OFM ESS Collection Plush Microfiber Office Chair, Mid-Back, Brown

I bought four of these to use with my gaming table - arrived within two days with Amazon Prime. To save space I lower them to the lowest setting when not in use and they fit under my game table which has an edge 26.5 inches above the floor with about an inch to spare. (Please see the picture - table and dachshund were not included in the shipment.) The chairs are comfortable and appear to be of good quality.They are relatively easy to assemble. An Allen wrench comes with the chairs and is the only tool need to install 4 bolts to be inserted in each arm (8 bolts total); and 4 bolts to hold the seat assembly on the bottom of the seat. Five casters need to insert in the plastic base, and the center tube dropped into the plastic base - with the last task to set the seat on the tube in the base. I believe that's easiest done by raising the plastic base with the casters and tube and guiding it onto the seat cushion assembly which you'll want to turn upside down.An instruction diagram comes with the chair and was sufficient for me. Assembly should take less than 30 minutes including unpacking. The main thing to observe when bolting on the arms is that you press the arms down over the recesses in the cushions and ensure that the holes are centered before inserting the bolts. You should be able to initially tighten the bolt with your fingers - but afterward they will be hard to tighten with the Allen wrench get easier (you many think you've stripped the threads) then as they are fully tight hard to tighten again. Don't fully tighten the bolts until you have each arm mounted on each cushion.

I'm very happy with this chair! Sturdy, not too small, I like the microfiber, looks nice. I put it together by myself, I found it easier to lay the back and seat on the side, lay the armrest on top to line up the bolts. Attach one bolt on each part so they're combined, then finish the others. I did have to push and pull a little to get two of the holes to line up. I loosened the others to get a little more wiggling room. It does not lean too far forward for me, and it's comfortable! Good chair for the price!

The chair is good quality, very comfy to sit in and easily moves. The color is a nice dark taupe. My only issue is the assembly. I'm really good at putting things together, but this chair really tested my patience. The pre-drilled screw were messed up, so it took forever to get the screws in. Also, the arms are what hold the back of the chair and the bottom of the chair together....BAD DESIGN! Most chairs I've put together, the back of the chair attaches to the bottom of the seat, making it easier to put on the arms. I struggled with the weight of the arms and the bottom and back of chair while trying to get the screws in. Add to that, the pre-drilled screw holes weren't working too well. Once the chair was together, seating in it has been heaven! Very cushy for the body. I've had the chair for three weeks, so can't attest to it's durability. If anything goes wrong, I'll post another review. All-in-all, the chair is worth the money I paid, even with it's poor design to assemble.

I have had the chair for a month or so, and am very pleased with it. It is a very basic, yet comfortable chair that is perfect for a little corner desk area. It was pretty easy to assemble with the included tools and instructions. Be advised the fabric is sort of a velvety suede, which I expect to catch some dirt over time, so it needs to be in a clean environment. The chair's arms are also clad in this material, thus I expect for them to show wear from contact from one's arms. Overall, it serves my light usage very well.

I just purchased this OFM Essentials Collection Mid Back Plush Microfiber Office Chair in Brown. At first, I was going to pay the $49 to have it assembled for me, but after watching the video of Richard demonstrating how to put this chair together, it gave me more confidence. He was great, went through each step, and had a lot of patience. There should be more videos like this one.Now as far as the chair itself, I love it!! In fact, I just purchased a second chair in this rich brown color and I will put this one together as I did the first one. This chair is very comfortable and soft to the touch with nice padded arm rests. It goes up and down easily and the casters make it very easy to roll on the floor. It makes a beautiful statement in our office.

I have had my chair for about 2 weeks. Nicely cushioned, the fabric is soft; Not exactly the best, regarding *manufacturing*, tho... when reading (bad) reviews, I noticed that there were some people that were complaining about how the chair *TILTS FORWARD*--- MINE *Also* DID THIS, (and the hardware not lining up on one arm - seems to be a regular problem when assembling this item) ... But i really did NOT want to go thru the hassle of taking the chair apart sending it back and searching for another chair.... it was the FORWARD TILT that really bothered me. SO, what my husband did -- **AND *YOU* SHOULD ALSO TRY THIS, IF YOU ALSO HAVE THIS ISSUE!!** -- is REVERSE THE BASE OF THE CHAIR!!! Once my husband took the base off and *Reversed* it, the chair felt SO MUCH BETTER, to me! It *Does*, of course, choose to tilt more *Backwards* now, like a reclining chair, but not too far (not mine anyway), Which *I* actually like.So if you get this chair, and it tilts forward, and you don't like it, try reversing the BASE first! ; Mine feels great, once i did THAT..*BUT*!! .... you shouldn't HAVE to DO THIS!! BAD manufacturing, and i'm glad I've got a smart, handy guy that could figure this dilemma out before the hassle of returning the damn thing. So that's why I only gave 3 stars.But once the problem was remedied, I have found this to be a pretty comfy chair, for the PRICE, you really can't beat it, b/c i did NOT want to spend $200 on a f'in ofc. chair :PSo, take what you will from this review, Hope it helps. *OVERALL*..., not a bad buy, I think. I hope it lasts, but only time will tell.

The chair looks great and is very comfortable.

Really like the chair for the price and it's comfortable. I couldn't get one of the bolts in on the bottom of the chair (tried to loosen the other bolts). It still works but it makes a noise when I move sometimes. Still recommend it.
