HON basyx by Task Chair, Fabric, High-Back Swivel/Tilt

For the around 150 dollars I paid for this chair it's great. A ton of versatility great back and lumbar support breathable and easy to sit in. It has height adjust as well as lumbar adjustment. Amazing build quality and maneuverability for the price. All in all great value and I would highly reccomend especially if you can get it for the price I did.

This is a great chair and goes together nice. There was only one issue I found and that is the metal brace that connects to the bottom part under the seat that comes up and around and holds the back support frame and pad had a design issue that tilted the back support forward. I have seen this kind of issue before when manufactures/ companies try to use the same metal parts for a number of different chair models - so they don't totally fit together correctly. I was able to fix this issue by adding two washer to two different screws that allowed the metal parts to align correctly - it added about an 1/8 inch of spacer to each one. Most people might not see this issues but I am a design engineer so things like this stand out to me. Be ready for some noise that comes from the chair seat when you first get off the seat pad. It kind of sounds like a bunch of plastic bags unfolding all at once. Its not crazy bad. The sound has now gone away after a few days but at first bothered me thinking it would always do that. I am sitting in this chair as I write this review. I really like the chair and it is worth the money big time. Thanks, Greg from Wisconsin

I bought this chair back in 2019 and using it daily since while working from home. It works great and is very comfortable. It doesn't go up quite as high as some other chairs but it works perfectly for me (5'7" = 170 cm). Not sure if this changed since but if you're very tall, make sure to check the specs on this. The reason for 4 stars vs 5 is the padded armrests. It is a very nice feature. I have joint problems and resting my elbows comfortably is important (this is something I dislike in other chairs with hard plastic armrests). Unfortunately, the right armrest cracked after about 1.5 years of use. We fixed the crack as we could with some glue and epoxy but you can see in the picture now there is a second crack right in the middle. The crack edges are sharp, so the armrest is now very uncomfortable and scratchy. The left armrest (second picture) developed a "bump" but, thankfully, has not cracked. I would expect much more durability from an office chair, all materials included.

This chair is a nice upgrade from the previous desk chair that I used for about 20 years. It was really easy to assemble, in about 15 minutes. The chair is heavier than my last one and it was fun carrying it upstairs to my office. I think it will be there for a while.

Lightweight but sturdy and very comfortable
