confusing but this brand has good customer service and will help you.
